To be fair. I don’t think Osborn gave up on the slant, he appeared to stumble or got his feet tangled up w/ the defender.
Maybe but that is a timing route and he has to be there. Kirk has to pull it down if it isn’t there though. I will knock him for that. The tipped ball is a tipped ball. Not much can be done about that.

QB 14-31 and two picks doesn't help, never seen him so inaccurate, missed so many wide open WRs. The key stat of the game is how many times did Jefferson touch the ball in the 2nd half
The ine int was tipped and went off Justins hands. The other one Osborne gave up on his route. I’d give the steelers the 14 off those picks but even still. Offense put up 36 points.
I think that we gamble when we get conservative with the ball and here is why. When we go run run pass. It takes the ball out of the QB’s hands. Then when we have to go back to it the rhythm is all off. The playcalling was good in the first half. Some of the best I have seen all year. There was even some creativity. And then we got boring again. Until we had to get something going. Cousins threw some ugly ass passes. But he nailed some too.
So that stop and go offense seems to take us out of games more than put us further ahead. And then the defense gets soft trying to milk the clock rather than stay aggressive.
We have lost more of these games thanwe have won and some of those losses the offense has been in position to win but a missed kick or a fumble has resulted in it not going our way. To me this has to come down to coaching. we keep doing the same things and seeing the same results.
No excuse for either pick, so sick of him getting a pass on everything he does. The pass to Jefferson was a bad pass, it was floated like he was doing all night, leaving JJ out to dry. With the lead they had, there is no way you make that throw to Osborne, you are not taking a chance on a throw unless your WR is open, just awful decisions all night and his passing were consistently way off. Pitt never would have had any time on the clock if he was milking the play clock down like he should have been in the 2nd half.
Wait. You're sick of Cousin's getting a pass on everything?

As both picks had REASONS, those aren't the same as excuses. What's hilarious is that if our QBs play too safe, they get crucified for not taking more chances...but chances mean potential consequences, meaning crucifixion....
I watched the game with Ed mcdaniel and Tommy Kramer tonight. Was interesting..

Further proof of the multiverse.

So be agressive. Go for it. Abandon the run, run, pass but sure as shit dont make a mistake. Is Cousins the red headed step child in your world?
Tonight marked the 1,616th time in history that an NFL team fell behind by 29+ points in a regular-season game (none came back to win).
The @steelers are the only one out of the 1,616 that had the ball on offense with a chance to tie or win on the game's final play.
It's been shit like this all year.
ALL. FREAKING. YEAR.
Beat the #1 seed, lose to a winless team.

There's something admirable about your dogged determination to continually post absolutely moronic takes on football. Your ignorance is breathtaking.

Coach leads, players follow. He's been in over his head the whole 8 years.
Pittsburgh adjusted at halftime and the momentum shifted. They struggle to finish games. Crazy roller coaster from week to week.
