Patriots vs. Sh*tsburgh Squeelers Game Day thread (LET'S GOOOO!!!!!)

[deroc5050]

I knew the steelers were going to take a shot because they know we have no pass rush. Not worried about a sack or a fumble in the backfield. Anyway we need to play better on both sides of the ball in second half.

 

[PatriotsPimp136]

Not

They've scored 10 points, man. Try to maintain some perspective here.

Nice way to look at it but have they rattled this guy?

 

[VrabelJr]

Omg we're only up by 4 at the half on the road. I'm selling all my jerseys.

This is why McD will never be a great HC in this league and hopefully does not succeed BB when he decides to retire....you have 2 of the best 5 TEs in the league....and u can't find a way to get them involved offensively?! Pathetic

This is what second half adjustments are for. they had 2 long TD drives

 

[Satchboogie3]

What the hell was the gameplan today? 2 best TEs aren't involved whatsoever. the defense isn't keying on Bell, nor can they get a pass rush going with 3 or 4 guys.

3 drives stalled due to 2 3rd down drops and a fumble. They aren't having any problem moving the chains otherwise, just stupid mistakes are killing drives. They should have 28pts on the board

Pittsburgh defense has played well.Unlike the old lebeau defenses, they are making the pats drive the length of the field with short passes and runs taking the TEs out of the game. If it were not for the brady scrambles, we wouldnt have scored 14 pts. They are forcing us in too many 3rd downs and things like drops happen more if there are more such plays.

Run game is doing well but we didn't take advantage of its success with play action in the second quarter

 

[Bruins29]

Well maybe if this was a playoff game or SuperBowl.

This is against a Pittsburgh team with the 2nd best QB in the league not playing, their 2nd best WR out, and several key guys on defense.

Pitt is at Home and we are a 2nd half team and always have been. You do get that right?

 

[saspack]

The defense is our weakness. Cannot put any pressure on QB. Cannot stop the run. This team will have big problem in playoff.

Really need to come out strong in the second half otherwise they will lose this game. Pittsburgh should feel good about themselves.

 

[fightingirish595]

if they would throw the ****ing ball to the tight ends brady would have 250 yards

Wjat makes you think they are open

When a defense throws the kitchen sink at limiting your TEs, you need to be able to make them pay elsewhere. Edelman and Blount have stepped up pretty well, but Mitchell, Bolden and White (aside from that one play) aren't stepping up like they need to.

It's an execution problem, not a playcalling problem. And let's not lose sight of the fact we're complaining about an offense that's on pace to score 28 points.

 

[RobertWeathers]

Prediction.

Pats come out with fire in the 2nd half.

Drive for 7 and take control of the game.

Adjustments will be made. No need to panic.

 

[stcjones]

Our pass rush is HORRIBLE. Long is good, but old. Sheard is a disappointment. I never see interior rush from our DTs

But seriously...,WHEN has our defense EVER had a great pass rush in the BB era since 2004?!...... we really haven't had one....pats D has been in that bend don't break since Crennel left.....

Do you guys understand what happens when you crank up the pass rush?

 

[Marqui]

Boy they really need to revamp their edge rushing unit next year. They have the worst pass rush in the league.

 

[luuked]

It will be a glorious day for humanity when some of the dense people here realize that the key priority is to stop LeVeon Bell (and the Steelers running game) and then let Landry Jones beat them with his arm.

Spoiler warning.. unless Jones has the game of his life -- which so far he didnt have -- this will work and we will walk away with a win because as evidenced multiple times tonight already he can't sustain his accuracy over the entire game.

So sit back and relax because there is no reason to panic as long as we dont commit even more turnovers or suffer some injuries.

 

[Joey007]

This defense is going to prevent us from getting a ring this year. They're so ****ing afraid of getting beat deep that they play 20 yards back and give up dinks and dunks and let teams play them all the way down the field. They're garbage.

It's all about the guys up front.

You try covering when your line is letting the opposing QB have enough time to read a book, have some tea, and even do his taxes in the pocket.

 

[supafly]

Poor kid behind me just got leveled with a full beer thrown at him for wearing his jersey. These people are animals.

 

[Bruins29]

And it works so I wish the "push rush sucks" guys would just shut up. Great pass rush sacrifices other things.

 

[JayNM]

yes. Sacks

Oh sorry, i think we are in ""prevent"", so Landry ****ing Jones doesnt kill us with his amazing feet.

Give me a break man, our team is awesome, but our defensive line is bad pressuring the QB. It's the pure truth
