Biggest thought from today

If you didn't play the angle that Tepper was a former (partial) owner of the Steelers and Mike Tomlin thinks he's a bumbling retard, and wanted to beat his ass, then you are as big of a loser as this organization.  

Meanwhile, I'll be having a porterhouse, loaded baked potato and all the liquor one can consume on my winnings from knowing the Panthers will always Panthers and find a way to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory.

My biggest (and most surprising) thought from today :

 

Sam played better than I expected him to.

He also had zero turnovers (which has always been an issue for him career-wise). 

He also threw the ball away instead of forcing it which was also an issue of his.

 

All in all, he played a very steady game.

Unfortunately he also showed that he lacked Game-Awareness like knowing when to run and when not to.

 

Hopefully he fooled some GM out there into thinking he'd make a good backup for his team...

...in the meantime, I would love to see Corral get a LEGIT shot next season.

Run the ball

Stop the run

Win in the trenches on both sides

Get off the field on 3rd down

Time of possession

We accomplished zero of these which is a pretty solid formula to win in the NFL. We were outcoached and both our offensive and defensive gameplans were JV-level of coaching. It felt like a Ron Rivera kinda L for sure.

My biggest take away from today is that we need more beef up front on both sides of the ball. And not only big but nasty as well.

We also very much need a serious upgrade in coaches and most likely a new GM as well, at least I'm on board for it. Let's start there and work our way down the list, it's a very long list.

I was somewhat surprised because I thought our offensive line was better than it showed Sunday after seeing how they got pushed around and beat up pretty bad.

They are much better than last years group and that's not debatable.  They just went up against a better defense, at least game plan wise. They held up better than I expected for most of the game. 

Pittsburgh is a tough team to out muscle when their back is against the wall. Tomlin needed this win just as badly if not more than Wilks.

There was no was they were going to let the Panthers run on them. You can bet your ass he made sure of that. He dared us to beat them with  Ben McAdoo calling pass plays for Sam Darnold.

      PFF raves about our draft. The best class in the whole draft?

      By WhoKnows · Posted

      Seriously? You think we might have 4 or even 5 starters the next couple years from last year’s draft? Wallace and Legette were starters because of injuries and no good depth. We’ve already resigned Thielen and drafted TMac. I’d be shocked if Legette isn’t WR4 (snap/target/production wise) behind those two and Coker. I’m not Sure if Wallace will stay a starter with Rozeboom. Smith-Wade might be the likeliest starter for now because we didn’t draft a CB. We’ll see if he sticks. Sanders may also start but the starting TE is like being the tallest midget. We’ve had about 500ish receiving yards from TEs each of the past 3 years whether it was Thomas/Tremble or Tremble/Hurst or Tremble/Sanders. Honestly, if Evans can stay healthy, the fact that he can actually block (unlike Thomas who sucked but was called a blocking TE) and catch could make him the best starter we have at TE. Also, Brooks missing two of four rookie contract seasons and caused us to draft Etienne in the 4th and sign Dowdle. Sorry man, you’re smoking some serious hopium trying to justify last year’s draft as if it was good. We are one of the worst talented teams in the NFL over the past 7 seasons and sometimes that means that we get a lot of rookie contributors but it doesn’t mean it was a good draft. Until the rookies are actually above average starters it’s like going from Thomas to Tremble to Sanders to Evans. There’s no impact to our win total until one of them actually is more than just a starter because we have to play someone. One last nugget, we won’t be a playoff team if 25% of our starters are from the 2024 draft.

      At the end of the day his momma should’ve just named him better.  This is some weird sh*t “please everybody please call him this, he asked super nicely”

      Sure looked that way. That draft room looked like a funeral when the pick was announced and they'd already taken a QB two rounds earlier. Did not seem like a decision made by the folks in that room. Said it during the draft.
