To me , this is a sign of a good team, a team that will compete and possibly go to a super bowl.  We were awful on D except in the red zone, on O Ben was way off, we had huge dropped passes, yet we made enough plays on D and O to win.  These guys fought and played there asses off, I'll take this and not bitch, lol,

Rogers drops a TD pass. Ben overthrows how many passes? A bogus PI call on AB in the endzone. Yeah our defensive coverage was soft all game but we stiffened when we had to.
Haley needs to call the game like we're behind. Go for the throat and not let up until the bell.
Like I said in the other thread. This was one game I thought we'd loose so I'll take an ugly win all day.

I loved seeing the lack of PI calls during the game. The WR and CB both hand battling for the ball going up the field. That was great. The PI on Brown was crap. They weren't calling anything till that point.

I wouldn't have minded the call had AB come in with his hands close to his chest, but he had his hands out from him before he even got to the defender. Definitely a BS call. Like in 05, we're going to have to overcome adversity to win #7.

as long as the Steelers don't hit a bump in the road with the way the defense has been playing they can ride this defense to a Superbowl win.

would really like a superbowl win this year so Ben can retire a winner.

Yeah honestly I think Ben at this point in his career is at his best just managing the game and not trying to do too much. If they make it to the SB, it's going to be on the legs of Bell and the defense keeping them in the game.
