Im not sure I can get past half next week

if I was not a moderator I would stay off the site for a few days after a loss....

I wished I could coolie but this site is a lot of what my entertainment is. I love this ploace but also know that I have thick skin and don't focus on the negativity.

Sure, I spout off occasionally but usually it's just an overload on the steam, once released I get back to positive.

Agreed. This will be death by 1000 cuts. They can't get ANY pressure. They can't cover the middle of the field. Do the math.
I didn't say they would win, just that it would be more watchable.
 
Some real fans saw this coming a few years ago, or more

A-N-D

See it into the future, at least 2 years worth of future..............

W-A-I-T-

There ay be a sacrificial OC in there as well...........................

The positives i came away with:

1. Kenny Picket is the real deal. I saw some really good stuff from him. I would have liked Trubisky to be this way, and Let kenny sit for a while. But He did well.
2. Running game wasnt great, But Jaylen Warren Needs a lot more touches. Not sure what coaches are looking at.
3. Matt Milano was a 5th rd pick. Id take him in a second. I doubt if the bills would trade straight up for our #1 pick MLB.
4. George Picket will be a force in the NFL if he can keep his act together .
5. Gentry could use more targets,, He's huge, catches the ball and runs north south.. Not taking anything away from Pat Friermuth.
6. Leal is a gem. Didnt see Loudermilk today, not sure his status. But leal was very good. Cam too, cant say much about the other DL.
7. Nice pick by wallace.
The coaches, mainly Tomlin, are looking at players' draft status to determine who plays. He always has. Harris was a first round pick and Warren was a UDFA. Barring injury, it doesn't matter how bad Harris (or Bush or DJ or Claypool) sucks, he WILL play. If Harris didn't have a foot we probably wouldn't have seen Warren or Zeppo Watt at all.

This is a dead on post.
 
I took my aggression out on pulling weeds and mowing leaves and the lawn. It partially worked. But I found myself trying to run over everything. I just made a Kahlua sprinkled with coffee. I plan to sit out back with a Jack and coke later. I have to check my liquor supply and make sure I have plenty.


It is going to be a long season.

On a positive note I still have both feet and my mower still works.

Whew.
Had no idea you were so tight with Lambert and Ham.......... stay away from that white powder though ..... it will f... you up ...........Slash

Oh, i totally agree. I just dont understand how they can continually repeat this week in week out. It's crazy. Its like Politics and the media.
 
Just go take a look at the stat sheets to see how Pickett is better than Trabisky … yeah no Tds yet ( remember how when Rudolph was starting two years ago and some of us were saying his pass efficiency in producing tds was very rare for a first time starter.. it was like 5% td ratio? Yeah new qbs don’t often come out scoring at will) but his ypa is closer to 7 than 5 … and a ton of big plays and first downs have been muffed by the wrs..

I predict it will be like the last time this happened. Tomlin will say that he will hold people accountable and changes will be made, then the next week the same lineup gets trotted out with the only changes being the assistant laundry boy gets fired and the ping pong table is taken away.

This is the 2022 remake of “unleash hell”
 
I gutted it out looking for progress with K.P. today and I saw many NFL quality throws. Lots to build on. But watching Brady go 26-30 for 4 bills and 4 TDs next week dicing the Steelers over the middle might he too much.
If we survived the 80s pre-free agency you can survive a couple of years of bad football. These days you can turn a football team around in a few years....oh wait...Tomlin is our coach. Never mind.

I agree with your entire assessment except for Warren. I like the kid, but a lot of the runs you saw toward the end were in garbage time when the Bills were expecting pass, pass, pass. Guys aren't trying to tackle as hard as they don't want to get hurt at a meaningless point in the game. Warren is still a tough runner don't get me wrong, but earlier when it still mattered he ran into a brick wall just like Najee. The problem is obviously the O-line.

TB is only 7.5 point favorites. Are you ******* kidding me!

Fornette and Brady could switch positions and they’d beat the Steelers by more than that.

At some point he will be gone. We will get a real coach and all these people will be like oooopps.

I'd take that for sure. They will score 28 min. How the **** will this offense score even 17. You won't get turnovers on Brady.
 
Watching quick slants with Bush 5 yards behind.
They dont have to throw a single pass....Just plow away w/ Fournette. I know they will not do this, but I honestly think we couldnt stop it. TB is not as good as Buffalo, but I still think it will not be pretty
