The Pittsburgh defence is shit without Ryan Shazier.
The Pittsburgh defence is shit without Ryan Shazier.
BortlesWhat a guy.
These cunts deserve it. Spent all week talking about the Patriots. Oops.
Fournette has more rushing TDs at Heinz field this year than him.![]()
Yep. Teams seem to fall apart when the general isn't there. The panthers would do the same if Luke wasn't there.
This defensive showing is quite possibly the worst I've seen from Pittsburgh in my few years watching. In the first game Ben had a mare but this has been all on the defence, primarily the defensive line and linebackers. Jags seems to be walking through holes.
Nah, they were good the first half of the season, then they started giving up huge plays to everyone, and then Shazier went down & now they're garbo.
Jalen Ramsey/Myles Jack v Gronk should be interesting to watch next week![]()
Why did the clock stop after the Steelers converted? I know the guy was injured, but surely that costs you a time out? If not, why don't teams just fake injuries all the time?
Big Ben donning people in the open field with fake laterals![]()
If I remember rightly it costs you a timeout after the two minute warning, with the obligatory runoff if you don't have any, but the rest of the time it's a medical timeout which doesn't count for either team. I'm not aware of anything that would stop teams exploiting it, but presumably there must be something in there to cover that possibility.
Tough to defend that.
That was very good from Ben.
Not sure why the commentators are talking about the Steelers have to trust their defence and not do the onside.
How can you possibly trust that fucking defence?
What a horrible onside kick that wasBasically in FG range already.
I think the decision was right but the execution was fucking awful.
I'd go for it.
Sneak or just let Fournette pound it up the middle.
Edit: Pussies.
You couldn't go for that knowing there's zero threat of the Steelers recovering an onside kick. That's the game.
Jags doing Britain proud![]()
I doubt Marcel Dareus has ever attempted to zone cover before.
I've gone big on the Saints (and Thomas/Kamara), 'mon boys.
Was good of them to at least try and recover that.
Michael Thomas to score a TD anytime @ 2.87 is fucking outstanding value btw.
Get on it if you can.
Putting up 42 points at home in the play-offs and still losing is lol.
Especially when the other team have Bortles at QB.
I know the dream ends next week against the Patriots but I'd fucking love it if the Jags won it all. They're the closest thing I have to a team so I'm loving this now it's over, particularly as I know a bunch of Steelers fans.
Would love a Jags/Eagles Super Bowl so that the rematch is at Wembley.![]()
I'm fine with anyone winning now, although the Saints are obviously my preference. It'd be nice to have someone other than Brady win, I guess.
The Eagles playing either the Vikings or the Jags would be ugly as hell with Foles as QB.
I guess my preference at this stage would be Jags, Saints, Vikings, Eagles and then the Patriots a long way behind them all. Not much to choose between 2-4.
For some reason I thought the Panthers were still in too and was going to be tough to decide between them and Pats for last, but thankfully they're not.
I really like Hanson in the studio. He works well with the regulars.
That first carry was probably longer than any we had last week.
What a tackle by Morstead.
Not exactly the start we needed.
Crawley loves a flag.
Going well so far Ken
It's exactly the type of game he can have - he's got better at tackling since the start of the season, but he's really grabby & physical, so he can rack up penalties if the referees don't like the way he plays.
What are we doing with PJ Williams on Kyle Rudolph?
Need to get something going on offence here.
Well, I think I'm going to put some Sam Darnold cut-ups on & cry for a bit.
That's a brilliant interception.
Yep, hell of a pick. We're going to get stomped hereThe coffee is being swapped for whiskey soon, I think.
It's just too easy for the Vikings right now.
This is miserable.
Just as it was looking like we might have a game.
Might just turn off altogether at this point![]()
Just give it to Kamara every play.
I lolled.
Doesn't look good for Sendejo there.
Looks like he got knocked out.
Was a pick play (accidental I think) and he took a big hit.
Money.
I went quite deep (£60) so I'm really happy with that.
Thomas is a babe.
Nice work. Now we just need to do that again on every drive we get for the rest of the game & we might have a chance.
'Mon lads.
2 TD's for Kamara, Saints win and over 47.
Let's go.
