My thoughts on reg season wk 15

OCTOBER OF ???????

 

I have not seen it in a long time. Can't remember the last time. BUT...Miami quit tonight. Several players clearly lost interest in tackling and the playcalling the enitre second half was downright bizarre from Miami.

Good to see the Steelers win. But if I owned the Dolphins I would want to fire a ton of people before he plane landed.

 

Miami gave up

goodbye Broderick jones

Tua was awful

 

Maybe the PS coaching is better than the trash Meyer is dishing out

 

So can we bottle up what happened tonight and use on other days, and maybe take a swig during a playoff game?

What a great game!!!!

 

That’s because the Dolphins coach is an idiot for getting away from his running game.

 

Because it has worked at a decent rate.

 

Great game from the boys and coaching staff. The Cleveland game will be ultra important if Baltimore losses one of thier next two.

 

Less throws to Warren and Gainwell...more throws to DK, CA3, hyphen dude... can't remember his name and Theilen.

 

Almost impossible when you think about it.

 

Sure hope it doesn't come down to week 18 cause we may be flexed to a damn night game. I don't think they end regular season with MNF but wouldn't that be great for us if we needed to beat Ravens.

 

IMO Browns gonna be one tough game. Garrett be flying and it's Brown fans SB for the season.

 

Best we had since Benny boy but I still can't stand to look at that pinched face. I know some guys said if he keeps it up they'd like him back next year. IMO it would be another year not being a SB contender. And another year we still don't have a long term QB.

 

Jaylen Warren missed the run gap but circled back to hit it dead on:

 

The game vs Detroit will mean almost nothing....It could be the same thing against the Browns if the ravens won at least 1 of their next 2 games.If they have a L in both of those games,you play to win vs Cleveland(the steelers will know that before that game since they play on saturday night in week 17 vs Green Bay)since they could clinch the division vs browns in this scenario but if they are 1-1 or 2-0,it would be the good decision for the steelers to rest their starters since this game would mean nothing

 

Dylan Cook handled his business!!!

Letting Minkah go was a solid decision. He disappeared his last two seasons here.

 

While Cook was ok in pass blocking, the Steelers didn't do much running to his side. Teams will adjust their defense going forward so it will be interesting to see how the Steelers match.

 

You can’t leave out Austin’s block where he came from about 12 yards away weaving to make the final perfect block. That entire play was perfect. Rodger’s throwing a bullet that would have been a pick if not thrown so sharp. DK catching and throwing Fitzpatrick off him and then Austin making the perfect block on Fitz again to get DK into the end zone. I think I’ve watched this play 30 times already and counting. Don’t leave out the incredible pass protection. Probably thee best offensive Steelers football play I’ve seen since the Holmes SB TD catch.

 

sign Tomlin-- sign Rodgers --sign Gainwell-sign Scantling-Got to keep these guys around

 

I think you're right that this is the most likely outcome. I think we needed the Bengals to beat the Ravens for that game to not matter. Because then there were paths where we could have won on the division tie breaker if we tied head-to-head.

I think the most likely scenario where that game doesn't matter is we lose to DET but beat CLE. And BAL loses to NE and GB. But my guess is that the Rats won't lose both of these games.

I just don't think we win both of these next two games. But this team is hard to figure out this year. And for whatever it's worth, they may be "peaking" right now.

 

dylan cook. told ya that scrub could play. it's like they have never seen him before. this guy has been right under your nose for near 3 years. that is part of the reason that this staff pisses fans off. why do they continue to struggle finding guys that can play and trying to fit square pegs in round holes. took them years to use washington properly too. this is crazy. it's like cutting off your nose to spite your face. good win but coaching is still a problem.

 

Oddly enough I felt like Samuel was trying NOT to blow him up and just inadvertently went low. Would have been an unfortunate result, but not at all intentional IMO.
