[quote=SunnySide;1267330]The offense in the first half was stagnant. 91 total yards and 2 first downs total prior to the FG drive. Subjective on whether we still win if we go into the half 0-14 but the offense was struggling.[/quote]

Both offenses were struggling - 9 punts and two turnovers on downs. Pitt managed to put together that one 14-play 70+ yard drive for a TD, and then had a quick one-play 50 yard score where Fuller and Everett both should have made the tackle.

To be expected losing your #1 RB on his second carry of the game.

Ive found nothing on Gibsons injury so far. RR in his post game last night said he hadnt talked to trainer yet. Doesnt RR normally do a 10:30 am zoom day after game? perhaps thats changed since this wasnt a Sunday 1 pm kickoff.

edit -- he did a 10:30 zoom, heres the youtube link

[url]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dQw4w9WgXcQ[/url]

edit - 8:51 min mark, RR is asked about Gibson but he says he intentionally doesnt speak w trainers until after the next day press conf so he doesnt have any info to give.

The edge rush trio of Chase young, Montez Sweat, and Ryan Kerrigan all finished with a grade above 80:

- Ryan Kerrigan: 90.8
- Montez Sweat: 88.8
- Chase Young: 80.7

Re: Best win in a long time against all odds post game thread
 

20 points in the second half against one of the best defenses in the NFL.

Outscored them 23-3 in the last 31 minutes.

Third win in the last 18 Monday night games.

2nd time in 81 games that Pitt lost a game after being up by at least 14 points.

Lot of fun stats from the game. RR said he was waiting for a big game to "deploy" the White on Whites.

Re: Best win in a long time against all odds post game thread
 

the only negative was those awful white on whites. they look like practice jerseys. put on the championship uniform please.

Re: Best win in a long time against all odds post game thread
 

I want to see CAM SIMS playing as the starter. He really stepped up and helped turn the second half around. This is the second game where he excelled. I want to see him start at WR #2. He’s earned it!

I want to see STEVE SIMS as the backup. He dropped a key pass, as usual. Dude is a bust! He’s sucking up oxygen that Cam Sims could be using.


Kevin Pierre-Louis had a piss poor play that made me yell at my tv. The WFT did a rare blitz on Roethlisburger and Pierre-Louis had a PERFECT UNBLOCKED shot at the Steelers QB. But he missed the tackle completely. WTF, over?? How do you miss a 38-year old 6’5 QB who has loss a step? Kevin had another play for a loss, but that miss was legendary!

Alex Smith led this team to an awesome come from behind victory against an ELITE TEAM in the NFL. However, the first half showed that this team needs to draft a QB with our FIRST draft pick in 2021. We need a young, fast and accurate QB for this team. The age of the immobile, pocket passer-type QB is over. Draft the best QB still left and let ALEX mentor him as he did Mahommes. Running QB just make it so much harder for teams to defend. We need one!

I didn't see the missed sack, but Big Ben has been sacked 0 times in the last 5 games so implying BB should be an easy target to sack, regardless of how clean the shot was, seems unrealistic to me.

Ha...I got mad as well, but shit man, Big Ben has done this for years. His greatest strength has been his pocket awareness and the ability to fight off tacklers while continuing to look downfield and get the ball out. He might have the best pocket awareness of any QB I’ve ever seen play the game. For as big as he it’s fun to watch.

That Steelers pass rush is amazing though

Makes sense. Holcomb is becoming a big time player for us. KPL had a big game, he looked good.

Folks Kam Curl needs to be on the field over any of our other safeties. He can cover the slot, provide run support and is a good tackler.

Yeah, I was pretty worried when he got hurt. It didn't look good and I didn't expect him to come back with the way he was moving around...then he did... Think he's going to be a good one.

One game at a time, one game at a time. The Redskins in the pre-Rivera era would blow a game like that against the 49ers. We MUST WIN. Also, we’ll be playing against Jason Reed and Williams at OT, who both want payback.

Build on the new players who have stepped up. Teams have seen how to largely silence our best players: MacLaurin and Young, just by double-teaming them. Expect that to happen all season, until clutch players like Thomas and Cam Sims make them pay!!

We have to keep winning to stay up with the Giants or have a hope of a wild card.

Dwayne Haskins as of lately has been doing the right things behind the scene. Rooting for his teammates, especially Smith. I could see Rivera giving him another chance.

CH seemed a little over his head as a rookie and that was to be expected. But things seemed to have slowed down for him. He has been outstanding. We finally got some dogs on defense.

He definitely has all the tools. He's a matchup problem for most defenses, and he can block.

Jordan Reed will get hurt this week. He's had too good of a run this season.

Re: Best win in a long time against all odds post game thread
 

He only has 200 receiving yards this year. He's a shell of his former self at this point, and still injury prone.

Re: Best win in a long time against all odds post game thread
 

This win really illustrates the difference between Gruden and Rivera. No way a Gruden coached team wins this game (or keeps it close).

We can lose to the 49ers or any other team. However, turning the corner to me is that I don't expect us to lose that game. And that is a huge difference from my normal feeling going into a game.

Still gonna be a good test. Cross-country flight. We win this one and I'm drinking all the koolaid.

Winning yesterday did feel like we threw a whole family of monkeys off our backs though.

Agreed, shout out to Del Rio for having a solid game plan and sticking to it.
I thought bringing pressure and rattling Ben was key to the game, but he trusted his guys and found a way.

One think I liked the most in this game is all they had to [B][U]overcome[/U][/B] :

- 3rd down drop by Stevens Sims JR early
- Sprinkle not recovering the muffed punt on the next play
- Horrendous spotting of the ball on Logan Thomas 3rd down play
- Inman missing the block on 4th down
- Fuller missing the tackle on the Steelers second TD right after that 5 play from the 1 yards line amazing stands

...

I'm sure I'm forgetting some, haven't re-watched the game yet, but what I know is this team was NOT overcoming that kind of start to a game under previous coaches.
