These pretzels are making me thirsty

I swear to my gummi bears that if the Steelers trade for Sheed because this game showed they need another WR and they think they can compete this year Imma drown in my carbonated water.

is this saying that he (Sheed) would be better on the Steelers or on the Saints?

Oh, I think he's much better off on the Saints. Olave is the guy at WR there, but I don't trust Pittsburgh to have him running over 30 routes (and that ain't a lot, especially if we're talking first-read or meaningful routes), and that just needs to happen for Sheed to score any points. I mean, the Steelers' WRs other than Metcalf saw ONE target total in Week 6. You can say that's because the other guys are no good, and that might be a fair point, but I don't want a receiver I might use to be any part of the Rodgers circus and the Pittsburgh retrograde offensive scheme.

No thank you.

Aaron Rodgers has the worst aDOT of a starter (average throw length in the air) in a long, long time. Why does a guy who

1) doesn't want to throw the ball deep and
2) can no longer throw the ball deep

want Shaheed? That's a waste of both Rashid's talents and is a complete mismatch for the Steelers.

Can’t really argue with any of this.

 

[Hot Sauce Guy]

Just from a practical standpoint, if your name is Perine, wouldn’t you pronounce it per-REEN, and not PEE-rine?

 

[fred_1_15301]

No adjustment at all. Still single coverage on Chase.

 

[irish eyes]

Chase all by himself 1st play, you can't make this up. LOL

 

[greenmountaingoat]

There’s nothing funny about when you’re facing Chase and all the sudden every single play is a throw to him

 

[Hot Sauce Guy]

Did Watt board the plane to Cincinnati or is he home spending some of the contract he should have never received.

I’m facing him in an IDP league where he’s historically destroyed me every time I’ve faced him, and I think he’s doing great.

 

[irish eyes]

Tomlin is a moron. So sick of it.

 

[Chaka]

Apparently the Steelers got Slay & Ramsey specifically to face Chase and Higgins.

Did anyone tell the Steelers that it's not 2021 anymore?

 

[fred_1_15301]

Flacco is staring him down every single play and the Steelers have no answer.

 

[ProstheticRGK]

PEEEEEE-rine. I can’t unhear it now

 

[Hot Sauce Guy]

Brown will be in my lineup henceforth.

 

[Chaka]

Just from a practical standpoint, if your name is Perine, wouldn’t you pronounce it per-REEN, and not PEE-rine?

All I know is; when Al Michaels says it I feel like I should call social services.

 

[travdogg]

My biggest question so far watching this game, is why did the Browns completely abandon the run last week?

 

[Hot Sauce Guy]

PEEEEEE-rine. I can’t unhear it now

Al not only puts the volume emphasis on PEE, he raises his tone several notes to say the PEE part.

 

[travdogg]

This is embarrassing defense.

 

[ProstheticRGK]

Holy Chrysler

 

[HellToupee]

Cripes almighty

 

[OrganizedChaos]

Can Mike Tomlin count to two?? That is how many people should be covering Chase starting from the line every play.

 

[irish eyes]

What a pathetic embarrassing performance, but is anyone really surprised. This is a Tomlin special.

 

[ghostguy123]

As a Higgins owner, I agree they should try and guard Chase.
Does he have like 5 catches this drive? What's the record for one drive??

 

[travdogg]

Can Mike Tomlin count to two?? That is how many people should be covering Chase starting from the line every play.

The funny thing is Higgins has been open this whole time too, he just isn't looking that way. They need to quit playing man.

 

[Uncle Leo]

Someone joked about Chase getting 25 targets. Well, he’s on pace to exceed that.

 

[fred_1_15301]

Joey Porter hurt again? I’m shocked!

 

[irish eyes]

No he really is stupid.

 

[greenmountaingoat]

I can’t tell because of the youthful hairdo but if I didn’t know any better this Michaels guy seems old

 

[irish eyes]

Joey Porter hurt again? I’m shocked!

That's a good thing, he sucks.

Thanks, man. I keep editing because I keep looking at last week and the week before and being all, "please no."

Rodgers threw the ball 22 times in Week 5. God, no. Want no part of this joke/debacle. And I'm a Jets fan who has a really sensitive nose when it comes to the stink of debacles waiting to happen.

 

[OrganizedChaos]

No he really is stupid.

At least do something different. Send one and drop ten into coverage. I don't care but don't keep doing the same thing which is clearly not working.

I think it’s because he’s wearing orange gloves on white-out night. Like, where’s your team spirit, guy.

 

[Hot Sauce Guy]

Watch them not convert now. lol

 

[fred_1_15301]

If the Steelers are going to get blown out (and it’s sure looking like that), can Higgins at least get a little more love?

 

[irish eyes]

Watch them not convert now. lol

They'll convert lol

 

[travdogg]

That's a good thing, he sucks.

Which says a lot about the guy behind him. Echols is even worse.

 

[irish eyes]

Does anyone know how long Flacco has been there? These clowns haven't mentioned it.

 

[Hot Sauce Guy]

Oh wait maybe it was Yoshi wearing the orange gloves.

 

[ShamrockPride]

Perine is one of the all-time backfield leeches. Leaves a trail of RBBC in his wake wherever he goes.

 

[Hot Sauce Guy]

10 points might be insurmountable.

 

[fred_1_15301]

If the Steelers don’t answer here, game over.

 

[travdogg]

Might have run it there on 2nd or 3rd down. Especially as Brown is looking good so far.

 

[Proteus]

I'm picking up Flacco. Stuff just clicks sometimes

 

[irish eyes]

I'm picking up Flacco. Stuff just clicks sometimes

Did you know he's only been there 10 days. I think Al & Kirk missed that point.

 

[travdogg]

I'm picking up Flacco. Stuff just clicks sometimes

No reason he can't be a top-20 QB.

 

[fred_1_15301]

Bright spot for Steelers has been Warren. He looks great tonight.

 

[timschochet]

Steelers really do need to make that trade for WR. That weakness is really exposed tonight.

 

[The Frankman]

Yeah Bengals run D didn't get better during the break, we should see heavy runs of Warren and Gainwell with maybe a PA to the tight end.

 

[travdogg]

Hate that 3rd down all out blitz.

 

[Ministry of Pain]

Bright spot for Steelers has been Warren. He looks great tonight.

113 total yds, 4 catches, he looks great

 

[fred_1_15301]

Throwing a fade to a 300 pound tight end seems prudent.

 

[dickey moe]

That ref reminds me of someone... Hank Hill.
