OT: OT: The Pittsburgher Thread: Stillers and our pointless bowl games we got!

[Ugene Magic]

No matter what scheme you go with, you have to jam everyone off the line. Let his small receivers and Gronk get clean releases, and the battle is already half win for Brady.

Brady also knows when to just get rid of the ball and live to play another down without putting them in a bigger hole.

If the Steelers win - it's "Yeah but can you beat them in the playoffs?" If the Steelers lose - it's "You can't ever beat Brady's team."

So... even if we win, the fans will still think we lost.

Good news is if we win today, and Jax run the table against 3 non playoff teams NE will be seeded at number 3 giving them 1 extra match were they could lose or suffer some injuries.

Chris Hogan likely isn't going to play. The Patriots will have to find another white guy to torch the Steelers defense.

They will too unless Haden is playing. Amendola?

Sounds about right . . . we probably trade our FG's for their TD's until it dawns on them to let Ben call the game, at which point it will be too late.

Let’s not forget Gronk was absent in the AFCCG.

I can’t see him not being a huge issue.

 

[Jaded-Fan]

Ha Ha.

Ravens losing to the Clowns.

DK hilarious today, whistling past the graveyard w 20 reasons the Stillers will beat the Pats. Mostly statistics I.e, best record in the NFL, longest W streak. Ben has been good recently, and so on....

None that actually address the problematic match-ups between us and NE, including moronic coaching schemes on both sides of the ball. Or even hard numbers like Brady has NEVER thrown an INT v a Tomlin-coached team.

But hey we're crybabies if we expect the game to play out the way it has for the entire Belichek - Tomlin era.

 

[JTG]

So this is rough math right now because the season isn't over, but Cleveland will have picks 1, 7, 33, 40, 60, and 66

What are the odds they pull even 1 Pro Bowler out of those?

 

[Dick Sledge]

Here we go.

 

[Joejosh999]

Down, please

 

[Dick Sledge]

They'e showing Bell is the x factor they haven't seen yet.

 

[ColePens]

Here comes frustration!

 

[Dick Sledge]

Not the best start.

Now I'm officially worried lol

 

[OnMyOwn]

Gah...

 

[TNT87]

Holding play changed everything.

 

[KIRK]

Here comes frustration!

Andre versus a jobber level?

 

[Dick Sledge]

Holding play changed everything.

We seem to like beating ourselves against the Pats.

 

[Rossi Rat]

Bill and Patricia grinning wide. Exactly what they wanted.

 

[Dick Sledge]

Great to see 50.

 

[ColePens]

The dink and dunk begins.

 

[KIRK]

Is it pouring?

 

[Dick Sledge]

The dink and dunk supreme leader is back.

 

[Andy99]

Pitiful start....
