Another excellent tackle by Tuitt.

[Chucktownsteeler]

Yet again one team makes adjustments, the other team is incapable of adjustments.

We player checkers, they play chess.

[mcmillenandwife]

And there's your difference. They convert turnovers into points (specifically, TDs), we don't.

Dammit.

[Rollers]

our defense steps up

Sadly, it does seem that way.

Dammit.

Again...

[Chucktownsteeler]

Could get ugly here on out.

Can't pin this mess 100% on the defense, they created 4 turnovers which we converted to a whopping 6 points.

We just don't have any chemistry or playmakers on the offense.

I don't pin ANY of it on the defense. They've done their job. The offense has been inept. 

Rudolph needs to show he can play the game, the rest of the offense needs to give him some help.

[Chucktownsteeler]

This is gut check time.

[mcmillenandwife]

This is gut check time.

Yup.

[mcmillenandwife]

For crying out loud, we can't even line up right. On 3rd down, no less. Terrible. Awful.

If the standard is the standard, the standard is clearly too damn low.

[Chucktownsteeler]

Fucking coaching, these are penalties you should have ironed out in preseason.

[Chucktownsteeler]

Big series here, look for the 49ers to go deep at least once. They'll go for the jugular, our coaches go for the nut-sack.

[mcmillenandwife]

Oh, my... dodged a bullet there. How did Haden let that happen? He should've had a pick.

[Chucktownsteeler]

Called it. Haden must be blind.

[bbbooger]

And... tomlin calls a time out to make sure they have more time to look at the catch. ..

[Chucktownsteeler]

WTF? We call a TO, let them decide to challenge it? This coaching staff is devoid of any football sense.

[Chucktownsteeler]

Yet we go to the locker room at halftime with 2 TOs in our pocket. Tomlin is getting worse.

[mcmillenandwife]

Called it. Haden must be blind.

Yeah, he had good position, just didn't go GET the ball. The receiver wanted it more. 

We desperately need a pick 6 here. Or a scoop-n-score. It's on the defense completely, because the offense didn't show up today.

[Chucktownsteeler]

And... tomlin calls a time out to make sure they have more time to look at the catch. ..

Fucking guy should be fired and everyone knows it.

[Rollers]

Tomlin setting the standard yet again. We burn a time out. Our boys have no football sense whatsoever.

[mcmillenandwife]

Nice 1 yard run. 

[Chucktownsteeler]

Edmunds got lucking that wasn't called. I hearby had high hopes for this guy but he is a bustolo.

[mcmillenandwife]

Juju!!! That was a KILLER pass by Rudolph, too! Well done!!!!

[mcmillenandwife]

That was sweet! Way to keep fighting. Damn fine pass.

[Chucktownsteeler]

Tomlin setting the standard yet again.  We burn a time out.  Our boys have no football sense whatsoever.

We play checkers, the NFL plays chess.

[Chucktownsteeler]

Fucking finally a Ju-Ju sighting.

[steelerkraut]

an offensive TD! Now there's a shock!!

[Chucktownsteeler]

Hopefully that gets the offense out of its funk. I wish we had a RB.
