Wow harrison was getting double teamed and double choked. How is helmet doesn't come off more often is beyone me. This is insane.
These refs really sucked.
Either way

Watching this game, Big Ben seemed to be very spot on, and fast with his reads.
Bad t hings where it seemed all the steelers receivers and rb's had bad footing. Also the receivers just couldn't make the big catches when needed. Also the o-line gave ben enough time on the short passes, and he seemed to at least make it to his third read most of the time.
The biggest issue was not enough ward on 3rd down, he kept going to holmes and washington who seemed to have dropsies. They where getting open, but they just couldn't stay in bounds or hold the ball.
Also I forgot miller was out for this game. If be looks at ward or miller (they can catch) then this game could be a blowout.
And wow Harrison was held so very bad, when he beats someone on the corner and his arm is getting stretched out, that needs to be called. I hope these refs this week don't suck.
I also love how we got called for blocks in the back on a run play, and clipping, and the chargers do it repeatedly with no penalty.
Ward gets called for holding, but none in our favor....
all you can do is laugh...
to those crappy refs
The thing with holding Harrison is that opposing blockers continue to do it every week but it is never called...perhaps the reason is that Harrison keeps going around or through them even when he is being held. Perhaps if he let the big oaf opposite him just tackle him, they would be forced to call something. But Harrison is just so awesome that he will never let another man take him down, and he will still attempt to take down your QB whether there is one or two or more guys draped all over him.
Steeler teams featuring stat-driven, me-first, fantasy-football-darling diva types such as Antonio Brown & Le'Veon Bell won no championships.
Super Bowl winning Steeler teams were built around a dynamic, in-your-face defense plus blue-collar, hard-hitting, no-nonsense football players on offense such as Hines Ward & Jerome Bettis.
We don't want Juju & Conner to replace what we lost in Brown & Bell.
We are counting on Juju & Conner to return us to the glory we once had with Hines & The Bus.
Upon further review, if the Steelers play a similar game, sans all those penalties, I have no concerns.
