My thoughts on reg season wk 8

Is it just me, but it seems obvious that Roman Wilson should be on the field way more and possibly slotted as the #2 receiver? I don't know how many plays he was in on tonight, but just based on what I saw he seems like he is capable. I keep assuming there is a good reason he rides the pine so much, but he sure looks like he could help the offense more of he was in the field more.

 

on National Tight End Day - we gave up the most yards to any tight end - by a long shot!

 

And we'll probably never know, but I wonder why this is the case. Does Watt really only have one or two moves from the left side? Is he that limited? When it worked, it was great, but (a) teams have figured out how to limit him and (b) he doesn't seem to have "it" anymore. Every defensive snap seems to be much the same - no creativity. Everyone on the line tries to beat their man, and if that doesn't work, the QB can pick apart the softness in the secondary, especially over the middle.

 

Does Watt even care? Wants to stay here so bad with 0 playoff wins. Not concerned moving around on the line…

made more noise for his payday lol

 

That's all you need to do to beat the Steelers. This book has been out on Pittsburgh since the old Brady beatdown years...everyone knows what we're going to do on defense...

 

Dashon Elliot is a HUGE loss.

 

Same here, so predictable, no in game adjustments. Since Ben left this team is really boring to watch anymore.

 

NFL from week to week can be somewhat shocking but wow unless we score 45 plus how can they win this.

 

My son says Rodgers cant catch a break.Said he was on the Packers when they had a ****ty defense
And now he is on the Steelers and they have a ****y defense.

 

He is but don’t fool yourself this D is still trash with him.

 

Colts are gonna put up 50 on this horrible defense.

 

I’ve been arguing about TJ watt for 2 straight years about not moving around. The OP was wrong about Watt not moving around even once. He actually did rush from the middle last night but it was just one single time for a 1 yard gain. As much as I hate to admit it. They should have traded TJ instead of giving him a huge contract. I hope to god they blow this thing up and get rid of Tomlin. He is lost on the sidelines. Packers coach was very involved. MT looked like he was up past his bed time.

 

Wonder what will be the over/under for Taylor for this game. Or Daniel Jones throwing for 350?

 

How does Jaylen Warren get 10 carries for 50 yds in the 1st half, and then carry the ball exactly 3 times in the 2nd?????

 

Reality its a "Prehistoric" defense.

 

Who gets the blame?

 

Packers #85 was Gronk 2.0!

 

What's even more brutal.... the best team in the NFL is next on the docket. If there's a team the Steelers DO NOT match up well against.... it's the current Indianapolis Colts.

 

How can this defense give up a long pass on a throw where Love simply launched the ball into the air like a wounded duck and this defense turns that into a long pass completion. The defender put his hands out to the side and didn't even know where the ball was. It floated down like a bird in it's death throes right into the hands of the TE. It looked like a punt. And yet somehow this defense turns that into a long completion. They were no where near knocking that ball down. I remember thinking "oh boy and interception". Nope long completion. This defense sucks.

 

On the duck that Love threw down to the five yard line, Rex Ryan said that the Steeler defender looked like a T-Ball center fielder.

 

Worked for Ben and Santonio in 2008!

 

Can't believe we could not intercept some of those passes that looked like he just threw them up. We have no ball hawks in the secondary and even worse tacklers. Seen better high school secondary.
