why do pittsburgh fans think like this,if you take away the trick play that should have been stopped for a loss and take away the 21 turnovers this year and take away all the stupid penalties, we would be a very good team! Give me a break, all those take aways you talk about are part of the game. Think about it, If you didn't blow out Palmers knee in the playoffs and the refs don't blow 3 key calls in the SB you don't win the SB. What I am saying is listen to yourself and stop making excuses. It gets old hearing the same thing week after week.
First, not all Steelers fans think that.If this was a one-game thing, I would. But the Steelers have made enough big mistakes in enough games this year that have cost them 2 or 3 wins that it's not just a fluke anymore. This is a careless team, at least so far, and they've earned a 2-5 record. That said, they've got a lot more talent than you'd expect on a 2-5 team.As for the other stuff, they could've very easily beaten Cincinnati with or without Palmer and there were a ton of factors that went into the Super Bowl, but those arguments are really, really old now. It's a new year.
