I'm fucking pissed that the Steelers lost to the fucking Broncos. The Broncos had the WORST (32nd) rushing defense in the league, and the Steelers had the 2nd best rushing offense in the league (coming off of a bye week). Not only that, but Champ Bailey was inactive, so the passing game should have been wide open as well. Roethlisberger threw 2 interceptions (though one bounced off of a receiver) and lost a fumble that went for a touchdown. He did throw 4 touchdowns for 290 yards, but it was too little, too late. Parker, the leading rusher two weeks ago, didn't even break 100 against the WORST RUSHING DEFENSE IN THE LEAGUE. That's inexcusable. The line coverage was poor as well. Roethlisberger was sacked 4 times, but it could have been much more if he wasn't such an excellent scrambler for larger defenders and such a well-built quarterback that he can just roll his shoulder for smaller defenders. That really is his strength. He does very well on his own for the most part getting out of tricky situations and makes intelligent decisions on the run, often vastly extending the length of the play, and he showed that a few times tonight, but it was just too late. Of course, they still lead the division, but this should have been their game.
