Steelers - bengals first matchup -game thread

Tomlin didn't want to risk a throw at the end of the half. I understand why he played conservative.

I remember Pickens taking prime field position away from a stupid celebration that he didn't need to do.

Unfortunately Tomlin isn't a HC who prioritizes discipline. History has shown us this. We don't have leaders on this team to handle it either unfortunately as in years past. History has shown us this also.

We won though. All is good.
 
 
Russ with 414 passing yards and we needed all of them. Won in spite of the Punk (JPJ). 9-3.

Defense is concerning. Minkah has been m-i-a for a while now. Teams seem to know how to take TJ out of the game now. Need Highsmith back.

Why won’t they use MWilliams or PSmith more? Those guys have good pedigree.

Should have been a flag. Refs missed it. I am ok with Porter. He plays aggressive. He will get calls against him at times. I will never want to take that away from him. Hopefully he grows as a player and such infraction because less and less.

Porter needs the bench for a few games. 5 penalties today. Two of those set the bungles up at the 1 yardline. If they would have lost this game today,he would have been a huge contributing factor to it.
 
Steelers clinch the Tomlin Bowl with 9 wins.

The D was pretty bad especially JPJ but it was a good win. Score was closer than it should have been as the officials literally gave the Bungholes 7 on the pick-6 that should have never happened due to a penalty on the Bunghole player who intercepted it. Even Gene Staratore agreed. This will be yet another apology from the league. Seems like we get an apology every week.

Too much to expect that the village idiot comment wouldn't be made by you. Is Tomlin the GM now also and when did he become the GM?

He has a TON of say in who we pick. Stick to Pee Wee league as you don't understand the NFL. 🤡

If I don't ever give you the time of day again, it's because I don't have time for amateurs.

Worked out BUT WHY WERE WE EVEN TRYING TO GET A FIRST DOWN after the 2 Min warning !

on 2nd you take a knee and it runs down to 1:20.
on 3rd you take a knee and it runs down to :40.
On 4th you practically let it run out and take a penalty.

Really? Dude is out there balling play in and play out. Pickens now is just doing stupid stuff. Maybe they both should be sat down. I don't know. Half of the Porter stuff was iffy flag wise. Pickens stuff is simply idiotic.

Watt had 2 sacks....forced a fumble. He showed up today. Our HC and DC need to scheme a bit more on the defensive side feom here on out. They are not putting our players in the best position to help them succeed. Putrid game calling by our coaches defensively.

Balling? He's dragging g guys down in the endzone for no reason. He ******* sucks in coverage and is a penalty machine.

He needs to unfuck himself.
 
What exactly is Fitzpatrick getting paid for?! He never seems to play with any MOTIVATION of HUSTLE...Damn!! Plays like he is 39 yrs old like his jersey number

They got great interior pressure today and struck gold with some great blitzing. Which they rarely use. It got them a TD.
