No actually, all of my posting was done in the game forum yesterday. And most of it was praise & positivity (imagine that) except for the brutal play of cortez Allen. They can not continue to put that guy on the field. Martavis Bryant on the other hand get him on the field & keep him there.
After a game like that, I'm glad it's Baltimore next. I normally would expect a letdown from the team, but that shouldn't happen against the Ravens.
Paid him a lot of money to sit on the bench. Clearly they had a fear he would turn it around and then go Keenan Lewis on them (who shut down Jordy last night).
That pass to AB was off the fingertips -- you can call it a miss if you want but that was a damn nice throw. You are correct that the receivers made some amazing catches but he had a couple drops of perfect passes too so it all evened out.
Allen has all of the tools but he's lost his confidence and seems to be pressing. He may be a lost cause now but I don't think the Steelers have given up on him. I do think that he needs to be riding the bench for now though. It would be nice to have Ike back so that can happen.
Yeah, I would agree. When Bryant was crossing and dropped a 3rd down pass that hit him in the hands it was killer. Just glad that Ben didn't come out of that game without realizing that there are always improvements to be made.
I don't like the matchup for this game. That being said they have to steal this one from the Ravens or beat the Bengals twice.

IFire Todd Haley!!
I think Snoop is happy. I think..NSFW and all that
Snoop before he started Vine-ing. I him so much harder now.
Suggs is such a piece of sh@$# and has been for a long time. Well documented so I guess I'll leave it at that. And just f#@$%ing stupid as hell on top of it. Getting thumped and you're taunting the Steelers bench? Bright.
I think some would point to his hit on Todd Heap after he was hurt on the previous play and lined up and there was a spike to stop the clock and Peezy blasted him.
If Porter intended to hurt Heap he would have hit him, instead he pushed him and Heap fell down. That is a big difference to what Suggs and Upshaw were doing last night.
He did. I expected that to go very, very poorly when he was called upon. Glad I was wrong.
Gotcha.
Yeah, I believe he totally intended to. I won't assume he intended to "kill his career" or anything, but that's kind of what I was intimating earlier about Suggs; he's such a cro-magnon that he would probably never even spare even an eye blink to think that "Hey, I could destroy both this guy's legs doing this. Not just ruin his career, but make his life suck too." But if someone ever went after HIS legs like that... I won't root for an injury to anyone, but I can't say I was disappointed when they tried to picket fence "T Sizzle" a few plays later.
Hoping that was his coming out party because we could certainly use an above average corner.I hate #### like what Suggs did and think that's the kind of stuff the NFL should be cracking down hard on. Not stuff like Chris Borland's tackle on Tre Mason that the announcers went out of their way to say is a penalty the refs missed. If anyone saw that you know what I'm talking about.
I just watched the replay on the NFL Network. They showed it in slo-motion and Suggs made initial contact in the so called "target zone" right in the hip area. Blount was still churning and the whistle had not blown until right at contact. I think Suggs is a doosh but that was just football.He did. I expected that to go very, very poorly when he was called upon. Glad I was wrong.
Gotcha.
Suggs is still a piece of sh@#$.

He's an ###hat of the highest magnitude.
1) it was rightfully flagged. Unnecessary roughness: unnecessarily running, diving into, cutting, or throwing the body against or on a player who (i) is out of the play or (ii) should not have reasonably anticipated such contact by an opponent, before or after the ball is dead;I just watched the replay on the NFL Network.

Blount's forward progress had stopped and he was clearly bottled up when Suggs crushed him from behind. If the whistle hadn't been blown before the hit then it was legal but still a cheap shot in my book, which is not unusual in Steelers-Ravens games.I just watched the replay on the NFL Network.

If I read correctly on DK on Pgh Sports, Blake was their highest graded defensive player for the game!
Every time they showed Flaccid on the bench, he looked like a zombie. It didn't seem like he was into the game at all.
Hopefully that plant from McClendon left him with ringing ears and a headache. Little payback for the cheap shot from Upshaw on 7.
I think a lot of it is more jabs to Raven fans than it is actually hate towards Flacco. After the Ravens SB win in '12, I read a lot of "MVP Flacco is clearly better than Ben" type chest thumping. granted, he did have a very nice postseason and set himself up for one hell of a payday.
Bold+salary of someone like Cutler+Ben 1year left on contract=scares me what they may need to pay him.
