      Matthews made a great play on Mendy. Popped him good.

          We couldn't get out of our own way. Every time that the game seemed to be turning around, another critical mistake.

            Turnovers aside. We had several short fields and stopped their offense like four times in a row and got nothing but a missed fg out of it. We needed to capitalize on those short fields and we didnt. So while turnovers killed us, poor execution was the main culprit.

              Let's not forget that our secondary couldn't cover a bed with a blanket. And Green Bay did everything they could to help us by dropping like 5 passes.

                    I"m not sure what you are disagreeing with. The GB recievers dropped passes all night long. Oviedo is right. It could have been much worse if they'd actually caught some balls. Our corners ouside of Ike are downright terrible.

                      guy is a broken record.

                      this game was lost on turnovers and ben missing a ton of throws.

                      blaming the pass defense is the fools way out.

                        They didn't play well on either side of the ball. If the Packers could catch they'd have hung 45.

                        What's the point of a delayed blitz with the DB in coverage is 10 yards off the ball. If anything I would rather clog up the passing lanes instead of just wasting a DB on a blitz he has no chance of succeeding with.

                          Yea, but you can also say, "if we don't turn the ball over" just as easily as you say, "if the Packers could catch", ifs, should haves and could haves never won a thing. The game was the game, they dropped passes and the Steelers didn't capitalize. The Steelers turned the ball over and they capitalized for 21 points. It's all part of the game.

                            Wrong. It was a team loss. Our secondary is not very good.
                            Even if Bill Belichick was getting an atomic wedgie, his face would look exactly the same.

                              did you people really expect to shut GB down? thats the best offense in football right now.

                              secondary held up ok. i didn't see much of a pass rush.
