The hits are on the OLine not working efficiently. Probably stifled our run game as well. The lack of depth here and inexperience is hurting us. I am not blaming it Skule. He is green and did what he could under high pressure. The lack of work and depth is on coaching and management.
agree, i am trying not to be hard on the kid to. i understand.. we need to enjoy the win. be happy we are 3-0 and i am.. but long term. big picture.. jimmy can not get hit like yesterday moving forward
The hits on Jimmy had nothing to do with Skule. Steelers continuously sent more blitzers than blockers. It was a risk that did not pay off, jimmy did not get rattled and made them pay for the lack of people in coverage.
correct observation. cc doesn't understand the Steelers constantly blitzed safety's and extra rushers all game long.
ok, again. i was not trying to throw the kid under the bus. just concerned about jimmys health after sunday.. you do not think all teams will then do what they did to us? we better expect that stuff . there are no more secrets. just need to show improvement there
no, because Jimmy has just proven he doesn't get rattled and is capable of making defenses pay by rushing extra blitzers like that. Jimmy took punishment, but made them pay as well. as jd said, the Steelers had their backs against the wall and had nothing to lose.
