well at least we have Mixon countering that with 11 carries for 26 yds
If this was an AFC North game I'd think two things:

1. Can't believe we are up
2. No way we win

Against KC - this looks pretty promising.
Seems like opponents’ kickers have made about 130% of their FGs vs the Bengals…
Stoolers are winning 17-14
Didn’t think safety would be a critical need this off-season, but like every other position on this defensive unit, it is. Battle’s fine. Dax and Scott are barf.

Yeah I miss that other poster who was live counting the explosives, since their defense averages 8+.

Pretty sure it is reality and not an experiment.  Paying Bates 16M would be stupid and Bell is having his worst season in the NFL.  Hopefully these 2 we have make a big jump next season. 
Does anyone love not trying for points before half more than Zac?
Id call timeout too with our pillow footed punter
Take a shot to Chase

He's a slot corner masquerading as a FS.

It was Battle's whiff on the long Pacheco run. So I'm not so sure about him.

Marvin was like that earlier on during his tenure here. But he seemed to loosen up in the later years, at least thats what it seemed to me

Hopefully because Lou system doesn’t seem to be great for inexperienced safeties. 
Does anyone know if we have any chance in hell of making the playoffs if Steelers win today, regardless if we win or lose?
I think steelers win/we lose combo is basically eliminated?
