OT: The Pittsburgher Thread: Dont panic, they are 2-0!

[NewAgeOutlaw]

Running the ball with 40 seconds left, half a field to go, and 1 timeout.

This team is a f***ing joke.

 

[End of Line]

Lmao at running there

 

[WickedWrister]

Broderick is getting f***ing bullied again

 

[mynameisnick4]

They should have let Boswell kick the 58 yarder in the 1st quarter instead of punting.

 

[Empoleon8771]

Fields has to get rid of that ball faster but this offense is a downright joke.

Fields, Freiermuth and Paterson are the only players on this offense that I'm not absolutely livid with right now.

 

[Pengwins]

Tomlin nodding his head like he has any idea what is going on

 

[Andy99]

Dogshit team lol

 

[Shockmaster]

Only need 5 more field goals!

 

[NewAgeOutlaw]

Playing for 3 down 17 points.

Loser organization.

He’d make the perfect politician

 

[WickedWrister]

Man, that Pickens fumble looms large. Could've been 17-10 at half. Feels like we're going to need a defensive score to win

 

[Honour Over Glory]

Whatever they want to call as the failures this game, Fields isn't one of them right now.

Play calling on both sides for the Steelers, just atrocious.

 

[SomeDude]

After all that we’re a Pickens fumble away from likely getting the ball in the 2nd half with the ability to tie the game. Thanks, George.

"We're not overly concerned"

Good lord

 

[Peat]

So about the only thing that went right is Watt didn't get injured

 

[BackToTheBrierePatch]

What a joke of a first half. Outplayed and outcoached by a large margin

That personal foul, the Pickens fumble...the idiotic play calling to keep running the ball with Harris.

Playing for 3 down 17 points.

Loser organization.

I mean a field goal was clearly the right call there. It was a 50 yard field goal, they had no chance of scoring a TD there.

They had no chance of a TD because they managed the clock like shit.

1 of 32 teams in the NFL runs a run play with 40 seconds left in the half down 17 with 1 timeout. It is insane.

 

[Empoleon8771]

What's surprising is that the total yardage difference in this game isn't that bad, the Steelers have 180 yards to the Colts 239. The issue is the defense is getting obliterated and Pickens had that awful fumble.

They need a TD to open the 3rd quarter if they want any chance to win this game.

 

[Coastal Kev]

Was and remains a bad take.

We'll see. I remember people laughing about the Jeff Carter take while he was in the midst of a hot streak in January. Months later, thread after thread regarding how he was killing the team.

Steelers playing for a FG was amazingly terrible.
The Colts calling that TO was terrible.
That run with 41 seconds left in the hat was joke and terrible.

Tomlin quote" we're no overly concerned"

Yes I agree with that. I thought you were suggesting they throw a Hail Mary.

Win or lose, this 2nd half is a proper audition for Fields. Score 14+ knowing the ball's going to be in your hands. I still like what I saw out of him in the 1st half. Pickens and Harris (an abomination of a RB) killed us.

The defense has been so good to open the year but they got whipped in the first half.

I think this assumption is giving far too much credit to the Steelers coaching staff
