Kirk had a year all to himself. There's no excuse for his performance thus far. Every QB has a bad game or two, but that's not what we saw. He appears uncomfortable. I think he's pressing too much due to the contract, but in any case, after a year under center I expect more from him. I...
It's not the loss or lack of likely playoff prospects that really bothers me. (well the loss sucks given my geo location :) ) I have no issue being beat by more talented teams, and right now that should be happening given where we are with the rebuild. I know rationally there's still a lot...
0-2 =i2% chance of playoff appearance historically. Hard to be excited about that given what we see on the field. No running game. Kirk looks like average Kirk. My resilience has been hammered out of me. I listened to the game while puttering on my shop instead of stopping down to...
You can't roll deep safety coverage effectively when your line sucks and is a sieve in the run game and incapable of generating any type of pass rush. Barry is going to have to be far more creative. I think ultimately the talent is still lacking and MCL needs at least one more, and probably...
Agree. McL screwed the pooch in not addressing the Dline. It starts with the lines. It's stupid simple IMO. It may be a passing league to score, but the running game is a great form of Defense. Stopping the run is critical. If your line can't do that, say good bye to safety help over...
I don't care about the loss. It's one game. But what I saw speaks to bad coaching and that worries me. It's one thing to be outplayed by a better team, which Pittsburgh certainly is, but all of the mistakes, errors and gaffs just aren't acceptable 3 years into this. Very disappointed.
Love this
cornerback Bashaud Breeland wasn’t lined up correctly before a play in a recent practice, Cousins started to scream that he could have quick-snapped Breeland for an easy touchdown, getting fired up about a play that didn’t even happen. “I think on some days there are guys who are not...
Train wreck in the making. You just never know who people are. Divorce happens. It's unfortunate and it's something I don't understand. But even in that, having your new GF's name tatoo'd on before you are even divorced is at the least very uncool. He just has no concept of flying under...
So many years of poor QB play still holds sway over my psyche. I want to believe he's the guy, I do think he has the capability. One of my main concerns is if he has the mental make up. That's always one of my primary concerns with a QB. There are tons of super athletic QB's that never...
It's a win for the team and for Kirk, if he plays at a high level next year. It's a win for the team (from a contract/financial perspective) for the team, and a lose for Kirk if he underperforms. So it's a Win/Win for the team IMO. Yes, the team will be on the hook for more money if he...
I hate comparisons to former players/coaches before the comparee accomplishes anything. The book is wide open on Gruden. He did seem to learn and move forward last year. If that trend continues, he may turn into an excellent coach. I've no problem with the team growing a coach, and I've no...
