MNF: Steelers vs Giants Game thread

[Direwolf63]

I think we tried to run 2 screens. They both got blown up.

Yeah.

When the Cowboys run a screen, we breath a sigh of relief it wasn't a pick 6.

When the opposition runs a screen, the receiver is all alone with half the field completely empty for them to run 20 yards or more.

Dak showed MVP-caliber play by his 13th career start (which Jones’ is tonite)?

lol.

Daks first 6 games he showed he had special talent. Jones is another bust like Darnold

 

[cowboyec]

I guess.
But what I really want is a SB win.

by that metric, they are in the same place. And nyg night very well be better positioned going forward.

we want the same thing.

Well everyone in DC can enjoy their 7 days in first this season.

14 days...since the FT has a division win they remain in 1st place no matter what happens next weekend lol...

 

[DandyDon52]

what is the score in giants game??

 

[aria]

lol chill bruh you either gonna say what the rankings will be or not.

Alright, I’ll make it as clear as I can. When the season is over, I suggest we use football outsiders rankings to determine who had the best run blocking line, whoever has the worst run blocking line wins.

$200. Deal?

Lighten up, Francis. Directed more to the people (not yourself) who think one just has to draft players and the problem is solved. Actually, maybe just laughing at the Giants spending so much capital on the OL and getting no results. Actually, I have no idea what my point is. Like some rock lyrics which make no sense but work.

Rock on ma man!

You speak my language.

More Jason Garrett brilliance.

I don't know who the Giants' head coach is but he better dump Garrett ASAP or he will be fired soon. That weasel Garrett has a way with words and is probably already plotting for the head coach job.

Garrett said he gave the Giants' new head coach no advice. I think Garrett lied. Sure looks like he gave plenty of advice.

We have not ran the screen pass well since the TD and Roger days.

this is entirely incorrect.

six games - even 12 games - in to dak’s rookie year he was a game manager considered to be romo’s caddy, and expected to give back the job when tony healed.

that team was all the OL and the running game/zeke. That’s why they couldn’t beat NYG (awesome run D) that year. And it’s why they won 13 games with a very average D (time of possession).

Go check the stats if you don’t believe me:

It hasn’t been run consistently but when they do it it does do well. Zeke has quite a few TDs off it.

Garrett is going to lay low for the year. He has to put every ounce of effort into getting the right side of that line to be close to average. I’m still envious of the scheme they used tonight. If it was with last years personnel it would have been lights out for the league.

A Chip Kelly esque speed to the line after every positive play. That would have worn defenses out. They did some Colts style no huddle last year where they get to the line and audible but Garrett was having them snap it quick tonight.

Note - he was hit in the backfield on all but two of his carries. It was all on the OL.

Zeke is excellent on screens.

zeke would have rushed for 100 yards, O lines don‘t matter.

@stilltheguru you still haven’t manned up to the bet big boy. Let’s do this! Man up, you talk a big game but I haven’t seen any action. I’ve already laid it all out there, it’s time you back it up.

Don’t you mean 1000? It was just the Steelers. No biggie.

That guy supposedly better than Zeke was outrushed by Roethlisberger
