Thanks for everything Ben

Yep,they could have gave up only a FG. Which still would have amounted to 10 points off of turnovers in what turned out to be a 3 point loss. Look, I'm not saying Ben is the only reason they lost that game. There were multiple reasons. Ben's play early was one of them.
Still glad to have him back next year and wouldn't want anyone else playing QB for us. I'm just not of the mind that he's above reproach and his miscues early today should be overlooked while his 400+ yards passing and 5 TDs are celebrated.

I get that, and had we lost 20-16, it would be one thing, but with the way this defense looked lost and confused, no way I'm complaining about Ben and the passing game

Last word from Tomlin was he was not going to have Ben run . For all you haters he was the reason today we had the chances to pull out. This mighty defense that was not charged up and had no enthusiasm all day was why this team sits. Tomlin's lack luster game plane and go for a onside kick when the chances were slim to minus zero. Ben was still trying as he ran for first down, the lateral pass to Bell for a TD, You did not see Ben doing the hula dances in the end zone after a score , when still being beat. We have to many me players and lack leaders or motivators and today proved it.

Yep alot of guys just want to get theirs. I'm going into the draft looking g for guys like Watt and Shazier on D, guys who love to play, not just super talent. With the way Dupree has played, and the unknown with Shazier, we may have to draft another LB

Seriously? He's bigger and younger than Gisele's husband, and he does it 5-6 times a season. You really think Ben is more valuable to his team than TB?

Its the playoffs. Win or go home. leave it all on the field, even if its your QB's carcass.

Why don't we have a running back who can pick up one yard?
 
Big Ben coming back next year. pretty much said it in his press conference. now get rid of Haley

And I understand your viewpoint. The defense sucks. If Shazey had been healthy, it would have still sucked. They need more/better talent at ILB, LOLB and FS and a fresh point of view at DC. We all know my opinion of Haley; so I hope Ben helps them decide that it's time for Tequila Todd to move on.

Its ok to complain about EVERYTHING. Those plays played apart of the game too. They sucked just like the decision to onside and the 4th down debacles. Just as big as the Dline not showing up. IT ALL SUCKED
 
Ben is coming back. Fire Haley and Butler soon to shop for new OC and DC. A change that will improve what we have and will get our “players” to play to their potential.

It did all suck, but when your offense moves the ball up and down the field in the best D in the NFL, scores 42 points, there's no question where the blame lies

Here's six-foot-nothing Drew Brees doing it. Someone should show MT.

China doll can't stick his nose in the pile for 1 yard on two different occasions? In a playoff game?

462 passing yards, an NFL playoff record surrounded by the best talent in the League.
BR doesn't need to "stick his nose" anywhere
What he does need to do is tell Art the Deuce "auf Wiedersehen", the AFCN title is nice but...

We will hear about him NOT being allowed to do that

Haley in the middle of the season stated the QB sneak is not in the playbook. Ben did state he would do it if called upon. Take it for what it is.

Eh, just rejoined the site! Haven't been on here in a long time but BIG ***** is quite possibly the biggest ***** on the field. He stands back there like a scarecrow afraid to run/scramble and also was unable to get 1 ******* Yard on a QB sneak which is a bit pathetic considering how big he is!

Haley is a ******* waste of alot of money who couldn't gameplan his way out of a paper bag!

Tomlin is a BUG EYED fool who is unable to prepare his teams to attack the other teams weaknesses. It is always the S. O. S! (Same Old Steelers)

Pathetic game and this happens waaaaay to often and things should change but they won't! All the coaches should be ******* replaced. I would RATHER NOT MAKE THE PLAYOFFS!

Go back in to hibernation. Only reason this team is worth a **** is because of Big Ben. Cannot wait for him to retire and watch the shitshow. No wonder Bradshaw hates Pittsburgh because of (so called) fans like you.

Yes, but why?

Ben got hurt one year Haley said. It isn't Ben fault they won't run it. He said he has lobbied for it in the past.
 
Coryea said:
Didn't say that,but it's ok for the D to bail out the O and hold to 3

I agree Coryea just like its ok for them to bail out Tomlin and Boswell for the decision to onside and sorry onside kick.

Might not sound like it, but I'm glad/happy/ecstatic to hear Ben is coming back. Bell has no choice. If they can't work out a contract, Franchise his ***; call his bluff.

Damn guy will get over 14 million on a tag. So that's like 26 million for this year and next. I'd try to get him on a 3 or 4 year deal tops

The offense did their job today. How about the defense generate something called a TO. A sad effort today. Whether by the coaches and/or players....or both. Just said effort on defense.
