Week 1 Steelers vs. Falcons Official Gameday Thread

I claim the honor of starting the first gameday thread of the 2024 season. Go Stillers!

 

At least it's not up early

LETS GO STEELERS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

Another exciting season of leather helmet offensive football is on tap! Please somehow just be exciting to watch again!!

 

If it's anything like the first two games of this NFL season it will be amazing game. Just hope we are on the winning side of it.

NFL got lucky starting the season with two good games.

 

It will be Fields if the steelers are smart....

 

Tomlin is working his magic causing Falcons to prepare for 2 QB's

 

And I'm glad someone else made this thread since the steelers don't have a good record when I make the gamethread.

Of course I have a bad feeling that the steelers are going to give up over 30 points in this game on defense and the slot CB position is going to be a disaster

 

A crazy bad stat for the steelers

They did not score a offensive TD in the first quarter in week 1 since 2014 and before that it was in 2008!...But at least their week 1 record is still good,but still a crazy stat

 

The wait is nearly over! Let's go.

 

I figured it out. That’s why he plays musical chairs with the offensive lineman ... to mess with the opposing defensive lineman heads and make them have to prepare for multiple lineman.

 

Man I hope not. I have high expectations for the defense this year. I can’t say the same for the offense.

 

Did you set your alarm to go this

Or did you just have to pee

 

The other coach even brought this up

 

Drinking coffee late on Saturday night leads to premature posting. Or what jeh1856 said as the latter.

Just messin...

GO Steelers

 

Not sure if this is sarcasm?

 

You need an offensive line to do that. Not a collection of trash cans.

 

If you remember, we started out looking very good in last years preseason. Maybe we have been slow to show anything good in an attempt to change how last year started. I don’t know if this is the case, but we usually don’t perform in the preseason like we did last year. And yes, I am projecting hope!!!

 

So you are saying it's not going to be a start like KC/Balt. had. If I bet on each qtr. as some family members do I'd bet at the end of 1st, score will be 0-0.

 

You get this game at 6-7 PM your time I think? Every Sunday game is a night game for you. I hope you like night games.

 

Sarcasm I'm pretty sure. I got a good laugh out of it.

 

Yeah 6pm, 9.25pm or like 1.20am kick off for games so to me I associate NFL with evening/late night all the time. The prime time games are a pain sometimes with work the next day but I can't not watch them.

 

It is.

 

If Tomlin is outcoached today by his good friend Raheem Morris.....

 

I heard one of Dan Patrick's 'Stat of the day' jingles when I read this, lol. One first quarter TD in 15 years? We need some offensive ex-lax to get things started.
