What went wrong in the Steelers 17-14 loss to the Patriots?

In what the hosts believe was a winnable game, there are lots of people being thrown under the bus for the defeat. Is there one particular scapegoat?

  1. I'll.never understand fans who would rather see Mason start over Pickens. Did they not watch Kenny in the summer. Clearly the best of the 3. We would be 2 and 0 with Kenny right now. Instead Kenny will take over when we are 1 and 2

  2. But it all comes down to the head coach. He is not putting the best players on the field to win. He is screwing the fans out of watching something that could be special. This team is unwatchable. I recorded the game and have yet watched this entire game. It's run on first short pass on second or penalty. 3rd and long throw it 2 yards and hope a relievers breaks it. Then punt and hope the defense is not gased and worn out. That's the steelers now. I could play call better than that

  3. Seeing Trubisky being consoled and spoken to over & over on the sidelines when he was in Chicago — and then they shipped him out — that spoke volumes about his demeanor as an NFL quarterback. It's not a talent issue, to me, it's a confidence issue.

    I don't love Matt Canada but he has given Mitch options and the guy just isn't pulling the trigger. Playing scared is correct, Zac.

  4. I'm no fan of Canada, Joe I've even spoke with you on Twitter about it.. I just don't see it (yet – maybe i can be turned around) but the one common denominator between this season and last season's offense, is Canada – he doesn't deserve a pass…

    But I whole heartedly agree about Trubisky.. and I was one of the ones in the off-season kind of excited for him coming in, to hopefully have a decent bounce back season.. but holy shit, these first 2 games have been capital BR-UTAL.. and like you guys, I've thrown in the towel.. if he struggles again in WK3, then WK4 it will/or should be Pickett starting – shit I'd take Rudolph at this point too – couldn't hurt..

  5. I have been saying this since they took Trubisky. I have been vindicated. If you look on Twitter you will see me months ago complaining about Trubisky and it is working out just like I said it would. Put in Kenny!

  6. People like you guys make me laugh! You guys are fans and critics, not coaches.The problem is offensive coordinator and o-line,it's not going to matter who you put in as quarterback,your still going to have the same problem.

  7. @19:49, most of these commentators that have an opinion about catching a ball in traffic or anything about that play have NEVER played full contact sports…….by the way……Lacrosse is not a full contact sport, Chess or Checkers is not a full contact sport

  8. This whole experience falls on Blowfish tomlin. He and only he, is responsible for giving the ok for the game plan (Remember why Brady wanted Arians gone?). When will the spotlight fall on that Blowfish, and his ineptitude be exposed?

    Reply
  9. Coulda, shoulda, but you didn't!. Who approved the game plan offensively? Dan Rooney?, whos does it fall upon to make 2nd half adjustments? Bill Cowher?…..I mean seriously no adjustments after halftime….what do you think the outcome would or will be?

  10. I feared that the defense would take a step back without TJ&with no sacks you could say they did, but when guys on other units make mistakes, it becomes like a boulder rolling down hill that none of them can stop. Job 1 take care of the ball, Job 2, sustain drives. I'm with Zac tho I'm not impressed by Trubisky, and after the short week if we see Pickett I'm not gonna be mad. I'm not saying he's the savior but as Joe said, we have to figure that out.

  11. They want a competition and to see how they do , just rotate the quarterbacks.If they all know they are all going to get a legit shot ,then no one’s confidence gets ruined .Mason should get a start too .You got 3 untested qb’s . Try them all .They have nothing to lose, besides ,Canadas play calling sucks ,so it’s going to take a qb to think on his own

  12. AHHHHHHH, here I go again, he's doing it one more time…..praising the other team that just made you look like you don't belong in this league. Blame the other idiot OC all you want to, but someone was supposed to do their homework and get the history behind this guy, someone had to ok the game plan, guess what it's becoming more and more clear to me that, someone has no effing clue as to what they're doing. Does anyone but me see another Antonio in Pickens being groomed by that dumbass someone?????. IN the world of Martial Arts, there's a saying, where the head goes, the body will follow!. Read between the lines.
