Asking for a friend

[Coryea]

How the **** are we still using 2 DLINEMEN against NE?????? NE goes 7 DBs and still puts 3 big bodies up front and Hightower so they don't get man handled.
This is most frustrating part of ******* Tomlin, he sticks with this **** assed scheme, then at halftime says it's not the scheme, WTF???

“The scheme is just fine, we just need to execute better”

Typical Tomlin, never his fault.

 

[Drink IRON City]

The constant is TOMLIN but let's give it a few games before He is ran outA town.

I can't believe the 2DL, which hasn't worked in,.....well............ Forever!


Salute the nation

We just need to make routine plays routinely.

I can't stop chuckling tonight. Cause if I don't chuckle, I'm going to find a P*ts fan somewhere and punch him in the face with a shotgun.

 

[Steelin]

I said it earlier this week 2 lineman does not do it. The dumb *** is sure stubborn on this one.

 

[troymania]

Jesus, they should let the guys who actually played in the preseason games play tonight. They would have probably been better.

 

[wig]

I am literally still chuckling.

I have NEVER seen the Steelers get their ***** handed to them like that.

Here's a question, when is 33-3 NOT that close?

 

[SanDiegoSteeler]

I drank too much....it's all foggy, thankfully.
Also thankful I forgot to hit record.

Is Pittsburgh Dad still around?...

 

[Coryea]

It puts Cam and Tuitt, two of our better defensive players in a situation to fail. They singled Bud, left a TE/RB in to help on Watt or chip, so that left their 3 interior guys to block Cam and Tuitt. You have to win the LOS, you're not going to win the LOS with just 2 DL.

The real question becomes how quickly this team can wipe the stank off after this blow out.

Offense scores 3 points. Who gives a **** what the D is doing?

 

[black and gold apex]

All you need to hear is Tomlin speech we were not ready for prime time. What he hell as he thought about since the schedule came out, he is a big time loser in NE and he come up with that answer. He is an embarrassment to this team when he makes these type of typical statements from him

 

[ZonaBurgh]

It was a team effort, obviously.

The absolute worse part of that game was how badly we missed AB... without him being doubled the rest of the O was not ready to beat coverages

 

[Ironcitysteelers]

Sounds like something Tomlin would say. Because we've actually seen the offense score vs NE before, we've seen this same crap defensive scheme over and over again, guys completely wide open. It's a defensive thread.

We scored 24 2 years ago and 17 last year,

We also held them to 10 last year., so we've seen the D hold them before. When you score 3 ******* points, what your D does is 99.9% irrelevant.

ark speaks the truth

 

[Hoot]

While I understand what Ark is getting at, there was nothing of value from Offense or Defense last night. There is no reason to try to blame one more than the other. The team stunk top to bottom and was one of the worst showings I have ever seen from this team ever. This team has been in a burning tailspin since they got their *** handed to them in the playoffs by Jax.

Held them to 10, one time. Just because the offense sucks, doesn't mean the defense has to suck does it???? The offense was crap too, go start an offensive bash thread. Tomlin sucks all the way around when it comes to game planning, and situational football. Offense and defense.

This thread is about the **** *** 2DL scheme that he tries to use vs NE time and time again and it never works, but he just keeps on trying.

No one is trying to blame one side of the ball more than the other.

I'm blaming Tomlin for trying this piece of garbage defense again and again vs Brady.

It worked last year vs them held them to 10 points

Agree.

Didn't use this defense in Pittsburgh, we sent pressure alot more last season than this season. Watt was not doubled last season, he was last night. Dupree was doing nothing vs a guy making his first start, why not send a blitz at that guy a time or two?

 

[ark steel]

We may have played them differently last year. I have no idea.

In just about every respect, our D looks better, on the paper, than they did last year or the year before.

These guys played in the preseason quite a bit, i think, and have zero excuses for how they played.

However, it became irrelevant, quickly, when our O couldn't do ****.
