At halftime, the Steelers have 91 rushing yards. To beat the Cardinals, they'll need a whole lot more than that in the second half. Cardinals have allowed an NFL-worst 174 rushing yards per game in their last three contests against the Rams, Texans and Falcons.

Maybe if you'd come up with actual criticisms that aren't the same old nonsense as normal, those thoughts would be taken more seriously. Crazy though, I know?

The only play where Pickett made a mistake on was the play he got injured on. He should have dumped it off to Robinson instead of scrambling. That's it. Although I'm unsure if Robinson gets it in there if he dumps it off, two DBs would have closed in on him quickly and there was only 1 other WR to block there.

And had they punched it in on the 4th down, literally no one would care that Pickett made the play he made on 3rd down.

See it at the college and pro level. I have never understood going shotgun on 1 or less on 4th down It needs to be explained to me

am i missing something? whats 91 times 2?

I hope they make some adjustments, cause I feel like Murray is just going to lock in on McBride because the Steelers literally have nobodies in the middle of the field.

Seumalo is also ruled out.

I have been transparent in my Pickett criteria.
200 yds/game, 1.5 passing TDs/game and <1 INT/game

Production matters. Look at what Murray just did.

So you're not actually evaluating Pickett based on the plays that are called but an arbitrary stat line that you deem acceptable?

I wouldn't say Pickett was great or anything in the 1st half, but he didn't do anything for anyone to complain about him either. It was a thoroughly incomplete rating.

Correct. A stat line befitting of a QB in the NFL. Not even a good one.

He had it easy as the Steelers have no answer for McBride over the middle.

Any JPJ love out there?

 

[TNT87]

Ah yes the early third quarter TO

 

[Rossi Rat]

Great punt, Blake. Loved the flex with the bow and arrow too. Proud Penn St man! We know TEU, RBU, LBU… now also Punter U.

Kenny has George Pickens, Diontae Johnson and Freiermuth.

At some point you have to produce.

 

[NewAgeOutlaw]

Nice conversion.

 

[BackToTheBrierePatch]

That was all Muth. Lucky they aren’t punting

Constant stupid mistakes. Tomlin’s defenders can say what they will but they are so sloppy and undisciplined.

I agree. Was talking about Murray having it easy on that long drive

Johnson f***ing BLOWS

This is the problem with "run it until they stop you." Always a penalty. You have to throw to win.
