You kidding?
The Steelers have a mediocre offense. That offense has been mediocre since 2008.
As for this season: The Steelers got off to a 2-3 start WITH a healthy Roethlisberger. During that stretch, they lost to both the Raiders and Titans.
The Steelers were 6-6 WITH Roethlisberger and 2-2 without him. Before Roethlisberger’s alleged injuries, the Steelers offense ranked 19th in scoring. By season’s end, the offense ranked 22nd in scoring…
Here’s Roethlsiberger’s importance: The Steelers have lost with him, and they’ve won without him.
It’s time to trade the league’s most fragile quarterback, to get out from underneath that $800,000 per-game payment.
It shouldn’t take a 100-million-dollar quarterback to finish 22nd in scoring two seasons in a row.

Although injuries are not a good excuse it does explain a lot about what happened this year. I don’t care who you’re playing. With that many injuries you’re gonna have a bad year. If this team woulda been healthy all year they woulda been 12-4 easily. Ben came back after being injured and he didn’t look the same at all. They were 6-3 when he got injured. And that was the beginning of the end. And that so called #1 defense in yardage failed to do what good defenses do. Get takeaways. 17 takeaways. Just putrid. 3rd least amount of takeaways in steeler history! Way to help the offense out!

And that’s what’s so disturbing. It’s one thing to be 8-8, but to be 8-8 against some of the worst teams in the league, that’s not only unacceptable but that also doesn’t bode well for a quick turnaround.

There seems to be an issue with the team’s attitude and some poor coaching.

The Bengals seem to be peaking though I question if they can get past the first round. Even if they do, they just do not seem to be a contender this year.

As for the Ravens, it seems they have slide down hill in the second half of the season. They will likely lose in the first round but if not, no doubt they will lose in the second round.

Our divison is probably the weakest from top to bottom. We play each other harder than we do other teams.

As far as ravenator and scoobie, like it or not, the ravens are the old browns. The colts left baltimore and so your town could only get one team which was probably the worse team in the nfl at that time. You have won one superbowl and it has been a while since you have been there. The Steelers have been there 3 times since, and won 2 of those. Stop making so many idiotic comments.

Bring up your 1 super bowl win. What is it? Don’t bring it up, or bring it up when you think it makes your team more relevant? There is a reason why Steelers fans talk about their 6 rings. It shows that the organization isn’t just a one hit wonder like the Ravens.

Also the Raven fan above who says “the class of the AFC North will beat up on Cincy at the Bank next weekend” is brain dead. The Ravens play the Colts.

Bruce Arians was “chased away” because his offense smelled almost as bad as the city of Baltimore.
Last season’s Steelers’ point total was 325. This season’s point total is 336.
Do the math.

Get there, win, and you can brag until you do don’t be a miserable whiner….please..

“not overly impressive but we got it done…we finished8 and8″ lots to be proud of steeler nation. now sit back and enjoy watching real football teams in the playoffs

2 11
The real teams I look forward to seeing are the broncos patriots in AFC and Green Bay and niners in the NFC . I enjoy watching teams other than the steelers because I realize you can’t be good every year. Good is not just a tee shirt…just saying.

Because its a fact and superbowl wins is all that matters, not the playoffs. Steelers 6 Bmore 1. Let me guess your still bitter the ravens havent beat the steelers in the playoffs. Sure the steelers didnt make it to the playoffs this year, Big Deal!!!! So your right…I think I will enjoy my long cold non playoff season…….. watching the ravens get knocked out in January like they normally do. By the way, Id hardly call the ravens a real team. They may have barely beat out the steelers in the playoffs but real teams dont lose to charlie batch in their house and barely squeak in the playoffs.

Go read any of this ravenator comments (yes he is a joke at this point, but normally one of first 3 posts on ever Steeler story, what does that say about that person’ s life really?).

And oh yah, it’s also true. We have won 6 Super Bowls, but Steeler fans don’t expect to win them all. That’s why we take seasons like this in stride. We don’t have to pity ourselves annually like Raven fans who are forced to accept regular season victories against the Steelers as their super bowls!

Posting on every article about the Steelers has shown this. So stop commenting on every single Steelers article until your team actually wins the big one. You are making yourself look so insecure. That being said, good luck to the Ravens. I won’t be cheering for you guys but good luck because the way they have played the last month, they will need it against Indianapolis.

His new team is 11-5 with an outstanding offense led by a rookie QB. Now I think we all understand Big Ben’s crying about the current offense. Woops. I bet Steelers wish they could have a do over on Arians for Hailey (who’s done what to deserve the job?) exchange.
