Quite an impressive drive by Baltimore to close the half. This is two good teams going at it. Pittsburgh ball at about the 10 minute mark of the 3rd.
Let's go Pittsburgh. AFC North title in sight.

oh man
?!? the zebras are back – so its to tackle silverback when he’s in your backfield about to sack you- but if Ray Lewis slips going for the tackle then its a hold.

Helmets
I always notice during games against other teams with black helmets that their helmets are really shiney and ours look like crap, a dull sheen at best…

We need a new freaking o-line this is getting insane

We can’t even run, our line is sub average at best…maybe it’s the line coach

That should be our first draft pick next year, o lineman, the draft is going to be deep with them so why not.

So that has happened all year long I guess, and yeah i know there have been a bunch were ben has held on to long, but that first sack by lewis is a prime example of the miscues

we know the lines not great
Thats not a news flash. But everytime a sack happens, dont need to just throw up ones hands and say the line sucks.

He was standing behind the linemen trying to prop him up – didn’t anticipate the delayed blitz

Looking for the big play is messing things up
BB loves to go deep. That’s all fine and good.
BUT DINK AND DUNK IF YOU HAVE TO!!!
Jeez.
Most of the time BB has the 2 seconds to make a throw.

True
He really has been blowing it though – he misses the fair catch – sinks in the hole and then kills us with the weak fumble….not impressive – he really needs to turn it around

that he was playing too fast. he’s been getting caught up in yapping with the thugs. Not playing his game. Needs to settle the fuck down and do his job.

Neither offense is good enough
To make a legitimate run.
My best game plan is to sit on the bench and call out specific instructions like 'C'mon Boog,' 'Get ahold of one, Frank,' or 'Let's go, Brooks.' -Earl Weaver

regardless of the outcome
I still like this team a lot. It wasnt a given that wed be able to bang with them in their house and have a shot to win. We’ve gotten dusted in this situation in previous years.

Hey
If you can drive the field and score a touchdown then you’re the better team.
My best game plan is to sit on the bench and call out specific instructions like 'C'mon Boog,' 'Get ahold of one, Frank,' or 'Let's go, Brooks.' -Earl Weaver

Your defense is sick
so is Baltimore’s, but they don’t have enough O. I said after the Giants beat you guys that I felt like if we made it to the SB we’d be facing you again, and nothing I’ve seen since then has changed my mind. Tennessee is wildly overrated.

"Tennessee is wildly overrated."
Agreed. Look at how soft their schedule is. Compare it to ours.

congrats steelers nation
i think somehow everyone of us knew today no matter what, we were going to win.
i know blitz has commented on the up and down and generally negativity of emotions in the gameday threads. but i think its been due to the fact that this unusual season has been a roller coaster for fans. im not seeing that anymore. we just had to get used to how the steelers are going to win games this year. everyone has faith now. everyone is excited. everyone knows no matter what, we are gonna win.
next up, titans and the battle for number one seed!!
