The D looks better, but as I told you, this team is not built to play in the slop. Ben has never valued the football. He's like Favre in that sense. Sloppy weather magnifies it as risky passes are more likely to be off target, or slip through the receiver's hands. Six turnovers would have equaled a loss against most other teams, so they're lucky to get that tie.Great talent on O. Cronyism in the OC, not a great idea, we'll see if it doesn't thwart them.
D gets after QBs (against bad teams) better than past years. But secondary shaky, poor against the run, LBs tend to disappear.
Punter is awful. Again.
Kicker was a strength... now that he has big money, will he keep focus?
It's still a solid contender but the D and propensity to blow some games against unworthy teams obviously is a trend continuing.
losing to the hapless browns. Lol

While the tie seems like a loss, just look at it from the Clowns side of things. They get 6 turnovers and still can't beat the Steelers?losing to the hapless browns. Lol

Big Ben made fun of Rudolph and said he was his favorite reindeer. If Rudolph played today the Steelers win. Getting tired of Ben’s bone headed playing and all the stupid things he does at times.losing to the hapless browns. Lol

Jesus the hyperbole on this Pittboard is high[/QUOTE
Don’t you know that the season is over after one game and the head coach should be fahhhred
While the tie seems like a loss, just look at it from the Clowns side of things. They get 6 turnovers and still can't beat the Steelers?
Worst Steeler team since the 60's? Please stop
If you are comparing these two, then surely you are the one who is confused.Is this the worst Steelers team since the late 60s
But a great Hall of Fame coach? LOL!
Not sure who's more confused Tomlin or Narduzzi?
It's one game in heavy rain and they didn't lose, they're still Super Bowl contenders, it's not like we're talking about Pitt.losing to the hapless browns. Lol

When he goes, Rudolph does no better than 7-9 with luck.Big Ben made fun of Rudolph and said he was his favorite reindeer. If Rudolph played today the Steelers win. Getting tired of Ben’s bone headed playing and all the stupid things he does at times.
But the melt down and ripping of Pitt is 110% VALID.Sarcasm alert. Just mocking all the goofballs with their over the top melt down over Pitt’s loss. The JM2 and Hacket references were full moron
They're going to SUCK for several years when he goes, 7-9s, 6-10s, write it down.Careful what you wish for, Ben is one of the reasons this team is in the playoff hunt every year. Without him, we might go back to the Bubby Brister years and they might last a while. Give these young backups time to get good before ya wish Big Ben was gone.
No, absolutely not.
I’d have to check if a team was ever -6 in turnovers in a NFL and not lost the game.
I’d be surprised if this isn’t a first!
Please accept my apology. There are many people online who will believe this stuff. Believe me this was a very hard football weekend for me to watch and attendSarcasm alert.

We are closer to Hackett then you care to admit, mocking you actually
I seem to remember Curtis Martin and Rueben Brown coming in on Hackett's watch. The rest of the roster was meh, for sure. That said, I doubt Narduzzi is bringing in any Hall of Famers here.Recruiting is about where it was under Hackett, maybe a little worse.
