Dear friends,

It was a tough loss. But please don't fall from the roof of your houses just yet.
S##t happens. And please, don't try to over analyze why we lost. It meant to be.
It is what it is. No time for blame games. Look at the bright side. Big Ben
still keeps true to his progression. During the regular season I predicted
playoffs loss as per Big Ben's cycles.
So here it is once again:

2004 Playoffs loss
2005 SB win
2006 No Playoffs

2007 Playoffs loss
2008 SB win
2009 No Playoffs

2010 Playoffs loss
2011 --> hopefully SB win

See, its Big Ben's cycles. And nothing can be about it. Besides, Take a lesson
from John Elway. He lost his first 3 trips to SB and won the last 2 trips. So,
Elway visited the playing grounds of Superbowl 5 times. Big Ben is not 30 yet.
So plenty of times to repeat in SB wins, hopefully.

Another bright side would be, next year (if there will be a next year) our
offensive line would be better as we'll get Pouncey's brother. Our wide
receivers will be more mature etc. etc.

The third bright side is - our team wasn't blown out in the Superbowl as many
teams do. We had a strong and resilient team this year.

So please, with sugar on top, don't jump from the roof just yet.

With best regards,

Bonek

There are lots of people to blame

A defense who didn’t step up, Wallace and Roethlisberger playing their worst games of the season. The Steelers didn’t play such a great game that the Packers were just better. There is lots of blame to go around.

People don't ever seem to realize that doing what's right is no guarantee against misfortune.

it sucks

but then again our team just played in the Superbowl, If you were to poll all the NFL fans in the country, how many would sell a kidney to see their favorite team play in the championship game?

If the Steelers had to lose this game, I am at least somewhat consoled by the fact that it was to the Packers.
