It’s been a helluva ride cheering for the Black-and-Gold during the 2017 NFL season. 13-3 ain’t no slouch, but the facts remain: boneheaded play-calling and misguided situational football cost Pittsburgh a shot at widening their Lombardi Trophy lead on the New England Patriots. Another year, another Super Bowl I spent rooting against the AFC representative in what I know to be complete vain. C’est la vie.
Since you’re here at BTSC reading this, I’ll go ahead and assume that like myself, you’ve spent the past several weeks brooding over the same moments that defined another season done too early.
