Honesty, on that 4th down throw, that's the kind of spot where you want a big WR with a large catch radius, and Brown just isn't the type of player to make tough catches on off target throws.
Scobee sucks, and the Steelers never should have traded for him. The Jags, a team with more holes than the Titanic, spent a draft pick on a kicker so they could get rid of him. He used to be pretty good, but this move stinks of the Steeler FO going off of name recognition and not doing their homework.
I'm a little surprised that Brown isn't catching any flak for dropping that TD in the 1st half.
In the first half the Steelers did exactly what everyone thought they should...and it worked.
Rolled Vick out. Kept him to working half the field. Used both RB's. Mixed in a few deeper shots to keep the D honest.
Then they got the lead and stopped every one of those things in order to "not lose".
That worked out GREAT!
But lets blame the kicker. Its easier.
