    2 Glennon fumbles so far. One on a snap. 0 first downs so far. They aren't running all over GB. GB ran all over them to open the passing game.


    Steelers might be worse then we thought :facepalm:

    Execution and fundementals are to blame for these types of losses.



    Even players like David DeCastro have started to question such losses as well.

    I noticed Green Bay scored by going deep on third and short and going 4 wide at the goal line. Here, people would want to hang Haley for doing that.

    Well, Rodgers is on of the top 3 QBs in the league. Ben is a top 20 QB in the league right now....

    Mike Glennon didn't beat us.

    -Our special teams beat us by muffing a punt and getting a FG attempt blocked
    -Our defense beat us by being over aggressive, not staying in their lanes, and trying to decleat running backs instead of wrapping them up and bringing them down
    -Our offense beat us by not taking what the Bear's defense was giving, instead trying to force it to AB or to MB 50 yards down field.

    I'm not watching the game, but my son just yelled upstairs and said "we lost to the Bears???!!!". He also asked me if the Bears played the same quarterback last week since he didn't watch the game. Sorry I had to tell him that they did and that he threw for a whopping 102 yards against us...AND WE STILL LOST TO THEM THANKS TO MAKING THEIR BACKFIELD LOOK LIKE THE SECOND COMING OF GAYLE SAYERS AND WALTER PAYTON!!!

    Cause folks expect that several to atleast morph into a couple methinks. its parody, it's football, etc... These boys are supposed to be better every year then what's become common place the years before. Atleast they're consistent go STEELERS!

    Sounds like the Steelers played down to the competition yet again just as so many times before in the Tomlin era.

    Looks like I picked a good week to boycott the NFL.

    Wouldn't want to get anymore frustrated than I was Sunday night.

    I dont think its unique to the Steelers, even NE has a clunker every year. Most teams, like the Steelers, have more than 1.

    It was at Chicago and near 100 degrees on the field. Tonight they are playing at GB in the rain against a divisional opponent. Not saying they are better than their record but we saw what the Vikings did at home versus on the road.

    Was attempting to reply in a majority fold. Its no more unique to this team then others I agree, but it's pretty unique to this team on its own just the same... To the tune of a few. It sucks and blame is fanned all around but ultimately the blame doesn't accomplish much.

    Their inability to beat lesser teams stat measured or not is on par with their inability to stop 3rd and long over the middle for many a season with many a different ILB suspect in coverage hahahaha. Their my preferred team ride and die but some things don't change and have not changed recently. As always, GO STEELERS!

    Hoping something will change but I'm not sure why as the root of the issue never changes. I'm sorry but if this keeps happening every year, it has nothing to do with the players. It's the coaching and preparation. Bayern Munich losses one game in CL and they fired their coach. That's the kind of accountability we need around here.

    It seems to ALWAYS be the completion of the circle after we lose to an obviously weaker team -- that weaker team goes back to its weak role the next week. May just be a perception, but the smart money is usually betting the spread on that weaker team's opponent the following week.....

    When I see that the stat that the Ravens have the 32nd ranked offense, and knowing how the Steelers' offense has struggled, it becomes a sure bet..... bet the over.....

    [QUOTE="SDOT, post: 498790, member: 2084] Bayern Munich losses one game in CL and they fired their coach. That's the kind of accountability we need around here.[/QUOTE]

    Slightly different situation: BM had brought in a new coach with a completely different style to the previous one, had reportedly lost the locker room, and didn't get on with the owners. So it wasn't just because they got knocked out of the CL early.

    And it's still not necessarily the right move to make.

    What you're suggesting sounds like the Browns strategy.

    This.

    They could have had anyone back there, tbh. We shut down their passing game other than the late releasing RB who, for some reason, nobody thought to watch.
