Official Week 1 Steelers Game Thread. It's GO TIME!

This game could be bigger than you think. Watching the Browns Panthers as well and the Stains look decent! Cant afford to be one game back on the AFCN after today.

This is their 1st preseason game and it shows. How fucking horrible have we looked?

3 INTs and a fumble. Burrow looks horrible.

It's going to take more then half-time adjustments to over come an entire off-season of rust and I'll health.

This is the worst half I've seen from Joe Burrow.

Two unforced errors on plays where he tried to force the ball down the field and got picked off. That's the worst mistake you can make.

Seems to me there is a lot of poor decisions right now by Burrow and the play calling. Get Burrow moving and lets start burning up the sidelines for a bit. Too many big play attempts.

So Steelers get away with another illegal hit to take out a Bengals WR.

Right!

Well, we're still in it. Thats about the only good thing I saw in the last 90 minutes or so.

As horribly as they've played they're lucky to only be down by 11 at the half.

It's difficult to see how any half-time adjustments are going to alleviate all this rust and lack of cohesion....

[Bengals1]

To absolutely no one's surprise....

Tee Higgins has been declared out with a concussion. A devastating blow to a Bengals team down 11 points.

And there goes another drive wasted.

Not really keen on the play calling here. Lets get some play action outside and open up the middle for Hurst and Mixon.
