Game Thread - Week 10 vs Lions / No Ben Game Thread -----------

[Cali-Steeler]

I smell turn overs

[mcmillenandwife]

We won the last 4 DESPITE the coaching.    Look at the threads - we say over and over again "We winning because they players are showing heart"

Agreed 100%.

I smell turn overs

Hope you're right, Cali.  We need it.

[Cali-Steeler]

Watt down... this doesn't look good

[RaynorShyne]

"The defense has no sacks"

No shit, Sherlock - they've thrown 8 times.

9th drop back we get the sack.
..and TJ is down.

FANTASTIC

[mcmillenandwife]

There we go! A TJ sighting!

But, oh $#!t... TJ is down.

[Cali-Steeler]

Safety coming up

[mcmillenandwife]

False start. 3rd and 20 coming up.

[bbbooger]

…

We are being badly outcoached right now. Need to get it fixed.

Third game in the last 4 where the opposing coach makes an adjustment and Tomlin has no answer…

Hard to argue with your assessment... even though we did win the last 4.

We won the last 4 DESPITE the coaching.    Look at the threads - we say over and over again "We winning because they players are showing heart"

Every big play was individual effort.    Bad defense on the opponents part.  We DO NOT win by design.

3rd and 4, we throw a fucking bomb.  

Ray-Ray McCloud 8 catches on 10 targets - 57 yards.   Never had more than 3 in his career.   This is a Ray-Ray McCloud Career Game.  Yay.

Najee should have 200 yards rushing.

Raynor beat me to it: despite….

[mcmillenandwife]

Safety coming up

That would be awesome.

[RaynorShyne]

Credit to Bush - good open-field tackle

[mcmillenandwife]

Important stand there. We should get decent field position here.

[RaynorShyne]

Please, Heavenly Father - get and Angel to smack the shit out of our Offensive coordinator and let him HAND THE BALL OFF

[mcmillenandwife]

Nice, patient run there by Najee.

Followed by a strong run to pick up the first.

[RaynorShyne]

Good time for a screen (which we never run so we won't)

Oh! Goodie! Throw out of bounds!!!!

[mcmillenandwife]

Our receivers are awful. Can't get open without pushing off, can't make catches in traffic.

Suggestion: If you're going to throw, throw to Freiermuth.

[bbbooger]

Another long pass on third and five

[mcmillenandwife]

Najee is awesome. Great effort on a lame call.

[RaynorShyne]

Maybe the Wizard of Boz will bestow a tie to us.

Najee is a beast. Imagine if we ran it instead of throwing it out of bounds

[mcmillenandwife]

Boswell is have a FREAKY good season! WOW! 50+ yard FGs at Heinz Field are TOUGH.

[RaynorShyne]

Our receivers are awful. Can't get open without pushing off, can't make catches in traffic.

Suggestion: If you're going to throw, throw to Freiermuth.

Well, we do have the double shift, optional motion, pump-fake to the slot, run around - nobody open, throw it to 88 because we thought he was a wideout, play

[mcmillenandwife]

Maybe the Wizard of Boz will bestow a tie to us.

Najee is a beast.  Imagine if we ran it instead of throwing it out of bounds

Yet also 

[mcmillenandwife]

Okay, defense... thank you for setting us up with great field position to set up the tying FG.

Now get the ball back of us again.

[RaynorShyne]

Canada is one ONE guy in the NFL who can stop Derek Henry.

We'd hold him to 500 yards a season - if he was our RB

[RaynorShyne]

Whoa, whoa, whoa - we put 8 in the box and Bush got a tackle.....

[mcmillenandwife]

Okay... 3rd and 10. Let's stop 'em!!!

[mcmillenandwife]

Interesting. Defense baited that throw. Good job.

[mcmillenandwife]

Wonder if they'll go for it after running into the kicker?

Killibrew... used to play for the Lions, right? Traitor! LOL

[Cali-Steeler]

Shit...

[RaynorShyne]

Wow - all of a sudden, I don't feel bad about the officiating in the Bears game anymore
