Payton Wilson

Yeah they were gashing us for 60 yards on 22 carries. Pathetic. Fire Tomlin.
Yeah that’s a crazy stat line

Watching the game it sure felt like they were running effectively at times, definitely felt like
more than 60. There were some good negative plays for sure. Felt a lot closer to 100, I guess that’s just a product of being in a close game so the perception of their offense sure felt like they were operating more efficiently than the stat line shows in both rushing and passing.

It’s way too soon to start the Fire Tomlin talk, he’s just getting acclimated to the speed of the game…geez the guy’s barely got his feet wet. In all seriousness another good outing by Coach T, great game plan all the way around. Out coached his good buddy.
 
I don't super watch him, but he has been toasted a couple times & he really does get caught over-pursuing semi-often...to me, he regressed a tad
 
Personally …
I would use 41 as Jackson’s shadow Sunday...
Wherever 7 goes… 41 goes..
He has the skill sets to be successful in that role..
I wouldn’t play him much at all unless necessary.

Henry would eat his lunch,
I suspect we’ll see a lot of the Queen/Roberts combo that seems to be putting it together.

Maybe slip him in a few plays if Herbig isn’t on the field but I’d stick with the 2 better options at stopping the run and make Lamar beat us with his arm. Herbig and 41 together is just asking for Henry to gash em.
 
The Steelers were playing a really good running QB yesterday and they made the rookie have his worst game. Probably a lot to ask a rookie LB to play that style to neutralize such a playmaker. He probably won't play much next week either.
The excuse machine spit out that his ribs were still sore so that's why he didn't put 100 on us. In other related news we are still not contenders....most of the talking jock stains are "still not convinced"

When we beat the Rats the excuse will be " They are so familiar with the Ravens this wasn't a true test...they need to play K.C. or Buffalo in the playoffs then we'll get a better idea."

In all honesty until degenerate Mike steps into the playoff ring and emerges victorious most will question him, hopefully he keeps his edge/hunger come playoff time and doesn’t revert to turtle ball Mike.

It’s a what have you done for me lately league, and lately he hasn’t won too many playoff games and in the playoffs the Chiefs and Bills look on a different level than the 1 and done playoff Steelers.

Here’s to hoping this year is different, it certainly feels like it so far. Russ has something to prove, Cam and Watt gotta be hungry, Najee playing for a contract and a HC that has become an unpredictable degenerate. Things certainly feel different for this squad.

On Sunday, Queen and Wilson should be interchangeable... Roberts will have to play every down that Henry is on the field.

Lest we all forget...

PQ knows that playbook and that should bode well for us.

Queen is a better run defender at this point than Wilson, and sure don’t won’t Wilson and Herbig out there together.

Queen should play until he needs to tap out and get a breather from Wilson and then put Preston in for Herbig when Wilson comes in

I wouldn’t consider 41 nearly interchangeable with Queen yet, especially as Queen is coming on.

I like Wilson but he ain’t ready for Henry imho

Oh...I wasn't clear.

Interchangeable when spying LameR
 
Hmmmm... methinks that the Commanders had less than 100 yards rushing. Let me confirm that...
Two others have already called me out on that. 🤪

The real test is winning in Feb

Sure, but we are in their heads. If they beat us this game it will give them confidence and possibly break our mental hold we have on them.
 
Made the best pick by a Steeler LB I’ve seen since Kirkland’s running full speed away from LOS

Been awhile since one like that!

Impressive and very much needed, dude can cover that’s for sure

I was really hoping for a fake FG up 15-10 tho 🤣

That is the best interception from a linebacker that I have ever seen.
Took the big catch from the rats receiver away.
What a play.
