Steelers-Lions prediction thread #ItawtItawApuddyTat!"

Slash ........did you see that Ben was taking tomorrow off ......... new Tiebreaker ????

or is the standard the standard ......... I did edit ....but stuck with my original prediction numbers in the spirit of competition
Different QB but the standard is the standard, obviously.
 
I'm just stuck.!



Salute the nation
 
This is why I wait to see the full injury report. Ben out changes some things, along with the depletion of our WR corps. Good thing we're at home. I think we prevail with a low scoring game of 14 - 13. Mason throws for 210 yards.
 
Steelers 48
Lions 17

Mason throws for 388 and 4 TD's....Steeler nation has no idea what the **** just happened and a QB controversy no one ever saw coming is now on the table...
 
Key is the turn-overs. Man would I love to see them open it up. Will it be quick 2 yard passes and Naj all game?
With Mason.......will he be in shotgun all game long......or will we have a real playaction under center look?
Will Mason be able to move about in the pocket,avoid the rush? Or will he look like he has cement in his cleats?
Will SteelerNation give Mason a fair shake? Let him get some rust out? Or will every other comment be.....this is what it will look like for the next 20 years.
Even though it’s looked completely average for the last 5+ years.
We miss JuJu.
Should be interesting.

D......pressure,pressure,and more pressure. Non stop.

26-16 B&G

Mason throws for 214. They settle for FG’s.
 
Steelers 13
Liedowns 10

Our offense has been bad, they're complete trash. Play aggressive defensively and we win. If they sit back in soft zones and don't pressure Goff we will lose this game.
 
All we have to do is get the Lions in 4th and long and Goff will throw it away.
 
I've seen this script before, a Tomlin lead team that should dominate, but loses horribly to a bad team. Bad coaching/game management plus offensive turnovers dooms us once again. Probably some key defensive injuries to. Hopefully I'm wrong, but I've seen it happen to many times under Tomlin to be a fluke. PLEASE, OH HOLY OF FOOTBALL gods, MAKE IT NOT HAPPEN AGAIN! PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE
A lot of us knew the game was going to play out this way. Even with Ben out, it should've been an easy win. Until Tomlin is gone, it will continue to happen. I guess a tie is better then a loss, but it doesn't feel like it.

Well, they didn't lose but bad coaching/game management - check; offensive turnovers - check; key defensive injury (Watt) check.
 
Let's see: Spread 0; 32 total points; Rudolph for 242 yards. I'd say the contenders are:
>>slashsteel Steelers 20 - Detroit 19. Rudy throws for 208 [Spread 1; 7 high on total points; 34 yards low on Rudolph]
>>speedicut Steelers 20 Lions 17 Ben throws for 204 [Spread 3; 5 high on total points; wrong QB]
>>mdk2 Lions - 17 Steelers - 14 Ben 189 yards [Spread 3; 1 low on total points; wrong QB]
>>ExUSAF Steelers 14 - 13. Mason throws for 210 yards. [Spread 1; 5 low on total points; 32 yards low on Rudolph]

I'd say it's between slashsteel and me but I was closer in total points and yards by Rudolph. And the verdict is....

I think picking the winner kinda trumps everything else so I'd go with mdk2.

I play but can never win. I will look but what I do is go by point differential then tiebreaker.
 
Lions - 17
Steelers - 14

Ben 189 yards
Here is the winner this week congrats. USAF you were 2 point off a tie. Close though!
