Game Day thread - Steelers vs. Browns Episode II

Can someone please explain why Blake is playing instead of Cockrell?
 
But he can ******* quit trying to run with scrubs ala the ravens playoff game last year.... we NEVER get backups ready to play since FWP in 07 Tomlin has one guy who carries the load , gets hurt late, and typically we have no one behind them.... most teams have three rbs that can be a little effective... we lucked out this year and had two, but even when Bell and Williams were both healthy Williams never saw the field..... last week when asked about it Tomlin gave that "don't live in our fears nonsense" ... he is just past due for accountability on his many dumb decisions if we miss the playoffs.... there are issues on D and O, and that isn't all on one player

Where does Colbert fall in this stellar evaluation? It is his and the scouting department's job to find said RB talent
 
Blake with a second trick?? WHAAAAA???

Blake on a Blitz? Obviously a coverage sack...
 
Much needed sack
 
Blake should again be a safety not a CB... he can hit, he can sit on routes... he cant cover well enough
 
If the Bills win, and we lose, there is no way that the Steelers organization can not heat up Tomlin's seat a little. That would truly be embarrassing..
 
On him but if he keeps dropping them, then coaching for leaving him in when he is hurting the team. Just like keeping Blake in.
There seems to be someone else hurting the team as well...........

We ran 4 times when Williams got hurt. I don't think it would hurt either way.
 
Bills first and 10 at the 50

Wouldn't know since when we do have guys who look interesting in the preseason or stashed on the roster they NEVER gets a shot till he is forced to play them... and that's through two OCs now
 
Even if this team does back into the playoffs, does anyone see them going anywhere really?
 
Even if Buffalo wins, I don't want to see this Steelers team in the playoffs. The team that beat Cincinnati on the road was a tease.
 
Bills driving - 1st down at Jets 33
 
Who thinks we have to get at least a FG before half?

Well, it seemed that when it came to TOMLIN'S accountability for this alleged lack of RB talent, you were pretty sure. Yet now, when Colbert (The freakin GM) is brought into the equation, you don't know? Interesting.
 
Bills 1st down at the 20
