If ratings are down it’s because of games like this. Ridiculous amount of penalties called. Makes games unwatchable
NFL would be better without these two teams playing each other on TV ever again.
With such a focus on dirty hits and hits to the head these two head hunt each other non stop and are dirty every time they play. Combine that with 20 penalties for 240 yards and IMO this was a shit show one of the worst games of the season and it was on the biggest stage.Why, I thought it was a great game. Emotional
I don't particularly care either. But the players and media focus so much on how violent the game is and how bad players have it after they play. Then we see games like this. The game won't be around for long if this is what's on TV on Monday night.I dunno. These guys want to be chumps I say let em. These guys get paid way too much for me to care about what they do to their bodies.

It wasn't just the Bengals sorry, both teams participate. Hell the Bengals might be still trying to catch up from everything Hines Ward did to them. Either way it's a mess every time these guys play on TV.Remember the Steelers/Ravens games (years with Troy Polamalu, James Farrior, James Harrison, Ryan Clark, and friends) going against Ed Reed, Ray Lewis, Haloti Ngata?? When did those games ever end up like tonight?
Blame the Bengals.
It was them who was committing all the penalties, yeah I get some of them were ticky tack but 13 for 173? You don't get 173 yards of ticky tack calls.
Steelers didn't lose their composure. They weren't the ones launching themselves into defenders (Ryan Shazier didn't intentially launch himself). They weren't going around being butthurt about the opponent. JuJu finally had enough.
Bengals wanna respect? Win. Don't blow a 17-0 lead. Don't act like you have something personal against the Steelers.
Celebrating every hit like they done something, please.
Damn I'm triggered tonight lol.

Two way streetYeah well, maybe the Bungles shouldn't have triggered them back then either:

Sorry I really do get what you are saying, I really do. But I would bet the Steelers wouldn't get fed up if the Bengals composed themselves.
I didn't see much dirty ball.Dirty game tonight.
I did like big Ben saying this is AFC football when it comes to getting injured. Brutal truth
