OT: The Pittsburgher Thread: 2022 Handball season has arrived!

[ziggyjoe212]

Najee was incredible.
KP was very mediocre until the final drive. Why can't he do that during other drives? Can't wait to see him with an NFL caliber OC.
Tomlin is now 18-15 vs Harbaugh.
We're 7-2 with TJ healthy.

 

[Hullois]

Dammit…I’m happy and both unhappy at the same time…

I'm happy because KP is clearly showing signs of progress and I feel like he could become a legit QB now. I Didn't feel like that earlier this season.

Now i really don't care if they make the playoffs because they don't deserve it. It's fun to watch January ball with no stress lol

 

[vodeni]

With like a decade of purgatory going on; Steelers are the perfect team for Andrew lol.

he gets plenty of that with Pens too

 

[Ogrezilla]

Literally nothing in that post implied that I don't want the team to win.

You have to be smoking something to think they have a chance of making it to the second round, and knowing that isn't the same as hoping they lose.

I hope they get into the playoffs on a miracle yet again so they can get smoked by a real team.

you literally said you hope they make the playoffs so they can get smoked by a real team. No implication needed, you flat out said it


I don't expect them to do well, but come on now

 

[Honour Over Glory]

It’s nice rooting for a Qb that isn’t a douche even when he speaks like a certain #7.

 

[K Fleur]

Pickett looks like he’s got all the tools and he’s got a lot of heart.

If I see any of you post about wanting that dork Trubisky starting again I will laugh at you forever.

 

[SomeDude]

I’m rooting for the 9-8 just for the Mark Madden meltdown

we want Duck!

 

[Colonel Mustard]

Finishing the season season strong. 6-2 since the bye now.

There is being a fan and then there is living in a state of delusion.

Tell me with a straight face that this team belongs playing the Bills or Chiefs in a playoff game.

 

[OnMyOwn]

KP being a clutch QB is the biggest takeaway for me with him this season. I don’t think he’s on a trajectory like an Allen or Herbert, but man it’s nice to see him put these late drives together. I’m hopeful with a new OC we can get more out of him.

Good win. I try to be a fan, first, so I always like seeing wins.

Say everything lines up perfect next week and we make the playoffs, are you guys are prepared for what follows with the Tomlin praise?

 

[JTG]

Pickett's stat line is still meh.

15/27 for 160 and 1 TD.

When is the last time we had almost 200 rushing yards in a game? I can't even remember when.

 

[Mr Jiggyfly]

if I'm looking at the schedule right they play each other, so that doesn't seem right

Steelers are in then!

They needed so many things to go right I lost track.

Ya so they just showed it on NBC, Pats and Dolphins must lose. I knew Jets were involved somehow.

 

[Peat]

That's the sort of ending you tune in to see.

If you can get that last five minute Pickett to turn up for the rest of the game, that'd be something.

Big props to the way the offensive line has improved over the season and given the guys behind them a lot more platform. Got to keep getting better but they're doing their part of the bargain.

what does that have to do with what we're talking about? I can expect them to lose and still root for them to win.

 

[bathroomSTAAL]

That was awesome. Pickett making thar insane play after the LT gets beaten cleanly right off the snap

We should have played Mason Rudolph.

 

[ziggyjoe212]

We were 2-6 at one point Now we're 8-8. Wild.

Tomlin's streak is tweaked to 16 straight 8+ win seasons.

We should have played Mason Rudolph.

Why

His stat lines don’t matter right now.

The offense is a mess.

What he is showing you can’t teach.

He has that clutch gene.

What I am liking about Kenny is that he doesn’t quit. He plays like there’s always a chance to score. He also doesn’t throw his team under the bus when he speaks about them as well and it’s a nice change.

Got a kick out of Harris and his OLine shout out.

Not sure fans are ready for the fact that Tomlin might deserve praise with what he's doing with a team full of rookies at key positions and a team that's missed it's best player for half the season.

 

[Honour Over Glory]

We should have played Mason Rudolph.

Mason should be the back up. That’s all I will say about him right now.

Mitch sucks.

 

[JTG]

PIckett has these flashes and I have to wonder if he is capable of doing it more consistently in a different offense.

When I see KP all I can think of is how he would carve up the league if he was playing under Shanahan.

I wouldn’t trust Matt Canada to run a charity car wash.

Great defensive game plan by the Steelers tonight.
