Week 8 - Giants at Steelers - DangeRuss' Game 2 @ QB1

Well lets see if we can keep the zero points allowed in the third quarter streak going
Just some unfortunate happenings. Hopefully they can come out with a purpose and take control of this nailbiter.
 
The D looks mediocre which is not good. Our O is moving up and down the field but keeps shooting themselves in the foot. WTF happened with Jones? Good rookie season playing a new position but comes back this year and looks worse. I hate he has to practice both OT positions but he is awful right now. Too many penalties, pressures allowed, and sacks allowed. I hope he gets back to LT next year and can get back to form at his natural position. The Steelers have screwed up so many OL by playing them out of position and they leave and play much better at their natural position. Enough with the need to play multiple positions. Master one instead of being just average at multiple positions.
 
It’s uncanny how year after year a Steeler team plays down to an inferior team. A 5-2 team plays down to a bad 2-5 Giants team. Unreal!
This statement ALWAYS amuses me.

Do inferior teams not get paid like better teams? The Giants LEAD THE LEAGUE in sacks this year...

Mistakes have resulted in FGs instead of TDs. And, I'm absolutely serious, I really want to see the rule about TDs - does it EXPLICTLY state that "two feet" means "two separate feet"??? Makes no sense. If a player bunny hops from the 3 yard line does it apply? Or...is the rule specific to catching a TD pass???

Inquiring minds want to know.
 
Najee has 82 yards on 10 carries... They should have leaned on the run game more in the first half.
Can't argue that....maybe down in the RZ a little more....dare I say. 🤪
 
It’s not like they are getting nothing in their trips. 2 passes to Pickens in the EZ both completed, still looks better than the O with Fields leading them.
I fully agree with you MT. I think Russ still is rusty timing wise in the red zone. Takes a touch of time. But bottom line is 9 points out of 3 trips there. I think they will be fine in the second half.

pretty sure the rule reads "with both feet"

I believe the rule states "both feet"

It’s actually rather simple. Steelers have a superior team and if prepared by all accounts should beat the inferior team. Maybe I’m giving the Steelers too much credit so I’ll wait to see how the second half unfolds.

passing the ball INTO the end zone requires that the receiver must get both feet down in bounds. Your Bunny Hop example does not apply as that would be considered a running play at that time, and only breaking the plane in control of the ball matters.
 
We need Russ to step up in the 2nd half.....we need Watt to actually make a play at some point. We are the better team. We need to show it. Especially on the scoreboard!!!!
