The Steelers running game isn’t as good as ours even without factoring in qb runs. Their oline is mediocre, teams have been stacking the box and they have swung games hitting a big play or two through the air. It feels like people are comparing what they think the Steelers and bills franchise are known for vaguely rather than the actual current teams lol

Whoever they get for oc seems even more important than hc now…that defense was gonna be fine either way

They probably should’ve won last week and played at home this week if they were worried about it

They can consider multiple things at the same time lol and given the clock has pretty much run out on moving it and still having the game at 1 Sunday, its likely they prefer a reschedule over moving it if the weather gets too bad

I gotta agree…belichicks face when Josh started throwing darts into the wind in that infamous wind game was priceless. The result of that one was an absolute fluke and people take it like it’s gospel. we’ve won all of the high wind games I can think of but that one

That was like a dusting of snow dude lol. They’re talking about possibly 18 inches now in this storm not sure how much during the game though

The odds they’re moving it and playing Sunday are gonna be pretty much 0 in a couple hours lol

I must be living in an alternate universe because diggs looks fired up to me literally all the time lol

Now I’m kind of glad the wind game happened because that’s an absolutely idiotic strategy that people think is viable apparently lol that game was an absolute fluke with NE breaking that big run…they had like 200+ rushing yards and only crossed midfield twice. That NE oline was pretty good too and pits is just ok. And who says running every play is any safer? The fumble risk is high. not saying youre wrong it’s the fs1 guys. Keeping the passes shorter would obviously be smart.

Yea the denial was not even a denial really lol they said ‘there’s no plans to move the game’ and there likely aren’t yet…doesn’t mean they didn’t talk to Cleveland about being a backup site I think it’s too late to have the game Sunday and move it now though so they’re either playing in it or it’s gonna get postponed. Last time they decided to move Thursday and it was still tough so I’d assume Friday would be even worse

There’s a lot of legendary coaches that would be just ok if you took their best player away lol. He was also the gm that drafted Tom and the coach that gave him a shot too so I think he deserves some credit for Brady’s success also

I don’t think there’s as big of a distinction between a big time regular season game and a playoff game as people make it sound. We’ve been playing playoff football for weeks now against playoff teams battling for seeding and the defense has played well. All the talk about Pitt has been interesting to me…you’d think they are calling the army offense and just running every play lol. Really their running game has been mediocre and they’ve been getting it done throwing when the box gets crowded

No one has said a 4th down throw is just like a punt lol a deep third down INT is just like a punt because it’s either intercepted deep down the field or knocked down/dropped and you have an opportunity to punt still. A 4th down play you’re gonna lose possession if you don’t make a play anyway so you might as well give it a chance…that’s not really the same thing. Gabe had a chance at that ball if he didn’t fall down yea in retrospect when everyone’s covered on 4th down it’d be nice to be able to go back in time and punt but unfortunately the world doesn’t work that way lol

It’s about the same…neither can run the ball when the box gets crowded. Agree with the suck it up part though lol

I feel like watching film probably doesn’t do it justice

Excellent run game? lol y’all are pushing it they’ve got a pretty good run game as long as they can throw to keep the box light…teams that were able to stack the box absolutely demolished them. Their oline is not very good really depends on what the weather actually ends up being but I’m gonna say 21-10 bills

That’s brilliant…I had like 10 layers on for the bills pats wildcard game and everything was toasty except for my feet on that frozen concrete…had tons of socks on and hand warmers in my boots but it made no difference

Oh yea I don’t either that’s what I was trying to say…they’re getting lighter boxes because Rudolph has been hittin some throws. People are makin it sound like pit is playing smashmouth football and will run it on us easily even if we know it’s coming which is definitely not the case

This continues to confuse me…I would let the game play out before making the claim it is not to the bills advantage. The only evidence that it’s not to the bills advantage is that y’all are nervous about the game lol look at the NE game…they broke one big run which ended up being the difference but only crossed midfield like one other time and couldn’t even attempt a pass. We were much weaker in the trenches back then also so that game isn’t even relevant really. On offense in that one I would argue we waited too long to try to throw…Josh was hitting throws into the wind in the 4th quarter pretty easily. Absolute fluky loss from a few years ago has everyone spooked still it seems. We play that game in those exact conditions 10 times I think we win 8

Najee’s stats didn’t pick up until they got a qb that can actually throw the ball lol i watched them have runs blown up all year long he averaged around 50 rushing ypg up until Rudolph took over. The vast majority of those games Warren didn’t do much of anything either

That really depends on what the weather ends up being. A foot of snow could equalize both sides …moderate wind does not equalize both sides though and idk where people are getting this idea that it does we don’t even attempt long field goals anymore, Najee Harris has as many lost fumbles as cook does and is even more off and on, the entire pit offense has been jump started by mason Rudolph deep balls when we haven’t been hitting deep shots as consistently. Our qb can run like a fullback and has the stronger arm. Assuming it’s just 20-30 mph wind with some light snow I think the weather tilts the game in our direction even more. If it’s hurricane winds or snow like that colts game a couple years back then we can talk about ‘equalizers’. Sounds like the forecasts are all over the place though. Steelers ain’t a team that can run it every down and have success…they were getting stymied on offense until Rudolph could lighten the boxes by hitting some downfield throws. If the weather prevents them from doing so I don’t think they’re getting in the end zone The NE game has scarred people too much I’m afraid lol. It’s a shame too because it was an absolute fluke that they won that one especially in that weather and belichick knew it and celebrated like he won the Super Bowl afterwards 🤣

Pats game was windier than this one is gonna be…also I really think that was a fluky loss weather or not personally. We were moving the ball fine through the air and waited too long to commit to throwing imo. Josh threw a deep ball that doinked off diggs’ head also lol Mac could not throw at all which made the pats super one dimensional…they crossed midfield like two times if the Steelers were some ground and pound juggernaut with a beast of an oline maybe I’d feel uneasy and this seems to be the way they’re being talked about around here for some reason.. they really aren’t that though.. their offense was anemic until Rudolph got a shot and started hitting some deep passes downfield

Accuweather says lake effect snow,weather.com says a small 1-2 inch type snowstorm, weather.gov says snow showers which id assume is even less than that if there was that serious of a chance for a lake effect snowstorm I think there’d be murmurs about moving the game imo

That defense seems like it could be crazy good if a little healthier but I think a lot of that is belichick. He ran that offense straight into the ground though lol

I get the cbs notifications for tds and such so after 30 seconds of waiting I figured they didn’t score when I didn’t get one lol
