I hate it when people complain about officials after games. The vast majority of the time their own bias is what causes the complaints.

 

BUT ... the obvious holding calls right at the point of attack that Pittsburgh's offensive line got away with were very tough for me to stomach without commenting.

Bottom line is the Bengals had opportunities to win and didn't move on

There were several plays where I stood up and yelled that's holding. It could've been because I had my first beer around 11 a.m., or it could've been because it was blatant holding. Or both.

 

I thought both teams looked good, not great. Steelers were a bit better Sunday. Both teams were without key players. As MTGL stated, three (3) weeks ago I would've taken 1-1 after road games @ NYJ and @ Pitt. So I'll take it now, too (not that I have any choice).

And Deangelo Williams is a beast.
