People were saying online that the Steelers run like 70% of the time when they put a man in motion and the better offenses have the ratio the exact opposite way around.

If true, it goes a big way towards explaining why their backs almost always get blown up at or behind the line.

He’s shit and has been.

He's in line as the next Rooney Tunes hire.

Retire. Show below average ability in the film room and on the field holding a clip board. Work your way up in the organization even though you suck and added nothing.

Wear a headset (just like a real NFL coach!) Get some cool shades.

Reap Rooney Bucks.

I hurt my achilles in my left foot in rugby practice 10 years ago and stupidly played with the injury a week later. That shit still aches every once in awhile.

And I wasn't 40 like Rogers.

I’m sort of skeptical it was the Achilles. When you tear your Achilles you literally cannot move your foot. It just dangles there uselessly. Rodgers walked off the field, albeit limping. But I don’t recall ever seeing anyone walk off the field with a functioning foot after an Achilles tear.

Rumor is if Rodgers is indeed out for the year, Jets will be in contact with Ben Roethlisberger to lure him our of retirement.

A couple people posted about this in here. Best part of this is 65 just whiffing on the block.

The spin and slam looks alot like how he got concussed last year.

Who knows. He looked rattled to me and was seeing ghosts.

Either way Moore is who he is and that’s why they moved up for Jones.

Guess the narrative that Moore should start the season because he wouldn’t get KP killed, is out the window.

Just have to hope Jones is the real deal.

The only positive from this past weekend is the AFC powers all lost and their QBs didn’t play well, but I expect that won’t last long.

Allen… wtf. He has 20 picks now dating back to opening weekend last season.

He’s had a weird regression.

Unless his really good couple years are the outlier.

Hard to know… trying to think of another QB who has regressed like this.

To be fair, he has had 84 turnovers since 2018, which leads the league by far.

So turnovers aren’t exactly new to him, but ppl think he’s regressing.

I’m not sure if that’s the case, but I’d be worried as a Bills fan.

Last night Allen took 5 Xanaxs before the game or put money on the Jets.
4 turnovers will kill you every time

KP better start with a 2 td performance in a single game before we start talking about winning a SB.
You need elite Qb play to run with the big dogs we didn’t even get top 20 play yet. I fully expected KP to get to the 15-10 range but he regressed so bad yesterday

So you're blaming another inept offensive performance ENTIRELY on KP?

49ers literally beat the living shit out of the Steelers. I guess we’re not the Jets but holy deflating opener. I feel worse about it now than Sunday.

Is there any chance this team actually responds or is it another mediocre year of nothing?
