    The Jags did not see, hear, or feel him. Did he play? Bud! Buddy Dupree! Come out, come out from where ever you are hiding. Coaches are amazing. Go ahead play the inferior injured Buddy and sit the superior, uninjured Chick. Dumb, dumb, DUMB! Next year some team will sign a Steelers' gift in the person of Chickillo.

    It's infuriating to watch him jump inside, and leave no one on the edge to contain the runner.

    Not sure he was on the field but I saw him on the sidelines doing a choreographed DWTS style dance routine with Shazier.:shrug:

    Tomlin with his pithy comments...makes me sick....and his comments still don’t equal wins....shoulda, coulda, woulda been a 5-0 team right now with that schedule. Keep it up Tomlin with your great philosophical mind. Maybe you should just teach somewhere instead of coach. I’m sure some liberal college kids will eat it up.

    Yeah, I saw a bit of the D celebrating here and there... Maybe they should've been trying to put an arm around the O boys and pump them up. I really think the team is divided and it gets hidden within wins.

    The last couple years we've seen stuff spill out here and there from current captains and former players.

    So many different angles to broach and views to presume, but I firmly believe the coaching staff have no control of the team and some of the men just shuffle along knowing speaking out just causes deeper divide and it has done very much just that when they have. There is so much floating around out there about our team that you can't help but believe some of it.

    I'll say this, the D is trending upwards but will fold if they aren't being complemented. The offense has gotten far more predictable than the old days of run run pass and we asked why not throw it on first? It's now week in week out the same packages regardless of opponent and these packages are becoming increasingly not situationally smart on top of being predictable. He'll defending db's aren't too far off from running the WR routes crisper than the wr's?!?!?!?!?!?

    Coaches need to get tough and reel this **** in! If Haley is ****ting the bed can him! Right now! Next man up right? Tell Ben to shut up and play ball. If he can't, next man up right? Bench his ass when he's too hurt or too off or whatever. Maybe that approach is too late as it's never been done. If he broke his back and still drug himself onto the field Tomlin will ride him! Just like he rides insistently anybody and everything in game that is not OBVIOUSLY working?!?!?!?!?!? He doesn't have a what's good for the next series, next qtr, next, next week or latter part of the season approach. If they refuse to adjust, then atleast invoke the next man up mantra failure or not so that we can atleast believe they are trying to find anything pliable to the given situation.

    I remember steeler ball after the golden years and I knew they weren't good, but I never questioned their heart or the coaching staff (outside of quite a few draft misses) I just simply knew they weren't good outside of a few players. Cowher came along and so did the team... Cowher got Ben and then himself checked out after the bowl win. This team has changed from owner to ball boy and isn't what a lot of us grew up with and that's just how the world spins these days, but damnit folks need to be held accountable top to bottom regardless of hurt feelings etc....

    I'd fire Haley in a heart beat... If I'm being fickle about it fine I'd do it just to see if the reaction from it resulted in what the same thing did for Cincinnati's O a couple weeks ago. I'd also tell Tomlin that he better clean **** up because a lot of this nonsense is going on under his watch! I'd tell Ben that if his bags are already packed, the. Thanks but take a seat. I'd also shake up the roster and atleast start trying to jam square pegs into round holes albeit with different personnel and different packages as their current definition of insanity isn't working regardless of being 3-1 and now 3-2. Hardly knee jerking at this point as there is plenty of time to right the ship and I'm used to the statues quo (keep your heart into it til it's done somehow) but if you're gonna keep beating to the same drum and blame execution over inept preparedness, lack of adjustments, unwillingness to bench or sub players if for nothing else to find a spark or help preserve til another day, and or hold folks (Players and oaches) accountable, then yeah they're screwed even if they find the next franchise QB... Patients are running the hospital and I believe that at this point and it really is saddening... Need some bosses, not buddies.... Accountability!

    I saw him after the game at 5:00 at Hyde Park steakhouse with Chickillo and their gfs downing lobster, oysters, and wine. He seemed fine there. :hmm:

    Leonard Fournette 'felt' Bud Dupree, he stiff armed him into the ground on a 15-yd run.

    Both Dupree and Watt were failing to contain today. They both got beat to the outside multiple times for long runs.

    he's always misquoted with this. It is obvious that he said 'get back out of the lav' as in lavatory. :(

    Mitchell got a taste of Fournette on the same play. It didn't shut him up, although the 90 yard dash may have. I doubt it though.

    I haven't always focused on him, but I haven't seen Dupree do much of anything this year. I haven't seen many "near misses" either where he's close to the QB etc. I see a lot more from Watt, just missing a batted pass or getting a QB hurry.
    I would like to see how many times Dupree has dropped back in coverage vs rush though.

    yep both failed to contain, but Watt had more tackles. Not sure if Dupree even had 1 tackle against the Jags.

    Comfort food does wonders after getting your butts kicked. :lolol:


    Not saying that would be my course of action but I would imagine a place like that is quite good.

    Our starters just don't have the necessary experience playing together...full squad, no suspensions, no injuries- its been awhile. It'll take time for it to come together, but we have alot of the right pieces, week by week in the NFL :drinks:
