GDT: The Pittsburgher Thread - Here we go!

[Colonel Mustard]

Was that real

 

[Shrimper]

Talk about waving the white flag

 

[ChaosAgent]

Talk about the O line all you want but Ben has taken some satan awful sacks when he had time

That was an incredible sack to give up. From a lack of pocket awareness to how slow he was to actually step up and move.

None of this is surprising. The OL is bad - 100%. But having to block for someone who is actually SLOWER than they are is terrible. Ben is the worst athlete on this football team, and that includes Boswell.

 

[Ugene Magic]

You know, you kick a field goal you are down 8. 1 procession.

 

[ZorkEnchanter]

Haha, that 4th down play.

Ben was a great QB, he just got old, happens to all of us. Let him play it out... if he plays horrible we win with a great pick.

If they somehow go on a run, good for him.

 

[Common Sense]

I guess there was probably a better chance of Harris hurdling all 4 of those guys than Ben throwing it 11 yards downfield

[Andy99]

Good to have my Sundays back…I will not be watching this loser of a football team the rest of the season unless things improve tremendously

All of that would be fine if he and his agent didn't manipulate the org into extending him well past his expiration date at an astronomical paycheck, and selling them lies that he was committed to fitness and had the motivation of a Brady.

He has effectively tanked the last 3 years for this team. He gets to play out nothing.

 

[Ugene Magic]

Had they not missed the earlier field goal and made this one it's a ballgame.

 

[NewAgeOutlaw]

Owned by the Bungles!

 

[Andy99]

Lol…the standard apparently is…..shit

 

[Shaftception]

KC looking like they're gonna somehow be 1-2 shortly.

 

[wheelz87]

Detroit always gonna Detroit

 

[Gumbercules]

Justin Tucker hits a game winning 66 yard FG. Wow.

Pitt the only team in the division to lose today. Going to be a long season.

That nonsense pr all off-season about him taking a paycut that later he even had the balls to claim HE campaigned for so they could build around him better this season made me laugh quite heartily.

Yeah Ben, you graciously accepted a paycut to $20 mil instead of $30 mil, in your near age 40 season. Good on you .

One of my personal hopes going forward is with all the inevitable changeover that will be coming in the coming years, the sickening suck up local media might stop lieing for once since they won't have any built in relationships to protect with whosever left.

Losing like this so Tomlin is exposed, Roth isn’t tempted to come back again, and they get a high pick is exactly what we should want.

People getting all mad and riled up is comical as f***!

“Sons a bitches! They had a real shot this year! Grahhabbq!”

He took $90-$100M as a loyalty payment between 2019-2021. IMO he has used up whatever goodwill he has earned with this fanbase - which you could argue he'd already burned with the incident in 2010.

Funny to think that Antonio Brown's legacy has come out ahead over the last year.

I mean I think The only fans that are suprised are the group that Tomlin does nothing wrong and directs blame every where else.

 

[mynameisnick4]

Detroit got completely screwed by the refs not calling a delay of game before that 66 yard kick. Luckily since the Steelers are shit, Baltimore getting an undeserved win doesn't bother me as much as it normally would.

 

[Night Shift]

Don't worry about Ben..hes just breaking in a new pair of cement shoes. Might take a couple weeks

 

[Smoke]

It seems father time got Ben before Brady. I didn't see that one coming.

 

[K Fleur]

Ben looks like every dude in their late 30's/early 40's that lives in Fayette county.

Tomlin will have to make the call to bench Ben or not during the bye. If we indeed lose out into the bye week then I believe we have to start Mason and see what we have or don't have for draft clarity purposes. If he flames out, and the rumors are true that Colbert will retire with Ben, I have no doubt Colbert will draft or trade up for whichever QB Tomlin wants.
