If it walks and talks like a duck

Maybe the players don't like the implication, but they haven't done anything to change why it continues to happen. I guess none of them ever heard actions speak louder than words.

Sunday’s loss to the Ravens was the 13th loss to a sub-.500 team the last four seasons, which is more than enough to make it more than a statistical fluke.

“Criticism for the coaches? No, they aren’t out there,” guard Ramon Foster said. “We are the ones who have to make the plays. Those guys didn’t do anything differently than in weeks past. We just have to make our plays and execute the plan, and we didn’t do that. That falls on us.”

Even last year when they lost to the 2-14 Buccaneers, it didn’t sting like this one, since a win would have put them in the driver’s seat for the playoffs, and now they have to beat the Browns and hope the Bills beat the Jets. The fact they lost control against a team starting its fourth quarterback of the year just makes it look that much worse, but they don’t like the implication they didn’t take the Ravens as seriously.

“We definitely didn’t overlook the Baltimore Ravens,” running back DeAngelo Williams said.

 

Ducks don't talk, they quack. And they don't walk, they waddle. Try visiting a pond or petting zoo you hack.

Sorry, I am taking my anger out on the wrong people

 

it's a rabbit

 

After JPP's posts in the Gameday thread and his posting spree this week I'm thinking he must have gotten a computer for Christmas.

 

remember the snow game they lost to Miami the other year? Tannehill had never played in snow in his life - that game cost us the playoffs. Brown had a long run at the end but stepped out of bounds on the way to the end zone.

 

I will say this.... I was more worried about this game than either the Bengals or the Broncos......

Why? 23 loses against 52 losing record teams in Tomlins era......... That is not good when he's had a top tier defense and Franchise QB his whole tenure.

yeah
too bad he couldn't execute on that last play that was drawn up and practiced all year by our team and coaches

 

Thanks for the minor disclaimer.

Who freaking cares? Y'all will grasp at the tiniest of straws. Next up it will be Tomlin can't win a game west of the Mississippi during a full moon if it's rained the last 14.5 hours

 

my favorite is
you can put lipstick on a pig...
or
if it looks like smells like
it must be

 

I wish, would have been better than what the Steelers left me.

Just had lots more time on my hands than normal, modified basketball season is over, weather has gotten bad and several days off so what better way to spend some time

 

whats your thing with straws strummer?


it's crazy

 

You forgot if it tastes like

 

soft serve chocolate ice cream

 

I believe it's actually 12.7 hours. Just sayin'.

 

wait
is it rained for the last 12.7hrs or rained within the last 12.7 hrs
if it is for the last ,then, the duck is appropriate

 

"Good thing we didn't step in it........!"

 

Rained within. He's actually undefeated in the former; the infamous Noah's Ark Bowl of '48 BC. Couldn't believe how much he tried running the ball that game though.

 

I was going to say judging by his post.. Somebody is off for Christmas break

 

Yeah but things have changed a little bit since back then.....I mean it was only 2 offensive players vs 2 defensive,you know since Noah only took 2 of each kind.....

 

I watched yesterday's Steeler's Live broadcast. Missy Mathews, Bob Labriola and Tunch Ilkin both said they go to the practices. Tunch stated that Tomlin runs a very tight, high-energy practice. Bob Labriola stated everybody practiced and still did their usual prep routines (same ones they did to prep for Broncos); including individual work after practice. Missy Mathews stated they even practiced on Christmas day.

Martavis Bryant (1 catch for 6 yards) and Marcus Wheaton both missed long passes that would have provided much-needed production and momentum for the offense. Ben had a bad day with bad passes and 2 INTs.

If the offense isn't producing, then this team isn't winning. Period.

 

They lost to 2-14 Jets last year, too.

 

What's the Ravens team color? That's right - and it's definitely the last straw! Al Fin.

 

which is the game I was watching out on the outer banks and happened to be drinking duckrabbit for the first time
oh the humanity
