Anacybele Posted December 3, 2016 Share Posted December 3, 2016 Well yeah, I can't deny that they're really good this season, but I still think they get away with too much bullcrap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anacybele Posted December 6, 2016 Share Posted December 6, 2016 (edited) Wow, finally someone shuts him down more. I don't like the Saints much. Also, I'm glad to see our new kicker has worked out better than fricken Josh Scobee did. Bullock actually hasn't missed yet and he kicked two FGs and two PATs vs the Giants. Also, Bell is the first and only RB to rush for 100+ yards vs the Giants this year so far. I also think Tomlin outcoached McAdoo in like everything. Keep improving, Mikey. :D This team just needs to figure out how to do this stuff against the Ravens. They're still the only team we've struggled a lot with in the past few seasons. >_> And they play them on Christmas this year, I don't want my Christmas ruined by yet another loss to those Ratbirds! :( EDIT: Also, first round of playoff clinching and elimination info from NFL.com is now available: NFC CLINCHED: Dallas -- playoff berth ELIMINATED: San Francisco DALLAS COWBOYSDallas clinches division title:1) DAL winDallas clinches a first-round bye:1) DAL win + DET loss or tie2) DAL win + SEA lossDallas clinches homefield advantage throughout NFC playoffs:1) DAL win + DET loss or tie + SEA loss SEATTLE SEAHAWKSSeattle clinches division title:1) SEA win + ARI loss or tie2) SEA tie + ARI loss AFC CLINCHED: NoneELIMINATED: Cleveland, Jacksonville (sorry, Cynthia. :(), NY Jets NEW ENGLAND PATRIOTSNew England clinches division title:1) NE win + MIA loss or tie2) NE tie + MIA lossNew England clinches a first-round bye:1) NE win + MIA loss or tie + PIT loss or tie OAKLAND RAIDERSOakland clinches a playoff berth:1) OAK win + MIA loss or tie2) OAK win + DEN loss3) OAK tie + MIA loss + BAL loss or tie4) OAK tie + MIA loss + PIT loss or tie Edited December 6, 2016 by Anacybele Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anacybele Posted December 6, 2016 Share Posted December 6, 2016 (edited) Hey, he didn't miss and it's not like the Steelers lost or that Boswell's out for the season. In fact, Tomlin said Boswell will kick this weekend if he's healthy enough. Bullock's nowhere near permanent. I will admit that he's not as good as Boswell though. Even though he didn't miss vs the Giants, he ALMOST did once on a lucky shot that bounced off the goal pipe and into the good zone.

chococoke Posted December 9, 2016 Share Posted December 9, 2016 Monday night's game should be interesting. Our pass defense has been sketchy this year, and hasn't been stellar even against awful offensive teams (aside from the Goff-led Rams) Wouldn't be shocked to see the pass-heavy game plans from both teams. I'm also curious to see if the offensive line can protect Brady competently the entire game. I have my doubts about that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Raven Posted December 9, 2016 Author Share Posted December 9, 2016 How's your pass coverage? We preyed on the Dolphins across the middle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have my doubts about that They better protect Brady, I need your Patriots to come through right now, as much as I don't like them... I like the Ravens less. >_< I know the Pats have struggled against them in the past, but they still managed to win, so I know they can do it. They've played well without Gronk too, so they can keep playing well without Gronk. So plz halp Pats, if you win and the Steelers win, we'll be on top of the North again...

chococoke Posted December 9, 2016 Share Posted December 9, 2016 The coverage has been inconsistent. Malcolm Butler has had another solid year and Logan Ryan has improved. The LBs have struggled mightily in coverage, especially since Collins was traded. Pat Chung has actually had an excellent year covering TEs, and I expect him to be 1v1 with Pitta for a majority of the game. The nickel corner spot has been the biggest issue, as the revolving door of CBs that have occupied that role have all battled some mix of injury and poor play. The Pats like to use a "big nickel" formation where the 5th defensive back is an extra deep safety and McCourty and/or Chung move into man coverage roles. I'm not 100% sure how they'll try to match up against Bmore's offensive skill players. I wouldn't be surprised to see Butler cover Steve Smith 1 on 1 and Mike Wallace see some double teams Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Raven Posted December 10, 2016 Author Share Posted December 10, 2016 From what it sounds like it's a resounding "no idea," since that seems like the same issue as the Dolphins had against us - without the pass rush we managed to somehow mitigate.

Anacybele Posted December 10, 2016 Share Posted December 10, 2016 I wouldn't get too scared of the Ravens offense yet. Yes, they had a rather explosive showing against the Dolphins, but that's pretty much the only game this year where their offense looked good. If they keep playing like that, then we've got something to be afraid of... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Raven Posted December 10, 2016 Author Share Posted December 10, 2016 We looked good against the Raiders and Browns... ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anacybele Posted December 10, 2016 Share Posted December 10, 2016 (edited) The Raiders just laid an egg though, and the Browns are the Browns, dude. I don't even find the Steelers winning over them to be anything special. xP The Raiders are a good team, but they also seem to be rather inconsistent, is what I mean.

Anacybele Posted December 10, 2016 Share Posted December 10, 2016 (edited) A team's record doesn't necessarily reflect a their overall performance or how good they are, Raven. I'd think you would know that better than anyone here given the Ravens' season last year. I also wasn't saying wildly inconsistent or anything, just somewhat. Steelers and Bills will be on TV here, yesssh. Sorry I have to cheer against your Bills, Life, but the Steelers are my boys, man. :P Edited December 10, 2016 by Anacybele Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Raven Posted December 10, 2016 Author Share Posted December 10, 2016 (edited) They're still pretty consistent about having a great offense (there's a reason Carr is a leading MVP candidate) and closing out games. And Khalil Mack is a pretty fucking spectacular pass rusher. They had one shitty game. Whatever. The 2010 Pats has 4 interceptions all season and they were in two games, and Brady was still unanimous MVP. That's hardly a reason to call the 2010 Pats inconsistent, because they were pretty fucking consistent. EDIT: For more details, the Raiders lost in a shootout against the Falcons and they were shut down by the Chiefs twice. That's hardly inconsistent.

chococoke Posted December 11, 2016 Share Posted December 11, 2016 Oh, I'll always opt for "no idea" when trying to guess our gameplan. I'll especially opt for that when trying to guess the outcome of this game. I'm certainly not underestimating the Ravens offense. Our pass rush has taken large chunks of the season off so far so that match up will definitely be key Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
