Just got home from the game at Fed Ex Field and I can say from my personal experience that I've never seen Steeler Fans Invade and Conquer another teams stadium like we did tonight. No past Steeler fan turnout in Baltimore, Jacksonville or Carolina could come close to what I experienced at an away game.

There was an easy 40+% Steeler fan turnout for the game and the Redskins fans didn't know what the hell hit them with the sea of Black and Gold that showed up to take over Fed Ex.

The defense was absolutely lights out and made for one enjoyable evening.

I was there as well, It almost felt like the Steelers were the home team!

And if that onside kick had worked the way we wanted it to, Tomlin would have been labeled "gutsy" - in this game, you're either a hero or a goat - tonight it was goat. Hopefully they learned from it and the next time Reed will do a better job of selling it!

I don't mind the call of a surprise onside kick....I just didn't agree with doing on the opening kickoff.....But Tomlin does have a ton of confidence in his defense and that is why he made the call....But if the Skins happen to score a TD on that short field then it could have really gave the Skins offense momentum.........

Good call but not the right situation in my opinion.....

As predicted... the Redskins running game was held in check which put the ball in Campbell's hands and they lost!
