Wilson really isn't that bad. There's a bit of reverse Rosenthal effect (look it up) started by Peyton that makes it easy for coaches to shit on him now. In fact, it's arguable that Wilson '24 was the fourth or fifth best QB the Steelers ever had. Wilson is SOOOOO bad. Payton has an unhealthy disda...

Nice start to a season with no expectations. Defense & goaltending a plus.

I remember last year late November people on this board were not only talking about giving Russ Wilson a 3 year deal, but were saying it should be similar to Baker Mayfield’s $100 million deal with the Bucs.

Funny that both of last years QBs will be on the New York bench this week

Gotta wonder about Herbig's snap count. Also, Roman Wilson is emerging as the clear #2 wide in CA III's absence, having played about 60% of the snaps. Only other oddity, maybe, was Holcomb at about 55% of snaps compared to Peyton Wilson's 44.

Tomlin stays until he's good and ready to leave. Always been that way. Stays that way.

Swiss gets to watch this shit later. Lol

Swiss just finished watching at 4am....stay up half the night for this bullshit.

I didn't even get excited hardly when Muth scored, knowing it was highly likely bungs would still win

Sad that as great as that play was you couldn't enjoy it because you knew they scored too soon Right...I didn't like get excited at all when Muth scored. And as much as the announcers were saying that the Bungs would run it 3 times from the 35, I fuckin knew they would be throwing it. Just finished...

When I'm in Vermont, which is more often than not now, I either watch on my phone on my Sunday ticket app or watch at Roberto's Neapolitan pizza in Barton. Roberto is a Steeler fan, I'm watching Steelers Browns their last week and this guy comes up to me, says, do you know what the patriots are doin...

Supposed to be like all-22 with special highlighting of specific players given the circumstance, etc That sounds very interesting. I may have to look into this. As I mentioned at the top of the game thread, it's become my favorite way to watch ball. A. it's not perfect and B. it's not for everyone....

Hendrickson a longshot to play, Shemar Stewart will return, however. Thursday Night outcomes are weird. Look no further than last week with the Giants. I think the weirdest one of all was Ben-led Steelers going to Cleveland in 2009 and playing perhaps the most lifeless and useless game of the Tomli...

X is saying that Elliott has arrived in cincy and is expected to play tonight

https://x.com/SteelersPRBurt/status/197 ... gr%5Etweet

Any update on his status for tonight?

I was on record as hating this trade. There was a pice about it on first take today. Orlovsky, who I think is one of the best analysts, said while Dallas definitely "won the trade," they need to throw 40 plus times a game and score 40 points. Steelers don't. He said that DK & Pickens would be two of...

I’ve never even heard of Alt Cast.

Interested to see what people think of it. I have too many streaming subscriptions and refuse to pay YouTube TV another dollar.

Supposed to be like all-22 with special highlighting of specific players given the circumstance, etc

Won't be able to watch Steelers live tomorrow night, but will watch the NFL Network Prime Vision Alt Cast starting at 1 am.

Any comments on Alt Cast? Never watched a game like that.

On McaAfee show. I like orlovsky more than most as an analyst. Usually down on Steelers but seems to have had an epiphany. Said "I LOVE the Steelers offense." Cited several things. They know who and what they are. They're efficient: No 7 step drops with Rodgers/ Either quick passes or DK on single c...

Don't have the link but some points of interest: Offense-59 snaps -Friermuth is a one-third time player with 21 snaps, compared with 47 & 41 for Washington & smith...heyward had 6 -going 1 wide a lot....Scotty miller had 26 snaps, Roman Wilson 15, skowrenuk 10 Defense -82 snaps -Herbig, watt & highs...

I can maybe understand not wanting to risk, since it was 4th & 1, not wanting to give the ball back to Denver with an opportunity for them to add points. I believe the jets still had a timeout, so at least snap it with 10 seconds left, throw into FG range. That fails, best Denver can do is a Hail Ma...

A lot of grief about franklins payout while Penn state is closing branch campuses for financial reasons. Cant argue with that, but begs the question of why Franklin rated that kind of contract to begin with.

Rodgers described the field, while answering a somewhat unrelated question as "borderline unplayable."

Imagine paying someone $40 million to not coach your team after he wins 70% of his games…. :lol: :lol: :lol: Good news: it’s only the 2nd or 3rd most ridiculous decision that PSU has made regarding its football program…. You can't bring everyone back, get aggressive in the portal, and then lose to ...

I was at that game. I was 21 years old and drove my 30 year old brother and 4 of his friends to Cleveland and back in my clunker lime green Plymouth in exchange for their extra ticket/

Steelers lose 18-16; I drive five 30 year old drunks back to Pittsburgh!!

Great 3rd again...Jarry comes up big. Both so unlike last year!!

That said, how dafuq with 14 seconds left, pens on the power play, faceoff in the offensive end, do Pens end up giving up scoring chance in the final second. And...pens won the face off!!

Fun game to watch if one enjoys defensive games like this. Kept waiting for the Pens 3rd period collapse and it never happened. Pens put the clamps on the Rangers.

I am today placing a 50.00 bet on them to win division. They are still + odds to win division. On Sunday night Oct 19th AFC North standings will be Steelers 5-1 Browns 2-5 Bengals 2-5 Ravens 1-5 You choke that away then I don't know what to say. Can I take some side action? $10 via venmo says the S...

31-3

24-3....31 seconds to half

I find the parallels between James Franklin and Mike Tomlin remarkable. Here is Todd McShay, struggling to find the words to describe the PSU dilemma: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=AVsljh7CwVE If I didn’t know any better, I’d swear he was talking about Tomlin, especially the comments about Franklin...

How Fraud Franklin has Tomlin-esque job security is beyond my limited comprehension skills Big Game James at Penn State: • 1-15 vs. top 5 opponents • 4-21 vs. top 10 opponents • 15-30 vs. top 25 opponents • 4-17 vs. Michigan and Ohio State Meanwhile super fun Penn State transfer qb Beau Pribula has...

I mean mostly that the other team was out of it but also that the Steelers weren't fooling anybody that they were Super Bowl contenders when they needed to win their last 4 or whatever to make the postseason.

Like in 2005?? Lol
