Steelers at Cowboys Gameday Comments

[zeke5123]

Once there was a loss on first down, the next two plays were a given. Run that results in a stuff followed by throwing underneath with zero chance of a first.

2nd and long is the down you need to be playing for 7-10 yards in that situation. So frustrating

[Kodiak]

Ok the 2nd and long run and then throw short of the sticks is REALLY becoming a tendency.

I can see taking this game lightly but can we MIX IT UP on these downs, please?

Almost every team in the league gives up on 3rd and 16 early in the game. One of the things I loved about young Ben was he was always throwing beyond the sticks on 3rd and long.

this play calling on offense is putrid

[Jizz Mop]

Easing into a game we are supposed to win in lopsided fashion

Infuriating

[zeke5123]

OK time for ben to say to Randy fuck you i calling the plays

Perhaps randy is saying fuck you ben for calling me out...I kid...I think

[bradshaw2ben]

Sphincter's stellar play calling.

The only play I really liked so far was the 3rd and 7 deep shots to Claypool. Otherwise completely wasting time on offense so far.

They need to STOP with a slow developing plays near the LOS. We look like fucking molasses out there

[stillcajun]

Nobody plays down to the level of the competition like a Mike Tomlin coached team.

It's a battle of attrition if you will. Defending every blade of turf. Obviously. We're Indians in their Cowboys film if you will.

Is this really what they scripted for the first 15 plays??

Jeemie, they didn’t throw short of the sticks on 3rd and 16, they fucking threw short of the LOS!! WTF

[Kodiak]

You named your red-headed kid Garrett Gilbert? Wow

THIS^^^

[steelmann58]

The screen game is a joke the worst i have seen.

[Orangesteel]

How in the hell do we come out like we did against TEN but look like this against DAL?

Because Randy Fitchner is a Bush league OC

[LakecrestSteeler]

Unfortunately, Randy and Mikey love/have to move 3 or 4 pawns out 3 or 4 blocks out on the chess board. That is why the slow start. Sacrificial series. When the 3 or 4 pawns are virtually in place, then they open the playbook.

[tunch]

Highsmith playing so well.

Makes me feel a lot better about this being Dupree's last year.

That's an interesting perspective. I believe they will sign either Bud or JuJu, but not both. Most of us have been assuming DJ and Washington would make that an easy call. Never even considered Highsmith makes that an easy call on the other side of the ball.

I think Bud benefits the most from the rest of the talent on defense.

We can replace at least 90% of his production for cheap.

[Obviously]

Cowboys offense looking much more inspired than Sphincter's.

That's actually an interesting analysis.

[Obviously]

Good discipline on the D there.

[jeemie]

Cowboys might as well go for it...what do they have to lose?

Of course in the shitty NFC East, if they can hang in until Dak is back, they could win the division.

[steelmann58]

his replacement is already on this team

[Kodiak]

that would have been one of the gutsiest calls I've ever seen if they went for it on 4th there

[Orangesteel]

Just wasted an entire quarter of football

[Obviously]

You named your red-headed kid Garrett Gilbert? Wow

Andy Dalton was already used.

[TTP]

Steelers lucky Mccarthy is such a pussy. That's 90%+ conversion on 4th and inches.

[Stosh-67]

I do not think they script plays.

Did......did you not see Dak's injury? He ain't coming back this year

[jeemie]

Someone remind Mike Tomlin if we win, the reporters get to trot out The Line.

Quick.

[COR-TEN]

I would have gone for it.
