OT: The Pittsburgher Thread: Oh no! They are 3 and 1. Panic!

[MissADD]

Did Najee get hurt?

 

[Empoleon8771]

Not that it matters this late in the game, but Pickens had another bad drop on that pass to the end zone.

 

[Peat]

I would like someone to put together Warren's carries today for the next time I feel like a "it's all about the environment for RBs" argument because he has just seen brick wall after brick wall and is going to post a Harris day as a result.

Didn't see if the DB got his hands in there but yeah at first glance that looked like a drop

It’s a drop and I’m probably broadly cast as a Pickens defender.

 

[Double-Shift Lasse]

That’s also a drop

 

[Empoleon8771]

I've been super critical of Khan not bringing in a WR to replace Johnson but I'll definitely not complain about adding Jackson. He's a great CB2 for this team, really like him as a piece for the next couple of years.

 

[MissADD]

That Oline is going to get a QB or RB killed. And with Pickens dropping the easy throws, no QB is going to look good. They need to trade for another WR.

This is the least convincing 30 point win I've seen but it is also a 30 point win.

Meh the Raiders suck, the Steelers have been completely dominating since after the first quarter.

5 yards shy of 300 yards of offense (before these kneeldowns), I'll take it. Running game showed up and was actually efficient and converted in the RZ for the most part

Sickening that Pittsburgh fans are happy with the state of their sports teams. Mediocrity rules the day

 

[BackToTheBrierePatch]

Good to get the W but man there is so much not to like about this team. Next 2 weeks are mandatory wins because after the bye it gets brutal

How mad were you when Cam Heyward got that sack

 

[UnrealMachine]

Should the Steelers bench Fields, Najee, or both next week to increase their chances of winning?

D) None of the above

 

[Ulf5]

The Raiders aren't allowing Tomlin to Tomlin this away.

Weird to watch Tomlin's play calling to end that one. So un-Tomlin like.

 

[WickedWrister]

Easily his most efficient 100 yard game

 

[Andy99]

They could bench Fields next week and it would be justified…but they should be able to beat Jets and Giants with either QB. I’d seriously think about starting Wilson

 

[Coastal Kev]

A meaningless sack in a meaningless game? Did you see what happened to him on the 4th down play last week? He was so gassed, he quit on the play.

Just like when I was mocked with my Jeff Carter take while he was in the midst of a hot streak the year he signed his extension... the same people that lol'd were the loudest complainers a year later. AND THEY NEVER ADMIT THAT THEY WERE WRONG>

The running game can take a bow for sure. I think Smith opened up the whole game plan a bit and it paid dividends. It's probably the most efficient I've seen the Steelers' offence be in a long time.

And obviously big congratulations to the defence and special teams are so many big plays, even if you know the other side is furious with themselves for letting it happen.

I mean, plenty of good plays.

Just the Raiders did absolutely everything possible to lose that game and at times it looked like the Steelers were going to play along.

 

[Peat]

Also just looking at other places, feels like a ton of Steelers fans just want to go to war with each other. So damn angry

 

[MrBrightside]

There are 2 or 3 posters in this thread that absolutely have to be like Ravens fans who just come here to piss people off and/or are absolutely miserable human beings.

The Raiders are pretty horrible and I still have no confidence this team can win a playoff game, but to be 4-2 with 4 of 6 on the road and 5 of 6 against teams at .500 or better isn't terrible.

Kirk, Adams, or one of the Browns' WR would make such a huge difference.

 

[bigdaddyk88]

I do think if he shows out he has a Montgomery extension in his future

 

[Colonel Mustard]

I know some are want wilson in but i think he’d get killed behind this line right now.
