Steelers had a LT, LG, RG and a WR vs AJ Epenesa, Tyrel Dodson, and Matt Milano. Dane Jackson was 10 yards off the ball and retreated even more after the snap. Poona Ford and Tim Settle fall down. Poyer didn’t want to tackle. The Bills probably never call that defense in the regular season.

I don’t know. I’ve been on teams where the coach take the practice film and smashed it after a bad practice. Other times he’d call out everyone in the film session. I don’t know how McDermott will handle it. I think they believe they have a veteran team and won’t really stress what happened other than the pre snap penalties.

Preseason brings out the best in fans. Always.

I don’t understand how he looks bigger now than when camp started? Bro hiding candy in his pillow case.

Good OTs don’t grow on trees. You can’t just load up at OT. You kind of just have to get it right. If your guy can’t play then you find another one. Dawkins is showing signs of decline. He’s still a pretty much the same guy but there’s now some moments he’s beat clean in pass protection. Weight as he’s getting older might be a problem. I don’t know how they currently feel about Spencer Brown. Their actions say they love him. They moved an above average RT Daryl Williams inside to RG because they had to get Brown on the field as a rookie. He was terrible with small flashes of elite run blocking. Daryl Williams might still be our RT today if they never made that move. He’s retired now but who knows what happens. There are some similarities between Spencer Brown and Dawson Knox. Raw talent but very inconsistent early in their careers. Knox became more consistent and turned it into a new contract. We’ll see about Brown. Poyer stays taking bad angles. He does it all the time. Especially in the run game. Nothing new. He’ll be fine because it’s a passing league. I will say this though, Warren is a slow RB and dusted Poyer.

Dawkins isn’t a problem. He’s not a top LT but he’s far from a problem. I do think as he’s getting older he has to keep his weight lower than it is. The time to fix RT was a long time ago. Peters can probably still be an upgrade but it’s the end of August, RT upgrades likely aren’t coming. I mentioned Kromer a few times this offseason. The OL as a unit wasn’t good. Some of it is on him.

Our OL is actually very athletic testing wise. I think that point was made last night. They played a lot.

Sign Peters and start him at RT immediately. Brown will get another opportunity to start. Accountability is important. He’s just not consistent enough. Panic no, but there needs to be accountability. There is no panic. They can scheme up things to help protection. The offense has been operating just fine with Brown. But his inconsistency remains. If Peters can come in and start and push Brown to 3rd OT that’s a good thing.

Bernard, our hero. No one can convince me that Rashaan Evans wouldn’t be a better option than Dodson. Should have drafted Tremaine Edmunds backup in the first round? Unless the Bills knew Edmunds wasn’t returning then this doesn’t make sense. If they would’ve drafted Lloyd then they probably trade Edmunds last year and use his cap space. Yes, with what we know today Lloyd would’ve been the right pick. But at the time of the draft it would’ve been odd. We’d also probably be down on Lloyd because he obviously wasn’t ready to handle the NFL last year.

We’ll see. It was an easy coverage for him to beat.

I’m guessing no. They got their live reps in. Nothing really to prove in preseason.

Josh said it. “They wanted it.” Let’s not sugarcoat it. The Steelers were embarrassed last year in the regular season. A lot of the same players still starting on that team. They wanted their revenge. They were fired up. You could see the difference. They wanted it.

Good?

He’s eating well though.

Lol that’s the first name I thought of but knew it couldn’t be him. That was like 10 years ago. He actually turned out OK.

Quessenberry special there.

Who was the RB last preseason we all loved?

Come on man.

Learned to turn his leg backwards also.

Not meant to be Doyle.

Preseason is about getting some live reps and staying healthy. Nothing more.

Preseason makes champions! Honestly though Pittsburgh looked fired up. They got revenge for the 38-3 thumping they took last year.

Both lines are better than last year. MLB is a problem.

McDermott with the assist once again on a TD. 🤣
