Steelers vs. Bengals (week 2)

signs of life...signs of death...that's what this team is showing me right now.

defense brings life, offense leads to death.

10 pts, 8 minutes, in years past I would say, Not a problem...

tonight....it's a problem.

need to sustain a drive ending with a score, and then have the defense even the turnover ratio

and how many times have we seen those stats where the other team has a higher time of possession than us?

keep movin' the chains boys.

WOW! I'm surprised at that call. Typically that goes the other way.  

Paulson hangs on to it! WOO HOO!

Drive it down boys.

you don't need the TD immediately, get that first down if you need to, especially if they are giving it up.

Great job by Foster stopping Sanders from getting an unnecessary penalty.

Again, Ben throwing behind and over the WR...

Anyone else notice since Ben got married, he hasn't been the same...just sayin'  

Ladies and Gentlemen this season is starting to be one of great concern....I know it's only the second week but our offense has a split personality and our defense won't last if our offense can't sustain drives and put up more than 10 points a game.

and to have our defense over powered like that on a running play...that is the game tonight.

Yes I realize they've had slow starts in other seasons.....but this team looks rotten. There I've said it. At this point, I'm just hoping we win one of the games against the Ravens and they don't hammer us to the point of embarrassment.

stoopid penalty by Woodley

lost 4 of 5 ending last season
lost 4 pre-season games
and starting the season 0-2
1-11 is not a good stat...and I know people say it (I say it), that the pre-season doesn't count, but it does.

it's not a pleasant thought, but is it possible the Steelers end up with a top 10 draft pick?

well, tomorrow's run is going to hurt with the lack of sleep this game has cost me.

at least Ben can make the score respectable, but it certainly has not been a respectable performance.

well, so be it.

think about this, it's only the 3rd time Ben has lost in the state of Ohio. I know you can't win them all, but damn at least put forth a full 60 minutes of effort.

Unfortunately there hasn't been enough time to improve the synchronicity of the Steelers game in one week.  Plus we still don't have Heath back.  We drop another one here, 27-10 Bengals.   

I was off by a score that the bengals probably should have had. The team has no identity and Haley is the most worthless excuse for a coach I've ever seen. The sub package call after the obvious Paulson fumble while Ben was rushing them to the line was unforgivable. Sure Paulson shouldn't have dropped it, but after it happened Ben was trying to fix it and Haley fucked it up. This guy is a joke and I am embarrassed that he is on the team. We will be getting a top 10 draft pick next year and Haley will be gone is all I am looking forward to at this point.
