All the opposition is now doubling Price and we have absolutely no one else to get pressure on the QB. This is not helping the CBs. We could be two games better in the win column if he was not hurt. All indications were that he was as good if not better than Price during spring ball and approaching the season. The recruiting class needs to get better in a hurry for this team to make improvements in '18 and '19.

Totally agree. Hendrix was a huge loss. And yesterday his backup got hurt.
 
I saw a total breakdown on Offense & Defense and even missed Kick. Although I agree with you about losing Hendrix is great observation. I also think losing Soto, Jarrett along with Price being hurt 2 Games ago, really hurt the DLs, and there was no pass rush all game long, poor tackling, and still breakdowns by DBs, but they did improve in the Second Half, but then the Offense just made too many mistakes and Turnovers too?

Even with Hendrix, it was the Offense that finally cracked and Defense was spent in the last Miami TD too.

All Pitt Fans pretty much thought in the Unknown Preseason it was a tougher TOSS UP Schedule for 2016, and that is till true! Pitt is continuing to rebuild and it begins by crawling like it did 1996-2000, walking 2000-2014, and now jogging 2015-16 and to running beyond in the future.

Pitt has had ups and down close wins and losses, with some blowouts, but that is how programs rebuild, and how Teams learn it.

So Little Done So Much More To Do!

Yeah. Yesterday's loss was the first I think that should be put on the offense. They absolutely could've kept us in the game or won it for us in a shootout. The defense has been bad And has a ton of injuries. The offense needed to step up yesterday and didn't.

The D gave up 51 and you want to blame the O?
 
The o is completely healthy. The d was devastated by injuries. They had the henderson fumble which led to seven and several three and outs that led to points. If the offesne handled its business we win that game.
