    So, you're saying the Steelers aren't a talented squad?

    Yeah I read what you posted. So how much would you attribute bad officiating this season to the Steelers sitting at 8-6-1? When you answer that question, please include how bad officiating helped the Steelers as well.

    On the topic I don't think the ref's are beating the Steelers the Steelers have been beating themselves most of the season.

    Poor time management, poor ball control, poor play calling offensively and defensively dropped passes, missed assignments ,fumbles.

    Every team makes mistakes and calls go both ways but this year the Steelers have effed up at the worst possible times in too many games.

    On the Haden PI I saw it as a very bad call and if the game was called that closely it would be un-playable. Later when we got the same type of call go our way it looked like an even it up call even the announcers saw it that way. The difference was theirs gave them first and goal from the one, ours gave us a first down at our 34.

    I don't think its fixed or believe in any crazy conspiracies I think some refs are just not very good at their jobs and some make more bad calls then others.

    Refs are human and they either make mistakes or are biased. The problem I have is that the league doesn’t own up to it. I don’t believe they said anything about that cluster of a game w/San Diego. By not doing so, it gives the refs a green light to continue to be mediocre

    The refs are bad but they make bad calls for everyone. The players put themselves in position to lose the game on bad calls. The players on defense in particular are average or worse players. Name a defensive standout. Cam? Barely! Certainly not Watt. He is only a tad better than average.

    They aren't as talented as some fans make them out to be, nobody on that defense made the Pro Bowl, or will be All-Pro.

    You really should get your facts straight before you post. Cameron Heyward named to the Pro Bowl this year. He was also an All-Pro last season.

    Clearly your anger has gotten the better of you given that false assessment of Watt.

    I never did ask what you taught. Apparently, it's creative writing.

    I know he made All-Pro last season duh, I didn't pay much attention to announcement last week of the Pro Bowl. Besides Heyward was deserving of the Pro Bowl last season, this season not so much, he made it off of last season stats. The only player on defense who might be deserving of Pro Bowl this season is Watt.

    I teach English, so that is a part of it. Of course, the best creative writing involves an element of truth.

    Please try again. The appropriate response was to thank me for pointing out your factual error. You claimed that the Steelers' defense does not have any Pro Bowl players this year. That is factually incorrect. I do agree that Watt is worthy. He's just at a tough position to make it.

    As does a sense of humor.

    I'm sure you're a great teacher and your kids are fortunate to be under your tutelage.

    It's amazing how our receivers can get mauled running down the field and can't draw a flag. Our corner backs lay a finger on a receiver ...flags are everywhere ...these games are fixed
