NFL 2016-17 playoffs running thread

Antonio Brown -- Hall of Famer?

 

He's punched, what, three of his teammates?

My favorite part is him telling the kid at the end, "That's how you break it up." Really Steve? How would you know?

 

Big Ben completing 100 percent of passes, but for only 23 yards per attempt. If he doesn't pick up the pace, I don't see how the Steelers win this.

 

He's lucky

 

I know. Hopefully, he does better the rest of the way.

 

Explains the lack of oop posts.

 

Ugh. Terrible job by Gay on that deep ball. He was right there and failed to make a play on it. Can't give up plays like that on a third-and-13.

So far, the Steelers have looked a lot better against the run, but it's early.

 

Or not.

 

If you don't have a front-line quarterback available for a NFL playoff game, they should just send you home and show NCIS reruns for three hours. There's no point to showing up.

 

Interesting choice by the Steelers. They tore through the Dolphins with spread formations on the first two drives, then go with an extra tackle and two tight ends. I expected to see a lot of it today against Miami's 30th-ranked run defense and Bell is making it work so far on this drive.

That is pretty amazing. They have 219 yards of offense at the end of the first quarter.

 

Apparently if you see Miami flailing while trying to tackle why not go power run.

 

All of their touchdowns have been from at least 26 yards. I am worried about the red-zone offense.
