Bad angle by Gilbert there.

Is Snell not playing because he is a lock to make it or he was too slow to make the team bus to Canton?

Lots of confusion and miscommunication in our secondary.

It would be a very Tomlin-esqe move to cut Harvin even though I haven’t seen a Steeler punter kick it that well in 20 years. Preseason or not.

That was ridiculous. The only good thing about that is it running clock with so little time left.

How about some positives? I'll start

Harris
Highsmith
Roche
Buddy Johnson
Punter

Have any to add?

This kid has won the job

Even his worst punt resulted in a TO

Good stuff

They spent a draft pick on this guy. They LOVE their draft picks more than anything.

Howard Griffith had to resort to chop-blocking him during the 1997 AFC Championship Game. An incredulous Kirkland asked Griffith, “Why do you have to use cheap tactics like chop-blocking?” Griffith replied “Why do you have to be a 300-pound linebacker?”

All 3 QB's had some really nice plays.

I would start Haskins in the next game, if Roethlisberger doesn't play.

I'd like to see him with Harris and the starting o-line (or at least the o-line they consider the starting o-line at present).

Harris had zero room to run and that is worrisome.

I’m not gonna sweat the lack of holes/running lanes with who they threw out there

If the opening day starters look like that…yeah, then I’ll worry
