OMG...I just saw that drop in the endzone...lol. I always feel bad for players that literally cost their team the game.

Better to be on the winning side of drops than the losing side!
Ugly win, but a needed one. Anything to pad their lead over other wild card contenders is great. Now...time to cheer on TB in their latest effort to finally beat a quality team.

another horrible officiated game against the Steelers
good thing Johnson dropped the TD because they missed about three guys getting held rushing the quarterback
Woodley also got held obviously at the end of regulation which would've pushed the Bills into about a 55-yard FG

The Pittsburgh linebacker's never get held, they just hit helmet to helmet.

What a joke of a game. Bills should have won it. I guess that's why they are 2-9

also should've been a personal foul when Stroud and the other guy bent Ben backwards, trying to separate his head from his body
ok so it's not a helmet to helmet, big freaking deal, it's a late hit to lay on top of the quarterback and twist his neck for five seconds after the play

KDKA says that the ref was reaching for his flag before Harrison even hit the QB. Bullshit call.

Go to ESPN and hit the game recap and you will see the ref never pulled the flag out until after the hit happened.

...no but watching it live I noticed how quick it was....replayed it and he's let's say extremely ready to call it.....What's Harrison supposed to do....EVERY other player in the NFL on that play where it's a free shot drills him just like Harrison did......atrocious call.
13-0....horrible play calling then the atrocious call that would've had Buffalo 2nd and long on the 12 with a woozy QB....then of course they score because it's quite apparently bought off. Holding, holding, holding, sack, sack, holding, sack, holding.....but BUFFALO NEVER HELD...EVER.....they are the perfectly tactful 2-9 team....they make no penalty mistakes.
The drop by Sanders late in the 4th......kidding me?????
Least enjoyable Pittsburgh win in a long time.
Harrison and Polamalu were awesome...especially Troy late in the game

Just watched the highlights on espn and you are right. Referee had the flag out before Harrison made the hit.

He just drilled him.....straight on, no one blocked James Harrison coming up the middle........a lineman should be fined for that alone!
Harrison hit him as hard as he could...no helmet to helmet.....he did not sphere him with the top of his helmet...his facemask hit him first and Fitzpatrick just lunched backwards. A normal size QB and he hits him mid numbers....the main shot hit the top of Fitzpatricks number.

I tell you one thing....everytime they flag Pittsburgh for being flagrant...Polamalu turns into another animal.....watch right after those plays and Polamalu is all over the place ready to kill.
and yes....on the ball Buffalo dropped for the win.....much holding was going on.....but somehow never called.

I am a huge NFL fan, but if this bullshit continues I will find a new sport to follow.
Fuck Roger Goodell.

I'm not seeing as much around the league is my problem. If they call what Harrison did on everybody.....I couldn't say much other than it's stupid.

I seen Harrison held numerous times in this game and one being so bad that it took two of his teamates to help him put his jersey back on.

I've said it before...everyone knows Harrison has a screw loose and every hard hit he gets penalized or fined YET he is allowed to be held often during each game.........at some point he may snap.....right now Polamalu may kill someone first.
