I live in Stealer country, surrounded by black and gold. They cannot shut up about Jones and Burfict and the cheating Bengals, even now after they won. Its all over facebook and people are talking about it and its the big topic. I've been here a long time and have seen Stealer fans act like this before --I know this song and dance lol. The reason they are still whining even after advancing in the playoffs, is that deep down they know the refs decided that game and they got smacked around in the way they are used to smacking people around. They know damn-well that the only clear cut illegal hit was by one of theirs on Gio and it wasnt called. They also know damn well that they werent the best team on the field Saturday night, even with the Bengals backup QB starting. But the biggest thing that chews at their neanderthal minds, is the fact they they hang their hats on their tough, physical teams of the 70's ---all their recent SB's were nothing compared to back then with the steel curtain and the dominant tough guys. It eats their little pea brains alive that the Bengals are WAY more like the Stealers teams of the 70's than the Stealers team of today, and if last night were back then, they would have lost. Its hilarious to me to see them play the wimp card after 30+ years of their puffy chest crap talking about the steel curtain and the dirty hard-hitting teams of the day.
Truth is, the NFL is becoming too politically correct, and it has been making is less fun and more stressful to watch for years now. The crap they have done hasnt helped much except to create a bunch of drama like refs deciding more games and rules that are almost too hard to call on the field consistently. In my eyes none of those hits 'should' have been illegal, not even the one on Gio. This is football. The only thing that should've drawn a flag was Porter being on the field, but that went against Jones instead. If they really want players to stop leading with their heads they would go back to leather helmets. That is the only thing that will naturally make the players think twice.
We have a great team, and should've been on our way to play NE.
