Tough game but we did just enough to win! Love it

When the team was 4 and 8, there were posters very authoritatively saying Zac had lost the team and it was clear the locker room was imploding and the team had given up. Hopefully, this will be end of such statements.

Shame it's going to be a waiting game. Win against NE and tonight wraps up the #7 seed. What could have been. Anyway, fingers crossed for tomorrow. Even if it doesn't work out we beat the Stealers in front of their shit fans, and that's always a good thing.

Buck gave Anorumo credit for the turnaround
he's staying most likely

Not to mention our Defense played it's best game of the year!

I disagree. best defensive game came against the raiders lol
steelers kept shooting themselves in the foot

How does anyone think that shapes up for next year? Tee and Trey wanting the pay day and our drafting always seems to be suspect beyond Top 5. Do we get better?

Not a lot of talent on the defense outside of Hendrickson, as Aikman made the point.
I would say that you were early and consistently on the Volson is lousy train; too bad the coaches didn't address that earlier. It was embarrassing to see him bulldozed into the backfield.

In the end, likely come up short. I know we drop a few draft spots, but this team never quit. That should carry over to 2025.
Our weaknesses are glaring. FO needs to have a great off season.
Congrats to Zac and team for a winning season. Cross our fingers and hope Jets and Chiefs win tomorrow.

That Steelers loss looked like giving up to me, at least on D. If I said something along those lines at the time, I will own it.
But since? You are completely right. There have been fits & starts & blunders. But no quit.

I was starting to think he may stay with the better play albeit against worse competition down the stretch. I do remember Zac wanted that Allen from the Saints his first year which i thought was odd and delusional but he his available now I believe.
RE: 5 straight wins.... 9-8 season - Destro - 01-05-2025
Superstars kept us in the race. Defense is why we got this desperate throughout the year and the team starting like garbage every single year set it up. Time to have the stars align.

of course it was worse competition down the stretch

I think we confused Wilson and held their running game in check tonight against a playoff team.
To answer your other question, no, I hope they give Lou his walking papers.
RE: 5 straight wins.... 9-8 season - Nate (formerly eliminate08) - 01-05-2025
Was a great game to watch with our Defense actually tackling well for the most part.
We will see if this enough after such a terrible start to the season which we cannot have anymore.
If we make the Playoffs somehow, we will need this Defense to be shutdown in order to keep Lou and we will need to win the SB because
of him. Highly doubt this is the case but would love it if it happened. BTW, shout out to Cody Ford who played alright and showed great heart
against Twatt and the stealers pass rushers. Either way we need a new OL coach and a new IOL for the most part.
Khalil Herbert is a good tough running back that we need to bring back.
Joe, Ja'Marr and Trey had a great season. Great players to start with even if Trey won't last forever I think he earned an extension.
