OT: The Pittsburgher Thread: They Killed Kenny!

[Pengwins]

That was offensive pass interference

3rd string Cleveland QB throwing perfect backside throws.

Honestly even though I don't think Pickett is to blame for their awful performance so far today, I'd still look at going to Trubisky in the 2nd half. The reality is that this team is going to need to take some gambles to put together any sort of offensive drives and I think Pickett has been beaten into playing too conservatively at this point.

34 passing yards in a half is downright unacceptable, regardless of circumstances around it. They'll probably run the risk of turning the ball over with Trubisky's aggressive play, but you sure as hell know they're not going to win this game by playing it safe.

Has Pickett even thrown it at a target deeper than 10 yards today?

Got lucky there

 

[SomeDude]

Steelers secondary getting a lotta leeway right now

No I don't believe so.

Actually he did throw it for about 12 yards once, it was on that 1st and 15 play.

 

[MrBrightside]

I mean, they literally have a completely healthy offense. I get the Browns D is good but they are so overmatched.

 

[TNT87]

If you are a DC for the opposing team in the week leading up to a Steeler game, do you even go into work to game plan?

 

[BackToTheBrierePatch]

2 score game. Luck runs out today

 

[Pengwins]

Shouldn’t that idiot return that kick?

 

[Josey Wales]

Main reason people blame Pickett is they can't bring themselves to Blame HC Cliche' , Matt Canada & Poor Little Rich Kid Fart Rooney the 2nd

A TD there would have ended it.

 

[Colonel Mustard]

Such garbage

*TJ Watt gets 1 INT, 1 FF, and 1 TD in the second half. Steelers win 16-10*

Yinzers: Wow Mike Tomlin is such a great coach he just keeps winning!

I would argue the field goal did anyway. This offense isn’t scoring today and the Browns just know as long as they don’t turn the ball over they’re fine.

The FF leads to GW drive for Kp where Boswell kicks a walk off

Steelers only 336 yards way from 400 yard game

I like KP but I would not be against a QB change even though it likely doesn’t make a difference

Yeah Pickett is THE problem

 

[DanielPlainview]

It doesn't make a difference. Mitch Trubisky ends up with happy feet, getting swarmed in the pocket and/or having to scramble around. Almost like there's a common denominator

The difference would be that Trubisky is more aggressive and will be willing to make a mistake to go for a big play, when it doesn't seem like Pickett is willing to do that.

The team has absolutely ruined Pickett's confidence at this point. He's playing scared, he's playing to not turn the ball over.

 

[Rossi Rat]

The Browns are going to be 7-3 despite a huge **** up of a contract with Watson. It’s a testament to how well coached they are. Scary to think how good they could be without being hampered by that Watson contract.

 

[BackToTheBrierePatch]

Yeah Pickett is THE problem

He’s part of the problem. Coaching is part of the problem. If both are failing you get what you get today
