Agree. So far he:
1) Passed up on Leonard Williams to get Scherff, which seems like the wrong move at least right now. Williams could have sealed a big hole in the D and Scherff hasn't shown All-Pro talent yet at guard.

2) Passed up on a bunch of Dline talent in draft again this year for WR, hybrid LB, 3rd CB. This may work out but seemed to have hurt us so far.

3) Neglected to sign any big FA on Dline.


Love Scotty McC, but our lack of Dline is what crippled us this game, and will kill us all year. to have a 34yo 2nd string RB run for >140 yards is embarassing.

They should consider signing Knighton back. Yeah he wasn't great, but he could push the inside. Baker did squat tonight.

I think Lich is a bigger liability though.

This was the first thing that popped into my head watching the D-line getting manhandled tonight. Why did we pass on Big Cat!!??

Deep breaths everyone. Its week one.

Cmon guys, what were you expecting? Pittsburgh is one of the best teams in the league, clearly a tier above us

I bet we'll look a lot better next week against Dallas

I was hoping that the team would not take a big dump like they did. Wasn't expecting a win, but that loss was just horrible.

You mean Dallas with the top notch O-line, a solid RB core, Dez and a budding young QB?

Dallas coaches will not be able to adjust like Pitts' did tonight, their defense is also crap as usual and we will be able to run as well as pass. We'll take em

I do agree that Dallas defense is not nearly as good as the Steelers but our defense (the d-line) is terrible. I have no faith in them stopping the run game.

Game ball goes to the fans that wasted money on this shit show. You guys are the real MVPs because that was terrible. Future tip: Don't buy tickets to home openers.

So, Pot Roast, Sullivan and Hillman (or other players like these) or stick it out?

Our receiving corp is being wasted with no running game to keep defenses honest.
Our defensive backfield is being wasted with no pash rush to keep offenses honest.

They're not going to sign any of these people because that'd be the smart thing to do and Gruden is a vegetable.

I vote, they'll stick it out.

I cant figure out which one I'm the most embarrassed about.....

Poor tackling
Offensive Penalties
D getting lined up late
Absent running game
Kerrigan getting kicked out play after play after play
The look of an unprepared team
Special teams looking special ed.

[FWD Skins]

Kicking was good!
