MNF.... PTG at CIN
-
They have certainly cracked the door open for us.
Next week......Pitt hosts Colts, a very good team. Pitt could lose badly if they continue to play like this against a much better team than they faced tonight. Browns at Jets....a very bad team (but cannot get cocky...that bad team just went on the road and beat the Rams who were 9-4).
And then there would be that final game. Wouldn't it be fresh for both to go into it 11-4
-
To be fair, there was a bad missed PI that should have been called on Cincy that would have put Pitt into scoring range to possibly tie....but not called.
Of course, those are usually the kinds of calls that go in Pitt's favor.

Good point. Just seems we get screwed on a more regular basis.

Ryan Finley goes 30 yards untouched to sprinkle some tasty spice on the Upset Pot Roast.
I did actually think he would be a decent backup - 5th overall QB in the 2019 class, next one after Murray/Haskins/drew Lock/daniel Jones. Picked in the 4th, projected as high as second round. Yes, panthers picked Grier bottom of the third, but ignore drunken GMs because Grier is currently behind the guy they signed from the XFL.
And not that anyone payed any attention to this game - but Bengals WR Boyd was so shocked Finley was starting that he was out with a concussion.

I hate these kind of threads.
There are bad calls, forget about conspiracies. Steelers get their share of bad calls too.

If you were to go back to 1970...and before like some of us (I go back to like 1963 with the Browns).....you would be fully aware that since the 70s the Steelers have by far gotten more that their "fair" share of the calls. Do they get some bad calls? Surely they do.....and I will discontinue calling you Shirley if you would like. But I would suspect the ratio is easily 2-1 in their favor. Ask any of the other old farts around here.

I can't believe I'm saying it BUT I think 7 might be washed. He isnt seeing the field, his deep ball is off. The wheels have fallen off the bus for this team and I don't see them fixing it. Injuries are now comical and the offensive woes are real. I was all aboard the Ben for another couple but after this stretch even tho 3 games in 12 days is total bs I've got one foot off the train.
Ben tonight is as bad as I've ever seen him. Horrific.

My sympathy on the injuries. Didn't watch the 1st half, but did the second. Your mighty defensive front was getting gashed- even playing 7-8 in the box- helpless to stop a not so great Bungle offense gash you 5-10 yards at a crack. Then Finley does a Jackson like romp into the end zone. Game on the line- Ben tossed a few clunkers...
Your waltz to the playoffs is officially derailed. Could go from 11-0 to a wild card team. The Colts and the Browns will have everything to play for the next two weeks, and they're both are significantly better than the Bengals...
I thought Cincinnati had zero chance, but then again neither did the Jets against the Rams. As Boomer says "that's why they play the games."
Power Rankings in a few hours should be real interesting.
-
Well well. Wasn't that an interesting outcome....
But it doesn't change the fact that we Must beat the Jets.
-
No. For sure. But it DOES bring thing to a real interesting point if we do. And I sure don't see Stefanski or this team taking anyone lightly.
Not a chance. Not with the Division and a home playoff game potentially on the line. Um, maybe too early to count chickens- but I sure will next week with a Colts & Browns win. The impossible dream as recently as a couple weeks ago. How would the Browns distribute playoff tickets?
-
Omg just saw how it's going. Could someone sum it up?
The Steelers fumbled, bumbled, and stumbled into a 17-0 hole in the first half. Then the Bengals did just enough in the 2nd half running out the clock to win the game. Ben a big 19 yards passing in the first half- hows that for suck?

"DO YOU BELIEVE IN MIRACLES" lol
really great to watch the Bengals force the squealer offense to implode.
I didn't know Finley would fool them and run like that. That should drop tomlin out of the head coach of the year running.
steeler wr's ...when a game is on the line, they always create incidental contact, and try to get the pi. Then when they don't... they are not happy. This officiating crew didn't fall for it.
