Food for thought Bo Nix sucked his first game as a Duck....Every thing changed the next Game.

I got this feeling he is going to be on this game and no 3 step drops on 5 step called plays. He don't make mistakes twice . I believe he will redeem him self. We have the 12th man this week . that should also help.
That's exactly how I see it - we will find out.

Need the Offense to respond here and find a rhythm.

Gotta get something going on offense. C'mon Payton, let's pull out some big plays.

Unless we somehow get the ball back after that awful failed fourth down conversion, 62 yards of Offense in the first half is abysmal.

You’d think only giving up 10 points at halftime would be good but when you look at the other side of the ball I don’t think anyone is happy with how the game has gone.

This game reminds us once again of the annual truth that preseason is meaningless.

Offense needs to open their first second half possession like they care about winning this game

Rookies are going to play like rookies but this is not the Bo Nix we were sold on.

If it all works out in the end starting Nix early is worth it but it really looks like he wasn’t ready to be named the starter.

To be fair Steelers usually have a damn good defense.

I'm not surprised Nix is struggling today.

I was expecting a tougher matchup because Seattle was good last week but Pittsburgh is really good it’s just more of the fact that it doesn’t seem like Nix learned from his mistakes last week and so he still making them. Now yes I know Rookies are rookies but there’s no improvement at least from what I’ve noticed so far and in some cases regression.

It’s sad when you have to play to avoid getting shut out versus trying to win because you put yourself in such a bad position. A TD there would’ve been miles different than a FG still putting us down 2 scores.

That's it, bench him! Who's the back up? :heh:


I think he'll be okay. Steelers defense is a tough match up for alotta QB's. Especially a rookie.
