Steelers Vs Falcons 2024 wk 1 Gameday Thread

Why don’t we ever have any one wide open

We have had some. Fields has missed them.

 

[SCSteeler4life]

2 big calls against us. 10-14 point swing is huge.

 

[Phinnster]

Garbage officials giving them the game.

 

[MeanJim]

Why don’t we ever have any one wide open

because all intended receivers must be within 5 yards of the line of scrimmage

 

[SteelerFan448]

A soft push off costs the Steelers points and a possible bad call against Watt helps get the Falcons points.

 

[Steelmann]

Well……bottom line. As per usual we can’t score TD’s in the first half. Don’t care if it’s the first game. It’s been like this for 4+ years. The amount of times we have scored one TD or less in the first half the last 4 years is truly depressing.

Spending time with my daughter before she starts college, haven't been able to watch. Let me guess, the D went prevents for the 2min drills and got royally ****** ?

This is the same production from last year. Turtle offense. Scared play calling. Relying on the defense. Only a matter of time before they start losing key players on defense due to this approach. Same stuff, different season.

Brady commercial made me throw up a little in my mouth. So did the political one before it.

We have had some. Fields has missed them.

The 5 yard outs are tough to complete at times.

 

[SteelerInLebanon]

That was not offsides.

 

[SteelerFan448]

I just saw a replay and it looks like the offside was a real bad call against Watt.

 

[madinsomniac]

For decades now i have maintained that CALLED penalties should be reviewable... not missed penalties, but anything flagged... its not like teams have unlimited challenges or anything

 

[Gildong Sack]

Definitely not getting any help from the Zebras. Pretty one sided so far.

On the play earlier where the Falcons got the first on a dig route not only was TJ held but Wilson was trying to make the tackle on the receiver and was held by the other WR. All on the action side of the play...how do they not see that?

Wonder what the only constant we've had those 4 years has been?

 

[CoolieMan]

TJ is pretty pissed

 

[MemphisSteelerFan]

That is just a GD shame. Pit zone defense just gives up wide open gashes of real estate. The disturbing thing is that ATL is not very good at all.

I don’t think TJ was offsides but it doesn’t matter

 

[jitter77]

I dont remember seeing Watt so POed before

 

[Chicoman]

I have only seen 1 play with 3 WR's on the field the entire game! Someone needs to inform Arthur Smith that a spread formation is what is used in today's NFL offense! I saw one play where we had 0 WR's out there....was 9 guys on the line.

 

[Troglodyte]

I don’t think Watt was offsides, he got penalized for anticipating the snap.

 

[suncitysteel]

NFL would’ve given Garret that strip sack & FR. But this is TJ & the Steelers, so…

 

[SteelerFanRC]

Poor clock management... Can't take timeouts with you.

Never mind.

 

[CoolieMan]

I don’t think Watt was offsides, he got penalized for anticipating the snap.

they penalized him for being too good of a player

 

[Phinnster]

Chicken **** playcalling

 

[MemphisSteelerFan]

Tomlin making sure he takes a TO into the lockerroom at half. What a dumbarse.
