Fields MVP!!

[DelPen]

At least the Steelers are on in Columbus while I’m here this weekend as they are blacked out AGAIN in Charlotte. Great opening drive, Wilson could had easily ran to the marker but throws it downfield and out of bounds with an open Williams.

[Admin]

Lineman needs to duck there.

[Daniel]

I hate that uncovered penalty. How is Jefferson between 6” back help the Steelers? Why is that even a penalty? Just stupid.

[Admin]

You would think the players would know the rule dumb or not…

I agree, both are true. Totally Jefferson’s fault.

Also, forgot Kazee was still on the team, haven’t heard his name all year.

[DelPen]

If Wilson gets outplayed by Winston twice in one season he is not the guy.

[Daniel]

That was a horrible intentional grounding call. He had 2 receivers close enough. If they’re going to start calling throw away passes intentional grounded, they need to do it uniformly. I’ve never seen that called before.

[Admin]

Another slow start from Wilson. At least the field looks nice…

[Daniel]

The Browns have better defensive coaching and the Steelers pretty much play preventive defense for an entire game. I think that’s why Winston looks better.

[DelPen]

Really stupid choice by Highsmith. Ball was way gone.

[DelPen]

Have to disagree with Romo, Pickens isn’t catching these balls Wilson is heaving out of bounds today. Pickens has a chance to make an insane play to get a catch, these guys are not even given a chance to make a great play.

Until they slow down the Browns pass rush, the WR lineup doesn’t matter. They might need a jet sweep to keep them off guard.

Okay maybe not, but WR screen with blockers in front out to at least get positive yards.

[Daniel]

Wait, why wasn’t that intentional grounding? It was way over the head of the receiver.

[Daniel]

Another one. In the pocket, throws the ball out of bounds way over the head of the WR, no intentional grounding. The refs set the rules and now they aren’t consistent.

It sucks that that more often than not, the Steelers play the opponent AND the ref.

I thought throws like that were going to be fine when Winston had his foot really close to touching the end zone when he just threw it away with no one close very similar to what they hit Wilson with. Consistency is always the problem in sports with poor officiating. At least with baseball 99% of the time the ump calls the balls and strikes the same the whole game even if you think he doesn’t know what a strike zone is, it’s at least fair to both sides. NHL and NFL change throughout the game and last time I checked for NBA they are even worse and favor people outright.

[DelPen]

So 16 seconds left and just need a 30 yard pass and run out of bounds for FG range and time to kick one. No reason to not try and put a ball that’s can only be caught while going out of bounds or needs DPI to defend it.

Does Tomlin gets bonus for unused TO’s at the end of the season.

[DelPen]

Porter is an idiot.

[DelPen]

I bit on the run too. Surprised Jefferson didn’t drop that.

[DelPen]

Bad call all around by Cleveland.

[DelPen]

It’s like Smith came to terms in August he was only going to have one WR all year and has no plays with 2 good ones at the same time. Williams could had been doing that more if they had the right plays to run.

[DelPen]

I was so ready for “there are fouls on both teams”

[DelPen]

Really bad coverage by Elliot on that TD.

[Daniel]

Why do they continue to run when it’s obvious to everyone they’re going to run.

[DelPen]

Can’t just run the clock out, need to do stupid things. That’s horrendous ball control.
