The Pittsburgher Thread: The Bush Era Begins

[USMC607]

Any word why Bush didn’t play tonight?

He sat out the last practice too.

From what I can find, he is fine maybe just something minor that they are holding him out to be cautious, maybe make sure it doesnt become something more than minor.

 

[USMC607]

Really would have liked to have seen Sutton Smith show what hes got.

But kid hasn't practiced much since OTAs.

 

[OnMyOwn]

Nice adjustment for that ball by Johnson.

 

[Shockmaster]

How is that OPI?

 

[TNT87]

That's not OPI.

 

[ImporterExporter]

Snell is slow and bland. A combo that = pack your bags.

Diontae Johnson with a great play and TD.

No f***ing way that is offensive PI. Didn't even touch him.

How many challenges in a row has Tomlin lost?

 

[USMC607]

These pass interference calls are awful..

Something like lasts yrs Saints vs Rams is a no call.

But these ticky tack grazing touch plays get flags. I dont even think he touched/pushed him at all?

 

[TNT87]

What is the purpose of reviewing pass interference if you aren't going to over rule a clear bad call?

 

[USMC607]

Referees are in peak form I see. Replay to me showed nothing to be considered a penalty.

At least they are consistantly inconsistent.

 

[Hockeygod66]

So now you can review the calls they just aren't going to change them

No NFL team is as unsuccessful throwing the challenge flag as the Steelers over the past few years

Mike Tomlin is 0-9 when he opts to throw the challenge flag as of late, with his last successful challenge coming in Week 9 of 2016 against the Ravens.

In his defense that should have been overturned. I'm lost as to how that could be upheld.

Not saying he is great at challenges but. f*** me that was shit on the refs part.

When you are going on 4 years without a successful challenge you might reassess your choices.

Again not saying he is good at deciding when and when not to throw them. I agree he has been bad.

But that specific one should have been overturned, even though now they are saying that was a booth review.

Yes, just saw that.

DJ moves a lot like AB.

Watch them overturn this shit.

Johnson making another play.

 

[USMC607]

Hodges dropped a dime.

 

[Hockeygod66]

They're crazy if they don't keep hodges over dobbs.

 

[OnMyOwn]

Johnson making another play.

He finds the ball and makes nice adjustments. Definitely promising.

 

[ImporterExporter]

Where is the DK Metcalf joker??

Diontae Johnson is already better. He was always better.

 

[USMC607]

Before they decide this, the ball is allowed to move now right?.

 

[Jaded-Fan]

Johnson making another play.

Last week I liked Bush, this week the excitement is all about Johnson.

 

[BlackAndGold87]

DJ's release off the line is AB like.
