scuba guy Posted December 14, 2020 Share Posted December 14, 2020 (edited) I know it has not been said that much buy the first td was a pick play that knocked your db out of the way and coach even saw it but no flag Edited December 14, 2020 by scuba guy Typo 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RichRiderBills Posted December 14, 2020 Share Posted December 14, 2020 Our team is reminding me of the rise of the 1992 Cowboys. I know we dont have as good a D, but I just have a vibe there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The steelers have been a good team. they have also had the sorriest slate of teams to play that i can remember. That list of qb's is horrid. They are literally drawing backup qb's almost on a weekly basis. You can pretend thats not a huge factor, but you would be wrong. Yep, the opponents strengths/weaknesses play a huge factor in every team's wins/losses. But okay, you win. This victory by the Bills was nothing to be proud of. They beat an overrated and inferior team. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sure they could have thrown it, maybe moved the chains and maybe had some incompletes that stopped the clock... But running it when the opposing team knows you are running it, running out the clock, breaking their will, and pointing them to the loser's locker room, THAT is a mindset of how you want to close a game where you have the late lead. A mindset of deciding to close the door on 4 quarters of football with an exclamation point rather than desperately clinging to an unsure victory by your finger tips. It is what good teams can do when they start having confidence and believe they belong in that conversation with the best in the league. That was a mental turning point last night I hope they can keep building upon. Enjoy the victory Monday Bills, then back to work with what got you there - humble and hungry. 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think that really pissed them off. Love this - love seing the edge from Josh we normally don't see "Let them do all the talking and all the f'ing dancing, we just f'ing work" Kind of surprised the Bills put it out there tbh 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't live and die by the results like I did in my younger years. I just don't discredit a team's victories against teams that they should beat because, you know, any given Sunday. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't see it as anything really to read in to but I could see how their fan base would not be happy to see a couple of their players seeming like in a good mood after a loss. The Ebron thing was weird - the wtf look Josh gave him, didn't seem to me like they were friends or anything. My first impression was that he was just trying to get on camera - very weird choice Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can they pick like that there? He seemed like more than a yard from the LOS. If within a yard, you can pick, right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel bad for them. Personally, I could easily see the Steelers dropping to the 5th or maybe even 6th seed. Neither my mind nor my body are in any shape to do gymnastics of any sort. 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, the Jests are a trainwreck, but if you get to draft and groom Trevor Lawrence I think you take that chance. Becoming relevant in the NFL is all about who you get at QB -- god knows as Bills fans we should all appreciate that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Logic Posted December 14, 2020 Share Posted December 14, 2020 I normally like to go to the opposing team's forum after a win and read what the opposition's fans have to say about things. I could only spend about two minutes on the Steelers forums, though. It was just too sad. I have never seen so much pessimism, fatalism, and trash talking about one's own team -- when they are 11-2. ELEVEN AND TWO! They have a better record than the Bills by one game, and yet if you read the two teams' forums, it's night and day. And I don't just buy the "Steelers have a high standard for success" talk. A lot of the comments I saw from Steelers fans were as harsh about their team as the Jets fans are about THEIR team. It's nuts. I had to leave Steelers-land quicker than I thought I would. Too depressing/baffling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The difference is their QB is 38, playing like he’s older than that, and they see a future like the pats are experiencing now. 11-2 is good but they look too limited to do much in the playoffs. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
