I hope we get to see Hodges tonight and keep Rudolph on the bench.

I hope we get to see Hodges tonight and keep Rudolph on the bench.

Dobbs will start and Rudolph will play after and Hodges will play in the entire second half

By the way, even if it's in the preseason, it's not safe for the players (especially players who have to play well to make this roster or another NFL roster) to play a Thursday night after playing Sunday night 4 days before and that with 2 games on the road.

And in addition, the opponent will be more fresh since the Panthers played only last Thursday.

This is a dangerous situation for the health of the players who must play well in his 2 games to make an NFL roster, but Goodell do not care about the players safety, especially for players like that!

Not a good idea to play Bush tonight...Rookie or not...

[JimHarbaugh'ssoakedtissue]

Although wouldn't play Rudolph at all and everyone in Steeler Country knows that he has the 2 spot rap up. Pretending to the rest of teams that it is still a competition to give Dobbs some trade bait clout.

Artie tackle the catch Burns.

[Polamalu Princess]

YES!!!!

[stillers4me]

Special teams magic.

[polamalubeast]

Give Danny Smith a new Contract!

[JimHarbaugh'ssoakedtissue]

Nice coverage by Burns
Nice tip by SS
Nice block FG by Gilbert
Drive over

[BlackAndGold]

UG3 with the FG block. Think he may have secured his spot on the 53.

[JimHarbaugh'ssoakedtissue]

Dobbs crapping the bed so far and so much for trade offers.

Marcus needs cut and should have made the tackle.

I’m not near a tv but following play by play on line.

Is our defense sucking now?

[JimHarbaugh'ssoakedtissue]

Wow amazing play by 40

[Polamalu Princess]

AWESOME!!! :cheer2::cheer2::cheer2:

[HollywoodSteel]

Who is J. Elliot?

[polamalubeast]

107 passing yards for the panthers after only 9 minutes

Fortunately most players of the steelers in defense will be cut or will not have a lot of snap defense this year!

Now a 88 defensive TD for the steelers!!!!!

7-0 Steelers!

Sorta but they did get a HUGE turnover. Their QB has had a few runs and one big pass play
A few missed tackles as well

The steelers offense have been on the bench almost the entire first quarter!

Steelers have a lot of good players name Cam unlike the Panthers who only have one.

[polamalubeast]

176 offensive yards in 3 drives for the Panthers but they need a 59 yards FG to score their first 3 points!

Bush had 5 tackles in the first quarter BTW.

In other words, he's running at a Snell's pace? :chuckle:

[RunNGun]

Rudolph is looking very impressive. Benny Snell is too slow. Very unimpressed with him as a runner.

[JimHarbaugh'ssoakedtissue]

The Impractical Joker ref has it in for us.

[Edman]

Three consecutive holding calls. Three different guys.

Back into field goal range after THREE HOLDING CALLS.

[RunNGun]

Benny Snell's first career broken tackle

[Polamalu Princess]

UGH!

[JimHarbaugh'ssoakedtissue]

Wright made a wrong

[stillers4me]

Welcome back, Boz.

[Fire Goodell]

Why isn't Boz kicking? I guess they're already confident in him? I figure he could use the reps

[HollywoodSteel]

This is exactly what I was gonna ask. This is so pointless. What are we using this game for if not to let the guys who can get some practice get it?

[GoSlash27]

I thought Herb Waters was gone??

[polamalubeast]

Why isn't Boz kicking? I guess they're already confident in him? I figure he could use the reps

I do not understand that

One way or another, Wright would not make the team, even if Boswell would have been terrible ... If Boswell would have been terrible in the preseason, the steelers would have found another kicker in another team.

- - - Updated - - -


I thought Herb Waters was gone??

He will be after this game!

[JimHarbaugh'ssoakedtissue]

Always thought Grier is a decent QB. Come on Rudolph lets get the points back.

[GoSlash27]

Justin Layne burned again.

[Fire Goodell]

I wanna see some Delvin Hodges, Rudolph is already the #2 IMO

[JimHarbaugh'ssoakedtissue]

Nice

[Polamalu Princess]

Boom!

[Edman]

Mason Rudolph doesn’t throw down the field.

[JimHarbaugh'ssoakedtissue]

[Fire Goodell]

Mason Rudolph doesn’t throw down the field.

And he always forces the deep passes to Washington :chuckle:

[polamalubeast]

I do not want to be negative and overreact but if Snell and Layne would not have been a 3rd or 4th round pick, his two players would be looking for a job in a grocery store tomorrow instead of being in an NFL roster.

[Fire Goodell]

yeah i'm really not impressed with Snell. I expected more from him. I know it's only year 1 but I have a higher expectations from running backs, they usually don't have a steep learning curve

[Edman]

Tie game.

[GoSlash27]

I do not want to be negative and overreact but if Snell and Layne would not have been a 3rd or 4th round pick, his two players would be looking for a job in a grocery store tomorrow instead of being in an NFL roster.

Snell's doing okay. Layne not so much.

[Polamalu Princess]

Tie - new game going into the half.

[Edman]

On the bright side, these preseason cuts are getting much easier.

[polamalubeast]

I hope it will be the case..

1167226415722446848

[GoSlash27]

Skipper!! :D

[JimHarbaugh'ssoakedtissue]

TD Rudolph to Holton

[stillers4me]

Boom!!!

[Edman]

Cam Sutton INT leads to a RUDOLPH TD!

[RunNGun]

Just imagine if Colbert and Tomlin could draft corners

[stillers4me]

Again, welcome home, Boz.

[Edman]

And there goes the one advantage Dobbs had. The Joshua Dobbs Experiment is over.

