Nah, it was for more than that. They gave WRs too much cushion. Plus our DL and OL got dominated and pushed around. It was so bad our guys looked like we were slipping and wore wrong cleats. Playing on skates.

IMO this is why they exempt vet players from waivers during early season. Bad system.

Didn't seem it in that playoff game though.

I think most folks thought going into the Steelers game any win , ugly or not, would be solid....the Steelers were not that bad, had matchup problems tailor made to beat us, and we were incredibly inconsistent and beat up....and playing in a house of horrors. Somehow that narrative changed. Folks and talking head fans now think we had a flukie gimmicky win against a terrible team that had no chance. I think that's wrong, but I also think the same narrative that the Bengals are back baby and that the Ravens are good are also wrong. I think we are going to roll over the Bengals come Sunday even without Bosa. Frankly, they beat a lost Ravens team that looks like they are already planning January holidays. Lamar was God awful. Burrow looked average. Lots of the short passes w poor coverage by Baltimore. Sure, the deep stuff to chase is there. But they kept taking care of sloppy Ravens goofs and lazy play. No one looked like they wanted to win near the end.

I think the team was really high on slay and they were really keen on the fact he was playing out of position or being asked to do things he wasn't necessarily great at. I think they might think he's an exceptional scheme fit.

The whole setup looked odd like he was set up too straight on

Terrible tackling on g men

Yes, saw him out there.

Good job boys

Not sure in what universe that isn't a late hit. Totally inconsistent.

I'd love if we would just entertain runs on 3rd and long, especially past mid field. Maybe you break one, maybe you get 5 yards and have an interesting 4th down call

I don't see that change from Joe. Still very sensible. He's always been ultra low on picking Bills or big wins. Guess he wants to maintain cred in that locked on group. Does not want to seem like a homer.

A lot of talking heads saying this is must win for Pittsburgh... I'm not so sure. They have the four spot right now. Baltimore is going to lose more games too. I don't really see it as oh so urgent for Pittsburgh, especially how crappy Baltimore looks.

Alec is nails . He's tough as hell and we will be fine. As much as I loved Davis's runback, he hasn't been dynamic as a receiver or as a runner. I think this off-season we really need to upgrade the rb2. Johnson has been fine and gotten back into form. He's a good Rb in the committee.

Was 27 first down to 7
