Stillers vs Pats
- Thread starter 9nationalchampionships
- Start date
The Steelers defense still pretty suspect. Patriots might be rusty initially since nobody played in the preseason. No Gronk should help the Steelers too. Still, Steelers O needs to be close to perfect. I'll say Pats 37-31.
I say New England wins...
37 - 24
While Antonio Brown may not be playing in the game, he will still have a HUGE impact upon it.
There is no way, NO WAY, that Bill Belichick has not already spoken to Antonio Brown about the Steelers play calling and tendencies. Yes, I do understand that they will have made adjustments, but those changes will be small when compared to the entire play book.
The information that Antonio can provide will give the Patriots a huge advantage now and later in the year, if the two teams should meet in the playoffs.
I dunno. Anyone else yeah. AB, I think he just sorta went out for passes and Ben scampered around and flung in his general direction. I think the Patriots are pretty aware of this sophisticated scheme. Plus, i think Belichick probably warned Rosenhaus to "keep that freak far far away from me. "
The only way to stop New England from doing all these pick plays is to have one of our linebackers run right through one of those picking receivers and knock their damn block off. When Belichick loses Edelman or Gordon or James White for a few games, he may actually try something else.
Anyone that thinks we can beat the patriots hasn’t watched a single game against them. We can’t win in Boston. We can’t beat Tommy Boy
The lack of talent in the secondary and at the linebacker spot is concerning.
Not even mentioning our receiving corps. Which has greatly suffered since we lost AB

Pittsburgh sports this year... yikes. But then you look at some of the guys we have running the shows, and it starts to make sense.
Ben looks like Pickett so far. Let's only get him a single series in the next preseason, too.

Roethlisberger doesn’t play that well on the road vs home, at least from what I have seen in recent years. Seems like that sandlot style doesn’t travel well
Benny Pickett and the gang might lose by 40 tonight. Unfortunately, it will take more of this before people sincerely grasp how poorly-coached this team is.
I think this is how the game will go for Pitt vs PSU. One team knows it's better and will win but they want to do more than win, they want to physically destroy and demoralize the opponent. The other team thinks it could win but knows it will probably lose and is terrified of getting humiliated yet again.
One team is tight and apprehensive and the other is aggressive and fast.

They tried already and got blasted. We are getting trashed on both lines. We can't block ANYONE.
