Steelers Ravens game thread

300+ yards for the Ravens, 60 for the Steelers. They should charge admission for the post game call in show. This is utterly embarrassing. But Tomlin will be back!
They are the poster child of a stale, tired organization. Based on what has happened for the better part of the last decade, including this current embarrassment, there is no way that the current head coach still should be the head coach; he’s been the head coach since 2007 and that’s been more than long enough. No Super Bowl since 2010, no playoff win since 2016, no division title since 2020, a litany of unlikeable malcontents, etc.

Cold consolation but it's all I've got: Ohio State losing to Texas

Oh, I know. I've been coming here for years, and always try to respectful of the fact that I'm visiting someone else's house and not argue with members here. I just have no tolerance for anyone who has no knowledge about a situation claiming they know everything and spreading lies and completely debunked stories.
My apologies to other members here if I overstepped my bounds.
You are debating with some one that has posting privileges at his mental hospital.

This game is like a September PSU game.; that’s how uncompetitive it is. The Steelers really have no business in the playoffs right now because they’ve devolved into a pretty bad and feckless team. How do you not go for it on that last fourth down? Lately, my favorite thing about a Steelers game are the post game call in shows.

James Franklin has again been exposed and it's getting boring.

Some criticism doesn't bug me, but I remember a lot of down years with Joe Paterno. I remember when Joe couldn't win the big game, or Penn State was criticized somehow for having a crappy schedule. That changed in 1982 when they beat Georgia, if you look at it back then if they had instant replay we would've been a two lost team. Of course if we had playoff back then I'm thinking his 1981 and 1982 team could well have been national champs.

After watching three years off Allar I'm starting to speculate that he might not have to make up to be a quarterback at the highest level with stiff competition. Others can point out how our receivers aren't subpar, but I do recall back in the day less skilled receivers at Penn State getting open.

Drew Astorino can't be much better than these guys, can he? What about Parker Washington? I don't even know if he's in the pros now.

However I will say that he has throw some very good balls. That might be a Fowler criticism, instead of just saying Franklin sucks and can't win a big one. Potentially Franklin is doing the best with what he has at the moment. I also noticed that the coaching is one to national championships recently Has I believe three losses this year? Bama has 4.

Basically no one win every game, and I'm honestly very frustrated because a few more completions probably would've put us in a national championship game against an Ohio State team that I believe is vulnerable.

Franklin was one of the last four standing with obvious deficiencies in personnel..
You remember when Joe could not win the big game and cite 1982 as the breakthrough?

You really know nothing about Joe or Penn State football. And I mean next to nothing.

Check the web, buy a book, something…but you are embarrassing yourself.

Was Penn State elite this year?

NOPE. Tomlin rode Cowher's rosters and coattails. He took over in 2007 with Cowher's players. They won the SB (with Roethlisberger) in 2009, and lost in 2011. He (and the franchise) hasn't come close since.

Did you think the same of golden boy wonder Jon Gruden when he rode the coattails of Tony Dungy and won a Super Bowl with a roster built by Tony Dungy? Just curious.

FB Recruiting Penn State adds Michigan Transfer Defensive Tackle Owen Wafle

Could be lots of reasons--too far from home, didn't like it there, they didn't find the NIL money he wanted...
hell it could be as stupid as he has a girlfriend that he wants to be closer to--kids make crazy decisions
Or maybe he's not good--we'll find out. He's just depth though with Durant coming back
Thought I read that Michigan got 2 DTs via the portal.

OSU Sawyer Strip Sack TD. Does PSU make that play?

Agreed with the first half of this post....not the second half. The kids have not magically stopped making mistakes because they are paid....how would you explain the Cleveland Browns. Of course we can make that play we had a number of strip sacks.....sometimes the ball bounces to you, sometimes it does not. Why can Sawyer not make that play against Michigan??
Sawyer had a big time game against Michigan including an interception in the end zone at a crucial time of the game.
