What’s With The No Standing Rule ?

When did the “No standing” rule take effect ?
Bad enough that most of the people who sit in our section sit on their hands throughout the game, but if you stand up on 3rd down and make noise apparently you’re in violation of some stadium policy. There really is a big generational divide amongst the Pitt fan base…the kids are fantastic, but these boomers, geez

Good article about McGlynn's Relationship with EH

He's a pretty decent QB for a kid that is better suited to play TE. :cool:

A Bit Overlooked...

is the play of the WR corps.....its been a while since Pitt's receivers as a whole, have made so many solid catches, in traffic, when getting hit, etc., as a whole. Sure Addison by himself was spectacular, but it seems the whole group is making tough catches. I would think Bell's offense, which spreads things out, and is uptempo, causes the ball to be spread around a lot in practice, which makes for a lot of focus. I mean,who wants to drop the ball when they get the opportunity kinda thing during the week. Just an observation.

Young NFL QBs

Other than Stroud, most of the young QBs dont look very good.

Nix was less than impressive. Seemed antsy in the pocket and flushed way to quickly (where have we seen that before) and despite being a pretty good athlete he goes down way too easy. Looked better when they ran more of a hurry up and he didnt have to think too much.

Williams, Levis, all looked pedestrian. Lawrence has flashes mixed with terrible play.

Just further evidence that finding the "Franchise" Qb is fools gold. Surround a decent QB with good skill players and a solid OL and you'll spend the same amount of money or less and get better results.
