Steelers would have been pretty bad ass with Tannehill as back up. Goddamn it.

A great run for the Tits comes to an end.

But the initial running lanes in the trench are wide open; massive. Just wildly impressive. 49ers are for real.

Almost beat them in SF with Mason fucking Rudolph. Haha.

I didn't want the Niners to advance but their D is insanely good.

Their OL is built to run the ball. John Lynch built this team in the mode of the old TB Bucs. Run the ball super effectively, Game mgr at QB (Jimmy G) in the mode of a Brad Johnson/Shaun King and a shutdown D which lays the hammer and creates turnovers.

GB isn't built to stop this running attack they are too light in the front 7 and have no answer for Sanders, Kittle and co. in the passing game.

Creative coaching, game planning, and play calling...on both sides of the ball.

Says every Tomlin defender...everywhere. :lol:

Kyle missed 6 games and their run suffered a bit. He provides that push where the big guys open the holes. Look at those holes and chunks RM is getting. This is his best game ever

Has beens like Jerry Rice on the sidelines acting like they’re part of what’s happening on the field is laughably pathetic.

You made it sound like he was a scrub

But we have our old players there all the time

Has been-“a person or thing considered to be outmoded or no longer of any significance.”

I don’t think Rice works for the 49ers...at least not officially.

Yep...old time Steelers players have appeared at games and certain occasions. Unless I missed it, never seen any of them act like a jackass on the sidelines.

Never had any dislike for Rice...but he’s acting like an idiot. Maybe I expected more from him.
But yep...moving on.

So the TE pushes the defender out of the way...and the defender gets flagged?

I wish the Steelers incorporated the FB the way the Niners do. Also wish that Nix could stay healthy so we can do so.

Nix isn’t in the same ballpark as Juszczyk. He should be at the top of the cut list.
