OT Steelers Game thread
- Thread starter pittbb80
- Start date
The problem I have is if you realized you needed to keep the and take that risk why take the air out or the ball earlier It’s inconsistent. They needed to keep trying to score They were shredding the saints D through the air and had them on their heels. They have them momentum back.
So
Let’s recap.
It took a bailout 4th down penalty to give New Orleans a chance to take the lead.
Which again proves the field position didn’t matter
If butler is back there will be no playoffs in tomlins future with the Steelers
They don't find different ways to lose each week. But no I am counting on Baltimore to do away with New England. Baltimore is the only team I have confidence in to not go up to Foxboro and piss all over themselves
The Steelers lost because they're stupid coach Mike, Mike, Mike, wake up Mike, called a fake punt late in the 4th Q
instead of punting and relying on his D which was playing good!
8-7-1 seasons get coaches fired. Unless they make changes to the D staff things won’t change next year
2 fumbles
A bailout 4th down penalty to keep the saints alive to take the lead
Sober up
So your saying with Butler this defense will suddenly start making key stops to win games next year ? Lol
Baltimore has gone up there and spanked Brady and Belichick before and that was when they were younger and better. Ravens might retire Brady if they hit him the way they hit Rivers last night.
You guys win, you’re right, that call had absolutely no impact on the outcome of the game.
I am not upset about the call at all, more upset about some of their 3rd and short calls and formations and player personnel. But I also realize that the outcome easily could have been different if the Saints had to go 90 yards instead if 50.
56,465 worthless posts!
I see why you support Tomlin he's similar to you!
Worthless!
You saw how shaky Brady looked when Pittsburgh's non existent pass rush got in his face? Just imagine how frightened he would be going against Baltimore's pass rush?
It will depend on Ben and how they use their cap. If Ben comes back and the Steelers use Bell's money to sign a quality FA's (good CB and ILB), then they will.
Or if Ridley doesn’t fumble .
Or juju doesn’t fumble
Or the saints weren’t gifted 7 points by the refs to start the game.
Or If Ben scores a td instead of setting for fgs in the first half.
Or if the refs call the saints wr a catch and fumble , instead of incomplete.
Lots of variables
I made a wager offer based on your opinion tomlin will be in trouble.
You can take it or not
All good points, and the Saints LT should have been called for a false start on the run they scored their second TD. He is the one who made the key block on that play as well.
That doesn’t mean Belichek can’t game plan around a rookie running qb. I’m not saying it will happen I just don’t see anyone going into Foxboro and winning.
So if tomlin doesn’t make the playoffs the next two years your saying he won’t be in trouble. Missing three years in a row would place him directly on the hot seat if not fired
Never said he was going to be in trouble next year.
That’s the beauty of the NFL and their parity. I could list plays in each game they lost that would have given the Steelers a W. And the opposite is true, W’s turned to L’s.
Which is why you don’t take your foot off the gas with their crappy d and a potent saints offense Just flat out dumb
Most coaches don't have a SB win along with two appearances. Tomlin has earned a long leash. Ben's inevitable retiring probably gives him more time.
Ok Mr obvious, great observations by you here. All irrelevant to my stance that it’s illogical for someone to state the fake punt call had zero impact on the game.
The irony is of the same posters who celebrate mediocre Pitt coaches because of stability-
Yet 12 seasons for tomlin and never a losing a season- and they want him gone
