Steelers Curtain

3 points the final 35 minutes? He was bad. Dalton wins that game tonight. Michael Vick wins that game tonight. The Bengals Defense was great. Quit blaming Green, he did not stop running the ball was overthrown a bit.

Sore loser? He is a bad backup QB. Period. Quit blaming your coaches and look at the 2nd half collapse by your QB. As a Steelers fan, I hope AJ is in there for the 1st round in two weeks if we are there.

lol! AJ McCarron is not very good. He swallowed a big ol' pineapple in the second half, and his misplay in OT was laughable. I only hope the Steelers get some help from the Bills on Sunday so we can play Cincy in Cincy in two weeks.

McCarron isn't in the same galaxy as Dalton as a QB. Cincy should win Sunday, but they are 1st round goners unless Dalton gets back.

Gruden was neutral. I'm a Steelers fan, and I didn't notice anything. He had nothing to do with AJ McCarron's choking at the end.

I hope you are right, but I have serious doubts. Bills have nothing to play for. Rex Ryan is worst NFL coach going. Not much hope.

Chuck Noll the greatest Steelers coach ever. Built a destroyed franchise into a Super Bowl winner in era surrounded by Don Shula Dolphins, John Madden Raiders and Paul Brown Bengals. Noll coached a bad team into legend status in his years.

Frustrating and inexcusable loss. Everyone wants to blame coaches after losses, this one is all on the players. No effort the entire 1st half. Looked like we were already in the playoffs and just going through the motions in a preseason game. Just mind-boggling how they beat Cincy and Denver previous two games and looked like this.

Isn't that a felony offense by federal tax laws? You know about this for a fact?

Kobe Bryant says "Man who brag about knowledge should put up, or keep to self."

A tad grouchy. I don't see UC, Xavier, Kentucky, Louisville, Ohio State, Indiana, Dayton, playing those teams who nobody knows. Just the mid-major wannabes around the country like NKU. At least in D-2 they had a chance to win national titles. Of course, all the moral victory police are out in full gear when they "only" lose by 15-20 points to Division I known schools. Play Thomas More if you're gonna play IU-Kokomo. Geesh.

You're gonna get your wish for a rematch if you can win 1 of the next 2 and the Steelers win both as they should. I think Denver beats Cincy pretty easily without Dalton and Eifert, but Bengals should be able to get by Ravens. That will set up Steelers vs. Bengals at Three Rivers Stadium SouthWest in two+ weeks. A bunch of my Steelers buddies up in Pitt. already getting ticket plans for that one if it happens. I'd estimate about 4,000 Steelers fans were here a couple of weeks ago, should be more this time.

I'd forgot about those Cincy greats like Akili and Klingler. They helped Steelers fans have some great fun on Sundays years ago.

Grumpy, aren't we? Don't blame the Steelers you're stuck with McCarron at QB!

Why the silence, then? You protecting the cheaters?

Of course not.

Then tell us, please? Anyone can say they know something. Let's hear the facts.

I did not say Slash was a good QB, only that he was a WR/H-Back type. We can disagree on this one. I would much rather have Slash on my roster than AJ McCarron though.

Really? So every school has coaches who take tests for players, buy brand-new refrigerators and TVs for their families, arrange for players to flunk out? If you are right, college sports ought to be outlawed.

Good thing NKU made the move to Division I so they could play teams like IUK for the people who buy tickets! Looked at their schedule and saw they played someone called Tiffin as well this year. Is Tiffin a school or a country in Europe?

Whoa! Can't wait to hear the Cincinnati apologists explain this one. From Tim Sullivan. Former Cincinnati assistant coach Al Hmiel confesses to being college basketball slimeball

With all due respect, Slash Stewart was actually a WR/H-Back forced to play QB in those years for the Steelers. He did lead them to a 13-3 record one year and to the AFC finals. I was talking about a QB drafted for that position exclusively. Bubby "Brewster" aka known as Brister was a reach and not the brightest apple. That one was a bad choice. I liked Slash as a versatile player, not his fault the Defense couldn't stop the Pats in that AFC finals or we might recall Slash as a Super Bowl winner at QB.

McCarron is a CFL QB at best. Let's see what happens Monday at Denver. I think we already know (a Denver win), but let's see.

What did their radio announcer Dan Hoard say about Tubbs after the game? He flew out there for 1 day after doing UC basketball and I'm sure wasn't really happy with that kind of effort.

Trust me, it was brutal. UC needs to look hard at whether they bring back Tubbs after that embarrassment. I know UC does not take football that seriously, but to get blown away on national TV like that is laughable. Tubbs just taking his big check from UC and riding into retirement, while program sinks into oblivion.
