    Few are ever going to be Watt, but putting that line on a rook in the 1st game of the season? Put overreaction instead of Overmatched. (yes that word was for the entire team, but still...)

    You do realize Fields has had great games as a pro before, right? He did it here and there with the Bears, too. He just can't sustain it. I think that was more about the Steelers' defense deserving blame than him deserving credit.

    In Chicago yes when he was a young player in a poor team and coaching staff..remember when the Bears tried to make Claypool their number 1 wide receiver.It was that bad

    Worrisome coming off of last season when they simply would not use him. What is going on.

    You missed arguably the biggest problem on those running plays. The inside linebackers sucked. I lost track of how many times I saw them either fall for a stutter step and let the back get outside or take themselves out of the play by misreading where it was going. They were really bad.

    He was still doing it when they had a better offensive coach and when he had plenty of weapons at receiver his final season in Chicago. He had a handful of great games, then sucked the rest of the time.

    Boswell for the hall of fame. That kick was straight as piss and would have been good from 65 yards.

    Rodgers played the best game of a Steeler QB in the past FOUR years.

    Our D was that bad...

    Our pass protection was spotty.

    And I don't know what the coaches were thinking playing Gainwell so often

    It’s definitely a luxury to have a kicker who calmly nails a 56 yd and a 60 yd while other teams are struggling with ones <40 yd.

    Some folks lost their **** over someone hinting at any comparison of Harris to Bettis, but bringing up Marino in this context is far worse.

    I never said Fields was as good that Marino...I said it could be one of the worse decision by the steelers since Dan Marino

    The ILBs were bad... but the interior D line was getting blown up all day. The Jets O line were abusing them.

    I heard a lot about P Wilson having a big year. Game 1 was a complete flop.

    Because he can block when B Jones gets abused.

    The defense played better 2 years ago when we got blown out by the 49ers on opening day. :lolol:

    I thought Rodgers did a good job except that pass that should have been intercepted.

    When he took a sack, mostly it was because he had no time and there was nobody open.

    If a receiver is open and he has time, he is very likely to find him. This is a pleasant change.

    Good to see some humility from Queen. Hope the others feel the same way.

    You are right. They were completely missing and out of position. Hey we agree on something.
