THIS!!!!!!!

 

[BurghThing]

Brilliant ******* play

Smith should be fired immediately for that

These penalties have got to stop.

That would require a coach with accountability

We got Buddy Coach

 

[bermudasteel]

They had the right call against that.

Yeah but you can't run that on second and long. LV has consistently had 7 to 9 players in the box on 1st and 2nd down all game...

 

[LastRide]

Play down to the competition, typical Steelers football.

 

[Chicoman]

He had good coverage on that one.

I agree he's a good pickup!

I blame that play on Teryl Austin for only rushing 4 guys on that play. You've gotta blitz in that situation just to give the DB a chance to knock down a rushed throw.

 

[MemphisSteelerFan]

I mean you have to have someone block that free guy... friermuth was too slow

did you see all the Raiders on the DLine on that play? At least 6. They were coming. #5 Deablo came up and was on the LOS and he just ran into the backfield and blew the play up. Just idiotic.

I know I keep piling on fields but he doesn’t command the offense. It always looks hard. What little we saw from Russ looked crisp and in command. That is what fields needs to learn. He can make plays he has an arm but he doesn’t do the routine routinely.

 

[bermudasteel]

Minkah hurt on that last play???

 

[SteelerInLebanon]

Did Minkah go down?

 

[stillwright]

Horrible defense on that play. How do you simply give that to them?

When did we see Russ?

 

[Black & Gold Bleeder]

Just saw Marvin Lewis on the sideline.

 

[MemphisSteelerFan]

now that is how to use your tight end. Raiders face 2nd 13 and no problem, throw to the TE and bingo--1st down.

 

[suncitysteel]

Shoulder stinger?

 

[MemphisSteelerFan]

Just saw Marvin Lewis on the sideline.

I saw that too. Didnt know he was with the Raiders.

Didn't know we actually saw anything from Russ yet. Also...the penalties have killed us all season on offense.

 

[Chicoman]

well if Fitzpatrick is seriously hurt our secondary will get Exposed!

 

[SteelerInLebanon]

When did we see Russ?

Last preseason game and in practice. Brief sample side but all reposts from Dale Lolley were that he ran things much more professionally.

 

[Black & Gold Bleeder]

stinger

[stillwright]

Coolie made the call!!!!!

 

[CoolieMan]

[suncitysteel]

There’s the Apple TO!

 

[MemphisSteelerFan]

Thank you for calling for the Apple Turnover!!! Great call

We should be able to get another Steeler Special and take a 2 pt lead before halftime.
