IMO Joey Porter and the guy who pulled the bengals players hair on the sideline should both be heavily fined and possibly even suspended in the next game. Clear video evidence of both of them instigating and making contact with opposing players. How is that ok? That should never, ever happen IMO.



You know what will happen to them tho? NOTHING! lol It's good to be a Steeler.


I don't understand how they weren't flagged for that.

Karma is coming to them I am sure. Unless of course Goodellbot wants them to keep winning.

I can't stand the Steelers and I cannot imagine a worse ending to the season than potentially losing to them in the Super Bowl... I'd rather get knocked out early than watch them defeat us.

However, I have zero sympathy for the Bengals. Players like Burfict and Pacman Jones are absolute human garbage. Burfict is the dirtiest player in the NFL, out trying to seriously injure people for fun and celebrating opposing injuries. Guys like him should be kicked out of the league. And Pacman Jones is a repugnant human being, he should be in prison.

This is what that franchise reaps for employing that kind of filth.

Oh no doubt...I just want to beat them in the SB. I have no love of Pitt at all, I hate them. That's why I want to beat them in the big game, cut their heart out, and destroy them. I still harbor bad intentions from 08.


I was thinking the same thing. I'd love to beat the tar out of Seattle and then Pittsburgh to get the trophy. It would be like banging two 10s two nights in a row. Except maybe even better.

This is why I can't stand Marvin Lewis. He had Carson Palmer and harbored dudes like this, catered to Chad Johnson, brought in TO, selfish players, and also loves his thugs, instead of building around Palmer. I thought that way before we even sniffed Palmer on our team. Marvin Lewis is a piece of crap. He can sound good in the media, but look at the players he brings in. That's what he deserves.

Pitt is no better, the only difference is I want revenge on them in the SB so I was rooting for them to win. They're both garbage teams with no ethics at all.

Like I said. Seriously, not even Steelers hating here.

Name a playoff game that the Steelers won that was not marred by some kind of officiating controversy? Even if the call was ultimately correct, the benefit of the doubt always, always, always goes to Gold and Black. Everytime. You know, like when a guy is being dragged because he is holding a wide receivers jersey and they dont call PI.

This is dream scenario for me. I've actually been thinking about this for weeks and weeks. I thought Pitt was out of it but man they got lucky to get into the playoffs and I was happy, and I'm happy they won today. I want to play them for it all in the SB, and I want to beat Seattle to get there. That would be so glorious man! They fired BA and he can get revenge and we can get revenge for 08, who wouldn't want that!??

Either way, it was a disgrace...

Totally. The NFL is taking some major hits this year. People are really, really fed up with the officials (not just this game, cumulitive effect of a season of terrible calls) and after the total ugliness of this game... I know the NFL thinks they are, and they very may well be invincible, but this cannot be good for business.

This game was ugly and was one of those games that proves every football critic right. Perfect word LIAC: Disgrace

Sun Devil pride!



What a monumental meltdown, a total team effort.


Have to imagine that ASU fans have (or are trying to) distance themselves away from Burfict.

The dude was a piece of **** in college, and continues to be a piece of **** in the NFL.

That hit Burfict put on Brown was one of the dirtiest, most dangerous, unnecessary hits I have seen in quite some time. Brown could have seriously been injured by that. There is no room for plays like that in football.

no it wasnt. It was a glancing blow with the shoulder. Watch the replay a few times. The hit wasnt that hard and he got up and walked away

The entire post game show blaming the loss on Burfict was sickening. The Bengals were down 15-0 and going nowhere fast. Burfict knocked out Rapistburger on a perfectly clean play that totally changed the momentum. They take the lead with 90 seconds to go and he locks it up with an INT.

Yeah, the hit on the pass across the middle was a penalty but he didn't fumble the ball and Pacman got the penalty that put the Steelers in field goal range.

Either way, the Bengals were dead in the water until Burfict turned the game around.

Dude, do you really think the officials would allow us to beat the Stealers????? Not in a MILLION years. The Stealers have been blessed with calls for the past 50 years. We would never be allowed that revenge, never!!!

Watched the tape at the end for that second personal foul. As Brown was walking off, Burfict pats him on the back while saying something then gets his hand swatted away by the Pittsburgh trainer. Porter is walking a few steps behind, stops and says a few words to Burfict. Then from about 5 yards away, #95 on Cincy steps directly into Porter's back nearly knocking him over with his shoulder pad. That should've been the penalty, but then comes Jones leaving no doubt. Bengals lost their composure in a major way and deserved to lose the game.

Pitt won, that's all I care about. Now our Cards have to hold up their end. Still a ways to go, but hopefully Ben will be okay and make it to the SB. Cinci is probably the best defense they'll play. We just need to beat our teams then we can destroy them in the SB and claim our place as best team in the NFL.

(Don't care about all the hits and whatnot, really don't care, Pittsburgh won, sweet, can't wait to beat their ass)

And the networks have basically Canonized Ben the Rapist and Ray the Murderer but Vontaze Burfict is everything that's wrong with football.

Are you kidding me?!?!

The OBJ hit on Norman was way worse IMO.

Dont you know that in the NFL, it's fine to hit a woman, you just cant hit a Steeler.
