    Ben was washed at this point but in a playoff game they punted in their first 6-7 possessions, the defense did their job early on in that game.

    Pzit talking out of his ass again, because reading comprehension isn't your strong suit. I never said that about LeBeau.

    The problem was the lack of urgency the Steelers had at the start of this game and the arrogance of the coaching staff and some players, like Le'Veon Bell and Mike Mitchell. The playcalling was also god awful on offense during the first two drives of the game—too many screens on the first drive and two runs in the middle on the second drive to put us in a 3rd and 11.They had 2 weeks to prepare for that game....And Ben wanted to play in the final week of the season but did not play and he was a bit rusty to start the game against the number 1 pass defense

    Yes, on the 3rd and 11, Ben threw a bad interception, but what makes you think the Steelers defense would have prevented the Jaguars from scoring a touchdown if it had been a punt, especially since the Jaguars had such an easy touchdown drive on the first drive?

    And even in the other games, yes, our offense was awful in some of those games, but that doesn't excuse our sorry defense, which had so many awful playoff performances for six straight playoffs games before the Texans game that I'm going to give them a pass since Houston had two defensive touchdowns and the defense keep it close for a very long time even if Stroud's meltdown helped.

    Hargrave to the Packers, 2 yrs/$23M. Pack believes he still has something to his game.

    I think it's crazy that it's only been 6 seasons since he left the Steelers. Feels like forever ago.
