Pittsburgh vs San Francisco

"Making it even" is just as bad as supposedly giving calls to the Steelers in the past.

When you allow one team to play outside of the rules it will look like the other team got outplayed.

C'mon you couldn't have really watched and said Steelers played as good as the 9ers. Penalties or not. Ben throwing 3 picks hurt the steelers way more.

Pats are peaking and the right time, their D sucks but who can outscore them in the AFC?

Depends on which Ravens team shows up, they always play well against the Pats. The Steelers have demonstrated the ability to stop them if Roethlisberger is healthy. It is looking pretty likely the Pats make it though.

That didn't help but when you have that many bad calls it compounds and forces even more errors. Every time the Steelers crossed the 50 there were at least 1-2 "penalties" or missed/bad calls, explain how a team can overcome that?

Been there. Sometimes calls don't go your way. Tomlin's postgame said all.

I hope Sherrod Martin was watching that game. He really could've learned something from those 49er safeties.

Walt Coleman is notoriously biased against certain teams, the Steelers being one of them. I'm sorry but there's absolutely no excuse for it.

I have no words to express how good it feels to see a Panther win and a Rapistberger loss in the same week!!

I was unbelievably impressed the the 49ers defense....that group is fast, physical, and nasty.

Same here...I don't watch them play much. They have been the best in the league for awhile now and will be for a looooong time to come. That "D" was taking shape last year and it is full of young big time playmakers. Barring injuries, they should only get better over the next couple of years and that is a scary thought.

It will be interesting to see if they can stop the Saints or Packers in the playoffs though. Looking forward to that matchup.

No rushing touchdowns allowed through 14 games (15th straight), a +25 turnover differential and haven't allowed a 100 yard rushing performance in 36 games.....the 49er Defense is off-the-chain

Again, the DC of the 9ers was the DC for the Panthers in 95-98. Brought back memories.
