    9 out of 10 by a highschooler. That's how easy that catch is.

    You get a 1st down if You get it vs an automatic 3 points for the other team if You don't . It's a dumb call. If it's the end of the game, and You need it, but it wasn't. It was dumb

    We are on to face the Ravens who have the worst Pass Defense in the league. I kind of was shocked when they said this Thursday Night, as I have always assumed that the Ravens had a good defense. Loosing Hamilton isn't going to help improve that defense.

    Exactly! Well said. I like the play design. I give them credit for getting an open look. But that doesn't make it a good call. The risk wasn't worth the reward.

    Just watched it again, and no, it was dropped at around the 35 yard line with two Washington players approaching. It would have taken a good pass to Pierre in stride, by a safety not a QB, to get much further.

    We talk about the fake punt who cost 7 points for the steelers,the fumble punt for the commanders in the second quarter also cost 7 points to them but this is even for me

    Don't forget the Preston Smith trade either! Nick Herbig is coming back but Hamstring injuries are tricky to contend with. Never know how those will play out. Preston Smith was just as much of a factor in the win against [NAME REDACTED].


    Baltimore is up next though. Should Pittsburgh win against Baltimore, the AFC North is firmly in control of the Steelers.

    Analytics says an opponent has almost the same probability to score from a punt at the 15 yard line as they would from a possession at the 15 yard line.

    Analytics are simply numbers and probabilities. They are neither smart nor dumb. That is left to the people using/not using them.

    I know what they are, but in anything that involves pain, fear, fatigue, and heart it's a waste. That's why it's great in some sports , and stupid in other to rely on. Because it never really factors in any of that.
