I'm about 45 minutes behind on this game. had to run some errands this morning and recorded it. it's currently 14-0 jax with about a minute left in the 1st quarter on my tv.
but, this play i just saw was so bad, i had to start a thread. maybe pitt has come back but that 4th and inches play where they pitch the ball to bell (who isn't the fastest guy in the world) so he catches it 7 yards behind the line of scrimmage against maybe the fastest and best defense in the league should get someone fired.
ok, i'll be back after i catch up. i'll assume that by the time i get currrent, the pitt owner has come onto the field and fired whomever called that play and pitt has made this a game.

still amazed at how bad that 4th down call was at such a key point. who knows what this score would be if they got a td on that drive, especially with fournette out, which would be huge if jax didn't have such a big lead.
otherwise, this game is going as expected in a few key areas. first and most obvious, jax was going to open up their offense muc more than they did against buffalo. people expecting to see the same jax offense as last week made an error.
second, pitt's offense has been erratic all season. not a huge surprise theya re struggling against such a good defense.
third, a good running game and defense can beat any team.
but, pitt has made two big plays and fournette is out so it's certainly not over yet. jax could still darn this up but hopefully the =7.5 is pretty safe.

So far 3/40 penalty against the jags. But the refs missed on the personal foul flag which helped out steelers big time. Can the refs just do the right thing?

pitt has so many options on 4th and short. the bets, of course, is to run bell, but you don't start him with a pitch 7 yards behind the line of scrimmage on a sweep against this defense. and then there is a qb sneak with your huge qb, or any number of the short pases that have been working very well today. didn't roethelisberger complete like 9 passes in a row in this game?
and now jax got aggressive with a deep pass which again, was going to be in the playbook this week but something they never were going to do against buffalo last week because they have to do that this week but clearly didn't last week.
big coaching mismatch in this game. jax won't be so lucky next week if they close this out.

As long as you have you-tubers posting vids of conspiracy for Pitt to win this years SB you get this horrible garbage coaching for Pitt throwing the game on 4th down pass plays.

these idiot announcers said it's worth it to look at the catch when they have no idea if the ball hit the ground. as if losing a timeout in a 3 point game in the fourth quarter means nothing.
