Re: Pens Season Thread (starting 2-5-26)

Two goals by a 23 year old. Two goals by an 18 year old (granted, one was an empty net). 0 goals and 1 assists by anyone over the age of 35. And that's not a knock on the old guys, just excitement that the old guys don't have to shoulder the load 100% of the time anymore. I'm not saying we're cup co...

Re: Steelers have given Aaron Rodgers an Ultimatum

I hope this is fake news. It makes no sense. Hell, even Willis or some other JAG would at least be interesting (and I want to see Howard, even if he has only a 5% chance of being an NFL backup). From what McCarthy seemed to describe, I'm not sure what Rodgers does for his offensive vision. Willis o...

Analytics also doesn't take into account what has been going on the entire game. The flow of the game. I can't speak to the specific analytics that coaches use, but generally speaking, yes, analytics most certainly can take into account what has been "going on the entire game". And that's before we...

Re: I thought teams would kill for Tomlin

Another thing is the Steelers still own the rights to Tomlin since he “retired” and wasn’t fired.

So teams couldn’t contact him if they wanted to, unless they negotiated with the Steelers first.

He will never coach again. Partly because he’s done it all, and also partly because he realized his style no longer wins and he was a letdown to his players. Even Ronde Barber said he is not coming back. Yeah, I think when you spend that long at an organization, the thought of going somewhere else ...

Re: Realistically, can the Steelers beat Houston?

Hated this matchup when I saw it. They're a defensive team, which plays right into our "grind the game to a screeching halt" mentality.

That is the not-so-secret NHALS formula.

I can't decide what's going to happen next week. They're either going to mimic this week's Cleveland game and be completely inept.

I thought that you couldn't use a tee for the kickoff after a safety? Or am I misremembering? (wouldn't be the first time) I believe it's considered a "free" kick, and you can use any kicking style you wish. Traditionally, teams would have used a punt because they're longer and have more air time. ...

They need to expand the real-time booth reviews to include penalties. I personally believe these things happen way too fast for on-field refs to be able to accurately rule on them.

We’re going to finish 8-9, win the division, then get smoked at home against a 44 year old Philip Rivers in the first round of the playoffs.

Then we’ll turn around and sign Rivers to a 2 year deal this offseason after Rodgers retires.

It’s too dumb to not happen.

You guys are so short sighted! There’s a 100% chance that there will be a play later this season where Connor Hayward takes the snap, fakes the tush push, and instead tosses it back to the QB, who attempts a pass to a TE who leaked into the flat. Granted, this same play will end up either in an INT ...
