perfect spot for us to go in and steal a game.

Re: PIT v WFT Pregame Thread
 

[quote=Chief X_Phackter;1266562]I agree with your keys. I am ok with Turner getting pass happy if that means short quick passes - as an extension of the running game.

I foresee a lot of pre-snap motion, misdirection, A Smith getting the ball out of his hands quickly and allowing JD, Antonio, Scary Terry, Sims, etc. make big plays. Give Pit a lot of different looks and things to think about.

I also hope they incorporate Logan Thomas a little more. I wouldn't mind seeing him under center a couple times, executing the run-pass option.[/quote]

The number one thing is, be prepared and not be in an 11 day off stupor that has plagued this team many times in the past.

True, they did not come out of that bye week with any intensity at all, losing to the Giants - a game they should have definitely won.

If we beat Pittsburgh, I'm going streaking (with just a mask on).

Re: PIT v WFT Pregame Thread
 

Pittsburgh is not a GREAT team however, their identity right now is what the WFT should be striving for...all around solid play from defense and special teams, and offensively sound with balance from the run and passing game, which all stems from good coaching. Also, is there a better team over the last 15 years at drafting wide receivers??
Pitt-27
WFT - 17

Key to winning the game: Covid-19

This will be a bloodbath.
Dwayne Haskins takes over at half time.

I liked how Ron finished up his presser today:

"I really am looking forward to obviously getting through this year, and hopefully finishing up some point in February..."

Re: PIT v WFT Pregame Thread
 

We are just the team to offer a trap to Pitt. If the D play as well as they did against Dallas then I feel its ours to lose, but the O can't make mistakes. and we have to take a chance downfield. If there's any weakness in their D it's there. I'm not too scared of their O but they have good WR's as Redskins247 noted, so we have to play tight pass D in the deep make pressure pay up front. Their run O even if Conner plays, isn't scary, but we know it's a bit of a weakness on our D.

The Ravens pretty much ran out of steam allowing them to run out the clock last night, but the Steelers barely crawled over the line in the end. That last drive to chew the clock looked a bit desperate; passing on early downs with the lead and just 2:30 on the clock, even if it was mainly to the flat? No trust in their run game. Force them to pass, where our strength lies, and chew up the clock on O to keep Big Ben off the field.

Do all that and I'd go 20-19 WFT.

You do that and I'll be happy twice over. We'll have won and I'm not on the same continent as you :)

Curl and Reaves stepping up, have made a difference in our defense improving, I hope they keep it up.

Good read. If we somehow beat them it's going to raise a lot of eyebrows around the league for sure.

Re: PIT v WFT Pregame Thread
 

Word is that the Steelers are mad at themselves for not playing good last game, that doesn't bode well for us.. Steelers 27-WFT 14!

Word has it Washington knows and is going out to prove they can play with the big boys. Their days of being pussy doormats are over.

Good tape review. Curl has outplayed Collins at safety.
