Have to laugh at some of these posts. Pittsburgh never commits penalties now. Thanks for the laughs.

I think that there is some definite paranoia going on here. I work with a lot of Steelers fans and most of them only complained about the hit on Heath Miller. None of them ever mentioned the false starts and had no idea what I was talking about when I asked them.

Cincy up by 10 at half
Steelers win by 10
Postgame, T.O. says that he is having the best season of his career and doesn't know what the hell is wrong with everyone else

The only complaints I have are the hands to the face of Ben not being called. The false starts I never really noticed them. You can start moving as soon as the snap is started.

oh yeah....they were talking about the hit on Big Ben. I didn't watch the game other than flipping to score check, so I am just going off of what others said.

The jokes on you bigdaddy. The Raven LB has just been fined 40k for his hit on Miller that wasn't flagged. Your fatboy lineman was just fined 15k for his unflagged hit on Roethlisberger. Proves my point.

I have a problem with the false starts because the Steelers edge rushers are good and the Ravens know that. It gives them more of a chance to block Harrison and Woodley.
Maybe it's something the officials just choose to let go but I really haven't noticed it that bad with other teams, just with the Ravens.

Im going to go with the Steelers by a couple of scores. Suisham is 6-6 on FG since taking over the job, of his six FG five of them are 40-49 yards. Reed was 2-6 from 40+ yards.
Hopefully Adams will be able to go on his bad ankle. Really hurts the running game as they love running to the right side.
Any updates on Miller? I am totally expecting him to be out this game, but will he be back for the Jets?

Yah I just saw this on twitter...Chris Mortensen reported. Jameel McClain fined 40K and Haloti Ngata fined 15K.

Ryan Clark just tweeted this.
"Fines for the Baltimore game but where were the flags? The flags hurt more than the fines. Why error on the side of caution on us."

Aaron Smith had an MRI and he's been cleared to start lifting weights
he's on schedule as Tomlin put it
sounds like he may start practicing in a couple weeks
I'm guessing he won't play in any regular season games but is on schedule for playing in the playoffs if they make it

certainly they want to win the division but as far as just clinching a playoff berth the Steelers would do that with two wins, any two wins

True, but I'd rather have the first round bye and at least one home game (although home advantage is a LONG shot with NE a game better and holding the tiebreaker with four weeks left) than winding up with one of those "win three road games to get to the Super Bowl" routes.

yeah, definitely
but it still would be better to make the playoffs rather than not make them after missing out last year
there were some significant outcomes last week -- San Diego losing for example -- that put basically every team at six losses, so 11-5 would guarantee a spot

I would enjoy a game where Pittsburgh plays way better than the opponent and be up 24-3 at half instead of 9-7......gotta put teams away....from the SB versus Arizona to the 2-10 Bengals.
The Bengals can beat the Steelers....Bruce Arians can keep any team in it...and if Pittsburgh gets called for holding a lot by the OL and the DL can't get to Palmer...it'll be TIGHT

Why "should" the Bengals win?
