Steelers vs. Bengals Game Thread - Merry Christmas Edition!

When the nfc east has a better chance of winning a playoff game than you do smh

 

What day of the week do they work on the 2 min offense at practice? Do the Steelers practice any contingencies?

 

At this time of the season your suppose to get better not lose games!!!

 

You're so right, ESPN gave up 24 points to Carter Finley, It's soooo there fault

 

Exactly what I was thinking. This was a terrible day for Steelers Nation!
Well goodnight all and Merry Christmas. Maybe Santa will bring this team some f’n heart!

 

Nah lol life sucks sometimes, but could be worse.

 

This team is going to lose a lot of free agents, they can't afford to give up two 1s for a QB, Ben said he was playing next year. I think even if he retired, they would still take a big cap hit.

 

Merry Christmas

 

Is it their fault the network sucks?, or is that the Steelers fault also?

 

No need to trade up for QB. There are like 6-7 good QB coming out this year.

 

#51 didn’t have a good game?
At least 2 TDs went right by him.

Thought he was here to ball.

 

Magic 8 Ball says: the answer is obvious

 

Isaid earlier this week we should rest Ben this game and go with MR, , Now we cant rest him nxt week either

 

He, Allen, and Highsmith were all terrible tonight.

Sometimes I really hate being right. I knew the Dupree injury was a killer and I was right. They miss Spillane and Williams, too. The Bengals did a great job taking advantage of that, especially in the second half.

The defense fell apart after the first quarter. If Finley could throw, the final score would have been much worse.

Clearly, Gilbert cannot play. If he could, they would have at least tried him in place of Allen at some point.

The defense might recover a little if they can get Williams and Spillane back, but it won't be enough with that offense.

 

There are not too many other options that could be considered. Desmond Ridder from the University of Cincinnati but he is a ways off in terms of being "the guy". As I said in another thread, assuming either Lance or Wilson somehow free fall that far, it will take that much to acquire one of them. I doubt there is a Free Agent worth grabbing the same come 2021 either. Some might state Dwayne Haskins but neither Tomlin nor Colbert went to OSU's Pro Day back in 2019. As such, the likelihood of him coming here is very slim. Same goes for Darnold albeit different reasons. Big Ben's cap hit is the issue here.

 

Ryan Clark on ESPN doesn’t think Steelers can beat Colts or Browns.

It hurts him to say that.

Ben coming to podium.

 

Ben and Mason are under contract for 2021, so I don't expect a major move to acquire a QB.

 

Agree to disagree.

 

Worst part of all this is randy stays on my avatar. Jesus lol

 

Lets say we pick in the mid 20s in the draft, What would it take to move up 10 spots?

 

I don't think the Steelers could beat the Jets or Jags right now

 

They are going to tinker, roll this roster out again... and it will be extremely ugly. It's time to move on from a lot of players. I said elsewhere I'd let 2021 suffer just to clear out some contract ugliness and start reloading for 2022. Ben is completely done, the OL is a disaster, the RBs and TEs aren't good, Juju can go if he wants any kind of big pay day, and the OC is complete moron. Time to start over.

 

THESE "Steelers" suck.

 

Man that last drive for Steelers had no imagination. That 4th and 10, the receivers just ran straight up the field and just turned around.

No drag across the field. No slant? No Trickery? Play calling is trash.
