The Steelers got beat in every facet of the game by the Browns last night.  It all started with a pathetic performance by the offense specifically by the offensive line which got Ben Roethlisberger eight times last night!  Roethlisberger completed 18 of 32 passes for 201 yards last night.  He also carried the ball 3 times for 10 yards (3.3 ypc).  Rashard Mendenhall also had a rough time as he only got 53 yards rushing on 16 carries (3.3 ypc) last night.  Willie Parker pitched in with 3 carries for 12 yards (4.0 ypc) in this game.  Santonio Holmes led the way in the passing game for the Steelers last night with 6 catches for 93 yards (15.5 avg).  Heath Miller pitched in with 5 grabs for 59 yards (11.8 avg).  The Steelers could only muster 216 total yards on offense (75 rushing, 141 passing) against a Browns’ D that came into the game allowing 400.3  yards per game (154.2 rushing, 246.1 passing)!

The defense played great against the pass last night but they let the Browns run all over them last night.  The Browns only finished up with 255 total yards on offense but they rushed for 171 yards on 37 carries (4.6 ypc)!  Safety Tyrone Carter led the way for the Steelers on D last night with 9 tackles including 1 tackle for a loss.  Lawrence Timmons pitched in with 8 tackles last night.  LaMarr Woodley also had a solid game with 6 tackles, 1 tackle for a loss, 1 sack, 1 pass defensed and 1 QB hit.  The Steelers are now 6-7 on the season after this HUGE loss!
