Steelers eagles preseason

[Vincent]

I think we can all clearly see he cannot win a single one-on-one battle...not one. OLB has always been a pivotal part of the Steeler 3-4 and he just cannot function.

One might expect more from a defense with 5 #1s and 3 #2s on the field at the same time.

True enough, but there's no denying as a whole this team has looked bad not just Jarvis.

The only bright spot is that the Eagles are a terrible preseason opponent. They are all tricks and pressure on both offense and defense which means you have to gameplan against them or look like ****. That is part of why it looks so bad.

The Eagles tricks excuse some of the bad play but it does not excuse the lack of pass rush.

I think it is pretty clear that the Steelers tried to work wheaton into the game plan early.......it was ugly and like the proverbial square peg vs round hole.......I would like to think that in the regular season we won't have such a game plan so I give somewhat of a pass for the bad play.....but not much of one.

He has a right to his opinion just like SuperSteeler has a right to blow Jarvis on page 2

Didn't say he didn't have a right to an opinion, did I? I think he sucks too but when a guy is in a thread posting the same complaint time and time again it gets old pretty fast,

Jarvis is just a symptom. The root cause is bad drafting / talent evaluation. We simply do not have enough talent to compete with the top 1/3 of the league.

My hope is that the rest of our division sucks and we can get in the playoffs anyway.

Should play DHB, too much inexperience with the young receivers. A Brown the only decent receiver.

 

[Super Dave]

Ugh...............we stink

Haley is trying to make Ben throw on time and Ben clearly can not do that. Ben's game is sandlot football.

We have never had a high scoring offense in Ben's 10 seasons, his playground style is great for highlight reels but results in inconsistent start and stops.

Steelers look bad on defense because they're playing vanilla *** zone and not showing anything of worth—prime circumstances for quick-paced Chip Kelly offense.

 

[6Rings]

Maybe we can score on their 3rd team Defense...

 

[Franco]

wing with another poor punt

 

[antdrewjosh]

Where is justin Brown and i hate that draw play. on that zone play Bell has to cut it up. The punter??? Jesus christ

 

[Zack_of_Steel]

Also, Jarvis Jones is ******* worthless.

 

[fogdoctor]

Their second string is trucking our first string.

 

[Franco]

So we aren't supposed to mention that Jarvis just got raped again ?

Sanchez making a case for first ballot HOFmer.

It is a game thread..........I remember Chicoman or maybe it was Turbo Pig........he was gloom and doom the entire game, every game.......Negative nancy as buckeye would put it.....but damn when the steelers won he was delirious......he wore his emotions on his sleeve....and it was like any bar room in Pittsburgh on Steeler Sunday.

Different Strokes for Different Folks.

Magic 8 ball says: Unlikely.

 

[Punxsutawney]

Preseason or not, this is embarrassing. Now their second team is working the Steelers' over.

 

[Zack_of_Steel]

The Steelers wasted multiple drives trying to force the ball to Wheaton and stopped running.

On defense they're dropping into vanilla zone and not running their real scheme.

Let's not act like they're playing a real game here.

 

[fogdoctor]

Jones did come back and make that play.

 

[steel shinin]

One thing that this team has going for it is even the future HOFs on this team have been called worthless pieces of **** on this board. In their primes.

 

[steelersfootball4life]

It's going to be 24 nothing here in a second.

 

[Steelers1356]

Put McCullers in, no push from the NT position.
