Throw your rants and anger in the comment section, just try to keep it PG-13. I’ll be tweeting throughout the game from my couch and joining in here. If the game gets out of hand, my tweets may be slurred, but it’s not because I’m drunk. It’s because I’m drinking, drunk implies I may have stopped.
Nice job by the offense for most of the game. Nice to have a QB who can hit a receiver in stride. Nice to win.
H2P!
Nice reference to BP, a win is a win, House is learning on the job, not good
How many games like this have we lost? No time for celebration, but we made that three foot putt, whew!
LGD, H2P, and GTHCGTH!
I am firmly convinced that Pitts administration does not care if Pitt football is ever successful.
Winning ugly is not as bad as losing a game
like this. Glad we got the W. QBs of our future
opponents will be looking forward to
playing us. Unfortunately the D over
shadowed the play of Savage, Conner,
Boyd, and Street. Also O line played well.
The only real difference on D vs. last year is that Jared Holley is gone and Dave Huxtable is gone. Jared Holley was good, but not THAT good. There is no way this is a talent-only problem. I mean we are not even close, many plays with no Pitt players in the camera shot. Imagine this game without the 4 picks.
Feeling uninspired.
I hope that Chryst looks to a college team next time for a DC…..and I hope the ‘next time’ is next January.
I remember a year the Steelers offense scored too quickly, it is hard on the D to be on the field that often. Four interceptions, one for a touchdown, that is usually great defense. Almost not enough today.
We kept knocking them down and they kept getting back up.
We wanted a progress report, we got one. Offense better than expected, Defense, not so much.
Gonna be a long frustrating football season around here.
Oh, and, House should be fired. ASAP.
Holley may not have been that good, but replacing him with Vinopal doubles the loss. Plus, no pass rush all day. When Price covered the option he should have slammed Connette every time and let someone else be responsible for the back. You have to make a running QB pay the price. No pun intended.
I still say we need to recruit D ends and Linebackers. And a new D coordinator, I gave him the benefit of the doubt against FSU. Not this time. Also a special teams guru. Or just kick the ball out of bounds on punts and squib the kick off.
we often lose games like that.
No doubt big issue on D and it seems like scheme and coaching… so they need to get that squared away ASAP.. let’s see what happens.
But come on… wow, what an offense!! No mistakes. Ran the ball down their throat,… two GREAT receivers… and a big time, play-on-Sunday Arm.
And Savage is showing he is evolving each week as well.
Offensive line already looks dominant.
H2P
The good news is that we do have some playmakers: Savage, Street, Boyd, Weatherspoon, Conners on O.
On D, Donald, Thomas, K-Whan, Pitts, Hendricks and today Gonzalez came up big, when it was needed most.
We have lost more than our share of games like this. Savage made the play at the end, something the other guy never did.
we win just 2 more games unless houe is fired house is no good he is in way over his head.
and it is to bad beguse with this offence we could win 8 games easy.
but we wont with this D
Let’s relax, take the win and move forward.
H2P!!!
Down here in Charleston (SC, not WV) they switched away to the Tennessee/Florida game after that fourth quarter interception (should have) sealed it. To come back online and see that we only won by 3 is almost beyond belief. To have my heart ripped out twice in less than 24 hours (the Pirates loss was the worst since Sid Bream did us in) is just more than one fan should have to take.
Some of my friends above talked about him “possibly figuring things out” ….why do we have to suffer thru that! 🙁
Maybe it will fare better against those opponents who run more conventional style offenses? Let’s hope that is the case because Georgia Tech will destroy us and even Navy’s option attack will give our defense serious trouble. Navy is no longer a sure win and may even be a likely loss.
Ok , thanks for clearing the ledge.
