No kidding. I've seen my 14 yr old annoy his five year old cousin. I ask him if he knows how annoying you have to be to annoy a 5 year old. Seattle is my 14 yr old son. That does make us 5 yr olds so...

Oh good I thought he was just winging it. As long as it is based on sound strategy.

Im sure Ben will make another "miraculous" comeback from injury and play next week..

But yeah, Tomlin deciding to but the game in the hands of the defense was just brilliant. Right up there with the fake FG and the ACTUAL FG on 4th down with 3:32 left in the game.
He should be left on the west coast.
Interesting that he stayed in after the hit to the head and only got attention from the training staff after the Seattle touchdown.

That was interesting and I wonder if there will be a review from the league. Something tells me he goes back in if seattle goes 3 and out.

Word is, he "self reported" himself for having concussion like symptoms. No chance he makes that report if the defense held up instead of allowing that score.

I was watching it with Steeler fan friends (who actually aren't morons, believe it or not) and I kept jokingly saying "HEEEEAAAAFFFFFFFF" every time the other TE's caught it. I'm so clever.
RE: The Legion of Boom? - Goalpost - 11-30-2015
Pittsburgh put up a 59/14 pass/run ratio in this one.
Of the 14 runs, Big Ben had 5 of them.
Is it any wonder Big Ben is so constantly banged up?

So why did he continue to play until the Seahawks scored?

Like someone else said it was reported he started having "symptoms" and told the trainer.
That's all I heard also.

Ben's brain is already mush anyway.. Keep playing him.

Yea couldn't figure that one out. Why go for fg? He should have went for it Wheaton was on fire

Incredibly frustrating. Especially when the defense has outperformed expectations earlier in the season. It was suppose to be bad...but that's BAD.
On the other hand the offense looked great even with Dick Sherman out there grabbing and holding every chance he got.

This is hilarious, a Steeler fans crying about bad calls against the Seahawks
Or any team, I seem to recall a punter getting illegally blocked (admitted after the game by head of officiating) and a holding call ignored on a Brown TD punt return
RE: The Legion of Boom? - BmorePat87 - 11-30-2015
Rough officiating against the Steelers. Time to find your QB for the future, though. It ain't Landry Jones.

They did get a horsecollar call that wasn't a horsecollar.

TBH Sherman is holding about every play
