Initial Thoughts bears Game

Franchise QBs are definitely important, as I kind of forgot about all the playoff games Tomlin won during last 8 or 9 years of Ben's prime. All three of them.

Regarding Harmon, if Dart becomes a top 10 QB for the next decade, it was the wrong pick, even if Harmon is an allpro type player.

All pro defensive lineman are just as a premium as a top 10 quarterback in my humble opinion.
 
If they get behind the Ratbirds by 2 games prior to the last game of the season, they should give Howard all 1st team reps and let him start and finish the game. Let's see what we might have before blindly reaching for a QB in the first, especially if they will be picking around 20.

I disagree with this. A DL can be taken out by doubling / running at / away from etc etc. I don't think you can fully scheme around a top QB especially one who can adlib like an Allen or mahomes. I don't think any gm would take a pro bowl DL over a top QB

Tomlin's teams only lost to the Patriots once in the playoffs, I believe.

The problem is they lost to teams with Tim Tebow and Blake Bortles at QB before they even got to Brady.

That Denver game was mind blowing. Tim Tebow 10/21 316 yards 2 td 0 ints, 10 carries 50 yards 1 td.

10 frigging completions for 316 yards.


Demaryius Thomas 4 catches for 204 yards 1 td.

To me it looked like a thrown game.

I dont think they lose that game with a healthy Antonio Brown....and i dont think they lose the other playoff game with a healthy Leveon Bell. If you only have one of the two to focus on it makes a lot easier for the defenses that's for sure.

Also, their last three playoff wins are against AJ McCarton ( probably should’ve lost), Matt Moore, and Alex Smith.

They have no control over who the opponents are. I assume if they're in the playoffs they had to have beaten 2-3 quality teams at minimum during the season to end up there.

Sanders,Brown and Miller all played. AB had 5 catches for 70 yards and 1 rush for 18. I'd say he was fine.Sanders had 6 for 81 yards.

Mike Wallace also played.

Isaac Redman had 17 rushes for 121 yards.


I'd say the defense **** the bed big time or the whole thing was a work.

It was certainly the beginning of a truckload of wtf games that would pile up until the last retarded 2 DL on the goal line bs.

My favorite record was the losing at home two weeks in a row to 2-10 teams.


There's no good way to spin this crap anymore, but i can't fire anyone or they'd already be gone. I'd invest in getting the best staff i could.

Brown didnt play in the Denver playoff game, but based off the fact my previous three comments were about football in the Pengujns hockey thread i might be confusing threads again.

Oh ok...I got the playoff games mixed up that Bell missed for the game that Antonio missed. I know Antonio had missed one of their playoff games after the bush league play by Burfict. I was thinking they played Denver following that game.

At least JuJu got some payback for AB.
