Josh threw it away, I bet there was no separation. A replay would be useful.

solid tackle by Tremaine on 2nd down

Edmunds charged and knocked by RB

Gunner said "Is it indicative maybe of him not quite being the "all ball" type personality we expect from NFL Head Coaches?" Oh yes, this is the only thing I can get. But...what about cheating you wife in your own restaurant? Where everybody know about you? Seriously?

Hmmm I really don't see anything here... Maybe I'm just Italian and there is a huge cultural bias, I don't know. I see just a man drinking a take photos with fans.

Iron Maiden released an album in 2021. Judas Priest too. Perfect duo for the superbowl.

I agree, Knox pushed to get separation. Receivers get away with OPI more often than not.

Thing is that most calls can be easily reversed by watching on replays. But when challenging the PI was a thing, the refs simply refused to overturn the calls.

Hmmm no, I agree on the spot foul. I don't agree that when the ball is contented between the receiver and the DB, a catch is called. It shouldn't be an interception either. It should be called an incomplete pass.

In my opinion we are in a time when DB are very penalized by DPI, in order to get back to a fair game: - Don't allow the WR/TE to push (extending the arms) to get separation at the top of the route, call OPI damn it! [in the rules but rarely called] - Allow the DB to play through the receiver if DB is playing the ball. Of course DB cannot HIT before the ball arrives, but some contact (basketball style) must be allowed. This will allow DB to defend taller and heavier TEs on curl routes. [update the rules] - Allow the DB to defend his position [in the rules, but sometimes DPI is called when contact occurs] - Don't call DPI if offender initiates contact and DB is not playing the ball (the infamous call on Levi in Steelers game) [I think it is in the rules, but most of the times it goes the other way] - Allow the DB to guard the offender without playing the ball and without initiating contact [it's in the rules, but sometimes DPI is called] - Don't call DPI if ball cannot be received [it's in the rules, but very rarely applied] - Allow hand-checking and hand-fighting, call DPI only if DB grab the jersey and/or lock the arm, and/or block the receiver (one block is allowed no more than 5 yards downfield) [I think rules are not clear] - LB are allowed to hit the receveivers less than 5 yds downfield (usually on crossing patterns) ? Time ago was a big part of the game. I want to see this again.

Ok he covered the curl route.

Poyer fired up on sidelines after Mitch run, good sign.

any news on poyer?

Edmunds could make the tackle for loss, but grabbed air instead.

Edmunds was in perfect position to force the 4th. Matt was not.

Everybody played very well except Edmunds

Plus Milano made a grat play on 4th down

No, Milano was out in space.

Edmunds giving up the first

I hope he will play that bad throughout the game

The debate is dominated by extremes because Tremaine is a former first round pick and a big investiment by the organization. If Tremaine was a third round pick nobody would complain.

The point with Edmunds is its "averageness" in the running game. Most of the time is doing is job, ok, but he very rarely makes a great play. For example, he may shoot his gap and meet the pulling guard closing the gap of his responsibility, but he won't BEAT the pulling guard and make the tackle in the backfield. When the OL reaches the LB level he never make a great play, most of the times he is carried downfield by olinemen thus giving the RB a good amount of yardage. In the passing game is very good, but pedestrian, and he has not good hands to make plays on the ball.

Props to the Steelers defense, they were tough to the challenge against our modern passing attack. Nevertheless without 2 big phantom calls, the INT by Tre and the PI against Levi, the Bills (defense) wins the game easily. That's my take.

Tampa played 2 deep high safeties nearly the whole game giving them the opportunity to double Hill on every single play. They did not payed the price vs the running game because, guess what, unlike us, they have a great MLB. That's my take on the game.

Edmunds bad Oliver good
