My hunch is they're going to try Sutton, and I don't know how that works. Burns playing in general scares me. He hasn't been good at anything this year.

As sad as it is, he hasn't shown the ability to get penalties and constantly burned. Yeah, thats about as positive as it gets with all this, really is a sore spot this secondary, they better fix this in the offseason, preferably after they fire colbert. He hasn't played much, so it's unknown, but hopefully better than what will happen. We already have seen what happens with the other route. The steelers better hope gronk falls as he did on the miracle in miami play 2 hours ago, CKSteeler said: Burns cannot handle that job. He's not physical enough.

I agree on tis unless somehow burns has made progress in recent months. Haden might work, but tell that to tomlin. Bold is the way many here have seen it. Add a few penalties and a few TD's, thats burns on this D. Then the communication breakdowns... When burns was put in, the QB saw it and the pass to burns WR was the only read, just throw it there, no worries. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But it’s an absolutely pet peeve of mine when people say they are not going to watch the nfl anymore (liars) and when people do the “yeah but we still aren’t going to win it all”. Just enjoy the game if we beat the patriots and enjoy the ride. There is a real fear that we won’t make the playoffs - we really dropped the ball with the way our schedule shapes out here, but if anyone has watched the Thursday game or the Houston game yesterday....I have zero fear of the AFC playoffs...I fear us, more than I fear them.

It's the thinking that what we don't know is better because we don't know. Obviously if we haven't seen him it means he's not doing the things in practice that he needs to do to see the field.

Dcash4 Posted December 16, 2018 Share Posted December 16, 2018 I’d be interested to hear from some more defensive minded people, but I can’t help but think that this would be a great week to have a 4 man Heyward - Hargreaves - Tuitt - Watt pass rush. Hargrave has been a force and is exactly the pressure that works on TB12. Preferably with Fort and Williams behind them and man 2 behind that. Dupree can rotate and just give 110% effort Not saying that’s our base or 100% defense, but I would really like to see that occasionally. Tight windows and a collapsing pocket.
