I think a lot. WIth that hurt left foot, he couldn't step into his throws. It caused him to overthrow the TE on the pick by Goldson and also made him miss other throws. On top of that, it killed his mobility entirely which is the biggest part of Ben's game. IMO, they shouldn't have even played him. He only hurt his team.

Don't care. Other teams take advantage of us all day long when we have injuries. They did stunt blitzes right up Chilo's grill when he was in due to injuries vs. the Ravens. That's the NFL. Life is tough....
And our D is really good and for real. We still win this game IMO although it would be closer.

Ben being hurt was a factor. It was his choice and the Steelers choice. They 9ers did exactly what they were supposed to do...beat the crap out of him.

It mattered.
Big Ben is not a statue in the pocket. You have a mobile quarterback who makes plays on the run and then he gets an injury that forces him to be a statue of course that effects the outcome of the game. We won 20-3 but come on now that game was like Baltimore were 1 play changes the whole game. It's a defensive battle and the 1st team to put up that touchdown had the advantage.
Ultimately though it doesn't matter. He was hurt, he played, and we kicked his @ss.

the question becomes how does he play when teams seriously game plan around him?
Others will have to step up when this happens
Aside from J Smith the other have been pretty quiet. McDonald has been solid but isnt getting the pressure he got in the early parts of the year. Parys has done pretty much nothing, and Brooks isn't making noise.
I've noticed lately that Brooks seems to be over pursuing on plays and taking himself out of them.

Aldon Smith does have that effect on people.

Put Larry in. He's better.
You want him to take your spot, you go give it to him.
Thank you.
I know this probably was mentioned many times but I love the fact that after Miller burned us a few times we had Grant cover his ass 1 on 1 the rest of the way and boy did he man up and shut down Miller!

Feels great to drive to work today.
Hate to say I told you but not really. Me and Susweel guaranteed this victory. Some of you just have no faith.

I like waking up knowing my team is one game away from securing a #2 seed a first round bye in the playoffs.

we won by 17. the Steelers only pts were from a 51 yd FG that barely squeaked over. I dont want to hear about what "wouldve" happened if this guy played, or Ben was healthy, etc. Harrison was out, so was Willis. Roethlisberger plays up his injuries like a drama queen for the attention. he might not have had his scrambling ability tonight, but he was making his throws just fine. he threw for over 300 yds. he just made bad deciscions due to all the pressure we put on him. had he been healthy the final might have been 20-10 or 20-13.
Steeler fans are going to blame the blackouts, the injuries, the suspensions, the refs, and anything else they can. But the fact is, we dominated the trenches on both sides of the ball, we forced turnovers, and we didnt turn the ball over ourselves. the Niners are the better team. healthy Big Ben, give them Harrison, give us Willis, we still win. after watching how we matched up tonight, I think we beat them IN Pittsburgh too. theres no excuses when you get dominated in the trenches. Aldon Smith might as well have been DeMarcus Ware to the Steelers OL. he was unstoppable.
This.
