    Wish Schaub could do that type of running and scrambling like Ben.

    Don't put it on the refs, these are the same old texans.

    That's so sad the steelers fans are louder than the texans fans in our own stadium....pathetic.

    Back to work... refs and injuries have sucked the life away from our home field advantage.

    Hope the NFL is getting what they wanted out of this...

    Did we score because those steelers fans are loud.

    What clown here tried to argue last year that Big Ben was not a mobile QB?

    Um, of course they are, when they score. Why would we yell?

    how dare you besmirch the angelic pittsburgh offensive line like that. they would never do something as dastardly as hold the way the texans offensive line does on (apparently) every other play.

    He had the exact equivalent play earlier.

    Both players aren't going to win games for their teams by scrambling. Ben is a much harder player to bring down in the pocket mainly because of his sheer size.

    Ben is the only reason they are in this game....his intelligence and ability to extend plays are keeping them in it...

    However, the way he holds the ball.....usually comes back and bites him in the ass at least once a game.

    I'm just happy it's not a tear in the knee. Winning this game would be icing on the cake.

    Exactly. All of a sudden, they start picking up blitzes and creating pockets for Ben???

    Even on the Mario sack, he was held for a good second before the hit... usually the flag should be thrown regardless of the sack.

    Lots of Steeler fans in this town. I'm born and raised here and remember back in the '70's when all the steel mills started closing and PA started moving south. Lots of transplants.
    Made for some interesting Oiler-Steeler games.

    The fact that there's enough of them to make that much noise is sad. Go to most other stadiums and you won't be able to hear cheering like that from fans of the visitors

    Nothing he can do to make up for that play. If he runs it back, the Steelers will get the ball. Only way he lives it down is the Texans win the game.
