    T J Watt is being triple teamed....Bud Dupree is one on one on the weakside even...he looks like a dear in headlights. Bud has no excuse my Grandma can rush better than him. What a disappointment. Just like Kevin Green and James Harrison. But at least Harrison could get someone every once and a while.

    Tonight have been a bad night for the Steelers (obviously). When T.J. Watt got his hand on Tom Brady's throwing arm, and the ball still ended up in Julian Edelman's hands, I was like "here we go". On one of the few times the Steelers defense get to Tom Brady in the backfield, of course Tom completes it to Julian. Lmao

    NE will make a lot of defenses look bad. Time to move on and get ready for Seattle.

    Bud was terrible against a rookie making his first start, his sack was a 6 sec coverage sack. Both Bud and the left tackle opposite him were first round picks one has 4 yrs exp the other zero one plays like a solid first rounder the other does not.

    You mean week 2 of the 2019 season and the home opener. They don't specifically plan for the team they are playing.

    Seahawks are gonna lay a whoopin' on the Steelers. Don't even get me started on the west coast game vs. 49ers in 2 weeks. :facepalm:

    I was a lot more worried about Seattle than the cheats. Seattle is a really great team with balance on both sides of the ball. The might just blow us out again...

    This game will get ugly quick. Seattle offense will generate at least 35 points... probably more.

    Seattle didn’t look too good yesterday. Either they aren’t or Cincy isn’t as a bad as expected

    I watched a lot of that game and I fear Cincy might not be as bad as expected (not saying they're good), so those could be 2 more Steelers games to sweat through...

    I watched a decent amount but I don’t know enough about either team. What I did notice was Cincy being able to free up their WRs quite easily against Seattle ,which doesn’t bode well for us. Daltons arm looked a little raggedy though. I’m thinking like you kthey might not be the push over I expected.

    Dalton had some misses that could have been the difference in the game.
    There were times when Cincy's D looked sharp, that's what really stood out to me.

    The Hawks was behind in points against the bengals the whole game untill the end which they won 21-20 and that was a home game in seattle, so if the steelers want to be embarrassed in front of their home crowd after that debacle last night, they better be motivated to play a lot better in this game, still I wouldnt be surprised if they arent prepared once again.....

    Probably better than what we saw last night.
    The Bengals had some of their typical bungles, or they would have won the game.
    The D was able to contain and sack Wilson though, which isn't easy.
