Can someone help me understand the same bullshit stupid play calling that never throws the ball past the 1st down marker, always yards short, with no blockers?

WTF is this shit?

Every single damn 3rd down…..

Tomlin dictates that it's better to take the FG/punt than risk the turnover.

Anytime Pickens gets single coverage has to go to him. Any throw near him should be caught.

That didn't look like he should've been down by contact?
Absolutely not. The hiring standards for Refs have degraded severely I guess. Because that's minor league stuff to mess that up.

I think this game is over if they can get a TD on this drive, Atlanta's offense has been completely ineffective in the second half.

The announcers are talking about it now as well but I think Fields has had a really solid game today. Not anything extraordinary, but he's playing safe with the ball, not taking sacks and is showing solid accuracy.

At least Arthur Smith isn't trying to outsmart himself. Simple effective bootlegs. Matt Canada would be overthinking it.

I'll say this, the playaction makes the offense more entertaining to watch at least.

Points aren't there yet, but atla ta seems to be getting tired now in the 4th, getting more consistent positive plays.

Fields just needs to process throws like a second or two quicker.

He's not made a bone head throw yet, but if he's every to get better needs to get quicker in his reads.

The playcalling should be designed to help that tho giving him simpler reads until he evolves as a passer.

Considering if they score points on this drive of any kind, the Steelers are ahead by two possessions(barring Extra 2). So playing the clock is the smart thing to do. Unless you want a TO prone QB airing it out for no reason other than style points.

Take the points and go up by 8. So f***ing dumb.

Sad that fully grown adults can't do math on the sidelines.
