How much does anyone want to bet that the Steelers make ZERO halftime adjustments and the Pats completely takeover this game in the 2nd half?

And go to zone coverage

this is exactly what i'm bracing for. we're about to see the rob gronkowski show in the 2nd half, and we won't be able to dick about it. steelers MUST bring the running game back into their playcalls, they MUST dominate time of possession to win this game.

Pretty uninspired half of football from a Patriots standpoint - certainly doing nothing to dispel the roadkill tag they've earned this year.

Don't worry, Patriots win by 30, with some leaks in the 3rd quarter, then they blow it wide open in the fourth quarter when the Steelers try to cover Gronk with a DE or a Kicker or a long snapper or something retarded, as usual.

Even the Chin said they need to finish this game out running the ball.

If steelers win this game colts are going to need LAC to win their division if they don't beat the giants.

 

[Ojb81]

[redseat]

[FaCe-LeE-uS]

[CaptainStubing]

Another drop by the pats kills a drive

 

[FaCe-LeE-uS]

Steelers need to control the clock on this drive... PLEASE run the ball

Hey McCourty you look at the ball when the receiver does.. WTF were you doing?

 

[FaCe-LeE-uS]

WHAT. A. CATCH.

 

[dbldwn711]

Here’s the difference in this game:

Steelers WRs making great concentration catches while pats WRs are dropping a lot of key passes.

Other than that the teams are playing even

 

[FaCe-LeE-uS]

Now run the damn ball Fichtner

 

[TP76]

Game over - they discovered Jason McCourty
