for all the hype that mendenhall receives, he played like crap tonight. this loss should be put on the offensive line because they failed to give big ben adequate time or open holes for mendy, but mendy did not find a way to hit the holes hard. the pitt season is over, they clearly need to draft O-line in the draft. mendy got a lot of hype this week, was expecting a big game with the bad weather but he couldnt get it done in the 1st round of many playoffs.

WOW what a dud. Only saving grace was that I didn't start Roethlisberger and my opponent had Harrison going.

I just don't get it. One week, their secondary gets torched. The other, teams run the ball down their throats. And all of those weeks, either the running or passing game sputters (in this case, both). I'm done with the Polamalu argument. They were without him for 5 games back in 2007 and still had the statistical best defense in the NFL, and his absence wasn't the reason the Steelers gave up 177 rushing yards to the f***ing Browns. This team doesn't know how to tackle. Even James Farrior, of all people, had some awful misses tonight.
That was truly one of the most pitiful performances I've seen from a football team this year. And I live in an area that gets the Chiefs and Rams every week.
Kudos to Leber for the amazing sig and to Metroid for the userbar and making them both fit 2008 and 2009 Defunct Dynasty League Champion
