I see the opposite. Steelers usually luck out and get young ineffective QBs and rattle them. Flacco is a guy who should pick us apart.

The deep official had main responsibility for that receiver and he thought the second foot didn’t drag from his angle. That’s why he came down and made the call that he did. TV showed it from the other angle that he didn’t have.
The worst call all game was the roughing the passer against the Colts in which Fields was getting sacked. That was a bad call.

Fields is starting to develop a propensity for finding the pressure in the pocket rather than throwing the football.
It was the right call by rule. It was obvious live. But again, sometimes a whistle should be swallowed.
As dominant as any team in Pittsburgh sports history. The 76 Steelers and 93 Penguins come to mind. Both of those teams were historically dominant, and then lost in the post season.
Muth is a terrible blocker but at least he’s a threat in the… oh, never mind.
I didn't like that call, and others like it, but no matter what Gene Steratore says, it is against the rules in the current NFL for a defender to sack a quarterback like that and put his whole weight down on the QB without at least trying to minimize the contact.
It's a dumb rule, but it is, in fact, the rule.
Gene will side with the officials when in doubt. If Gene calls it out, then you know it was a bad call.
I thought he reestablished control and then got touched while his elbow was down. But I don't know that it's obvious enough to overturn it. And I also don't care.
I hate to bring last year into this, but one of Pickett's weak points was turning himself right into the pass rush when he got pressured. Fields has spent the whole game doing just that.
Kenny would have turned into a sack 10 yards closer to the line of scrimmage and he wouldn’t have fumbled. Lol.
No - you would be wrong. You are just a homer. That was a clean sack.
This is the thing. They couldn’t win all the games kenny started. But a 65-70% winning % wasn’t good enough for fans and media.
