Christmas Day Game Thread

[ZonaBurgh]

I'm going to help myself to some more prime rib. Browsing this thread seems like I choose wisely.

Having the same here, but it's not ready yet.

 

[Steelmann]

Not understanding why the game plan wasn't to make sure Kelce didn't beat you??

Perhaps you missed all the Gronkowski years?

 

[Cras108er]

we could have also challenged the play....

Sure. But that wasn't the difference, like you said.

 

[Ye Black Knight]

You're not seriously comparing Big Ben to Pat Mahomes are you??? You can't be serious??

Wait what? Big Ben was every bit the quarterback Mahomes is. Difference is Mahomes has an elite head coach guiding the team.

 

[jitter77]

guess we gave up

 

[TimesAreChanged]

I hate to be a pessimist especially on Christmas but I think this one is about over. And the bad news is Baltimore plays next with a chance to take 1st place in the AFCN.

Still plenty for which to be grateful

 

[Troglodyte]

WTF, go for it on 4th and 20, punt on 4th and 2?

 

[Steelersfan84]

Just know Reid wasn't winning anything until Mahomes came along. He had great qbs prior and didn't win anything. If you think Tomlin wouldn't have the same success with Mahomes as his QB then I got a sunny beach in Antartica to sell you.

Argue all you want.

Reid built ALL of his sb teams. How many has Tomlin built?

 

[Litos]

How couldn't they convert on thatv3rd and 2, several routes available for a quick pass. Then najee jumped like he were a 50 years old fat ****.

And why kick on 4th down losing by so many points?

 

[Fiji Mariner]

So if ya punt there
Obviously ya pull every player of significance right cuz that was the give up play

 

[jitter77]

If we gave up why keep our guys in there

Are we talking the same Big Ben that stunk it up in his last several playoff appearances. Folks like to blame Tomlin, but Ben had the exact same record over that period. And he had some abysmal playoff performances.

 

[steelcan58]

Injuries or not, the Steelers have been totally exposed the last 3 games. Terrible execution and terrible coaching. I mean, how can Tomlin be so bad throwing or not throwing the red flag year in and year out. His own players signaled it was incomplete and it was obviously incomplete. My guess is they don't win another game this year. The Bungholes will blow them out next week and then they will lose on the road in the first round of the playoffs.

The draft this go around must be DL, WR, DL (yes, double dipping here is a must), and RB with the first 4 picks and in that order.

I think we need a Safety early too either this draft or next for Minkah's replacement.

And bye bye Najee. Thank goodness we didn't pick up his 5th year or extend him.

 

[Punxsutawney]

Tomlin had a HOF QB before…1 SB

How many has Reid got already with his QB????


Would we be better with Mahomes, sure.
But the results wouldn’t be as successful.

Mike would probably eeeek out 1 somewhere in Mahomes career tho, so there’s that

He wouldn't have won as many games as Reid did with Alex Smith or Donovan McNabb either. McNabb might have been the most overrated QB of the past 25 years.

How many Superbowls would Reid have won with Ben?

I think we forgot to cut our eyelids today.

Look on the bright side, there are 2 more games this season and we don't have to wait until the last regular season game to back into the playoffs.

They backed in last week.

Yes. I’m blaming Tomlin. I think I made that clear.

 

[Steelersfan84]

I'm completely over these guys. They had me fooled for a little this year. Never again.

Tomlin hasn't fooled me since 2015. I cheer for my team but Im not shocked by the outcomes.

You guys are the biggest laughing stock on this board...I'm not even going to address how ridiculously stupid and homerish you guys come off as in this thread. No one in their right mind is picking Big Ben over Pat Mahomes in a draft order. Their not even in the same conversation. I'm not even going to discuss this anymore.

 

[Roy92040]

It looks like the Steelers just threw in the towel

You so smart!

 

[tapeANaspirin2it]

Handoff to Najee. Yep, giving up.

 

[Lambert58]

Running with Harris when you down 19 points.

It is my opinion that Big Ben wins at least 3 Super Bowls if we hire a competent head coach after Cowher. Not counting the Super Bowl he won with Cowher.
