31 to 3 near the end of the 3rd quarter, GO PICKETT!

So, lets start talking about never having a losing season, and the imminent "Retirement" that's going to start being talked about.

That was the score in the 2nd Quarter, Devo

Ugly win I didn't think they had in them today. And that's why I didn't want Pickett playing yet

HDGristle · 10-23-2022, 02:42 PM

Not sure Kenny or Tua should really be playing tonight.

Do we think we'll see Mitch back on the field?

HDGristle · 10-23-2022, 10:25 PM

Can't believe it was that close. Sad they couldn't pull that one out in the end.

Embarrassing losing to the fish led by a coach that looks like toby mcguire

... Too right, mate!

Mitch should have played... stay-with the "hot hand"...

Surely seem that Tomlin is a baby - who doesn't fancy
gettin' knocked-about by the media.

The last 2 drives were really disappointing. If Kenny wants to win over the city he’s going to need to deliver in these clutch situations like Ben could. I still have high hopes he’ll mature into one of the greats.

I disagree. Pickett is the future, let him get past the learning curve as quickly as possible.

I agree about giving him time. If I remember correctly, Big Ben had his fair share of challenges in clutch situation in his first year or 2. I not sure what other decent options are out there right now anyway.

Only problem I see with giving him time is giving him time with this version of the team. Ben had a solid lineup and was able to manage games for the most part with a good o-line and running game.

This team ain't that one. It's the kind that helps kill a young QB's confidence. Don't want to see Pickett become the next Tim Couch, or worse... David Carr

Ask Mark Madden, he basically quotes me and leave the affirmative action out of it, if he actually spoke the truth, they'd hang him.

Lousy coach, ownership that won't' fire him, and, he's never going to quit.

What I predicted years ago, has come to pass, which, was when the last of Cowhers team was gone, they would fall apart because he has BUILT NOTHING, and only succeeded because of the prior systems foundations were still in place.

Get used to Kordell Stewarts, Blood Blisters, Neil O'donnels MAYBE, as I doubt Tomlin could find someone that good.

It really makes me glad I hate the owners as much as I do, if it costs them a dime, I'm happier.

HDGristle · 11-08-2022, 06:59 PM

I will admit, you DO make the Mark Madden Super Genius personna seem tame by comparison.

Charley3 · 11-08-2022, 08:55 PM

My opinion Tomlin is the most overrated coach in Pittsburgh sports history. He was handed Ben off his worse year (accident and appendectomy) along with Bruce Arians and Dick Lebeow as his coordinaters. And what exactly is Tomlins expertise? We underperform on D and he doesn’t do anything on O.
