lol. Name me one call Dallas got in their favor.

Oh! And how about the play where two Dallas defenders jumped offsides, then they got back onside and they whistled the play dead AFTER THE SNAP!

We will make everything Metal!

being that i saw 0 of the LB's in zone, i think its safer to say newman was wrong than all the LB's being on the wrong page

I wasn't really keeping track...

The Ben sneak was a bad spot..

Cowboys repeatedly hit Steelers after the play was dead.

Harrison was held at least three times that wasn't called... But that happens every game lol.

The reviewed fumble was not BS. It was legit. Didn't you hear Aikman? Right when the ball hit a Dallas player, he said "right there."...as in right there is where the Dallas player touched it. The spot they gave Roethlisberger was ridiculous...they spotted it backwards! They didn't give him ENOUGH credit for it. He easily got that first down and they only gave him like 4-5 inches. But seriously..don't even argue that, he had a CHAIN LENGTH to go...I'm pretty freaking sure he got it dude. And I don't remember that first completion on the TD to Nate Washington. And Roethlisbergers knee wasn't clearly down...it was clearly down when they showed the replay, not in real time when the refs have to make a call right then and there. You gave us like 4 examples of how the game was poorly officiated, and all of those examples were pretty bad....seriously, it wasn't that poorly officiated at all.

Our O sucked our D shpuld of been playing to pad stats in the 2nd half if we could convert on a few key situations.

I would of liked to take a shot down the field to Roy Williams I mean better then just running 1 yard into a pile, you have to try and kill teams when your a head not hope the clock runs out.

Dude they did try to go down field passing with the lead, how do you think they ended up loosing? The bottom line is the D on both teams made both O's look pretty sloppy, if the Steelers had a decent O coordinator that game wouldn't of even been close (count 3 missed opportunites in the Red Zone for the Steelers). Tip for the Steelers O-Coordinator: Just bc your on the goaline doesn't mean you have to be in the goaline set all the time, just because it's 3rd or 4th & short doesn't mean you *have to run it out of the I or goaline all the time, ever heard of spreading the D out some? or fricking play action ffs, realize your the main reason our O has become stagnant this year (If I can tell what were doing every play I think the opposing team can 2). my 2 cents
