    And a 4th string LT who played accordingly

    Let's hope McCarthy is growing a new turnip with blood in it. :lolol:

    What about the poor defense who gave up over 400 yards despite the texans QB was awful?

    They weren't scoring though early on even if you put McVay as HC of the Steelers in that game they weren't going to win.

    Some people forget the score was 7-6 until the offense gave the ball away for a score, and then turned around, and gave the ball away again. Maybe they should watch the game again, and stop looking at stats.
    Oh wait I forgot some people think that yards are more important than points. LoL

    Some people think when teams score they teleport into the end zone and yards given up does not matter.

    The game was over at 7-6, the Steelers could have played 10 more quarters and wouldn't have scored another point.

    I don't think the Steelers were going to win the game but Metcalf dropping that pass early on could've been huge for momentum.

    I 100% agree the offense was the biggest reason why they lost but the defense still wasn't good... Stroud kept the Steelers in the game for a very long time; an average performance from him would have been worse for the steelers... I mean, the Texans still had over 400 offensive yards and 10-15 on third down in this game despite the poor game by Stroud
