Big Game Today

Go Steelers!!!

MNF

Enjoy the game all!!!

 

Let's do this.

 

It’s a 5 star matchup, because we’re in it.

 

They should start the game at 7 PM. These late games stink when you have to wake up early the next day.

GO STEELERS!

 

This is a huge next 6 days in determining which way the Steelers season can go. It seems like we have been talking about these Bears and Lions games at home forever now and how they need to win them both to get to 6-3 and now they are finally here and both these games will get played in less then a week here starting tonight with the Bears game. Can’t afford a slip up tonight if you’re the Steelers. You better win this game and win Sunday against the Lions or the Steelers playoff chances will take a major major hit.

 

With what happened in the league yesterday, being 6-3 and trending up is huge

 

6-3 is no guarantee after what has happened to the Steelers since 2014, which are now referred to as "Tomlin egg-lay" games. Look no further than yesterday's results. If someone told me the Titans would beat Rams at home without Henry, Jags beating the Bills, Cowboys at home losing to the Broncos and Browns on the road laying a beatdown on the Bengals.... I would've thought this person was on some serious meth. I still think Steelers will drop one of these games. They will come out flat and totally crap the bed while either Bears or Lions get cheap easy points.... special teams miscues, fumbled snaps, safeties, etc.

This Bears game has the '14 Bucs trap home game written all over it. Steelers led the whole game until the end when the D crapped the bed and Bucs ended up winning by 3.

 

Stupid vikings let that victory slip away. Posers.

I'm hoping for a nice calm victory no edge of the seat $hit.

Hopefully this doesn't have the scent of a trap game. They need to shell this team.

 

Let's go Steelers!

 

They don't even have to be flat, they struggle mightily to score points. If the D can't force turnovers and the O is on long fields all day, they won't score 20.

That's just who they are.

 

Steelers have not lost a home MNF game in 30 years (1991)

Mike Tomlin is 0-3 against the Bears

Something has to give...

 

Well that's the whole problem. The offense doesn't sustain drives long enough and the D is gassed by late 3rd quarter. Harris on the O-line are improving, but the better teams with better QBs will eventually exploit our tired 4th quarter D.

 

One good thing about this night game.... Daylight Savings/Fall Back. We get an extra hour of sleep. It only lasts for about a week though... and then the body adjusts.

 

I fully expect them to use a lot of the same strategy against Fields that they do against Lamar and the Ravens when they play them...making sure they bottle him up and he doesnt break containment. Lamar doesnt seem to have the overtop games against the Steelers like he does other teams in the league and they seem to have his number a bit. Although less athletic and slower than Lamar, Fields can still get loose. I'm sure the coaches are keeping this In mind

 

Fixed it lol

 

I feel pretty good about this game - no idea why. I love the color rush uni's and they play pretty well in them so....Here We Go!

 

Agreed.


Love me some more sleep!!

 

Tie

 

Was out with some friends watching football with them yesterday and a few said Claypool is one of the biggest disappointments in the league. Not sure how much of that falls on Ben of course

 

I think Claypool is being guarded with much more respect than last year. Sometimes Rookies take the NFL by storm then get dialed back a bit. Give him a time season is only 1/2 over a lot can happen.

 

God I hope not that means Ill get home at like 4am tonight lol

 

At the moment the question is: Is it frigging 8:15 yet????????????????? I'm going golfing and taking super long just to pass the time not sitting at home waiting.

Will have the joy listening to Eagle fans ***** and moan.

 

I'd almost be happier with a 60 minute loss. Almost

 

Claypool would be a monster in the Slot.

Not sure who is holding Washington back from taking over one of the outside WR positions, so Claypool can run those across the field patterns. Ben/Tomlin/Canada
