Steelers VS the rats game thread #ActionButNoJackson

We need to get rookies and young players more time from here on out on defense to see what they have and get them experience. Winning is now irrelevant this year, teaching and evaluating what we may have are now paramount.

I believe they are capable of evaluating but I've long believed Tomlin couldn't teach anything. And that pretty much holds up throughout his career. His answer to a problem is spend a high draft pick.

This is on Mitch. The defense could have made some plays but they shouldn’t have been in a position to have to make them to win.

And i might add all 3 of Mitches turnovers in the red zone would equal punts and one of them to the 1 yard line. The highest paid defense in the league sucks.


Mitch sucks too.

Oh well I'm over this season.

What part of those three trips not getting points when it should have been a sure thing do you not get. **** 3 FG’s wins that game. Hell one FG wins that game. THAT is not on the defense who held them to 16.

I am not absolving them entirely, they didn’t win the game. But they didn’t lose us this game. Even if we make that last stop there is no sure thing we score. We should have had a lead in this one. Probably a multi score lead, without changing anything the defense did.

You say the Ravens are a good run team. They are a pretty good turnover team too. Breaking it down first one was was not his fault. Simms brought the linebacker in with his route. Last one though I'll timed on FD was better than any punt they get. And that is a ****** street rookie throwing. They are hugely hamstrung there. The second one was beyond stupid.

Well yes dumb ***. Offense has to score to force a team to throw. When you can’t score they can just pound the ball until it works.

And what, it’s the defense’s job to stay on the field as long as possible while getting run over? Just stop.

And if we get even one of those scores, one. We win the game. We only gave up 16. That should almost always be good enough when you had 4 chances to score 3 points to have the lead.

So what? We score 3 points on four tries and we win the game. What the **** are you people not getting about that.

Statistically we were close or better but those turnovers will get ya every time.

They literally got run over in the second half last week.

Yes and I said run defense still has to get better, but it has been improved from last year. It has had some good games and some big stops. We are two players short of being really good against the run.
