Colts vs Steelers Full Game- October 26, 2014

Ben with one of the best game for a QB in NFL history!

 

Terrible defense, we gave up 34. Now the one that damn near killed me was the 2006 Playoff game. About 20 of us and no one was drunk enough to be calm.

 

This was when Roethlisberger had back to back 6 TD games vs. Colts and Ravens. Steelers in their typical method of operation during the Tomlin era... played down to the lowly Jets with Vick at QB and were completely annihilated after those two awesome games.

 

The game against the jets was one of the most frustrating games ever...One of Todd Haley's worst games with us...I mean, the jets had a very weak secondary and a very good d-line in 2014 but instead of attacking that secondary, the steelers wanted to establish the running game when it wasn't needed in that game and Haley had called so many screens to start the game...I mean, Roethlisberger started 9-11 for only 24 yards!

Of course, when they were down 17-0, it was too late and the 4 turnovers were one when it was 10-0 on a fumble by AB I think on another stupid screen and the other 3 turnovers were when they were down 14-17 points and they had to force things but it didn't work....Of course, putting James Harrison on offense in the red zone as a blocker was also so stupid....this loss was 100% on the coaching

 

The loss to the Jets also cost the Steelers seeding in the playoffs. Patriots always seemed to benefit in playoff seeding from the Steelers tanking games against terrible teams. Happened every year in the post-SBXLV Ben era.... at least twice, sometimes more.

 

And the loss to the Jets wasn't the worst in 2014 for the Steelers...Remember they lost to a 2-14 Bucs team at home, who had lost like 56-14 the game before and when the Steelers were up 24-20 with 2 minutes left with the ball, the play calling was run-run-run punt to put the game in our hands from our worst defense since 1988....It was such a genius idea

 

Mike Glennon had like 3 career wins and 2 of them were against us.

 

Ben had 12 TD's after 2 games. Our 3 QB's combined to throw 13 last season in 17 games.

 

And they had only 12 TD pass in the entire season in 2022!

The steelers offense were so unwatchable in each of the last 3 seasons under Matt Canada....I am hopeful it will change this year

 

The other vs Glennon was because the steelers defense could not stop the run in the entire game in Chicago in 2017
