GDT: The Pittsburgher Thread - Training Camp is Upon Us

[T1K]

Haskins clearly has a much better arm than Rudolph. Did a good job processing things that drive too, two drops.

 

[Al Smith]

That was pretty

 

[TNT87]

Nice job.

 

[OnMyOwn]

What a punt haha.

 

[OnMyOwn]

Our scrub reserve DB’s are truly scrubby.

 

[Night Shift]

I know it’s the preseason but boy do the Steelers look like shit….Rudolph is an embarrassment…

Harris still playing.

Tomlin is a toolbag.

People are naturally bullish because it's a new season. But they forget who's on the sidelines, so it starts to becomes a hamster wheel. One I got off a few years ago.

 

[Andy99]

Ballage and Killibrew, Sexton run back…..that’s probably the extent of good things for the Steelers tonight…

 

[Empoleon8771]

I'm certainly no NFL scout, but I'd tell the Cowboys that a guy who couldn't cut it as QB at Pitt isn't going to cut it as a QB in the NFL

 

[wheelz87]

Looked like DJ tweaked a knee on his only catch.

I saw that too. I’ve never seen a guy get hurt as much as him. Every time he catches a ball I worry he’s getting hurt. Just seems too small and fragile to ever last a full season.

 

[T1K]

Ballage is clearly our RB2. McFarland doesn’t run upfield. Snell might not even make the team.

Joe Flacco went to Pitt…and he was elite

I like this new punter.

 

[wheelz87]

I’d be a terrible evaluator of talent. What Rudolph brings to the table that Dobbs doesn’t.. I mean I’ll just never see it.

what a great night

2nd time i've heard Coach T use the word minutia in his presser

yasssssss!!!!!

 

[ImporterExporter]

Playcalling didn't change much.

Just ran a few more times and threw the ball 1.7 yards down the field.

Mike Tomlin pretends he has an extensive vocabulary. It's comical how people fawn over his 2nd rate BS skills. Playing key regulars into the 2nd quarter of a meaningless game makes him a moron. But he gets a pass. You know why.

He played a lot of rookies and 2nd year guys that is what pre season is for.

Is Samuel that loses a spot not Snell

 

[Mr Jiggyfly]

Wait I know this one…

Because Steeler coaches have lifetime jobs?

Does it really matter which one wins the backup job?

If Roth retires/gets injured and any of these three become the full time starter, dark days will be ahead.

True but still no sympathy from me.. We will still see that ugly snake in the Regular season

They act like Clown Shoes can coach his way out of a paper bag.

They will just shout out to bring back Duck because you know that one year they got lucky to hit 8-8

Dobbs only has attempted 17 passes in his career was beat out by Mason in 2019 fairly easily. Mason throws an excellent deep ball has no touch for the short passing game or arm strength for the out route. Dobbs didn’t play in Jacksonville he is definitely worth a roster spot for some team. Ben loves him and appreciate how he breaks film down for Ben

 

[Goalie_Bob]

If Dobbs is such a savant and Ben feels he is needed then why doesn't the team just hire him as a special assistant?

 

[Pens1566]

Didn't see any of Haskins ... why was Harris in there so long? Ugh.
