Patriots Pregame Thread Week 3 discussion: Pitt @ NE

[One-If-By-Sea]

Can someone pipe the broadcast into Tomlin's headset again? I missed his reaction in realtime last time and wanna see it again. Lol

That is funny.

 

[One-If-By-Sea]

What's that even mean?

Remember when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor?

Barmore is in the conversation for best player on the team, and it’s not a long list.

Luckily Maye joined that list yesterday.

Luckily Maye joined that list yesterday.

As many good things as he did yesterday, outrunning Judon to the pylon, I think, impressed me the most. Didn't panic, was totally under control that whole run.

**** the Steelers

I loved when he climbed the pocket on the long Dre pass. Many young QBs panic and to scramble outside right into the rush. It's seems so simple to just step up in the pocket but lots of young and experienced guys struggle with that.

**** the Steelers

Everyone looks like world beaters playing the Jets

The Jete SUCK .......someone has to say it

 

[Brotherblues]

Until they commit to drafting a QB, slightly better than mediocre is kind of an accomplishment for them

Tomlin started losing playoff game after playoff game while Ben was still playing.

After starting his career 5-1 in the playoffs, he's gone 3-10 in playoff games for the last 15 years. Most of that with Roethlisberger, who's a shoe-in for Canton.

And the kicker: During his current 3-10 playoff stretch, the 3 wins have come against QBs Matt Moore, AJ McCarron, and Alex Smith.

 

[Keyser Söze]

I’m not too impressed by the Steelers. This is absolutely a winnable game.

They will regret drafting Derrick Harmon over Jaxson Dart for long time.

Absolutely it is.
We beat them in 2022 with Mac, and 2023 with Zappe.
No reason we can't win this game.
Rodgers is still good in spurts. He had a great game against us last year. Need to hit him early and often.

Didn’t Pitts defense sustain couple injuries? I know Highsmith the talented rusher is out for sure against NE.

They are down a few guys. They are also allowing 28 pts against over their last 10 games, and Watt hasn't had a sack in his last 5. Their D has been a major major problem for awhile.

 

[BTTA]

I've asked Steeler fan friends what they thought of Rodgers. All but one of them hated the signing and don't want him in Pittsburgh. Surprised me.

Sample size?

Tomlin has never beaten the elites or even showed he belonged on the field with them. The only times hes been to the sb he avoided Tom and Peyton.

In the playoffs he never stood a chance against Tom, Peyton, Mahomes, Allen, Rodgers, even Lamar whos kind of a choker himself. Completely out of his league. Defense always got smoked , they haven’t had a good defensive playoff performance since the 3 you mentioned, that was 2015 and 2016.

Yep. I hope they never fire him.

 

[PATSYLICIOUS]

Yep. I hope they never fire him.

As someone who can’t stand the Steelers and their fans, i hope he wins 9+ games every year and stays their coach another 15 years. Its better than them going 2-15.
