Steelers @ Lions Game Evening Thread

Discuss!

Eli Rogers dropped a gimmie in the end zone...ugh.

That should've been 6. Red zone trouble again!

Fucking Rogers, that's why your ass got benched

Land of the field goals. They went all that way just to score 3. Damn it. So it continues...

I was hoping they'd run it on 3rd and 2 but that's fine, that pass should've been a TD

Oh good lord WTF

Love how Hargrave got molested on that long completion to Marvin Jones. He would've likely had a sack, or at least put his hands on Stafford.

Held them to 3. Bend, don't break.

Hopefully the offense can keep rolling. Looked pretty sharp that first drive minus Rogers' drop in the endzone.

Did Ben just throw to AB in triple coverage?

Ben is at it again with that INT. Nothing like having as many INTs as TDs....

Seriously Ben, safety over the top. Stop trying to force it. It's like we have to be impatient and try to force big plays when the offense is picking apart the defense with the short-intermediate stuff. Take what the defense gives you. If there's double coverage there don't take that risk. Promising drive wasted.

Is Ben letting his passes float a little? Seems his passes used to have more zip,

Alright, the Defense bailed you out Ben. Repay the favor.

Does this feel like a pre-season game ? Neither team seems particularly bothered.

I think he is. Seems like they sail a little more. Doesn't quite have that touch to it we're accustomed to.

I think he's trying to drop them in to the WRs instead of letting the WRs go get it

Detroit's defense can't be this good.

If Mitchell lifts his head up, he could've had a chance at an INT.

Yeesh. Two runs to Bell for nothing, and a dump pass to Bell for nothing.

This Lions defense is begging the Steelers to throw the ball on them. You can see it.

They're pressuring the run and so far it's working wonderfully for them. Thankfully our defense is showing up tonight too.

Need to mix things up. If the D cheats and stacks the box then make them pay. Instead we run it right at them.

I certainly hope the Steelers offense decides to show up tonight.

Need to remember who we are and what talent we have hidden on the offense. Then open it up.
