Good start...Warren running well

Defense making stops

Perfect throw up high to the big man for a TD...

Refs are flag happy, but most have gone the Steelers way

Watt FINALLY gets a sack

Third down defense ******* sucks....Holcomb has GOT to make that play on 4th down

terrible ******* drive to start the 3rd..**** A aron...

Heyward with some huge plays, sack, tipped pass that was picked and the forced fumble at the goal line...pay the man his money

where the hell did the offense go after the first two drives?

damn

can't run, can't pass defense it tired as hell

finally a drive in the 4th QTR and CAIII shows up with a big TD catch - told y'all in the game thread he was waiting for the right moment

finally a 4th down stop

love the W but lots of work on both sides

turnovers won the day today but lots of ****** 3rd and 4th down plays by our expensive ******* defense

offense looked good on 3 drives...sucked on every other one

give Rodgers time and he can beat the defense....give Warren a crease and he can make plays

OL still has to be better and the D needs to make stops on 3rd down

5 ******* turnovers and only 21 points.....,
 
My initial thoughts are that we aren't very good and that the Patriots snatched defeat from the jaws of victory.

I certainly hope we can get better. I don't see how we get much worse. At least we didn't give up 30 points.

The football gods didn't want the Pats to win this game.
 
Warren's stats aren't flashy, but he's the MVP of the offense through 3 games.

The offensive line had some good moments today.

Rodgers made three of his best throws of the season...both TD passes and the 20+ yarder to Smith.

The rush defense looked a bit better today.

Loved the splash plays from the defense, that was the difference between a win and a loss today.

Another game against a bad team the Steelers were statistically dominated. Right now they are nothing more than a mediocre team that found a way to win two games. Better than losing them, but this team has a long way to go to play to its potential.

Warren's stats are below the line. Was the rookie inactive today?
 
I didn't see most of the 1st half. Did we simply take our foot off the gas? Did the defense start to get gassed after a couple quick possessions and the idiotic run to the other end to pose for the cameras after a negated turnover?..Dumbassasours.....Make good plays look like it's no big deal...

They are not a good football team. Period.
 
Broderick Jones is laughably bad. Our receivers can’t get open. Our D can’t stop the other team on 3rd down. Play calling attrocious. Loved seeing Harmon in there disrupting and getting a sack. We can’t lose to Carson Wentz. But we probably will…

How you can keep trotting a Jones out there defies all logic. But typical of Steelers FIrst round guys who bust.
 
A win is a win, but this team is not very good. We got 5 TOs and barely squeaked out a win against a mediocre team. Rodgers was ok except for one terrible pass. The Oline was ok which is a step up. The defense was jekyl and hyde. Harmon had a solid debut. Not sure what else to take away from this game other than we won.
 
Arthur Smith is a terrible OC! Oh how I miss the days of 4 & 5 wide!

Keanu Benton shouldn't even get a helmet on gameday if he continues to play like he did today! Was effective on 2 plays the entire game!

Still no running game!

We were in 4 and 5 a couple of times IIRC. Outside of DK seems like they all have trouble for long stretches of being able to get open.
 
There were positives. The biggest one was our coaching staff going for the end zone rather than playing for a FG. I thought they were going to run it for sure. We needed the 7.

Yeah with 3 frikkin TE's....LOL. The whole point of going spread is to create space in the Defense....how the **** do you do that with our TE's? Not like these guys are running 4.45.
 
My thoughts are that after three weeks, we’re tied for first in the Division. It could be a lot worse. Still lots of time left to turn things around. Enjoy the journey.
 
The Browns won, the Vikings scored 48 points, and the Steelers stalled out and barely got the win.

Ugly wins count but this team is doomed if they can’t get it together
Yes. We already know this team can win ugly and make the playoffs. We also know what they look like in playoff games.
