AFCCG: Steelers at Patriots Discussion (1 Viewer)

First off, the Patriots are out playing the Steelers. Pittsburgh defense is playing very undisciplined football. 

That said, the officiating has been awful. Haven't watched as much football this year as usual, but these officials are reminding me why. The "defenseless receiver" call on 3rd and long....well let's just put it this way, my 11 year old asked "what did he do?" I said "Tackled him...he just tackled him....apparently that's not allowed anymore." 

 
This Steelers defensive game plan, if you can call it that, is so ####### frustrating... THIS HASN'T EVER WORKED AGAINST NE... so disappointing.

 
I could complain about the refs lack of flags but they haven't called penalties on either team. Bottom line: Tomlin refuses to try something new against the spread. Pitt woefully underprepared on defense and zero creativity on offense.

 
It's ridiculous how the NE receivers are running routes and the D is like 5 yards away from them on every play.

Tell your son it was helmet to helmet and that's the rule.

This is essentially what I tried saying for about ten pages. What were the Steelers going to do differently? If the answer was nothing, they would be in big trouble.
