You have to factor in how terrible the offense is. They had no shot to pick up the 4th down either.Down 16 and he kicks a fg,![]()
This.How many people did NOT know the Steelers were going to run up the middle on 3rd and short![]()
Great effort from him there. Earl Campbell wouldn’t have picked up the first The ol was brutalWhy in God’s name was Warren in on that play?
Thankfully, the game is not available in my area so I can't watch it. But kicking a FG is almost certainly the right play. It's early in the second half so there is plenty of time. The prospect of two TDs plus two 2-point conversions is highly improbable plus that only gets you tied anyway. Shooting for 17-16 is a good strategy.Down 16 and he kicks a fg,![]()
It's quite comicalShotgun on 4th and 1? Fire everyone!
Yeah, an interception down the field is a good result compared to a sackYou can’t take that sack there. Toss it up
Its not the only option, it is somehow what Canada thought was smartIdiot. If you're only option is shotgun, you kick the FG
Can they change Teryl Austin while they are at itAnd people say you can't change coordinator in the middle of the season. Why?? How much worse could it be.
Because they surrendered.. The backup QB is in, the team has quit, Pickens is ready for a melt down.Why are they punting down by 17 with 10 minutes left in the game? I realize they probably won't make it, lol, but punting is surrendering the game.
This isn’t the first time Tomlin has surrendered and it won’t be the last.Why are they punting down by 17 with 10 minutes left in the game? I realize they probably won't make it, lol, but punting is surrendering the game.
Still plenty of time to salvage Tomlin's streak, but he has to get rid of this dude.And people say you can't change coordinator in the middle of the season. Why?? How much worse could it be.
They won't change a damn thing. Coaches are Teflon & know nothing will happen. This franchise is becoming a jokeWell if this game doesn’t push change, nothing will. Embarrassing.
Nothing is going to change my man.. This is the Steelers we are talking about.Well if this game doesn’t push change, nothing will. Embarrassing.
It is important context that Houston is bad and playing without their whole line. I don't remember a worse Steelers performance, and I remember the 1989 opener.
You aren't getting anything.. Tomlin will say the same BS and the media won't ask him tough questions..The Steelers are a stagnant organization at this point. I agree that they aren’t changing anything. But we will get some good sound bites tomorrow.
Yep, he will spew out his ridiculous tomlinisms and do same thing next weekThe Steelers are a stagnant organization at this point. I agree that they aren’t changing anything. But we will get some good sound bites tomorrow.
Agreed. Houston is secretly kind of good. IMO, they could very well win their division.It is important context that Houston is bad and playing without their whole line. I don't remember a worse Steelers performance, and I remember the 1989 opener.
Houston isn't bad. Beat JAX handedly away last week with similar injuries.
Chandler Jones looks pretty bad now….Over the last 5 years, name a worst signing then Patrick Peterson and his big mouth..
Antonio Brown. Especially since you can apply that to Oakland, New England, AND Tampa Bay.Chandler Jones looks pretty bad now….Over the last 5 years, name a worst signing then Patrick Peterson and his big mouth..
Oh come on..As a Pittsburgher, and Steeler fan, I think we might be on the verge of the worst season in decades, there is a real chance they win 3 games this year, cause nothing is going to change, Canada is not getting fired, there is no minor leagues to bring young players up from. Tomlin is set in his ways, and it might ruin his career here. I'd be afraid if they got a top 3 pick, they wont take Caleb or Marvin or Maye, they'd take a center or safety.
