Steely McGnome Predicts: Steelers vs Browns Round 2

Ugh. Last week was terrible. Just when you think the Steelers are on a hot streak, they bring you back down to earth.

It's one thing to lose to the Ravens, it's another to lose to the backups when the Steelers are mostly healthy. Just killer.

Steelers need help to get into the playoffs. Not sure if that's going to happen or even if they will do well enough against another backup who the Steelers will probably make look like an all-pro. I'd like to see them in the playoffs, but who knows. That offense is dangerous, but the defense is suspect.

On the plus side the Browns have moved Manziel into another position with the franchise. He's the new mascot.

Steely McGnome Predicts: Steelers vs Ravens Round 2

Steelers had an impressive win last week against the Broncos, let us hope they did not use up all of their magic for the Ravens game. The first game this season was a gift for the Ravens. The Steelers best not gift another one.

Too Little, Too Late: Steelers vs Browns Round 2 Recap

 

Plaxico Burress caught a touchdown pass in a meaningless game. Way to be Burress, try not to shot yourself in the leg. 

Steelers 24

Browns 10

Well, someone picked the Browns to win...maybe hoping for a higher draft pick, and I was wrong. But really you know you were second guessing the game too! DON'T LIE!!!!!!!!!!!

The Steelers offense never really got going, I know Ben threw 3 TDs, but they never really got into a good rhythm at all. Took them like forever to get a first down, and even then the offense just seemed flat. 

The Defense for the most part kept the 3rd string quarterback for the Browns out of the endzone. The defensive passing interference call was plain bullshit. Did you let that first sentence settle in? THE BROWNS 3RD STRING QB, FROM DUKE! WAS MAKING PLAYS AND MOVING THE BALL AGAINST THE STEELERS #1 DEFENSE. The hell? I have to say the best part was that the announcers kept talking like this kid is going to be a starter in the NFL someday, I mean maybe if he stays with the Browns, but that's it. He's the Browns 3rd stringer, so he's terrible. I guess he put on a decent show for next season, good luck!

So here's to an extremely disappointing 2012 season from the Steelers. Tons of talent on the offense, which seemingly couldn't move the ball, and a defense that took a little too long to gel and lost some games early. Oh and injuries, I believe about an average of 3 per game. I know every team deals with injuries and it's not an excuse, but I'd love for the Steelers offensive line NOT to have a different set of starters each week. Please. I mean for years the Steelers had an awesome offensive line and a shit QB, now it's the other way around. 

Can't wait to see how the off-season plays out, who goes, who stays. It's always a good time.

Done and Done: Steelers vs Bengals Round 2 Recap

 

That's it for the Steelers 2012 season. I know there is one game left against the Browns, but the season is over, no playoffs this year. 

Steelers 10

Bengals 13

The Steelers had signs of greatness, then just looked like crap. Hard to believe with all the weapons on offense the Steelers struggled to put up points. Especially once the defense got their act together and went on damn near lockdown of teams. The offense really just stank up the joint. Not really sure how else to describe the Steelers offense this year other than crap. 

And whatever they need to do this off-season to get back to championship form, they need to get it done. 

Bengals didn't do shit today, but best of luck in the playoffs. You're not making it next year.

Steely McGnome Predicts: Steelers vs Bengals Round 2

This is the start of the playoffs for the Steelers 2012 season. A loss and they're done, Bengals seem a little more hungry than the Steelers do, since the Steelers have had way too many chances to seal the playoff deal, but the lack of leadership on this team is something terrible.

Better have plenty of beers on hand for this game, and afterwards, and possibly for the next few months.
