Game week thread - Bills at Steelers

[gtw3]

All of the angst that we are feeling on TBD, the Steelers fans feel it on theirs.

 

They're in a division that they had a stranglehold on early.  Joe B missed most of the year, Jackson missed time.  Now look at where the Steelers are.  There is a large contingent of their fans that have wanted their HC gone for years.  They're currently using the oldest bridge QB in history with no clear cut future laid out yet.  They haven't won a playoff game in years and yet they are "the epitome of a stable and successful NFL organization"   They are losing their minds that they have DK but don't pass the ball downfield to him.  And all of those great D linemen, haven't really had great seasons (to their standards) so far to this point.  Which is why they are saying that us being on our backup linemen wont be an issue.

 

All teams, especially in the AFC, have warts.  We have ours, the Steelers definitely have theirs.

 

I am mostly concerned about the state of the playing field.  I read it is going to be an absolute mess.

Beane needs to go full Rams mode starting next year.  Screw the picks just bring in studs.  I’m sick of the over valuing picks that he can’t even get right

Hopefully he’s not here next year. Get a GM that actually knows what it means to surround your franchise QB with superbowl talent in the draft and free agency

Who is your other tackle in this scenario? 

Lundt has to be the RT for this game.

Remember when the Bengals were down 3 offensive linemen and were going to play in bad conditions?

If the field conditions are poor as some suggest they will be, that would favor us in my eyes because it should slow down the pass rush and allow Josh to have more time to operate

Is it strange to anyone that the NFL allows the Steelers to have Pitt play the day before games are played on a grass field in late November 🤷🏻‍♂️

… nope, can’t recall any game like that!

Sounds like this is a game, I'll wait to watch afterwards to see if they win or not. I'm not (and shouldn't for my mental health) sit through another Houston Texans type cluster...

Going to be a tough watch. Don’t think the Steelers are a monster given Watt, Highsmith and Herbig are not playing lights out nor are they playing on the Anderson/Hunter level but without both starting offensive tackles, it might be an extremely tough day. 
 

Not saying we don’t have a chance but this is going to be a game they realistically have to execute flawlessly on offense to walk away with a win @ Heinz field. 
 

This, to me, is going to showcase whether or not Brady can cut the mustard or should be gone next year. A real litmus test for how he’s able to scheme.
