Steelers, J-E-T-S Game Day Thread

I think people are getting over the never a losing season thingy and focusing on the no winning playoff thingy

All I am saying though is....think about it. 18 years...non losing....

I have thought about it. I am over it.
Think about a non losing season for 18 years or another Super Bowl. I don't think you need to think about it

They will be good. It may take a few weeks.

Same goes for the “D”, it will take a game or two to/ three.

There was some improvement even in this game.

The Jets OC called a very good game VS this crap defensive scheme.



Salute the nation

Tomlin has to be at least on board w/ the 2 DL sets. If he didnt like / want them he would at least tell Austin not to use them especially against run heavy teams.

If Austin is actually calling this defense, we are in a hella hurt.

It’s Tomlin dictating the scheme and putting his stamp on the game plan.

Austin makes the calls, but through Tomlin’s head-set.

Yikes, Tomln. Terrible choice of words.

"Our kicker is a serial killer," Tomlin told reporters. "He’s got a low-pulse rate. He can’t wait to deliver."

I will 100% not watch a Raven/Packer Superbowl. It would be the first one I’ve ever missed.

And Warren has loose hands also....so what do you do? You drafted him high for a reason. No? Giving him one carry was mind boggling. Maybe he is in Tomlin's doghouse for some reason only k own to Tomlin.

He is in the dog house. It has been well reported he is struggling to be effective in pass protection in practice and won’t see the field much until he learns. Otherwise it would a too obvious what is coming and they will just stack the box. I don’t blame him for that fumble today that was a perfect tackle.

18 years is a very long time. I think you are over looking the Tomlinship angle. Sadly. A great feat. Never done before from a start of a coaching career.

I have no problem with that. Great metaphor.

Yep....pass protection...I get it. Lol

The last few years they didn't seem to care if the defense knew what was coming. What makes this year different? Yet giving a rookie RB a series or 2 who is sub par in pass protection is out of the question because it would insinuate that we would only be running if he is in there.

Well. He might never get better at pass protection. Or only slightly better. Such a high draft wasted perhaps. Well at least we have him for KO duties luckily.

When Harris was in there the last few years we ran on 1st down like 90% of the time. 2nd down like 85% of the time. Now if we put a rookie in there who is subpar in pass protection we are giving the defense to much of a tell tale.

What if he is subpar in pass protection but superior in actually running the ball?

He is a rookie who came from a run only team. Have some patience. He will get his shot. We have way too little patience anymore.
