As fans, how do we get ready for PBurgh. Or do we have some NFL players in this thread

Fields is much harder to tackle than Mayfield.

Fourth or fifth year in a row where watching the Steelers lose is my only Sunday joy. Thank God I’m a bitter jealous person or I’d get no joy on Sunday.

This just says a lot about the offense.

First pick he didn't see the backer, second he misread the coverage as man, and the third he got hit during the release and had it tipped.  He continued to stand tall in the pocket, not happy feet and bailing immediately.  I think that is the opposite of spooked.

Wouldn't you misread sht with that oline?

Good news: We're still in 1st place

We have to prepare for Faker mayfield, got sacked, left arm limp/dead, goes out of game, comes back and goes 10/10 and left arm fine. Mr. Miyagi back in lockerroom

As fans we drink to numb the pain

My takes, OLine is still garbage, the whole offense is flat, no drive nothing. D played good but they should it’s Andy and a rookie. Could have changed the game by falling on the fumble instead of trying to scoop it up. Still couldn’t make the tackle on fields to put us in position to win the game as crazy as that sounds.

The play calling was horrible. If Joe’s not ready why is he on the field. Still think Mixon could do more, no explosive runs, vision is questionable. Hopefully this will be Burrows worst game.

Exactly!!! At the very worst, even if Baltimore beats KC tonight (doubtful) the Division is all tied up at 1-1.

They started the season with a not great looking defense that got beat up by the rams, and they were happy to have AD as QB.

That’s what Zac is telling Mike, who may or may not be aware the season has started

Strange to talk and hear of the mighty AFC North all offseason and see the Raiders of all teams open 2-0 vs Pit and Baltimore.  Can we slay the mighty Derek Carr?

Probably.  Have to make a quick decision behind those guys.  But misreading the coverage and being spooked are not the same.

[BacknDaDey]

The city of Cincinnati and surrounding areas deserves more than Zac Taylor as coach for the Bengals. The play calling was pathetic. Fans deserve more. I think Taylor is too much of a player's coach. Players need to be held accountable. He needs to hold himself accountable.

How is anyone blaming the D at all. Didnt give up a td after 3 straight burrow ints. Wilson missed the scoop unfortunately, but that was still a net positive play, and he got an int. D kept us in the game and they had a lot to overcome.

Honestly that first one I don't really blame Joe. That LB made a hell of a play. 99 times out of 100 he doesn't even touch that ball let alone make the catch after bobbling the ball.

JuJu hurt on the final and meaningless play of the game. Tomlin just walks away.
