Week 16 Discussion Thread

[ProfessaPackMan]

This week opens up with Broncos-Chargers on TNF.

Also, we get games this week on Thursday, Saturday, Sunday, Monday. And next week, Wednesday, Thursday, Saturday, Sunday and Monday.

Football Overload for the rest of the month and that’s not even including CFB.

Texans just can’t have nice things.

The Tank Dell injury seems to have unraveled the offense, just egregious mental errors over and over. Stroud casually strolling OOB for a 5 yard sack on 1st and Goal was inexcusable

Re: Week 16 Discussion Thread

The Maddencast on Peacock was pretty good. Didn't care for it at first, but Kurt Benkert talking through schemes, plays and adjustments in real time and the freedom to criticize everything from the refs to bad plays and playcalls was entertaining.

I could use a little less of the Madden stuff, but some of it was used really well, like the playcall screens.

I'm glad it wasn't just the game translated to Madden real time or something, it was basically a heavily Madden themed Manning-cast with better analysis.

Everything about Henry running is violent.

I clinch up everytime he goes to the ground because it looks like he hits so hard. Its amazing he has held up so long

The whole team looked devastated. Stroud was in tears. I don't know how they could have executed anything after that

Getting that FG before the half was big for the Steelers.

Defense giving up chunks.

Re: Week 16 Discussion Thread

MINKAH, FINAAAAAAAAAAALY!




And Wilson gives it right back, game over.

Re: Week 16 Discussion Thread

Baltimore's division to lose now. Don't see the Steelers beating KC on Christmas, Bengals game is a toss up. Could very well see them heading into the playoffs on a four game losing streak.


Russ's goal line fumble and pick six flipped the game along with the defense getting gashed. Hopefully Pickens is back and Porter isn't too banged up.

Re: Week 16 Discussion Thread

Pretty impressive fun fact -- this was Lamar's 4th interception on the year but the first that didn't hit his receiver's hands first, i.e. first interception all year Lamar actually threw to a defender vs going off the receiver's hands.

Re: Week 16 Discussion Thread

This team is an absolute joke, based on just these last 2 weeks, the Steelers will be one and done in the playoffs.

In looking at the year so far, while they are 10-5, they haven't beat any "top tier" teams, the Eagle game and now this game, going against better teams the Steelers show exactly just how outmatched they are.

They went from a top defense all the way down to 26, going into next week and the last week against Cincy, this sorry excuse of a defense is going to get carved up...yet again, there were so many holes in their zone defense tonight that I could've made those throws...

Should we talk about (yet again) the piss poor tackling?

If the Steelers lose out (which honestly, I can very easily see this happening) and go One and done in the playoffs, I will hope there are some definite shakeups in the coaching staff.

Starting with the head cheerleader himself, I am so sick and tired of hearing the whole "never had a losing season", this is the most worthless "stat" that I've ever heard of, and so many like to run with this crap.

Teryl Austin- enough said...being the top rated defense and falling to 26? and the head cheerleader himself supposed to be "defensive orientated"?

Arthur Smith- playcalling being very predictable, how many damn times is he gonna call the same toss play to Najee and Jaylon? Also towards the end of todays game, facing a 3rd and long...what does Smith call, a damn wr screen!!! was Canada in his ear or something? This was some Matt Canada style BS!!

Is it possible to get an actual offensive line coach that can coach these guys in not only the actual art of blocking, but holding the damn block long enough so the receivers can get down field.

To say I am disgusted by what I witnessed not only tonight, but last week as well would be an understatement.

Last thing...for the love of God, can somebody, anybody even the janitor teach the damn defense how to tackle??

Give it 24 hours for the pain of a loss to the Ravens to subside. Then you'll probably be clear headed enough to recognize that this post is nonsense

There is absolutely nothing about my post that is "nonsense", everything I said is absolutely true, so maybe YOU are the one that should stop the "nonsense" posts.

I don't need to give it "24 hours" for anything.
