Two Borregales field goals will be enough to win next Sunday. Nico Collins won’t be playing and Stroud looks lost on 8 days rest. He’ll have 6 days to get ready for a D that (according to what Spillane relayed from several Chargers players after the game) completely flummoxed Justin Herbert with disguises. Stroud will be crying uncontrollably by the third quarter.

.
Don't see that.
Stroud and Houston have moved the ball all night.
Stroud's mistakes are the only thing keeping Pitt in this game.
 
You’re overestimating Houston’s offense by 3 points.
The problem is that it only takes one or two mistakes from the defense and Houston immediately has the upper hand.
 
He bounced his head against the ground and had to be carted into the locker room with a towel over his head. He won’t play next week.
Why won’t Nico play, but Gonzo might?
 
As much as Pickens is a ticking time bomb, why trade him just to trade and pay another WR when you are signing a 41 year old QB? The Steelers supporting cast is very pedestrian. Just take the 3rd round pick when he leaves in FA. They are now stuck with Metcalf when Rodgers retires after this game.

Never question the Khan artist! he’s building a powerhouse in Pittsburgh , dont believe me ? just ask my whatsapp group with mostly Steeler fans.
 
Watch and learn
If your Bildos get past Denver, which I think they will, Buffalo will get destroyed in Foxboro.
All our defensive starters are back. You won't slip off the hook this time.
You'll get smoked

I’ll be rooting for you next week.

I don’t want anything to do with Houston.
 
Houston will be the best defense Maye has ever faced in his life. He has literally never seen what he is about to see next week.

The Pats need to play it conservative.

Actually the Chargers have a better pass defense than the Texans. Their window Texans have a better overall defense.
 
Why won’t Nico play, but Gonzo might?
Gonzo didn't get carted off and said he was fine in the locker room. Still not proof he plays but Collins' head slammed the turf hard. I knew it right away.
 
If we don't turn the ball over next week and especially let their defense score we are winning something like 20 to 13
 
Pretty wild. If they hold on, us being without Gonzo and them without Nico will pretty much cancel out.

Gonzalez has a far better chance of playing next week. Gonzalez was sitting on the bench when they forced him to go into the concussion protocol while Collins was carted off. Gonzalez said he was fine after the game.
 
Yeah they are. And McD is great at figuring things out. Hadn't seen them in a playoff game before.
He has never had a QB not named Tom Brady go against a defense like this. Brady alone was like a second OC. Maye is very good. But he's not at that level.

McDaniels needs to come up with a gameplan for the ages.
 
I’ll be rooting for you next week.

I don’t want anything to do with Houston.
LMAO. No you want nothing to do with the Patriots. Just wait and see. Your window wasn't open very long, you did nothing with it and now it's about to be slammed shut for the next 15 years.

Not even close.

Much rather face the Pats than Houston.
 
So let's assume we play the Texans. There is no denying that their pass rush is ferocious and they often do it with just 4 guys. That is why they can design some different looks at the back end. In order for our o-line to not get overwhelmed, we need an extra blocker and go with the short passing game. A game like this is when we need Tonga back. He can play the role of the fullback !!
I hope he is back. Pity that Hollins will be out another game at minimum. Haven't heard about him, if the Pats make it to the AFCC will Hollins be back ??
 
Houston will be the best defense Maye has ever faced in his life. He has literally never seen what he is about to see next week.

Go away. Your time would be better spent polishing bildos to toss at your TV next weekend. Your Prairie Cows will need all the help they can get.
