Twitter reactions to Steelers loss at Cincinnati

There is, of course, the smartass...

The steelers offense is so electric

This is followed often by some kind of acknowledgement that misery loves company.

You know you live near Cleveland when the news takes more time to talk about the Steelers lose than all the Cleveland teams combined!

Focusing on game-related tweets, though, it appears James Harrison had less to do with this game than initially anticipated.

James Harrison was in for only 14 of 57 snaps against his old team

You really do need to start to worry about the frustration that's bound to set in. Although it's hard to agree this is entirely Todd Haley's fault, Roethlisberger threw some very poor passes Monday, and many of them came from clean pockets.

Haley-Roethlisberger situation will get worse. Saw more frustration out of Ben then ever before tonight. Shame to waste such a great QB.

At least Sky Bayless isn't giving up on the Steelers...so they've got THAT goin' for them...which is nice.

I'm still not writing off the Steelers and I'm still not completely sold on Andy Dalton as the long-term answer in Cincy.

Or maybe coddling Roethlisberger is the thing to do now, who knows?

It's very hard to see how anyone can give Roethlisberger a pass in that game. His interception was a poorly thrown pass, he missed receivers deep all night and whether the offensive line had given him the protection of an Iraqi security company in the past is beside the point; he had a chance to lead this team to a win last night, and he once again failed to do it. Hasn't done it in quite a while, actually.
