OT: The Pittsburgher Thread: They Killed Kenny!

[vodeni]

Terrible 2nd down play screwed that drive.

you mean a flyball to a receiver at the line of scrimmage

 

[The Old Master]

Defense needs an early stop on this drive.

good time for a turnover

 

[pistolpete11]

Pickens has gone from "throw it into his general vicinity and he will come down with it because he's Superman" to "he sucks".

 

[Jaded-Fan]

pickett is so much not fun to watch, just sad

The not so fun is primarily the game plan and offensive calls.

That isn't on KP.

The inaccuracy is entirely on KP.

 

[ChaosAgent]

Kenny and Canada special again.

Get a stop, try again.

Pickens majorly bombed in not getting that 2nd foot down. That was a layup compared to many of his catches.

 

[OnMyOwn]

Two linebackers. Just a nice throw.

 

[vodeni]

steelers secondary is basically non existent

 

[Rossi Rat]

Levis doesn’t give a **** about renegade. Of course.

 

[Shaftception]

I agree 100%, I've been screaming this for a while now. I personally think the mistakes started when they drafted Harris with a 1st rounder but you can go back even further than that with those same issues.

I'd argue, with hindsight, the wrong decisions considering what would've been best for the future was trading the 1st for Minkah.

Minkah obviously had great seasons since, but this team was never an all-pro safety away from winning a Super Bowl (without even mentioning the fact safety just isn't that important a position).

Minkah's efforts that year led to more wins, when more losses would've been more beneficial, and that 1st had that team truly bottomed out that year could've proven a truly impactful pick. But alas, nothing can be done now other than hope they learned their lessons going forward.

 

[OnMyOwn]

Roberts f***ed that one up. Should have been a stop for no gain.

 

[MrBrightside]

I'd argue, with hindsight, the wrong decisions considering what would've been best for the future was trading the 1st for Minkah.

Minkah obviously had great seasons since, but this team was never an all-pro safety away from winning a Super Bowl (without even mentioning the fact safety just isn't that important a position).

Given how they've drafted, Minkah is the best #1 pick since Watt and nothing is close. That's not the issue.

 

[Rossi Rat]

Levis should just go for the KO soon. A TD would end it.

 

[OnMyOwn]

Their LT jumped like a mother. My god.

 

[TNT87]

Glad it was incomplete but how the hell don't you call a false start there? He's been doing that all night.

The Titans flipped the field.

 

[OnMyOwn]

Man. A fair catch at like the 7 is frustrating. The kick had a lot of speed, I’d rather let it go and see what happens.

Oh well

 

[Jaded-Fan]

This team makes more special team errors than any team in memory. Fair catch at the six yard line?

Does anyone coach this team?

 

[ChaosAgent]

Their punter absolutely tanks the ball. He puts everything into it.

Pressley - do better bud.

 

[MrBrightside]

 

[OnMyOwn]

Staple of the Canada offense.

 

[Jaded-Fan]

Because all of those behind the line of scrimmage and one or two yard sideline 'passes' are basically more running plays.

This team does not pass. And certainly not down field.

 

[NewAgeOutlaw]

Another high throw.

 

[TNT87]

Terrific throw

 

[since70]

After seeing that chart it's hard to believe any defense can game plan for the offensive genius that is Matt Canada's game calling

 

[OnMyOwn]

What a throw and catch.

 

[Shaftception]

Given how they've drafted, Minkah is the best #1 pick since Watt and nothing is close. That's not the issue.

No it's not THE issue you're right, but that's the point.

Safety isn't impactful enough a position to turn this team from what it was into a contender, so regardless of how great Minkah has performed after the trade, he could never have contributed enough to outweigh what that pick could've been had they lucked out and hit on a special talent at a position of actual importance.

Doesn't matter now of course.

Hey that was nice.