[JimHarbaugh'ssoakedtissue]

Boz is wearing 16 tonight.

[GoSlash27]

What was all that noise about "Skipper can't play ST" ?
Get this kid on the roster and ditch Chickillo.

Johnny Holton stating his case to be the #6 WR...

3 rec for 86 yds and 1 TD

[Polamalu Princess]

:cheer2::cheer2::cheer2:

[RunNGun]

Losing 15 lbs won't automatically make Snell faster. Some people have it and some don't. Is it possible? Yes. Looking back at Conner's rookie year, I remember him looking pretty slow as well.

[JimHarbaugh'ssoakedtissue]

3 rec for 86 yds and 1 TD Agreed but would like to see Spencer given his chance as well in the 2nd half. Right now I think Holton brings more then Rogers offers.

I must admit I was not too confident that Conner could become a good RB after his rookie season, but the difference is that he had had cancer a few years before, and since his condition is better and better in each year.

take bush out of the game, i remember a game vs carolina in the preseason which pretty ended a promising linebacker's career (spence)

yeah i know he eventually came back to play in the NFL, but he was never as fast, and not the player he could have been

[Polamalu Princess]

Love it!

[Edman]

Offensive Line got trashed that entire drive. Oof.

[JimHarbaugh'ssoakedtissue]

The 2nd half OL is horrible.

[GoSlash27]

Skipper with a sack, giving him at least one in every game he's played plus he's had 2 special teams tackles tonight.

how can we not keep him?

[GoSlash27]

AFAIC Skipper has made his case.

[st33lersguy]

I swear if they don't keep Skipper

[JimHarbaugh'ssoakedtissue]

Wow that OL is total garbage. Cut them all really!

[GoSlash27]

WTH happened to the O line??

[hawaiiansteeler]

The 2nd half OL is horrible.

Hawkins especially looks bad, this OL is going to get one of our QBs or RBs killed...

Benny Snell at hist best...2 Yards,3 yards...3rd down and 5 now...

[Fire Goodell]

2nd half we might as well be kneeling 3 times and punting lol

[JimHarbaugh'ssoakedtissue]

Snell has been very disappointing and should have caught that.

[polamalubeast]

I am not worried about the o-line....This O-line had given only 3 sacks in the preseason before today and I think every player in the o-line now will be cut....So,who care!

[JimHarbaugh'ssoakedtissue]

Skipper is the real deal

[GoSlash27]

Skipper with another strip sack

[polamalubeast]

5 sacks for Skipper now.

[JimHarbaugh'ssoakedtissue]

If Skipper is cut, I do not think the Steelers will be lucky as they were with James Harrison in 2002 and 2003 ... Harrison was cut several times by the steelers and even signed once with the Ravens but fortunately for the Steelers, the Ravens had made the same mistake, otherwise this move would haunt us for the rest of our life!

The problem is they won’t cut Chick. They just won’t do it after committing money to him.

So who do Steelers cut to keep 2Pac. Him being so good puts the Steelers in a tough position

How is it likely to see Dobbs with the highest grade for a 3rd week in a row by PFF?

Layne had a high grade in college by PFF too.

[HollywoodSteel]

1167246423034929152

I’m so ready for us to stop thinking about some 4th string QB. If he isn’t absolutely shredding someone’s 4th string defense then I’m fine with never seeing him again.

neither has Justin Layne, but I'll bet both make the team.

Can anyone tell me why Boz isn’t getting every possible practice kick in game situations?
Are they afraid he’ll get hurt?

This makes zero sense to me

it should be fairly easy to cut a lot of these guys from this "deep group of offensive linemen"...

Tomlin has badly managed the situation of the kickers in the preseason ... Boswell was great in every kick he had (always right down the middle almost each time) but Boswell had so few XP and FG attempts in his last 2 game (only 1 XP attempts and 0 FG attempts)

[HollywoodSteel]

The only thing gained by this offensive performance is that we can put an end to all this ridiculous talk about Hodges in any way being associated with this team going forward. He’s a 4th string QB who had a 38 QB rating against 4th stringers.

And he has no business taking up a spot on the practice squad either.

[hawaiiansteeler]

the only defense I do have for Hodges is that he was literally running for his life on every play...

First rough performance for an undrafted rookie quarterback surrounded by scrubs and let down by a crappy O Line and "Benny Snail Football" and you want to cast him out. Fair enough. Hodges didn't look good tonight, first the first time all preseason.

As opposed to Dobbs who has done nothing of note all preseason and didn't look good at all tonight either behind the second stringers.

Either way, regardless of who our third QB is, the Steelers are in trouble if it ever reaches that point.

[JimHarbaugh'ssoakedtissue]

the only defense I do have for Hodges is that he was literally running for his life on every play... Scrub wr's that couldn't catch at all when he made a play. 39 for the Steeers drop probably at least 3.

[fansince'76]

In a league where 60+ percent of the starting QBs are either mediocre or just downright suck, who isn't?

[polamalubeast]

I do not know for 60%

If we just look at the playoffs field last year, outside of Lamar Jackson (I would not be surprised if he become very good, but that's another debate) the 11 other teams all had very good QB, where his teams could have hope with them (maybe less with Prescott, but he is average at worst) ... And a few other QBs who missed the playoffs (Ben, Rodgers, Mayfield, Ryan and maybe I forget others) are QBs that a team can realistically win with.

It's not perfect, but I've already seen much worse depth for the QB in the NFL.

Sutton had 0 missed tackle before yesterday(5 tackles in the first 3 games,4 yesterday)..And sometimes,this is not a always good thing when a CB has several tackles...
