GO!

 

[travdogg]

This feels like a defensive slog to me. 38 almost feels like too high an over/under, and that's really low.

There's honestly nobody from either team I'd be excited about starting.

I'll say the Jets eke out a win, and we already get a week of Tomlin/Rodgers questions.

 

[rockaction]

I don’t have to watch this, do I? These are the kinds of sporting events dictators in Eastern Europe/Asia make you watch on color televisions that never quite look right.

 

[cdclopper]

Ppl are going to be surprised by the Steelers offense this year, especially the posters before this comment. The Steelers win by a lot here, I'm calling it. And DK Metcalf beats up Sauce Gardner celebrating his 3rd TD.

 

[FarFromHome]

Just now realizing Rodgers opens up with Jets and Fields opens up with Steelers. Kinda cool. Steelers are just a better team and know exactly who Fields is. This one gonna be ugly

Steelers 31
Jets 10

 

[The Longtime Lurker]

Looking forward to this one. Rodgers gets one more chance with a real team and I'm excited to see if there's anything left in the tank. Pulling a little bit for the Steelers this year.

 

[Chemical X]

jets have no home field advantage and are at a talent disadvantage.

pitt 23 - ny jest 13

 

[pecorino]

12-10, ugly game. The better defense wins it for the Steelers. Under is a lock.

Ah...hasn't Sauce had his number the last couple of years?

The Steelers are going to break the over by themselves.

DK Metcalf caught one ball in the fantasy championship against Sauce three years ago. I don’t know about since, but I traded DK before last year because of his clear limitations. I honestly don’t think he’s a very technically sound receiver. But Sauce was also better back then.

The Steelers still win this game fairly easily if a little more methodically than some of the predictions here suggest.

I think it will be a stark picture of how bad the Jets’ offense is and we will see hints of a paper tiger Jets defense in the second half.

 

[Proteus]

Breece gashing away. Looking angry with something to prove.

Edit: then pulled for Allen who gets stacked at the line

 

[cdclopper]

This is how bad Justin Fields is at passing

 

[timschochet]

What a terrible 3rd and 11 call.

 

[irish eyes]

Already looking exactly like last year for the Steelers, gashed by the run horrible OLine

 

[irish eyes]

Metcalf looks enormous out there. That is one big dude.

 

[Cookiemonster]

Converting on 3rd and long is something the Steelers haven’t been able to do for years.

 

[timschochet]

Gainwell getting lots of touches early.

 

[timschochet]

Great first drive for Rodgers

 

[irish eyes]

Wow, that was impressive after the opening play sack.

 

[JoeSteeler]

Nice having a High-IQ QB that can read defenses.

 

[The Longtime Lurker]

That's a little taste of the old Rodgers

 

[JoeSteeler]

I don’t get why they aren't double-teaming Wilson.

 

[crushedspirit]

Slay got torched bad

 

[renesauz]

Slay can't cover someone like that, he's all but cooked

 

[Hot Sauce Guy]

But I was told Fields couldn’t throw the ball to Wilson.



Also

 

[identikit]

Going for 2

Oy

 

[Zow]

Both Fields and Rodgers looking good early.

 

[Desert_Power]

Fascinating game

 

[JoeSteeler]

Metcalf, damn.

 

[crushedspirit]

Best usage of DK is to hit him early and let him run.

 

[irish eyes]

Boswell is freakin money.

 

[JoeSteeler]

Bo$well 56 yd FG

 

[crushedspirit]

This D lol

 

[irish eyes]

Steelers defense stinks.

 

[Steeler]

Steelers high-priced defense is already in playoff form!

 

[Buckna]

Breece looked superfast on that screen.

And of course Allen gets checked in two plays later and gets the TD

 

[Cookiemonster]

Steelers “top 5” defense, huh?

 

[crushedspirit]

Steelers “top 5” defense, huh?

Consistent top 5 money spent on D yes

 

[irish eyes]

Why on earth is the slowest player on the team returning kicks. Kaleb looks like he runs in quicksand.

I think he's actually slower than Najee

 

[Schmeabs]

Lot more of Gainwell than I expected

 

[Hot Sauce Guy]

Fears about RBBC well founded. Allen was the bargain it seems.

 

[crushedspirit]

Lot more of Gainwell than I expected

All were warned that would happen. He was a standout in camp for all RBs

 

[irish eyes]

Shocked Steelers couldn't get a 3rd down stop. Going to be a looooong year.

 

[timschochet]

Jonnu Smith may be a steal at TE. Getting a lot of touches

 

[Cookiemonster]

I didn’t predict more points than this for the entire game.

 

[crushedspirit]

Offense looks good aside from some oline issues, but that D is looking old out there.

 

[timschochet]

Also wondering if Calvin Austin would be a good pickup.

 

[rockaction]

You had to love the "Jonnu will be useless" talk. This is peak Arthur Smith and you thought he was going to forget his man?

Silly rabbit, Trix are for kids.
