One For the Other Thumb:
The Steelers would cut Jeff Reed?Please. Need I remind you that last week, he won the game for us and was AFC Special Teams Player of the Week?Or that he hasn't missed two field goals in one game, despite kicking at Heinz Field, in five years?I'm sorry, God. You made it rain yesterday. You're cut. I'm sorry, Mike Tomlin. I know you won a Super Bowl in only your 2nd season as Head Coach, but you lost the 2nd game of the season to an NFC opponent. You're cut. I'm sorry, Troy. You got hurt last week and Tyrone Carter got beat on the Bears 2 TDs yeterday.
You're cut.If the Steelers cut everyone who had an unfortunate game every now and then, the entire O-Line wouldn't exist.Now, about those Bengals...Obligatory Footer - If you haven't already, become a fan of OFTOT on Facebook, join the blog network and follow me and Steve on Twitter. Or don't. Your choice, really.

Jeff Reed has been one of the most consistent kickers in the NFL the last five seasons. But he missed two key fourth-quarter field goals Sunday before Robbie Gould connected on a 44-yarder to beat the Steelers 17-14. "Of course that's uncharacteristic of him," Steelers coach Mike Tomlin said.

Steelers Kicker Makes No Excuses for Two Critical Field Goals vs Chicago
For the Super Bowl champion Steelers, Jeff Reed has been Mr. Clutch, or Mr. Automatic over the years when it comes to key kicks at key moments. Sunday, let’s just say it was not one of his better days. Reed missed two critical fourth quarter field goals that would have likely pushed the [...]

Still in Shock
Okay, so Jeff Reed is one of the best and most consistent kickers in the NFL. Everyone has an off day, right? Right? Despite missing two game-changing field goals, I still would bet on Jeff Reed any day. Hey, at least we weren’t playing the Ravens, right? It’s been five years (since September 26, 2004) [...]
Opportunities Washed Away, Again and Again
That was about as maddening a game as the Steelers have had the last couple years. They came out on the opening drive and marched it down the Bears D for a touchdown, were doing much the same on the subsequent drive until a well-timed hit on Ben Roethlisberger by a Bears lineman forced a duck that was intercepted, sapping the Steelers of the considerable momentum they had going up...
Chicago Bears Report Card: Week Two Vs Pittsburgh Steelers
So it was an ugly win, but I will take it.
First off, "Good as Gould" is the greatest clutch kicker in Chicago Bears history. The man is money... Takes notes Jeff Reed.
Second, whatever was up with Soldier Field, either they need to fix the turf or the Bears should have been wearing longer cleats because people were slipping and sliding as if they were on an ice rink.
Third, THAT...
