Warren needs to be getting 5 yards a pop.

I missed the first drive. Though it was a 4:30 kickoff.

so did the steelers

Guy wide open in the middle

You act like he's supposed to get the ball or something.......

 

[SteelerFan448]

Jaylen is ineffective today...

I think that was more of Freiermuth getting absolutely blown up.

 

[madinsomniac]

How about play action on first down?

If you ever want to get mad at our coaching staff, look at tge splits of our passing stats with and without play action and then look how often we've run it the past half decade or so..

Oh, I know exactly why the play failed. Just wanted to amp up the Najee haters

Guy wide open in the middle

exactly but he doesnt see him. Now he will look for Pickens as Im sure he has been instructed to do, but the other guys might as well take it easy because he isnt going to find them for the most part. And this is what I think Wilson could be better at doing. Russell can process the defense and find the open guy. No, he doesnt have Justin's legs but if he finds the open man, he doesnt need them

I don't know about this team anymore! We need a leader on offense! Justin Fields isn't that guy! IMO it's time for Russell Wilson to at least get his chance to start the 2nd half.

 

[stillwright]

Possibly, but we still have 2 other receivers out there and I think Fields just does not see when some are open. He processes slowly and if George is covered, he struggles going thru his progressions. But I see your point. It would be good to have another top flight receiver to help George because he cant carry the team. Not disciplined enough.

What game(s) have you been watching? Our WRs do not get seperation on most plays.

 

[bermudasteel]

WTF was Jones doing?

Twiddly winks???

Pickens was the first read....he took it.

All of our RBs need to do that but LV has 8 in the box every time...

 

[SteelerSask2]

Did Queen just make a tackle?

They said coming off his best game........haha.what do you watch.

 

[tapeANaspirin2it]

LOL at that ref flexing while making that holding call.

 

[bermudasteel]

Thanks #77

I was being sarcastic.

 

[Steelersfan84]

Bench him

 

[SteelerInLebanon]

That hold was mostly on fields for not throwing soon enough.

 

[bermudasteel]

Guess who's coming to dinner??? George Pickens!!!

 

[stillwright]

Bench him

And put in who?

 

[SteelerInLebanon]

Offsides again on LV.

 

[bermudasteel]

NAJEE!!!

 

[suncitysteel]

Say what you want about Najee but that dude gives it 110% just about every time.

 

[Troglodyte]

Harris sucks they say.

 

[SteelerInLebanon]

Nice run Najee.
