Just saw the DeCastro/Pouncey play. What a terrible block.

That probably wasn't what I was expecting. And I wasn't even expecting a particularly good offensive game. Just something that rated above "hilariously inept".

Well, I guess the good news is that we wont get heartbroken by a big playoff or super bowl loss this season. Going In I was expecting only 8-8, but with those injuries and how horrid they looked I am thinking more like 4-5 wins.

I didn't watch, but following the Gamecast was painful enough.
Pouncey out really really sucks.

I just saw Decastro's shot on Pouncey and it looked like a dirty/cheap play on Decastro's fault that backfired.

Welcome to the world of cut-blocking. Completely legal in the NFL. Granted, the technique is generally not to put your head down, close your eyes and dive into a pile.BR1986FB;1497794 wrote:I just saw Decastro's shot on Pouncey and it looked like a dirty/cheap play on Decastro's fault that backfired.

For quite awhile that was something the broncos used often when they were churning out RB's with great numbers each season.gut;1497966 wrote:Welcome to the world of cut-blocking.

Apparently our guys did the Bizarro World version of Denver's tactics, then.thavoice;1498400 wrote:For quite awhile that was something the broncos used often when they were churning out RB's with great numbers each season.
No running game + take out your own guy = time to go back to the drawing board and figure out what new products ACME is offering...Wil E. Coyote style.

Really sad part is that out of 15 runs, the play Pouncey got hurt was the ONLY TIME it was the new zone blocking.thavoice;1498400 wrote:For quite awhile that was something the broncos used often when they were churning out RB's with great numbers each season.
I've come to the conclusion that PIT simply can't find anyone to coach OL (and ST, too).
