Yeah that 9 minute drive where they actually gained about 110 yards (with penalties) was the back breaker.

Basically the inverse of what happened in Seattle the week prior. The reason Wilks shouldn't get the HC job full time is because he has zero idea what to do to counter the Steelers. Any HC can win when their players are dominating the trenches.

See I disagree with this. I'm not the biggest Burns fan and I was disgusted that we turned down an absolute haul for him, but he definitely gets timely sacks. The problem with Burns is that he doesn't impact the game outside of that. The guys on the list above are problems on every down. Burns disappears for large stretches of the game, then comes up with a big TFL / Sack to remind you that he's been on the field this whole time.

I'm not sure he did under throw it - the S was coming across. Either way with how bad QB play has been for years in Charlotte I was just happy with the long completion. I wish Marshall had made that contested catch later in the game too - it turned 7 points into 3.

Pitts has always been just a big WR.

Richardson will overthrow the fence.

Nah I'm not sold on that guy at all. I'd much prefer Young, but he's far too small for me to sell the farm for him.

We could honestly do a lot worse than picking a mismatch TE in the first round. Someone that can run past LBs and go up above S. Ideally someone that can block too. It would really open up our offence.

There's no QB I'd trade up for in the first round this year.

Am I the only one that didn't have an issue with the QB draw? The execution was poor, but I like the idea.

Trubisky tried to give us the ball 3 times, alas we didn't want it.

We were always going to get obliterated in the Playoffs - it would have just said a lot if we'd got there. Alas we just got emasculated at home by the hated Steelers.

They're committed to it now after turning down that trade.

20 rushing yards, no rushes for 1st downs and the Steelers started the 2nd half with a 90 yard, 9 minute drive for a TD. Yeah, I'm not blaming the QB for this one.

"So Darnold now going to have to throw the football all over the field". Have you been watching this game, mate? We have like 20 yards rushing today.

If only we had fans in the stands to wear bags on their heads.

He nearly threw 3 INTs. What game were you watching?

Yep. Tomlin might need to offer him a job next year alongside Flores. He's just cost another black HC a big time job today.

Which Franchise QB is that?

Pickens Moss'd Traylor when he was matched up with him. He's done nothing since Horn was assigned to him. There's a reason for that.

Who else would you put on him? Henderson is injured (Jackson is on IR) and Horn is covering their best WR.

He's only playing because Henderson is injured.

He's been fine today.

And play him 20 yards off the WR.

He's always been capable of this. That said we need to finish with 7 points here.
