Can we at least admit...

It's hard to look at the positive when the end result is a loss, but you are right.
 
Agree, once they figured out how to keep possession the O was pretty good. Usually 42 points wins a game.
 
Ben really only had one bad throw the resulted in the int. His fumble was lucky for them as the ball kicked way out wide and they were able to scoop it up on the run and go 60 yards for a TD. That was I believe only Ben's 2nd fumble of the entire year. Other than those 2 plays, he was on fire. The long ball catches and the TD to Bell were spot on.
 
We outgained them 545-378. The two turnovers coupled with some poor decisions and less than stellar defensive play killed us.
 
Ben made the throws with some great catches., The tip ball was not Ben's fault. The fault a defense could not stop anything and it started on fourth and goal and the runner jumps over the middle of line, no one touches him. How many third and long and medium with no chance of stopping. The desire was no where to be found with the defense .
 
You put 42 points on the board without getting one single turnover you're doing good. And that was against a great secondary who they also let pi all ******* game without a call.
 
Look at the Vikings defense after 2 weeks off. They are playing a better offense too. They were prepared to play..
 
Problem was the offense in the first third and the defense overall especially in the last third.

Yeah, I get sick of us not being ready to play. Maybe it's just my perception. I don't pay much attention to how other teams play. We certainly seemed flat as hell and Leveon is tweeting about back to back redemption games. That's just stupid.

So much talent on this team. It's fun to watch but in a way almost makes the losses harder to take. We should have won this game.

Many teams out there can do more with half the talent we have. I wonder how that happens.
 
I know he had a couple of turnovers, but my goodness Ben was a lot of fun to watch. The offense did well more than enough to win that game and the defense laid the biggest egg I've ever seen from this team.
 
The Steelers have the best offensive talent in the league... definitely. Ingredients don't make the recipe, but knowing how to use them does. Goes for the entire team actually.
 
Imagine Belichick helming this team. Dude's got terabytes of video and that's just us.

Not being ready to play was part of it. A bigger part was our defense was no f'n good.
 
Next year Ben, Bell and Bryant will be gone.

We'll see how great Tomlin is then. ******' tool.

When the TV guys are talking about it, and even Pete Prisco is talking about it, you knew the refs sucked.

How many one handed catches did the Steelers have to make because they were being held...several

Ben already said he'll be back. Bell can be franchised and Bryant has another year on his contract. Bell and Bryant may not be here but they won't be anywhere else either, or cashing a paycheck.
