Top 15 excuses for Steelers loss.
http://stillers.com/article_show.asp?ID=1402

1. We had a rookie QB.
2. The Pats just played too good.
3. It was too cold.
4. The Pats were favored and we shouldn't have won anyway.
5. If it wasn't for the turnovers we woulda won by 26 points.
6. The turf was in bad shape and the field was slippy.
7. The refs screwed us.
8. The Pats are a dynasty and a team of destiny.
9. If it wasn't for them big plays by the Patriots we woulda won.
10. The crowd wasn't loud enough.
11. If it wasn't for our mistakes we woulda won by two touchdowns.
12. The Pats, despite being inferior all over the field, were just too good for us.
13. The team wasn't ready, so just wait till next year, then they'll be ready.
14. We woulda played better if the Pats didn't play so good.
15. If only we woulda capitalized on our chances we woulda easily won.

7. Are you talking about the Steelers game against
the Patriots or the Jets, because your post could apply to both games. Isn't it a shame that the Steeler fans must spend the off season wondering if the buger boy is a Manning or a Longley.

8. Unfair scoring system. Home team TD's should count more.
