Game Day Thread - Packers vs. Steelers SNF

I think it could yet be historic - giving up more points than any Steeler defense has ever given up. What is the historic record? How about the entire NFL?
Bob Nutting called Deuce to tell him that he can still have a lousy team and spend a lot less money.
 
Even Harrison said he would have kept Pickens and let him emotionally mature and grow with the team, we took a big loss getting rid of pickens.
Pickens was never going to mature in this current team culture. Give the Pickens crap a rest already, he's gone and not coming back

I would have kept him for his last season here with AARon throwing the ball to him. Then after the season let him walk...but we didn't. And where the state of our franchise is at now....who really cares.
 
Boy this sure aged poorly after half-time. Maybe the defense can print up some shirts that say "30 minute men" or "The Wet Rice Paper Curtain"
You forget to factor in the 4th quarter collapse. Unfortunately the below post from me aged a lot better.
Remember, we're talking about the Steelers here. Almost guaranteed that the D will go to sleep for the last quarter, so need a few 7's to build some buffer.
Steelers now have the most fourth quarter points against per game this season at 11.7 - next worst is Giants and Cardinals at 10.9.
 
We were losing with still a chance to come back when he got hurt and fked up that play. Elliot botching that play was actually the final nail in the loss. The front line means squat without a decent safety with his eyes open in the back. D-line loses wind & momentum, CB's become tired and the whole team loses the clock and yardage when a safety can't check "one man" as in chase or kraft in two different games. This wouldn't have happened under polamalu's watch..
 
We were winning when he got hurt. He was not the issue. Without him we have no one who is a free safety just a bunch of guys better suited to in the box and then we have Jalen who may have to be our free.

Sorry, I don't agree one bit. Elliot has been a plus player for us. That one play aside he has not been the problem.
