Amazing win for this team. To play that poorly in the first half on offense and step up on defense and to fight through the struggle on offense in the second half is HUGE for this team.
Good teams can sometimes hurt themselves, but they also overcome those mistakes. This team is good. Need to do a lot better to be great - and the defense may be really great - but they are good.
What many don't realize is this is the kind of s**t good teams do. They can play like trash and still win. Thankfully we have a bye to heal and get this stuff cleaned up.
This game was about answers. Every time the offense turned it over, the defense answered with damage control. When the defense gave up a big TD, the offense answered with good drives. It was not pretty but this type of win builds character. Great win for a young team.

I'll take an ugly win and 3-0 going into bye... but if spoon don't come back I'm worried about getting torched again
Ford / Buckner / Bosa on the field at the same time is a nightmare I hope they stay healthy

The stat line wont look that great for Jimmy but it was a great building block game for him. He got the piss knocked out of him but kept coming back looking to make plays. Could be a confidence booster.

I thought Verrett was going to be the goat. He looked lost out there.
Those were his first snaps in like two years. He got put in a tough situation, hopefully the bye allows him to get some more rust off.
Exactly. And he has not practiced much as well.

Skule is serviceable. We need to obviously keep developing him but I think he can do the job. Seemed like everyone on the line was struggling today. I don't know if it was just an off day or if Pitt is that good on the defensive front?
Until those penalties in the 2nd half I thought our biggest issues on the OLine were right side. Wasn't a bad game at all from him in general.
Having said that, we'll see how he matches up in a couple weeks against that beast the Browns have on the edge.

A win is a win. Main take away here should be that our d is talented enough to overcome some to's. We can clean up that.
This.....we know that our D is legit and they can finally be counted on
