It was a do or die game, and the team decided it was going to die. At least it's over.
Who should stay? Who needs to go? Who needs to be put on notice?

"When you go out on the field and you're intense for 60 minutes, some guys don't want to do it. When I line up across from him, he has to do one of two things, he has to raise his level of play, or he's going to get his *** kicked all day"

ill show our guys some love because the team clearly poured out their heart and soul into this game. Especially the defense. Absolutely inspirational effort, i just wish the offense could have fed off their energy. Man i miss those days

Rashard Mendenhall can go with him, too.
Oh and speaking of Wallace, true to form, he disappeared today. Yeah, he needs to go. He hurts the offense too damn much.
Defense played amazing today, stupid decisions cost us.
I hope to God they bring in some competition at punter to camp.

Defense step up today hold Bengals offense to 2 FG's and still lose, cant believe are offense cant score 2 TD's. Well yea its over i dont think we would have made it past 1st rd anyway if we made it. we are what are record say .500 (if we win next week)

agreed hes been awful the last few games
Oh, and a new special teams coach.
Array title="Carolina Steelers has a spectacular aura about">
I agree every punt we had i felt like the the other team was going to take it to the house or get great field position
How about a special teams coach in general.

What happened to him? He was incredible at the beginning of the year then just fizzled. Injury?

honestly im least impressed with the coaching staff
Array title="SteelerFanInStl has a reputation beyond repute">
I'm going strictly from the stats and the play-by-play since I didn't get to watch the game.
From what I can see, the defense played very well and the offense STUNK! Poor play calling, poor execution, didn't take advantage of turnovers, etc. TERRIBLE!!!!
At least this nightmare season is almost over.
It's already over, it's all about playing for next year.
Array title="SteelerFanInStl has a reputation beyond repute">
The nightmare isn't over yet. We still have to play the Browns. Losing to them will just put a cherry on top of this big pile of shit of a season.
Array title="vader29 has a reputation beyond repute">
Now that the playoffs are out of reach I wouldn't mind if they lost the last game to gain a better spot in the draft but they will probably somehow come out of it with a win to screw that up also.
Array title="BlastFurnace will become famous soon enough">
Agreed. It's time to look at the big picture now. A win against the Browns probably costs us around 5 slots in the draft.

ya he disappeared because ben couldnt make a throw, mendy looked great. you keep wallace you keep mendy you keep brown you sanders you keep ben, todd haley needs to adjust his damn system around these guys, this wallace hate and mendy hate is dumb. Ben was awful and the o line was awful thats why wallace didnt have a good game ben had no time to get him the ball and when he was wide open ben misses him. Mendy looked really good but of course our genius coaching staff didnt want to give him the ball.
I would agree with this...if I wanted to suck again next season also.
“I don’t want to see anyone injured, but I’m not opposed to hurting anyone. There’s a difference. When you’re injured, you can’t play. But when you’re hurt, you can shake it off and come back. I try to hurt people.” – James Harrison
you forget we went to 2 superbowls with same guys we are deeming the problem. So next year when we have dwyer out of the backfield getting stuffed brown at our number 1 catching 3 tds a year and sanders catching 3 balls a game for 20 yds im sure our offense will be explosive.I would agree with this...if I wanted to suck again next season also.
You must be kidding with this we won a superbowl with (insert names here). As I have stated before we also won with Berger as our punter and Reed as our kicker. See how silly that argument is???
I for one have been on a bring back Berger rant for years now, hopefully next year we bring him in for another look!!!
the point is there is no way wallace and mendy being big parts of our superbowl run against the packers are all the sudden players we need to get rid of. fact is we are better with mendy in the backfield over dwyer and we are better at receiver with wallace brown sanders as opposed to brown sanders cotch. If you want to talk about guys that cost us games you have no choice but to put brown into that category. These guys did not forget how to play, something is wrong with the team now and its not the talent.
what is THAT supposed to mean?

I only saw Mendy ran "good" a couple of times. He didn't do any better than the committe did without him.
He only carried 11 times but for 50 yds he was fast and powerful but tomlin wouldnt leave him in the game, he actually out rushed dwyer and redman combined.
dwyer and redman 17 carries 43 yds
mendy 11 carries 50 yds
Mendenhall is unreliable much like Wallace. He only plays well when he feels like it.
This game hurts so bad that I'm listening to Van Hagar.
