26 Times

Now just imagine if the Ravens run it 26 times successfully this week. That should entail not only being fired or cut, but a lifetime ban from the City of Pittsburgh.

 

I don't know if the Ravens will run this play this week, but I bet the Dolphins will on Monday night. If we still can't stop it, everyone will run it on us until we can.

 

You're starting to sound like me

 

Damn, I thought it was only 25 times.

 

Saw that 4th down goal line play again. Baldinger analyzed it. Clearly the WR comes off the line blocking on what he said was a "RuB" route. Now the rest of the coverage was garbage, but he clearly steps off the line and goes into a blocking posture just throwing a hip get the TE open on the block.

100 percent should have been called back.

 

So again, not just to the OP but also everyone who has or will respond to this post, losing Derrick Harmon did the Steelers little to no favors. Without him, the Defense suffered not just because of the lack of contain by the Corners but also the lack of penetration from the IDL. If anything, this Buffalo game just exposed how much worse the teams IDL Depth is than initially thought.


Who's to say that IDL isn't on the shortlist heading into next offseason?! I'd put money on it that IDL is going to be drafted much sooner rather than later.

 

The certainly need to address it. They did try in the offseason, but they are missing two of the guys they brought in right now. Harmon is a huge loss, but Ekuale had also been solid before tearing his ACL in October. Brodric Martin-Rhodes was their in-season attempt at adding depth. He's big, but I didn't see him helping much despite getting a good bit of playing time Sunday.

 

thank you Tomlin.

Thank you Rooney.

 

you can see that depleted offensive line preventing any penetration at the line of scrimmage and of course our corner diving into the fake. It will work as many times as anyone wants to run this play

 

They were ok heading into the season with Daniel Ekuale as a solid backup/rotation player. His injury hastened getting Black into the lineup. He needs at least another year of development.

 

well at least we signed a corner to the active roster.

 

Anyone remember when Big Snack hit Eddie George of the Titans mid air and super slo-mo showed that George was knocked out (and fumbled) before he hit the ground. It was the Division playoff game in2002.Sure miss that kind of run defense. There's a video on YouTube of this play (actually full 2nd half) but NFL rules won't let me post it here. It's the first play of the 2nd half right after the KO. Awesome D and player.
