Big Ben getting sacked by a three man rush pretty much sums up Pitt's season so far.
Something is just off with them. Polamalu hurts, but it shouldn't be this much. There's no chemistry, no defense, damn sure no offensive line. You have Hines calling out Ben for sitting out with concussions on top of everything else.
I don't really think they'll lose this game, despite the awful first half, but this is still embarrassing for them. Someone has to step up to protect Ben. He's getting beaten around.

Now I have to hope Peyton lights up a revived Denver team. As someone who likes Denver, I'll just say that will happen. It's in Indy, and the Colts are going for an undefeated season. When the Colts have something to gun for, in Indy against Denver, Peyton has a field day.

Oh I've been pissed since the Chicago game and then again after the second Cincinnati game, but now it's overkill. I want to know what happened to the offensive line. They have been somewhat good this year, but 5 sacks in the first half? Disgusting. The offensive line is pretty banged up. Not too worried about the offense, Ben can do a 2 minute drill better than anyone in the league, just need the D to stop the other team's O. The secondary is terrible and our front 3 just aren't getting it done. I know they're beat up as well, but there is simply no excuse for the LB's or CB's this year.

Polamalu is a big loss, but so is Aaron Smith who's among the better 3-4 defensive ends in the league. But even so, great teams should be able to play better than this and have their long-time starters step up, and certainly better than having to worry about losing to a bottom 5 team for the 3rd time this season. Their supposed leader James Farrior has played terrible this year. I don't trust the Browns to hold onto this lead, but I sure hope they do.

I'd just thought I'd add it's great to see a competitive game despite two pretty poor teams (a bit like Ravens/Packers). I think if the Browns let them run down the field and even score a field goal on this opening drive then the momentum is going to swing. Everyone knows that losing is the attitude in Cleveland so they have keep it together on the first defensive drive.

Around 2:30 something the clock stop for like good 5 seconds so if the Steelers win the game with less then 5 seconds left it shouldn't have happened, I'm just saying.

This is like the Nebraska/Texas game, only if Nebraska had manned up at the end.
Big win for the Browns, who look to have their defense ready for next year and have to improve offensively.
DEVASTATING loss for the Steelers.

Un F'ing Believable.
Kansas City

Bye bye Bruce. Pittsburgh doesn't fire head coaches, Dick LeBeau will be there till he reitres.. but the sacrificial Offensive Coordinators are quite common. Toodles..

So much for Boomer saying Pitt was going to run the table and overtake Cincy. Adios Steelers. Have fun unleashing hell at home watching the playoffs.

Why the hell are you trying to run it back? Fall on it or just knock it out of bounds. At least give yourself a chance at a second left.

I wonder if the Steelers will beg Cowher to come back.

One of my pet peeves in football is run the ball back and/or lateraling all over the place instead of kneeling with even just 1 second left. In my eyes, hail mary>lateraling.
