**** everything and everybody on the offensive side

defense played ok - mostly but gave up some big plays - what the **** was the safety doing on that long TD pass? Hope Minkah is okay soon

Hope Kenny is not hurt too bad

**** canada and **** those ****** ******* refs
 
Tomlin will throw the monkeys in the media some platitudes, they won’t ask any tough questions and all of them will go on believing it’s gonna be ok. This **** is ridiculous. How can you watch this **** week after week and not change a damn thing?

Defense played ok?? Did you watch the game?
Blame the refs for the entire team being bad outside of TJ? Defense is trash against the run and pass.
They have been bad all year on the defensive side also. As bad as the offense. Outside of Tj and a fluke turnover differential they are bottom of the barrel both sides of the ball.

yes i watched the game

the three TOs mixed with the ****** run D made it OK in my book

other than the big play where the safety totally ****** up they did enough to win this game
 
The standard is....just bad. Despite his gift of an INT, Kazee was atrocious in coverage. Horrible angles, bad timing, couldn't locate the ball in the air. Just bad.

It seems like we no longer run stunts, not even for Watt. He's on an island on his own, we can't even take advantage of when they layer block him with 3 guys.

There was very little attempt to get Pickens the ball today. And how his Williams getting targets over Washington?!

**** Canada, **** the refs, **** these fines...
 
You knew it was going to be one of those games once again when Johnson dropped that deep ball on the first play.

It's always something with the offense, but it's always at least the pass protection.

Pickett gets hit like every pass play, it seems, and Trubisky was getting roughed up back there too. It's kind of amazing Kenny hasn't gotten hurt more in his career to this point.

If Broderick Jones is honestly not better than the guys playing in front of him, something is wrong.
 
I expected more today, Jacksonville has had our number, and we laid a big egg once more.. Takes two periods to get a first down, back up QB scrambles and has the longest run of the game at time. , You are in the game and give up a no contested fifty-five-yard TD, second and 21 and we allow a run for 35 yards. How many times did Jacksonville had second and third and two yards , this team has a hard time getting off the field under this scenario.

We gave up 20 points with the Jags being aided by the refs. That is pretty good in my book especially considering how much they were on the field.
 
Wash,rinse, and repeat. It’s the same schtick every ******* season under the leadership of Prince Tomlin. This guy has single handedly reset the bar that was once measured by excellence to mediocrity.
This offense is historical bad! I don’t remember the last time I saw an offense so bad. Notice our pass patterns where it seems like our receivers are covered by at least two defenders every passing down. Or the receivers are bunched up. That’s poor scheming and not knowing how to exploit an opponent weakness and not putting your guys in the best matchups.
We all know Canada is a fraud but the bigger fraud is Tomlin. Totally mediocre which seems to be the norm with this owner.
 
So the refs screwed us in the first half but everything else was pretty much the same. Abysmal offense all the way around. Canada is the OC and I can't stand him but our offensive personnel is just that. Our defense is keeping us in games but they give up allot of yards/time of possession.
 
Reality. At some point the Tomlin generation ends. No chance it is with another SB and a lot of people will have to admit to themselves that it was a colossal waste of time. If he cannot forsee this offense shouldn't have been led by this OC what the **** is he? Jesus Belichek will be out soon. He has more SB's then Tomlin has playoff wins since Tomlins only. I can only hope I live a long life. Long enough to see this team competently led.
 
One of the many things that annoyed me about the game today was during the 2nd quarter, the Steelers had 9 total yards, and the jagoffs ripped off 2 straight plays for 9 yards each, and it looked really easy.

It feels like we're out manned and out coached every week.

The Steelers allow 21 pts per game average. There are 18 teams that allow more.
We are in the middle of the pack.

We allow way too many yds. though. 3rd worse.
But who cares if they cant score on you.
 
At one point in the 3rd we had 91 yards and that was with a 93yrd drive so that tells you how good the other drives were. We did have a dropped pass and an underthrown pass early, but those things happen to every team. Just no excuse for the offense
