Championship!

I'm shuddering just thinking about that combo.

This is pretty much what I expected; defense is as bad as any in the league, offense is missing key players, and the organizational culture in place does not at all respond to adversity. Pittsburgh is a well-run organization with smart players, smart coaches, and a winning mentality. No one should be surprised by this outcome.

Agree 100% Haven't had that mentality since Snyder got here, I miss the stands bouncing up and down and smash mouth Redskin football.

The biggest issue I have with this game (other than the score) is how flat our D looked. But, we already know about the multiple issues we have there. Second, is how unprepared out team looked today. They didn't look ready for the crowd or the weather. To me, the biggest reason we lost this game was coaching. We were out coached on every plane of the field. I wonder if the WR's even got warmed up pre-game, because it looked like those were the first passes they caught all day. At least RGIII was putting it in there hands.....

You guys pretty much hit all negative points about the game. I want to point out two positive things: We definitely found our kicker in Forbath, hitting all FGs regardless of how many yards. The missed PAT point isn't his fault. Second, Griffin might have looked like a rookie in the game but it isn't all on him. WRs dropping all passes, although not all of them were on target. Griffin gets the ball out quickly before anyone could get to him, preventing few sacks, which is not something we can say about our former QBs.

Not so sure about that. Maybe something happened on the PAT that wasn't his fault, but it clearly looked like a bad kick right from the start. It came out awfully low.

Really? Hmm guess we will have to wait and see what Shanny says.

It looked like it hit the back of our offensive lineman. If so, that's definitely on Kobra Kai.

How do you explain the countless losses to all the teams that played far from perfect? Its truely a sad day when our standard has become hanging with a team. A loss is a loss is a loss.

We should have been in this game minus all the drops and self destructing.

Given the state of our defense, I think that's all you can ask for, to keep things close and hope RG3 can pull off some magic.

I don't think it's asking too much of our defense to not be beaten before the snap. Roethlisberger is a lot better at the line of scrimmage than he was four years ago, but he's not the kind of quarterback that a defensive coordinator shouldn't be able to catch in the wrong play every so often.
