Biggest thought from today

If you didn't play the angle that Tepper was a former (partial) owner of the Steelers and Mike Tomlin thinks he's a bumbling retard, and wanted to beat his ass, then you are as big of a loser as this organization.  

Meanwhile, I'll be having a porterhouse, loaded baked potato and all the liquor one can consume on my winnings from knowing the Panthers will always Panthers and find a way to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory.

My biggest (and most surprising) thought from today :

 

Sam played better than I expected him to.

He also had zero turnovers (which has always been an issue for him career-wise). 

He also threw the ball away instead of forcing it which was also an issue of his.

 

All in all, he played a very steady game.

Unfortunately he also showed that he lacked Game-Awareness like knowing when to run and when not to.

 

Hopefully he fooled some GM out there into thinking he'd make a good backup for his team...

...in the meantime, I would love to see Corral get a LEGIT shot next season.

Run the ball

Stop the run

Win in the trenches on both sides

Get off the field on 3rd down

Time of possession

We accomplished zero of these which is a pretty solid formula to win in the NFL. We were outcoached and both our offensive and defensive gameplans were JV-level of coaching. It felt like a Ron Rivera kinda L for sure.

My biggest take away from today is that we need more beef up front on both sides of the ball. And not only big but nasty as well.

We also very much need a serious upgrade in coaches and most likely a new GM as well, at least I'm on board for it. Let's start there and work our way down the list, it's a very long list.

I was somewhat surprised because I thought our offensive line was better than it showed Sunday after seeing how they got pushed around and beat up pretty bad.

They are much better than last years group and that's not debatable.  They just went up against a better defense, at least game plan wise. They held up better than I expected for most of the game. 

Pittsburgh is a tough team to out muscle when their back is against the wall. Tomlin needed this win just as badly if not more than Wilks.

There was no was they were going to let the Panthers run on them. You can bet your ass he made sure of that. He dared us to beat them with  Ben McAdoo calling pass plays for Sam Darnold.

      Canes vs Bruins 7pm Halloween Edition!

      By Anybodyhome · Posted

      As I said less than 10 minutes into the game, Boston looks nothing like we're used to seeing. Regardless, any curb-stomping of the Bruins is welcome.  The scorers all got the glory tonight, but all 6 D-men had excellent games. Across the board- Gost, Orlov, Chatty, Walker and, of course, Slavin & Burns.

      With the first pick, don't draft a QB? Draft a DE? C'mon!

      I just tried a few mock draft simulators and this is the only way lol. Nothing else makes sense.

      No, biggest weakness is pass rush, but I don't think there is a blue chip can't miss DE prospect to take at #1 this year, same as with QB.  But beyond that, moving forward, yea WR is a pretty damn big weakness. We have 1 game this season over 224 yards passing and just traded away our best WR (who wasn't going to re-sign here anyways).  That WR no longer on the team was also the only player we've had this year who had over 78 yards receiving in a game.  So again, yea, WR is one of our biggest weaknesses even right now, let alone moving into the future. As I just said in my other post, I love Legette, but he's not going to be a Top 5-10 WR type of guy, Top 15-20 I can see, I think he can be a good #1 WR or an elite #2. After that, what do we have for the future?  Thielen isn't part of it, sure as hell isn't going to be Mingo, and as much as we all like Coker, in no world is Coker as our #2 to Legette as the #1 going be considered as "having weapons" at WR, even with Brooks and Sanders. But put someone like T-Mac into that group, who I genuinely think is going to be a Top 5 WR in this league for a long time, and it changes things.  A Top 5 WR with Legette/Coker as the 2/3, along with Brooks and Sanders, has the potential to be one of the best set of offensive weapons in the league if they reach their potential.
