[Count Steeler]

Yuck. A Win nonetheless. But Yuck.

[Devilsdancefloor]

a win is a win phew now can someone find the offense that was in the first half pleassssssssssseeeeeee

[Craic]

Nah...Coaching staff and Ben...ALL OF IT.

Coaching? Guys were open, plays were there. The coaches can only do so much. Ben just turned cold in the second half.

[Edman]

Steelers "win". Thanks to the Defense.

Ben, Arians, and the Offense. See me after class.

Why does this feel like a loss?

You optimist, you.

Now, let me tell the ambulance to go home.......

[Count Steeler]

Pathetic game from the O. O Line was good, Mendy was great, Ben needs to get his head back.

[Edman]

Why does this feel like a loss?

Because the Offense decided to play for 30 minutes? Turning a laugher into a close game?

A win is a win, but what was with Ben in the second half? Maybe he forgot the shopping list the wife gave him?

"Milk, can't forget to get milk."

Did anyone watch the replay of that 3rd down? I could only find one receiver come out of the bunch pattern...what a useless play call. Lame display by our offense in the 2nd half. That team should have been buried. Hope Troy doesn't have a concussion.

Sorry, but the defense didn't play very well in the second half either. They don't get a free pass.

[X-Terminator]

Ben and Arians being greedy, and Ben deciding to take the rest of the game off is why this game wasn't the blowout it should have been. Like I said earlier, I realize the deep pass was there all day, but when your QB isn't hitting them, why keep going back to it? And that inaccuracy affected Ben the rest of the game when he starting missing easy completions underneath. Poor effort all around by the offense after the first 22 minutes of the game.

Hope Troy doesn't have a concussion.

I bet he does and he's out for a couple weeks.

How many concussions has he had now ?

[SteelerFanInStl]

This should have been a blowout from the start. No excuses for anyone.

[SteelerEmpire]

Yuck. A Win nonetheless. But Yuck.

OK. On to see what the Ravens and Cowgirls are working with this week...

[pepsyman1]

Jacksonville actually finished with more first downs than we did and had the ball a good chunk longer in the 2nd half than we did. Very disappointing display in a lot of ways in the 2nd half. That 17 yard drive was enough to make me want to stab myself in the neck. And where the F$%k was Lawrence Timmons? He didn't even have an assist. He's a goose egg on the stat sheet.

Absolutely coaching. On the offensive side of the ball, the team just stopped. There were poor play calls, the team just went flat, Ben was a mess. What happened to the three step drop, quick pass that worked so well last week? It showed up once or twice today and was positive. That third down play call to ice the game would've been a perfect spot to call it...definitely coaching takes a hit here...

Because it's stupid not to try to hit a wide open receiver who if makes the catch, walks into the end zone. You're the franchise QB and you already made this throw once in the game. You keep trying instead of finding an underneath receiver that isn't open or waiitng even longer and risk getting sacked.

Don't jump to blaming it on Arians. Just because a receiver goes deep, doesn't mean that the play is designed to go to the deep ball. It can but Ben can look that way because of the matchup and the coverage. Most reads are based on coverage.
