[fansince'76]

Let way too much time run off there.

[Polamalu Princess]

Bitting nails here.

[86WARD]

Oh well...

[fansince'76]

Fitting ending. Shit.

[steelerdude15]

this is painful

[The Duke]

ah dammit

[Polamalu Princess]

I am just sick.

[kmsteelerwr15]

at least we put up a fight

[Polamalu Princess]

Over and it sure was ugly.

[kmsteelerwr15]

but dammit we are just straight up bad

[Edman]

Didn't play well enough to win. That's all that needs to be said.

[salamander]

So how many seasons of shitty o-line play do we have to endure before the Steelers finally do something about it? Oh that's right, they'll just hand out more insane contracts to defensive players.

[SteelerFanInStl]

we had a chance but the OL killed us again

[JayC]

we plain old suck. firstly the o-line is the worst in the business. secondly, the pass rush is non existent. woodley is an overrated waste of money. 3rd, the defense IS old. hampton, smith, and company are shadows of what they used to be. only thing that may keep us from a top 10 pick will be our schedule.

[dislocatedday]

I'm not writing the season off yet, but there has to be some serious improvement in the D line and especially O line. I'm not sure what the team can do at this point. For years, NOBODY ran on the Steelers, but that is now two of the first four games where the Steelers have allowed a 100 yard rusher, and Joseph Addai came close to reaching that last week. The O-line has nothing outside of Pouncey and Gilbert that looks promising for the future. Kemo is mediocre at best, and the rest are just forgettable.

Me neither, but my expectations of a deep playoff run have been tempered big time. We'll beat the bad teams (and we play a lot of them), but we'll come up short against the good teams. What pisses me off is that the Ravens are going to more than likely run away with this division.

[Devilsdancefloor]

well it was a horrible game we can no longer count on our run defense which saddens me. our OLBers are invisible this switching of ILB during the game is not a good thing. we have so much work to do it isnt funny.oline gives ben 2 seconds at most before he is running for his life. UGH this is so disappointing at the moment i might have a brighter outlook in a few hours

[Iron Steeler]

Oline sucks, the blocking scheme sucks, Ben/Arians got to change up the tempo of the snap, Redman should start over Mendenhall , D-line def to old, Defense needs to mix up there looks.

Arians has to learn to devise a formation where miller blocks then release,or get saunders in more double TE , more screen plays, run traps to the oposite side of the motioned recevier, Something anything!!!!

this O-Line is not able to block on there own, They are not strong/athletic enough.

[sactownsteeler]

With this O line just be thankful we have a soft schedule or it could become really ugly. I just hope Ben makes it past week 7 because at the rate he is getting hit he is gonna get injured.

Honestly i Would give up Woodley and that contract for an elite Guard or LT. This line is PATHETIC. Im done defending them . Im done defending Kemo just two stepping and not moving on ever pass play, or the inability to set the edge by our Tackles, wether backups or starters. POUNCEY, is having a sophmore slump hes been struggling himself JJ Watt embarrassed him on a couple of play. I know my think will be seen and is irrational at this time. but jesus Christ almighty Im tired of Ben either releasing the ball before he gets clobbered, or when he has to run for his life after the pocket gets absolutely snowplowed. Get it together . Im starting to hate this late BYE week.
