Last year, the Niners had 199 yards in the first half while the Steelers only had one. Today in the second half, the Steelers had 211 yards while the Chargers had -5. What a difference a year makes

[@justinmichael2771]

FYI… it was Willie Parker that complained about not getting enough carries. Tomlin responded by saying “When I come into work, I walk past 6 Lombardi trophies…. Not 6 rushing titles”. Willie didn’t complain again after that 😅

[@ScoreboardKeepers]

That man spoke truth

[@garse70]

Charger fan here and if the Steelers can score 20-21 points per game, they will win 12-13 games. They averaged 17 points per game last season and won 10 games. That defense is a Super Bowl unit.

[@MistaCreepz]

I like this broadcast team, great chemistry and they love the Steelers lol

[@King_Rayy_The_Entertainer]

Don’t jump on our bandwagon remember a lot of you analysts said we be mediocre and a 9-8 team again keep that energy

[@fmthebaron]

Bill Cowher and JJ Watt are the only ones on that panel that are right about the Steelers being great. The other ones are just front runners.

[@UnknownSageMaster]

No hate at all, but it's a veeerrry long season and the Steelers' schedule is backloaded. 9 wins isn't in reach just yet

[@lewislewis6247]

To all the coach Tomlin and Justin Fields haters what now? Go Steelers!

[@beamerball666]

All they'll do is talk about how the Colts dismantled us without Anthony Richardson last year and now he's healthy, then throw in the fact Herbert wasn't 100%. This win won't earn us the respect we want, but 3-0 works for me.

[@brittanybradford9239]

I'm with ya but it's only been 3 games and we haven't really played a top qb where we have to score a little bit more.

Ive been saying the same thing!! Takes me back to the Kordell Stewart years and putting together solid wins!

Fields at this point seems a lot better than Kordel lol. Stewart couldn't hit the side of a building from the inside.

[@BD-zg7is]

matt ryan is REALLY good at this!

[@Hereticempire]

Was Nate actually watching the game??? They only ran the ball to close out the game. It was Fields that won that game with his arm, and took a 20-10 lead BEFORE we even ran the ball for 50 yards total up to- that point. SMH

[@lewislewis6247]

No, they watch highlights or glimpses of the game and go home and watch games for their next segment on them and this how analysts give their opinions 😂 they can’t watch every game and then give their takes 😂 it’ll be a long post game show

[@jeromeedwards4882]

Exactly, they stacked the box to make him beat them with his arm, and that's what he did.

[@ScoreboardKeepers]

That not true naje had 11 caries before halftime

[@Hereticempire]

Yeah - for like 30 yards - he got most of his yards on the last few carries of the game after we had the lead

[@edc8909]

Justin Fields with the this defense is starting to get better. Russ with this defense would be great 😊

[@justmarcus33]

Wilson hasn't had a winning season in like 3 or 4 years... why would he suddenly be great?

[@edc8909]

@justmarcus33 simple, this as good as it gets. He did well with a bad defense. You can only wonder what he can do with a great defense

[@fmthebaron]

@@justmarcus33 Russell always had far superior stats to Justin Fields in every season. He'd be even better with this loaded Steelers team and phenomenal kicker Boswell.

[@otherZinc]

Russell Wilson is NOT BETTER than Justin Fields!!!! It is Not Ev4n Close!

[@otherZinc]

​@fmthebaron , Russell has "Always" has Better Teams and Coaches! Justin showed what he could do at Ohio State, where he was Better than Russ in College. If Justin Fields had Russ Seattle Teams, Justin would be in The Hall of Fame and still in Seattle!

[@dionshare7103]

Oh yes I am getting excited as a huge lifelong Steelers fan. Great win today. Let's carry the momentum and keep it going. Take down the Colts next week.

[@Dirt-d]

Everyone said we would finish last In The north

[@nrg6245]

Yup clowns

[@fruitbythefoote]

Exactly; there’s only 1 team in the North that will have a winning record after Week 3: the Pittsburgh Steelers.

[@demianseale501]

Thanks for the spoiler

[@Pit8813]

Pittsburgh is good at best, not great theyre good! They're playing good enough to win the defense is playing solid no more than 10 points allowed in every single game, but we will see how good this team really is or if they aint all that come week 11, 4 straight division rival games and the eagles and the chiefs on Christmas? That stretch will be brutal and i know its gonna be tough to win those games, we got a long road ahead of us with the 3rd toughest schedule

[@bigl261991]

Maybe but they are trending in the right direction. It's all about growth. that within itself is good enough.

[@bigl261991]

Kenny somewhere crying😂

[@johnbroadway4196]

Tomlin has no killer instinct. You go and stomp that end zone run in to go up 27 to 10.

[@Antimatter_Elli]

Why? What if Fields tore his ACL, what if Pickens gets a concussion? Doesn't matter if you win by an inch or a mile.

[@johnbroadway4196]

@Antimatter_Elli F-tomliin standards. I only believe Superbowwl wins. And ya don't get there by A soft whimmpy never sticking it in the opposing team. Killer instinct ! Not softly sensitive Kumbaya let's hold hands Crayola.
