This is risky, but is wrong to want a blue collar work ethic?

[AviationMX]

I was actually took some time off from the huddle after the last game, I hate it when we can't close a game...I still think we have a chance to win this division but over the last couple of losses something been getting on my nerves...

 

Newtons's first down celebrations, especially when behind....this is not a Newton bashing thread, it's just that doesn't this team to need to get back to a more blue collar work ethic---that they work as a team and that individuality and showmanship is put on the back burner? even TD celebrations when behind could be knocked off...the job is to win, not celebrate your stats...

 

This team needs to work as unit to get wins, they all have to have a good game to win now..we don't have any stars (except Star) and RR needs to return to a team concept.

 

Isn't that RR's MO anyway? should this team reflect his personality?

 

this is only place I could bring this up, so if it's been talked about to death forgive me and lock this up.

 

But if we are going to start getting traction, something has to change and attitude doesn't cost a dime...

we just had this thread and it didnt go well for the OP

Perfect...just had to get off my chest...lock it up and I'll be quiet now

Its hard to say for me. Im not big on doing the Superman or 1st down if we are gettn whooped. But i would welcome Norman's 'hype the crowd' after a big play to get crowd in it. So i think it depends. I have no problem with celebrations in general, but there are times to just walk back to huddle/sideline.

[Silent Majority]

Celebrate his stats? (rolling my fuging eyes).

Smh

[Pejorative Miscreant]

I think that should be incorporated in Shula's game plan. In the unlikely event of a 1st down, do not celebrate. Should fix a lot.

Cam didn't celebrate a single first down in the loss to the Saints. Good thing he was so Blue Collar

[Cary Kollins]

I didn't see Cam do the Superman celebration after he scored against the Saints.  Did anyone see if he did it after that rushing touchdown?

 

 

But honestly I agree with the OP.  When you are 1-5-1 in your last seven games, I could do without any player celebrating.

Some of the celebrations are a bit over the top, but I don't think they have much of an impact on the game one way or the other.  Now in basketball, I have seen players so busy celebrating a big play that they forget to get back on defense, but that is not an issue in football.

Yeah I want these players remembering that they fugging suck when they score a TD or make a great play. How dare they get pumped up.

Attitude doesn't cost a dime? I wonder why we didn't bring back Mitchell for the vet min then.

Take more time off.

The biggest problem is we are trying to be the Steelers and even the Steelers don't want to be the Steelers anymore.

[CelibatePimp]

I don't mind his superman celebrations, what I don't like about it is how long his teammates have to stand and wait for him to finish before congratulating him, like when he scored against NO last Thursday. It looks so awkward.

I think there is a poster here with a signature that shows Jordan Gross about to congratulate him and he starts his superman and Jordan just walks away.
