The Giants absolutely f-ed up that pick, and I thank the gods they did.
They've essentially screwed Barkley out of two of his prime playing years. This year, he'll be the offensive centerpiece for a very crappy team and next year, they will likely draft Eli's replacement, start him from the beginning, and Barkley will be the "safety blanket" for the rookie QB, carrying the load. By year 3 they might be decent but Barkley will have some tread on those tires.
2nd and 10....Bengals deep in Pittsburgh territory and Dalton throws a ball right to a Steelers DB and he of course drops the ball you’d expect a 5th grader to catch....then of course Bengals receivers make two really good catches to gain first down and then score. Steelers recovers matching and dropping balls at their chest.
Oh well.
And now it's 14-7.
Nathan Peterman strikes again
Yeah, suck it Bengals!
JOY!!
Miami just fumbled on Chicago's one yard line in overtime. Bears recover.
This bears dolphins game is one of the craziest games I’ve ever watched.
This season is kinda crazy so far. Might have to start some confidence point Pickems in the upcoming weeks.
Somehow Steelers once again get away with an illegal play. Such an obvious pick play, I have no idea how they never get called for that shit.

Bengals had great defensive scheme for that situation lol. Whoever called that set up should be removed from the team.

What is the proper setup for bullshit officiating?

They just went over the top to get into FG range on previous play...maybe not play 10 yards off Brown on end and everyone else up for a run play.
You are fine I guess with Pittsburgh scoring or at worst on 3 inch line but instead ref spots it on the 1...those 4 points didn’t matter I guess. Burfict 2 blows to the head of Steelers players on same drive, neither called. Good thing Joe Haden can’t catch.
Bengals defense on that final play was idiotic. Zero players back, brilliant. We’re in FG range too but that’s not important either. Bengals lose 15 out of 20 at home to Pittsburgh but always the refs fault. Boo freaking hoo.
Young QB’s just can’t beat Belichick
Tyreke Hill with some serious Jets
First 43-40 final in NFL history

I tend to agree with you actually. About 90% of the feedback on Twitter was complaining about the noncall. Whether or not it should have been called (and I think it should have) doesn't change that it's a loss. No one cares if Cincinnati was screwed or not.
Dre Kirkpatrick (Bengals CB) was interviewed after the game saying how they still believe they're the better team, which I think I heard the same comment in 2017, 2016, etc. If you were the better team Dre, you'd frequently win. Same old junk after these games of blaming the refs, still thinking they're the better team.

Conner was down at the one. It was pretty clear to anyone who was not a Steeler's or Dan Fouts.
Also, are you seriously trying to claim that was not offensive pass interference?
