JUJU Takes blame for Steelers loss

No, JUJU. You were just trying to make a play. Lots of blame goes around including but not limited to the men in stripes.

 

Poor kid, no one blames JuJu for the loss...

 

Hey good for him. A leader always puts it on his shoulders.
We’re lucky to have him on our team.

 

It's not his fault. He didn't have much of a chance. DL are strong dudes .That wasn't a DB yanking at that ball, that was a 300 lb Monster . If it was a DB I'm sure he would have held on to it.

Nobody is perfect but Juju gives us a good chance to win with his play every week

 

I respect him for saying that, but the loss is not on him. Ridley's fumble, JuJu's fumble, bad tackling, the refs phantom calls.....it's a combination of things.

 

Surprised we heard JuJu's name so much this season and not so much A. B.

 

Mark Maddon does...About a 100 different tweets on Twitter blaming JuJu...Hates the kid with a passion!

 

Does anyone like Madden? The guy is an idiot.

 

Can't put it on him, no telling if Steelers score a TD, FG or anything after that play. Even if say they'd tied it with a FG as time expired, the way things have been going, the Bus would probably have messed up the OT coin toss (again).

 

Tomlins fake FG with a Fullback to get 5 yards...Tomlins non challenge on the Thomas catch ( they scored a TD ) scared to throw the flag because he lost a 100 challenges in a row? And still thumps his chest that's above his massive gut

 

The team needs a lot more players like him.

 

A real troll...A fat Ass troll...He makes 3-4 tweets a day...everyday...Talking **** on JuJu...A young kid who serves the community well, and is a breathe of fresh air...Fat Bastard loathes him for some reason

 

Must remind him too much of Hines Ward.

 

Makes me look like a model lol

 

It’s a shame because both he and AB had a monster of a game. First time all year where the opposing team had problems containing them. BTW, where was the TEs yesterday?

 

Look, I love Ju Ju but I am afraid many in this forum speak with forked tongue. Is he to blame? No.

He is not to blame any more than Boz is to blame. I see everyone giving Ju Ju a pass because he plays hard or that the DB's are tough or whatever but fail to give Boz the same consideration.

You do see how easy it is to cry, "off with their heads" when it is not your guy. Quick to trigger. If Boz is to be flogged and driven out of town for missing a FG or two this season, then certainly we could say that Ju Ju needs to bike on out of town too, right?

I am not saying that he should or needs to. All I am saying is if you are going to apply a standard then apply it across the board. Seems silly that we would release Ju Ju after his fumble that DID cost the steelers an attempt of a game tying FG but we without a doubt need to dump Boz after a couple of misses.

We should not be so quick to judge. I am a Boz fan. He was rock on last year and won a bunch of games for the Steelers. This year, no so much, but this stuff happens and is happens especially with kickers. Now, if this continues next year then a change would be warranted. Ridley on the other hand is a known fumbler. He has a history of fumbling, Boz has no such history of missing like he has done this year and certainly Ju Ju is not known as a fumbler.

 

A FG or two? Boz has been Shankalicious this season. I still stand behind him but for the most part he's been terrible and having by far his worst season of his career.

 

That was a fake punt.

 

JuJu is a youthful breath of fresh air to the franchise.
He’s an approachable nfl player, when most avoid it.
He’s been an absolute stud this season.
He’s not a reason we are losing games. Did his fumble not help yes, but yesterday was a combo of things.
I’ve been trying to get my kids 5 and 7 into this sport like nuts. They cheer for JuJu like he’s they only guy that matters. My 7 year old daughter was heart broken that juju was sad for fumbling. She said mistakes happen, we all learn from our mistakes.
Juju will return he will bounce back no doubt in my mind.

 

Madden is one of the dumbest people on the radio.

He also hated Ward because he wouldn’t get on his radio show.

 

He was nuts on Sunday. With any luck, he is back to where he was last year.

 

I do. Sort of. About 5 plays changed this game. He caused one of them.

Great kid. Glad we have him. Bad time for a fumble, if there is a good time.

 

HTF can anyone get on JuJu's case? OK, he fumbled at possibly the worst time, but what about the number of phenomenal catches he's come up with over the past couple of seasons? We're lucky to have a guy who will be, if he isn't aready, another AB for us.
We lost Sunday's game not because of his mistake, but because WE as a team produced the same feck ups we've somehow managed to repeat for most of this self-inflicted season.

Anyhoo, "here we go Cleveland, here we go"!

 

I know it came at the worst time possible but that was the first time he fumbled in his NFL career!It was kind of flukey because if the Saint wasn’t underneath him he might of hit the ground before fumbling.No way do I blame him for the loss.S... happens!!

 

He is the best player on the team as of 12-25-2018.
