I called this one

I told my wife before this game even started that the steelers will probable loose. Why??? Its because the NFL is all a setup. I've been watching football for 35 years+ and i'm telling you things like this happen so we have the underdog story and the crazy ends to games. Look how the steelers didn,t really give a **** about getting that 1 first down to seal the game then the kicking kicks a really short kick at the worse time of the game. Why I even watch football anymore is beyond me. I'm f--king tire of these fixed games. Just think about this game and others we have lost before I get blasted about how crazy I am thinking this way.

I'll always be a steeler fan,but this is getting to be just to much.

 

Nice post but what you are calling a "setup" is just really poor coaching.

It seems most coaches in the NFL opt to punt away in that similar situation and let their defense "win" the game. I my eyes, if you get the first down it is a 100% chance of winning. The downside of attempting to win is that their "might" be a turn over. Well there might be a turnover running it 3 times. Also in our case we have a future HOB qb. Also our defense sucks.

TL;DR Bad coaching decision

 

Setup? More like bad coaching, playing, and drafting.

 

I don't think the games are fixed, we just came out today as we have do often the last few years; flat, uninspired, unprepared, got outplayed and OUTCOACHED!

 

I didn't think we were going to lose but I was worried it would be close and not what a lot of people was thinking it was going to be an easy win. The Steelers don't have easy wins. Even the Carolina game came down to that muff punt. If it wasn't for that Carolina had the momentum.

If Antonio Brown makes that catch on the flee-flicker we are 3-1.
