Rivalry means the teams record against each other is about 50 / 50. The Steelers have dominated the Bengals with the Bengals winning only a few times in their 50 year history....So lets quit batching and moaning about the refs, OK, GIVE IT A BREAK......Yesterday the better team won. We got beat in the D trenches and our O Line was a joke. How some of you think you can get killed in the trenches and expect to win is beyond me......You said it right to start, the refs were " NOT THE REASON THEY LOST "....OK, so lets not batch about the refs.
I'm going to add Steelers score was a lot of field goals and our D kept them out of end zone in spite of our no offense. With our offense, Steelers should have scored 50 points. I lay the blame on the O Line that kept our D on the field all game which causes fatigue. Our O Line stinks, and THAT I blame on Mike Brown who over the decades tries to go cheap on the O Line and the problem is Super Bowl teams have good O Lines as we had in 1981 and 1988, but BUNGLES teams have Mike Brown cheap O lines and the team doesn't have a chance of winning.
Yesterday DeMarco dominated us in the trenches. He was the best on the board but Mike Brown thought it was too high for a guard and took Kirkpatrick and later Zeitler. Of course Mike Brown refused to pay Zeitler as he refused to pay Max Montoya and Steinbach, so had he drafted DeMarco he would be on another team just as Zeitler. ...I'm going to make it very clear. Mike Brown drafting Ogbuehi and Fisher isn't working. Neither are Mike Browns guards and center. The entire O Line stinks, Mike Browns line.....Mike Browns line...It Stinks....Easily the worst O line in NFL in 2017, so don't expect many wins.
