Glad we got an ugly win versus a tough division opponent but let's not forget this was a very sloppy game on our side. A healthy Ben and Bell and the story would have been different. Let's hope from here on out Hue runs a more balanced offense and starts including our talented RBs.
Defense played very well minus a few plays and it looks like Dunlap came back. Burfict looked really good in his limited snaps and if we can get Maualuga back our run defense will be a lot better.
Ugly win, but good teams win ugly even when nothing is going their way.

We haven't. They are .500. If the Raiders win we will have beaten a team with a winning record.

The game was not on in my area. Does anyone have a video of the play where Bell got hurt? Some Steelers fans were claiming Burfict was celebrating Bell's injury. I don't believe it.

I've had it hang up a few times, but my laptop has Vista running IE9, so I can't tell if that's the cause the few times its happened.

Uhmm, weren't the Steelers 4/3 (0.571) going into this game? That's beating a winning team.

All the great teams have games they should have lost and yet still won. Let's just hope we can get back to playing the way we did BEFORE the bye.
That was a good way to win, coming out flat after the bye. Should have them jacked up for the next 24 hrs then on to work downing the Browns.

No pass interference because the ball was uncatchable. No illegal contact on the second push because Dalton was out of the pocket. I believe the first push was missed, though. Defenders are allowed to contact receivers within 5 yards, but they must break contact when the receiver moves more than 5 yards downfield or when the receiver draws even with the defender.

Correct, and thus by rule the clock shouldn't have stopped as he was moving back toward the LOS.

Just not a fan of Chrome. I have to use it for certain things at work, and I just don't care for it. I can't put my finger on why, I just dislike it.

But it's not based on record at the time of the matchup. The Chargers were 1-0 when we played them. So by your comment it was a moot point for anyone to have said we hadn't beaten a team with a winning record this season.

that's cuz chrome is all about advers's i don't like it and i refuse to use it but IE is even more garbage. mozilla is even a big ***** anymore these days, still better than IE. get yourself a fantastic graphics card cuz flash browsing is killing them softly.
