Jags @ Steelers Game Thread

Steeler defense had no pass rush. Bortles has all day

Two great things about the final score:

1. The Pittsburgh post game moan fest should make for fantastic viewing;
2. Now that the game is over, we don't have to listen to Dan "it's possible I'm doing this job with my eyes closed" Fouts any more. My God, that man is tough on the ears...

Steelers crash and burn spectacularly.

So does their forum. It's down right now.

Well, giving up 42 isn't awesome...

Horrible indeed. No other way to describe it.

Mike Tomlin is an absolute embarrassment of a coach. He totally overlooked the Jags and let his players do the same. He deserves the credit for that loss.

What a great weekend of football so far. Yes Patriots, No Falcons, No Steelers. The only downside is that there's nobody left standing who I'd actively root against!

I can always root against the eagles. Their fans are trash.

Beers and wings for everyone who can stomach it.

I know that some will use this game as prove that Jax's defense is overrated, but I don't think this way...

They were up by 2 TDs most of the game, playing very vanilla for a good deal of the 2nd half. Their lack of discipline also contribuited for it, IMO.

Next week is gonna be a battle. Luckily, we have the GOAT with us

They are overrated
This game also wasn’t as bad as it looked because Pitt played 4 down offense more than half the game.
Still plays are out there to be made.

I'm just happy to formally offer to the Jags a spot at the New England Patriots Invitational.

He was too busy focusing on the Patriots game next week.

I'm just happy to formally offer to the Jags an invitation to the New England Patriots Invitational.

When the season starts the goal is for the Pats to be healthy by the AFC championship game. Looking pretty good.

Update: I'm eating some saltines and feel better.

What happened?

Steeler Fury is a must read. 202 pages.

@AndyJohnson @reamer I don't agree with you guys. Yeah, they've had pretty awful showings, today included, but I don't think i can call a D with that much talent overrated.

Biggest thing is taking care of the ball. Their offense definetily can't keep up with and they won't score 45 points, but if I had to bet, I don't think we'll get to 30 points, for example. Just my opinion

SteelerFury is on fire right now:

They Steelers should of never had to play Jacksonville. Blame the refs for the Patriots getting #1 seed.

They got every call all season long. If any of them goes back on them- they probably would of played wildcard weekend.

 

[A Defiant Goose]

Jacksonville has a great defense. Pittsburgh made some insane TD catches. It happens
