Week 17 game thread
- Thread starter Deathofthebambino
- Start date
There just seem to be no deviating from whatever plans Canada had unless Ben was making the calls on the field...and then they'd come roaring back from being down 20+ points.
As mentioned upthread, running third and fourth down passing players where the receivers are catching the ball two to three yards before the marker is foolish and Canada called it far too many times.
This is comically bad coaching. Chubb hasn't seen the field in like two series.
Also really enjoying their strategy of giving no help to their RT v Watt like they’ve got Walter Jones out there
The Steelers are the worst run D in the league and Chubb enters the half with four carries, amazing.
2 minute drill and he was on the field for a total of 0 plays.
He is their best player, by far.
Stefanski calling a time out with 28 seconds left in the half after the previous 29 minutes is grounds for a punch in the nuts.
Not using Chubb in the entire second quarter is definitely grounds for a reassessment of his planning.

What am i talking about? Do you need to be pedantic when it's clear I'm talking about the offense?
Sometimes it really isn't all that complicated. Put the best players non the field and get them involved as much as possible.
35 for 90 when you include sacks.
Baker is at 17 for 41
52 drop backs. 131 yards. In 2022.
Egads, indeed. It’s such a poorly designed passing offense being operated by a guy who just doesn’t have it anymore, all being masked by an even worse performance on the other side of the ball.
It’s like they decided the Steelers run D is so bad that they’d never expect Cleveland to attack through the air.
Why not just run Chubb on 3rd and 3? Seriously, what are they doing? Mayfield has happy feet and he also can't throw.
Not a chance...the fans who've watched this team since they started last season 11-0 know it is time to part ways.
1, 2, 0 - that’s how many yards past the line of scrimmage Johnson, McCloud, and Freiermuth were on those passes. High school teams throw downfield more. The Browns’ ineptitude is masking the Steelers’. For those that don’t watch regularly, this is how it usually goes but without the run game effectiveness.
So why isn't that a taunting penalty on TJ Watt? He makes a good play, then points directly at Mayfield, and starts talking smack to him.
It should have been. But the NFL hates Cleveland and Detroit.
So they never get the calls.
My wife is from Cleveland and I have spent the last 10 months living in Cleveland. So I must confess that I don't hate Cleveland.
Baker seems to be staring down his receivers badly. Makes it pretty easy for the Steelers to figure out where he is throwing.
I wanted them to be good this year…I’m not going to make any wife jokes, not my style.
