total and complete ass-kicking.

only one question for Tomlin why the fuck did you kick a FG at 20-0?

any chance that the Steelers had was kicked away.

He kept thinking that (a) his defense was better than it was and (b) his offense couldn't possibly be that weak. So, he bet that they would outscore the Patriots in the remainder of the game.

He was just the weest bit wrong.

But had he not kicked then, he would have been shut out, I suspect.

not going for it down 20 was both stupid and a surrender.

It made a 3 score game a 3 score game

it accomplished nothing.

worst case Pats take over at their 1 and Pitt probably get another shot at scoring.

but he rolled over there telling his team and the world "we can't make 1 yard".

he was probably right but it was a real bad look.

I suspect he'll get killed for that decision

I agree, though I suspect that he was going to get killed regardless.

Not a big Tomlin guy but I will disagree

3+7+3+7 = 20

Mike was trusting his defense.  If he was wrong even the 7 would not have mattered

After running his big fat yap all off-season Baker Maybefield lays a big fat egg.
190 yards of penalties had more.to do with it than Mayfield. Stupid, undisciplined penalties.

Mike was trusting his defense.  If he was wrong even the 7 would not have mattered

By kicking the FG he was tellling his offense "we cant get 1 yard"

By kicking a FG he was telling his defense, "I don't trust you to stop the Pats from their own 1 and get us the ball back"

By kicking a FG down 20-0, he kept a 3 score game a 3 score game (20-3=17 =3 scores)

he accomplished nothing except avoiding a shutout.

it was a poor decision.

7-7 in my ATS pool

got burned by backdoor with Philly and late meltdowns Jets, Lions.

didn't play any parlays for a hundy

good thing as week 1 is always bitch

How did your 4-team parlay for a hundy turn out kid, I missed your accounting for that?

heh

Bunch of Dolphins are said to have demanded trades after their... "performance" yesterday.

Management denied it.
