GroundAttack Posted October 11, 2020 Share Posted October 11, 2020 Just when you thought this team brings you in when facing adversity they fall on their face. One simple tackle by LeBlanc and this rout isn't happening. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Br3 Posted October 11, 2020 Share Posted October 11, 2020 You pick Leblanc to blame for this when he made a few nice plays and a fumble recovery and not the fact that we are playing 10 on 11 with Gerry out there 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brkmsn Posted October 11, 2020 Share Posted October 11, 2020 The Steelers were undefeated so far, playing at home in front of limited fans for the 1st time this year and have one of the best defenses in the NFL. The Eagles managed to stay competitive until the end. It's disappointing when you know a few mistakes were probably the difference in the outcome. Still, it was good work for the young players forced to play and it should serve as motivation to everybody capable of being motivated. Fulgham and Wentz seem to be developing an important connection and our new WR is certainly winning the fans over. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EagleJoe8 Posted October 11, 2020 Share Posted October 11, 2020 I liked the win last week, but I never let it fool me into thinking there was some sort of turnaround. SF was as beat up as we are. Gonna get uglier next week. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The win against SF was a nice surprise but it was an ugly game that did nothing really to change my mind on where this team is heading. And look at SF this week. That's a football team who have a lot of injuries and are coming back to earth with a thump after their SB appearance last year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There really isn't, that was the first time the Steelers offense have broken 30 points since 2017, we managed one more score on the Steelers than the Gina's and the Bronco's managed, we made hard work of beating a San Fran team that just got embarrassed by the Miami Dolphins. This season is cooked, offensively we don't have enough to cover the deficiencies on the back end of the defense, crawling out of this division would only add insult to injury.

And I wish we for it on that 4th and 5 It was as much Howie's fault, for not drafting LBs, as it was JS fault for assigning a LB to cover Pitt's 4TD sensational WR. Offensive line and Wentz for the whole game, minus the last 4 minuets, was a positive surprise. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was very little run game because they shut that down too. Not sure I would say the offensive line was a positive. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Considering that Lane was out and we played a bunch of rookies , I thought they did rather well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In my mind, before the game started, I fully expected Pitt will devastate our shabby offensive line and put up some huge sack numbers. This did not happen. We lost, but we were NOT blown away. By that definition the offensive line held, even if we were forced to keep Ertz to assist Mailata, we were not demolished. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We lost, we showed good fight but I also think Pittsburgh eased up with a 17 point lead and very almost blew it. Wentz got sacked was it 5 times? Hit 20 times? And we weren't able to establish a run game. I'd say it was a huge struggle for our OL yesterday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
