Shavers first catch and first TD!!! and Trubisky just threw a TD!!!

We have been the beneficiaries of the some really soft penalties today. But after years of getting ripped off, I will take it!

Was that an old school "piling on" penalty?

The lame unnecessary roughness penalty on Rodgers was payback for the lame one we got sacking him in the first game.

Good throw? a 12 year old kid could have hit a receiver that wide open.

OMG we stopped them!!!!!

3 guys wide open on that play, bad pass by Rodgers!

He was on the cover of Sports illustrated and I always remember the "Can he take a hit" part of the article. If memory serves he was gimmick that didnt last that long. https://vault.si.com/vault/1982/04/26/but-can-he-take-a-hit

I must admit I didn't think much of Andy first time I laid eyes on him; looked like a stiff breeze would blow him over. That was my first impression of the man. Hey that Shawshank quote works for our defense too! I mean our "defesne"!!

Sounds like a complicated system of Mathematics. Or one of those eastern sounding guitar scales.

He wasnt one of my favorites here, but compared to what we have seen in the past few weeks, he was a few steps above in his prime.

Yesterday's game didnt do anything but bolster the idea that Stroud and the Texans are soft. The Ravens bullied them all game and after that 4th down stop on the goal line before halftime, The Texans just folded physically and emotionally.

Completely forgot about this guy and his short lived drama.

HOF tight end left 10 yards open. Steelers are a team of morons.

I agree, its both the scheme and the talent. Soft zone is fine with a dominant consistent pass rush, but we havent had any of that recently. So we just get picked apart with receivers running wide open with no DB within 5-10 yards. Even an elite group of Dbs could not close on a receiver that wide open fast enough. To make matters worse the current db group seem to lack ball awareness and game intelligence. They rarely turn around on coverage and never anticipate or jump a route. This is what losing Poyer, Hyde and Milano in their primes has done to us. Elam to me looks like a Db that has all the tools but cannot seem to read the play fast enough. Bishop shows promise but then looks lost at times. What especially bugs me is Mcd's penchant for staying the course on a scheme that isnt working (like his soft zone) instead of switching to man . Is this current Db group just not capable of switching on the fly? Or would they be even worse in man? As for the defensive line, they need to be better, the pressure has sometimes been non existent and the tackling when Qbs like Goff and Stafford were bottled up has been hit and literally miss.

The Bills D had no answers for the 30th ranked offense in the first half. They got the win only because of the offense and the Pats gifting them turnovers. We cannot do that against any quality team in the playoffs or it will look exactly like the Bengals playoff game from 2 years ago. I get they are walking wounded on the defense but McD and Babbich have to scheme these players into situations where they can succeed and soft zone with no pass rush is not it.

Morris with the butter fingers on the hands team! Almost Billsy!

Wow the dbs left that guy open by 5 yards! What a scheme by Babich.

First sack of the game??

OMG these refs !!

Every play is PI with this defense and no sacks??

Cam Lewis just made a play!!

Thats another one Shakir should have had!

Finally a turnover!!

Ah the McD give them extra time to perfect their play on offense Time out.
