Official Game Day Thread: 2021: Week 5 Broncos vs Steelers

[fraguela09]

Teddy B wasn’t the problem today…. It’s the OL and the secondary (indictment on Payton); and both the offense and defense horribly coached (indictment on Fangio and PS).

2 stupid flags turned 3 into 7 for PIT and 7 into 3 for DEN. Went for 2-point conversion. That’s 9 points DEN bungled away…

Not overly disappointed because I’m happy for Mike Tomlin. He takes a lot a crap for a coach who has yet to have a losing season and usually makes the playoffs. Maybe things are heading in a positive direction for the Steelers now.

As for the Broncos, it’s no surprise that they lost. At least they started to figure things out to make it interesting in the fourth quarter.

They probably could have gotten the same thing from Lock, if he had been named the starter at the end of preseason.

Well Lock didn’t win the starting job and was a disaster in relief last Sunday. Not starting him over a QB who had a concussion says a lot about how much they don’t trust him to perform.

Teddy threw a pick to close the game.

Fields threw an accurate pass for a TD to close the game.

For years, this team seems to have zero urgency and passion until they're trying to catch up in the 4th. Makes no sense unless the players truly lack passion or the coaches lack ability. I'll go with the coach angle.

to me its not lack urgency n passion its coaching and not enough good players esp. at QB in todays league you need high quality play there to win consistently which we have not had since peyton...and the results show it we have what 10 different guys start...

That was just sad to watch. Should have been ahead in the first half

penalties by Williams and Jones caused an 8 point swing in output and guess what we lost by 8 points

no moral victories. We sucked most of the game. This team needs to dig really deep or pack it up for the season.

slow starts and meager offense in beginning of games will consistently lose games and that is where we are

Hey look on the brightside we got a shutdown corner with the 9th pick. Lol

[Ear2dastreets]

Gonna start campaigning for Brian Daboll.

We don't have a Daboll qb.

[Ear2dastreets]

That's a very pedestrian stat line for today's NFL.

That is soooooo not true.....I can't believe you just said that.

Just a bad team finding ways to lose.

Yeah, so many unnecessary mistakes when your modus operandi is meant to be fault-free football.

Personal Foul on PIt FG turns 3 into 7. Williams spikes ball after a long tun, turns 7 into 3. That’s 8 points right there.

And… if we kick extra point instead of going for 2….

thats 9 points swing and a win

going for 2 was the right call would cut it to a 3 point game 24-21

von covering claypool in the slot lead to fullers PI call on 3rd down lead to TD instead of a fg that is 4 more points

[bronco30]

no coaches explanation will ever convince me that it was good to have von in space let alone covering any slot wr just flat out stupid call on defense
