but I’m not willing to throw the Terrible Towel in just yet. The Bengals beat us today. Shit happens. There is still football to be played. Can’t spend too much time basking in the glory of the wins and can’t get stuck and wallow in the defeats. New game Sunday.

Defense was superb at times today. Can’t blame them. They stepped up multiple times in the second half and our offense had no answer. The only thing you could say is on that last drive when Deebo and Timmons pulled some bonerific plays, and even then the D held the Bengals to a FG. It’s the second straight week that they haven’t allowed and offensive TD. This loss goes squarely on the backs of the entire offensive execution and gameplanning and the ST.

If you questioned the Steelers’ offensive consistency last week, you were being a gloomy Gus. But there it was for all the world to see against the Bengals today. Cincy has a good and improving defense—but not nearly as good as we made them look. Arians should tear up his playbook and start over.

Bengals D is just better. We came away from our game feeling like we played poorly too. After watching your game everyone just needs to give it up to the Bengals. They made us play the way we played. We didn’t show up 1/2 asleep or unprepared. The Bengals no name D is pretty quick and Marvin has them mixing it up. Ben was lost. Flacco sucked until the 4th quarter.

Jeff Reed oughta give his game check to a Charity after his faggy ballarina impression. Fxckin embarrassing.

= L thanks Jeff reed the little punk sissy. (i dont care,anybody else )

… but today’s loss is on him for the most part. With that in mind I’ll take his mistakes any day. Coz I respect the guy and he’s pretty darn talented and he has 2 rings to show for it.

But with coach Tomlin’s voice I can say these words after today’s game:

“The Great players’ needs to be humbled from time to time… "

Cocky Brady got humbled today,
Great Peyton got humbled in 2005 AFC championship game,
Brett Favre, Joe Montana, John Elway and all the other great QBs had this kind of performances as Big Ben had this sunday.

No big deal as long as this would be a learning experience for Big Ben. Sometimes, ONE person just cannot carry the whole offense on his shoulders. Big Ben tried to do a lot today… but came up short.

The only thing I disliked most about today’s game was the fact that Big Ben and our WRs didn’t look through the aerial pictures of their in-game performances and didn’t try to understand and correct them. When I watched Monday night football Peyton always was with these pics talking to his WRs. However, unfortunately for us, each time our QB just stayed on the field waiting for another opportunity.

too many holes in our game! Defense played well? Joking, right In critical spots yesterday, we let the bengals hold the ball for 4 minutes on their final drive..Last year, we got teams off the field..BTW, BA is horrible! Where was the no huddle??? do u think we will beat baltimore without troy? They will smell blodd in the water…Thats why I say, we are looking at third place, out of the playoffs..

This felt very much like that loss in Philly last year. A decent performance nets a win, but they jut played badly all over the place. The only concerning thing for me is they almost always play these kinds of clunkers on the road. It’s pretty unusual to not show up at home.

There is no doubt they’ve put themselves in a very difficult position regarding the division title. Cincy’s schedule doesn’t help. But the Steelers still have the inside track on the #1 wild card. They just can’t lay another egg like this one.

and the coaching…have they had the team ready to play for 60 minutes 1 time this year?…when all the talent is present and fails to perform I blame Tomlin
