Steelers Texans Game Thread

[K_C_]

Well Pickett haterz, here comes Mitch.

Probably for the season.

I’m not sure how we’ll get by without the one TD per game, but I’m sure we’ll manage.

Good point.

The whole problem is Pickett.

Now it's fixed.

[anpsteel]

Broderick Jones might be awful.

He is certainly not playing well

Bad footwork

Lunging for blocks

Missing badly

[stillcajun]

why leave the pocket??? You had a good pocket!

[stillthere]

So every week 1 WR is going to have a game against us no matter who we are playing.

[Kodiak.]

Broderick Jones might be awful.

That's more alarming than almost anything else.

Or maybe it's just Meyer's fucked up teachings Hopefully that's it.

[Texas Black & Gold]

I'm not that bothered by the shotgun.

I'm more bothered that KP did not throw it away.

[StillerInCT]

He's been a deer in headlights all game

[tbsteel]

Welp, peace guys.

[K_C_]

why leave the pocket??? You had a good pocket!

Probably because his best plays have been outside the pocket and that pocket was collapsing due to Broderick Jones being awful.

[Kodiak.]

Folks, we aren't remotely competitive on the offensive creativity front.

Stroud isn't even playing very well. Masterclass from their OC. Holy shit this is a schooling.

[gpclay]

Damn. RIP Tim Wakefield. Former Sox and Pirates player.

That knuckleball was fucking unhittable for quite a while, early in his PIttsburgh career.

R.I.P.

Damn I just heard he had cancer yesterday. So sad. I was a huge Pirates fan back then when they actually had a real MLB team.

^^^^^^^^
This x 1000. Didn’t Wakefield go like 11-1 his first year with the Buccos (1991? 1992?)

Very true. It’ll be nice to see Matt Canada’s offense unleashed when Kenny is gone

[Pabst]

It was 4th down

[Stosh-67]

Of course we were not prepared to call a play on 4th and 1.
I understand this is a rare down and distance situation for an NFL game.
Of course we burn another senseless time out.
We will not need that in the 4th.
Of course we are in shotgun on 4th and one.
31 other teams under center?

Staff is a mess... at best

[StillerInCT]

What's Ben up to these days?

[LakecrestSteeler]

Looks like a high ankle sprain for Pickett if I had to guess.

[Steel Bingo]

I'm not that bothered by the shotgun.

I'm more bothered that KP did not throw it away.

He may have been looking to break out the backdoor and gain the yard himself.

I didn't mind the formation either.

[langer]

Just sitting here about three plays behind you guys wondering if Bill Hillgrove is going to eventually figure out who we're actually playing today.

Wolfley makes everything sound so stupid.

[stillcajun]

Not on that one bro. All Pickett had to do was step up. He literally ran toward the guy and then he was like surprised the guys was there.

[drmalba]

I'm not that bothered by the shotgun.

I'm more bothered that KP did not throw it away.

I'm extremely bothered by a shotgun on 4th and 1. Our OC is a certified idiot. And he might have just killed our starting QB with that idiocy.

[K_C_]

What's Ben up to these days?

Drinking craft beer and putting on weight.

[the-other-burg]

I'm not that bothered by the shotgun.

I'm more bothered that KP did not throw it away.

I was bothered by the Shotgun. You have a young QB whose have a shaky game and you takeaway the threar of the run on 4th and one? And your primary target is downfield?

[Kodiak.]

I'm not that bothered by the shotgun.

I'm more bothered that KP did not throw it away.

It's 4th and 1. He has to try to make a play. Where's Pickens for a jump-ball bailout on that play?

Not that Kenny is going through his progressions, but I'm not sure Canada's offense actually has 2nd and 3rd options.

[Texas Black & Gold]

I'm not that bothered by the shotgun.

I'm more bothered that KP did not throw it away.

It was 4th down

I understand that.
But throw it away is better than a sack.
Even if it is stupidly intercepted

[stillthere]

Roberts looked like he was on the Houston D on that play.

[Steel City Fan]

I'm not that bothered by the shotgun.

I'm more bothered that KP did not throw it away.

Either way it’s a turnover on downs. You’re ok with him throwing it away and turning it over on downs? Maybe it was a shit play call and we could’ve actually did a qb sneak or something tricky like that.

I think Pickett gets the first down if it's a sneak on that play.

[Kodiak.]

Looked like MCL on replay, to me

[RemoAZ]

Well the one good thing if Pickett is out is my Sundays will be free. Only reason to tune in right now is to see if Pickett develops. This team is barely watchable until at a minimum we have a new OC. Not watching Trubisky/Rudolf running this shit.

I understand that.

No dude, you don't throw it away on 4th down.

Ever.

Especially down 10 late in the 3rd quarter.
