He’s got to do better, got to make better choices. Yes and it’s called being overconfident. They thought they were going to come out and do what they wanted and they played sloppy on offense. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It got blocked because someone missed their blocking assignment and the defender came right up the middle. No other punter would have had a different outcome. Someone? It was like everyone hahaha it is comical the punter is being blamed for that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Teams don’t win games when blocked punts are returned for TD’s. That needs to be fixed. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

since79 Posted September 12, 2021 Share Posted September 12, 2021 (edited) Here is an idea. Let’s design a game plan where we never put a tight end on the best pass rusher currently in the league. And while we’re at it empty the backfield 80% of the plays. Holding penalties happen when a player is out manned. Three on the one drive and no correction.

Dude's a beast. he may turn out to be a beast, but being in the backfield and not doing much is not really impactful. We have low standards for our DE's. Basham was not dressed. Great pick Bean.

TheBrownBear Posted September 12, 2021 Share Posted September 12, 2021 7 minutes ago, Ethan in Portland said: Criticism does not equate into hate. Allen didn't play well. He missed a wide open TD by 5 yards with no pressure. That just can't keep happening. Criticism is fine. He didn't play a great game, but there are people in here calling him "horrendous", which is just laughable. This was a tight game between two tough defenses. The 50/50 type of plays/calls all went the Steelers way in the 2nd half and the punt block was the nail in the coffin. Josh's miss of Sanders on a 50 yard throw early in the first half had very little to do with the outcome, as we still managed to build a 10 point lead at the half.
