Quote:Roethlisberger is gonna light are secondary up man. I don't see it
Well they did just lose today to the lowly Bucs in Pittsburgh... you never know.
Quote:At least as a team we made it a game for nearly 3 quarters and only lost by 2 scores(kinda). Bortles looked really good but if the defense cant stop anyone you lose. Bortles could throw for 4 tds a game and still lose 28-30+. I dont understand how this defense is struggling. Defensive minded coach and this was supposed to be our strength.
The coaches quit before halftime when they squandered a chance at at least a field goal. Bortles has :55 and they went pansy on the play-calling.
Bortles just looks like he has nothing to work with on offense. Not the other way around. Hopefully with Ace and Lee on the field that will change. Defense never really kept us in it either so we've had to play rather desperate.
Quote:Seriously? He's the only player worth a crap on this team
I think Allen Robinson could be ok but overall the talent is pitiful.
0-4 Where are all those people that said we'll be 8-8 or 9-7 this year... come out come out where ever you are....
I'm beginning to be concerned about halftime adjustments from our coaching staff. Two games now we've looked good just to fail hard in the second half... What's with this staff?

One could make a strong case that our coaching staff is terrible
Well this hurts our playoff chances...

Are you taking a break from talking trash about people who just died?
Regardless of who has been playing qb, the offense keeps falling flat in the second half. Playcalling is real bad. Cant run EVERY time on 3rd/4th and 1

I think the majority of this board picked 5 or 6 wins. Which is still doable BTW.
The D gave up less than 40...progress
Poor Fisch has not a experienced offensive weapon.
It's like the coaches half time adjustments that are made are actually made to hurt not help the team

I have little doubt it is
If we win more than 3 games this year I'll be surprised. It will be fun watching Bortles develop though. ...
Bob Babich needs to be fired; Cecil Shorts should be cut and sign Kerry Taylor. At least that guy has enough heart to play hurt; I could understand if it was a concussion but other players throughout the league play week in and week out with hamstring "tightness" or strains.

Has the team showed up prepared for games or look caught off guard by what other team run? Are players improving? Is there a high number of mental errors (blown coverages)?
So far, I'd say it's safe to question the staff. How are other NFL teams ready to begin the season yet our team continues to use excuses? Other teams come out ready to play in games and they make in game adjustments. We are always exposed as inferior in every game.
