Steelers ‘opportunistic’ despite being outplayed by Patriots | Pro Football Talk | NFL on NBC
JUST DON’T SEEM LIKE THEY GOT MUCH TALENT ON THE DEFENSE AND THE BEARS ARE FUN TO WATCH ON OFFENSE. RIGHT NOW, THE PITTSBURGH STEELERS AS I SAID LAST WEEK, IF THEY LOSE TO THE PATRIOTS, THEY WILL NOT MAKE THE PLAYOFFS, RIGHT? AND I’M KIND OF GLAD THEY WON, JUST SO THAT WON’T BE TESTED OVER THE REMAINING 14 GAMES, THE REGULAR SEASON, BECAUSE YOU SAID, YOU SAID, THEY DID GET THE WIN, I PICKED THEM TO WIN. I FINALLY, I FINALLY GOT THE STEELERS TO DELIVER FOR ME ESPECIALLY ON A BEST BET, BUT IT WASN’T EASY BECAUSE PLAYED THE STEELERS BUT THE STEELERS WERE OPPORTUNISTIC. 5, TURNOVERS CAM. HEYWARD TOLD ME AFTERWARD THAT. THEY WERE VERY AWARE OF THE CAREER FUMBLES. ON THAT SIDE OF THE BALL WITH ANDRE STEVENSON WAS ON ON, HE LAUGHED. HE SAID OH WE KNEW HE SAID, OH WE KNEW EVERY TIME HE WAS ON THE FIELD HAHAHA BUT I DON’T WANT TO CALL HIM OUT. THEY HAVE TURNOVER PROBLEMS ON THAT SIDE OF THE BALL PERIOD. RIGHT. BUT HEY WE’RE BAD AT THE BALL. YEAH, IT WAS PICKED OFF IN THE END ZONE. MADE PLAYS RIP THE BALL OUT, 14 POINTS, 14 POINTS THAT HE PREVENTED THE PATRIOTS FROM SCORING. HEY, CLEARLY OUTPLAYED. THE STEELERS. I MEAN THE PATRIOTS ARE THE MIC RAYEL, I MEAN HE MUST HAVE HAD HIS HEAD IN THE TOILET BOWL LAST NIGHT AND THIS MORNING, I MEAN, HOW COULD HE NOT? HE HAD TO BE SICK AFTER THAT 1. AND THERE WAS SO MANY OPPORTUNITIES THEY CONTROLLED THE FOOTBALL GAME, THEY GAVE THE STEELERS, THE SHORT FIELD WITH THE EARLY RA STEVENSON FUMBLE THEN WE HAD 1 GOOD DRIVE BY THE PITTSBURGH STEELERS AND I’M TELLING YOU AFTER THAT, 13 MINUTES AND 49 SECONDS LEFT IN THE SECOND QUARTER, THEY COULDN’T DO ANYTHING ON THE OFFENSIVE SIDE OF THE BALL. THEY DID NOTHING BUT THIS THE PATRIOTS KEPT MESSING IT UP AND THE BIG TIME BALLERS ON THE DEFENSE FOR THE STEELERS THEY WERE THE ONES THAT MADE THE PLAY TJ WATT HAD THE 2 SACKS. HE HAD THE STRIP RIGHT HAYWARD WITH THE TIP PASS AND A BAD THROW BY DRAKE. MAYE THROWS A LINE DRIVE, THAT’S A BALL THAT YOU GOT TO TOUCH IN THE BACK OF THE END ZONE. UH, NEW ENGLAND’S YOUNG THEY’RE FIGURING OUT HOW TO WIN. STEELERS, ON THE OTHER HAND KNOW HOW TO WIN. THEY GOT TO FIGURE OUT HOW TO PLAY BETTER. CONSISTENTLY, PUT IT ALL RIGHT? THEY’RE OFF TO IRELAND AGAINST THE VIKINGS NEXT SUNDAY MORNING AND AARON RODGERS. BY THE WAY, WITH 2 TOUCHDOWN PASSES, SURPASSED BRETT FAVRE ON THE ALL-TIME LIST. HIS

As a Steelers fan, I am concerned with the offense. I don't think it's a Rodgers problem but an OL problem and WR problem. DK is good but we have no other threats.
Yes, even with 5 turnovers cutting drives short, the Patriots offense still ended the game with more yardage, more first downs, and more time of possession. It was very much a winnable game that they lost due to piles of dumb penalties and turnovers – very frustrating as a Pats fan.
New England Handed Pittsburgh that Victory Steelers almost rejected it
a win is a win…..rather win ugly than lose..lol
Steelers will be even better next week
a big reason why the steelers didn't 'do anything" after going up 14-0 is Tomlin, he shuts the offense down, always has always will.
the patriots didn't control the game… Chuck Clark dropped two clear interceptions. The steelers should have had 7 turnovers
