It's easy, and only takes a few moments.They have seemingly good YPC but just cannot seem to consistently convert 3rd and short.Coaches have a big responsibility in this loss. We don’t have the receivers to stretch the field this year so it leaves a safety to double Gronk. Last year Cooks took that safety with him down the field and opened things up underneath.
The O this year has worked best when we run the ball and set up play action. Sony Michel avg 4.5 yds but only had 13 carries. Burkhead avg 6 yds but only 4 carries. That’s on Bill and Josh. Should have been runs to bring the safeties up and then get more 1 on 1 coverage for Brady to take advantage of. Instead we went pass happy, let them bring their rush, and have Gronk and others face double coverage.
Watch out the trap game!!!! Buffalo is feisty....
So to be clear, youre agreeing that Brady was really really really bad last week when he had 358 yards and 3 TDs? Ok cool, then you're an idiot too

We can still make it to the SB as the #3 seed if it comes to that.
I don't use that word and don't like when someone uses that word when talking to me. Please be respectful.
Brady isn’t as good as he was last year. But he is far from the actual problem.
Its ridiculous all the people on this board blaming Tom for the offensive struggles when the o-line & skill players on offense are at this point average at best. Simply take a minute and compare the Steelers offensive roster to ours and except QB which roster would you rather have? Poor team building and GM personnel decisions is why we are here...
On offense main issues are the penalties. How many drives were killed today because of these?
WC at home and will get blown out by Baltimore AGAIN
Yup, they were. When Michel started ripping some big runs on the 1st half drive that ended on the Brown holding call I was thinking the runs working, we gotta come back to it next drive and use play action off it. We didn’t come back to it until the 4th qtr. No idea why.They were impatient
Please tell me you that you think the defense played well. The last drive was a perfect example....ball deep in Pitt territory needing a 3 and out and what happens, Pitt comes down the field and scores a fg…..If you think the defense played well, I can't help you.
Did the offense play well, no, not at all and I said that in my post, but do not try and defend this defense, just don't.
