Steelers smash Raiders and Seymour smashes Ben

Every time I see that, I giggle just a little. Â C’mon, that’s funny. Ben got popped.
Now the game wasn’t so funny. Â More than 1.5 football fields of penalties against the Steelers? Â The score was already a blowout, what would it have been with less penalties. Â Bottom line, while it was a win, and a good solid win, it was far from pretty.
The Steelers need to do better than that to beat the Ravens and the Jets in upcoming games. Â In fact, they need to do better than that against the Bills this weekend.
Injuries, penalties, it’s just not pretty.
I was encouraged, however, by the offense – not boring, a little bit of a mix. Â And the defense looked more inspired than the previous game against the Patriots. Â But it was the Raiders.
There’s a lot of competition in the AFC and while I really want to get to playoffs, I also want to win.
Show me something Steelers. Â Play tough.

The refs in this Steeler/Raider game were blind. The personal foul calls were egregious! Do the Steelers have a bullseye on their back? I say yes. I say take that yellow flag and shove it up your *ss. That is all!

I must say it was funny to see Ben get smacked. Good to see Kemo come over and defend too. A lil ‘girlie’ of Richard to hit him though and not TRAI!!! ‘Cause it was Trai that was talking smack to him. Yes, we need to shore up those penalties though. The Ravens/Jets and the like will CONVERT on those penalties. Can’t keep having that happen. Target on our back or not. Just not acceptable. Good to see us not get discouraged though and keep playing.
