The winners and losers from the #Steelers 16-15 win over the Jacksonville Jaguars

Winners And Losers From The Steelers Wild 2nd Preseason Game Victory

For the second week in a row the Pittsburgh Steelers were involved in a nail biter. On Saturday night from Jacksonville, it took a last-minute touchdown drive, and a missed field goal to secure the victory for the Steelers. But a win is a win, and you love to see Pittsburgh make the plays in […]

Excellent article Justin, thak you

I don't think they have anyone to replace the crappy OL players. Dan Moore really does need to step up and the FO needs to bring in any (Upgrade) Vet that is better or at least better than the back-ups as we don't have much for better in that role. Not sure what is holding Dotson back, Green is probably playing at the level he is expected but should be better. This third and fourth rounder are playing to thier pedigree so to speak.

It all starts in the trenches and we need trench warfare players.!


Salute the nation
 
Moore gets beat to the edge more than any LT I can remember seeing. Over and over and over and over - defensive end speed rushes the corner, Moore is standing still like he is in a checkout line at the grocery store, Moore finally reacts and pushes the defender's left shoulder, propelling him into the QB.

Jesus Christ, Moore, you have freakishly long arms. Defenders are much smaller than you, are not going to beat you inside by crossing over. Defend the ******* edge.

Damn, Green is getting beat every time. Not getting low/leverage. They’re taking his lunch money for sure. The Jag was in the backfield at almost the same time as the exchange to Snell. That’s pretty bad.

The issue with Green is all leverage… if he doesn’t get that punch off perfectly right he is screwed…

Some guys just don't translate to the NFL. Who knows maybe some more work and he can be serviceable in a backup role or something. He has no business starting though that is for sure.

I don't even think he is serviceable as a backup. Steelers need to go a different route with their backup G.

That was my point, with some work maybe he can be a backup but as of right now he is def not a starter. I find it hard to believe that there isn't someone on the streets better than this guy right now. These are the issues I have with Tomlin. From the outside, it always seems like he will stick with "his" guy even when it's clear as day that it's a failed project rather than move on when it's clearly the right thing to do.
 
Regarding oline who is out thier as a free agent or possible trade?
 
put Dotson in at LG
 
Turnstile Moore was a weak spot last year and looks to be a weak spot this year.

His fundamental problem of not understanding football. He values splash plays and speed over the strength of the OLine. The phoney won a Super Bowl with a pathetic OLine further validating this ridiculous line of thought.

Care to refute the truth Mr.Sunshine? Put you on ignore so I don't have to see your lacking tripe.

Thought not . I prefer to deal in reality not love under false hopes the idiot has given us the last 12 years.

We are in this position because our bullshitting head coach doesn't value the OLine to protect his precious splash players. Enjoy the offense this year thanks to Tomlin once again.
