HOLY ****! What a comeback!!! STEELERS ARE AFC NORTH CHAMPIONS!!! WOOOHOOOOOO!!!

I honestly thought this game was out of reach when the Rats went up by 9 in the fourth quarter. There is no quit in this team! I'm so fired up with emotion right now....I can't even think! This is going to be a sleepless night I'm so pumped up!!! G'dam we miss Ryan Shazier! I don't know what the best solution is but starting Spence over LJ Fort was a big mistake by Tomlin IMHO. Spence hasn't played in our system for almost three years and to bring him back four days ago and expect him to come right in was a mistake....OBVIOUSLY! LJ Fort deserves to be the starter at the ILB spot. Moats is not an ILB. Spence can backup LJ Fort but he's a liability on that football field. Fort is much quicker side to side. Collins was tearing up our defense getting around the edges.

And HOLY ****! We clinched the AFC North too! One small step as we climb the ladder into the playoffs!

Game Balls:
Ben Roethlisberger - 506 yds 2 TD's....first QB to ever have 3 500+ yd passing games! Ben damn kid....and I'm gonna call him a kid....You can't retire after this season playing at the level you are playing at right now!
Antonio Brown - 11 rec 213 yds.....way to stick it to the RATBIRDS!!!
LeVeon Bell - 125 yds from scrimmage & 3 TD's
Jessie James - 10 rec 97 yds and none bigger than that 3rd & 14 catch on the final drive backed up deep in our own territory! One of his best performances!
Chris Boswell - Clutch kicks for the past five weeks each one more satisfying than the previous one! Wizard of Boz! KEEP IT UP KID!

Game Goats:
Sean Davis - out of position on several long throws leading to big gains then the dumb personal foul penalties....the hit out of bounds and suplexing Watson after he dropped the ball. Davis had to see the ball drop it was right in front of him. Really dumb play tonight!
Artie Burns - Another **** game from Burns.....two pass interference penalties.....although I don't think the second one was warranted but then after the play ripping his helmet off....that is just dumb. Lucky that wasn't a penalty! It should have been. Someone needs to get in his head
Sean Spence - It's not his fault because he has been away from the team for almost three seasons but he needs to be a backup ILB at best. He clearly doesn't have the speed side to side. The Rats turned the corner on more runs than I could count!
Arthur Moats - This guy is not an ILB either.......He had two tackles playing a position where an ILB usually has a minimum of 6 or more.
Bud Durpree - I really am beginning to think he might actually end up being another Uncle Jarvis. He really needs to step up his game.....I expect more from a first round draft pick!


FU's:
To the ****** officiating by the refs that practically moved the Ratbirds down the field for their final TD.....was over 60yds in penalties I think.
To all the Ratbirds fans! **** YOU AND YOUR HORSEFACE LB'er T. Fizzle!
TO all the Gdamn *'s fans who think they are going to walk all over our Steelers! You probably will, without our star ILB. **** OFF! I HATE EACH AND EVERY ONE OF YA! Go suck Brady's dick!

BRING ON THE ******* CHEATERS!!!

SOMEONE KILL ERNIE ADAMS before SUNDAY!!!

They called Burns on the Wallace TD PI, but no call on the LB on Bell. Uh huh...

And the 2nd one wasn't even worth talking about. Flacco threw the ball away for God's sake. It was 6 yards oob.
 
FU to Bryant, he has no heart this year, ****** un on almost every kick of, and even when he catches the ball he does nothing with it. play ing like he doesn't want to be here. oh wait a tic......
 
This is what Cincy fans don't understand, and neither do Ravens fans.

They lose because of the refs. Hell coming out of the Half, Harbaugh is bitching about AB's push-offs. They take a big lead, get all the ******* calls in the second half, and still lose.

That's the thing. When the Steelers get penalties, I see them try and overcome them. Even stupid penalties like Personal Fouls. We just stick our head back in the next play and keep churning. Winners win. Losers *****...

I can't like this post enough. Bad calls happen all the damn time. Winners overcome them; losers wilt. The funny thing is that the bunghole fans truly wonder why they haven't won jackshit in 30 years.
 
I still want to know what the hell is wrong with Bud Durpree. For example, Watt makes quite a few mistakes but you can see the insane level of effort, new moves here and there, and a splash play every game or two. I have seen ZERO progress from Dupree, almost like he is worse than he was his first year. If this is what he actually is then I do not want him back next year because I can't stand watching him anymore.
 
Replace Jarvis Dupree. He ******* sucks. His stats????? Zero sacks and One goddamn tackle last night. ONE!
 
No props for TJ Watt and the game ending sack/knocking the ball OOB?????? Man I love that kid!!!

Agree work with original post and this. This was bryants time to shine and he was barely going through the motions. His KO returns were terrible and he lacked effort on several plays from blocking to running routes. He should be watching josh gordan.

Just have to give props to AB. Any one who says he is not the best WR in the game must not watch much football. His ability to get open and his body control along the sidelines maybe the best ever. He can run any route and has great YAC. I think its time to start to compare him to dime of the greats in the history of the game.

Its not always about the stat line. He had two good pressures and at least three good drop offs into coverage, one really confused flacco and caused a throw away. Yes he hasnt taken that next step we were all hoping he would, but hes way better than Jarvis ever was.

Props to Jesse James. 10 for 97 and a big 3rd down conversion on the final drive. They keep trying to replace him with brittle men but he is the tortoise that wins the race. Great job JJ!!
 
Goats Tomlin on Davis case yet Burns once more numerous bad plays Tomlin says nothing.

Game Ball to Ben you know the one who cannot throw deep, stood in their when Baltimore put more pressure on him and did his job, first QB with THREE 500 yard games........gets no credit.

How do you know Tomlin said nothing. I saw him talking to the entire defense at one time. Another time I saw him get in both Sean Davis and Cam Heyward’s grill. I have no reason to believe he didn’t say anything to Sean Davis.
