Danny Smith

Don’t blame me / It has been clear I don’t know what I’m doing
Brian Batko
7:21
Yes, I'm sure the Steelers special teams coach went out there and told his return man to let the ball doink off his mask.
Giants lead 3-0 after Graham Gano (remember him?) field goal. If I'm a Giants fan, I hate that decision. Go for 7 after getting a gift like that.
Chuck Noll
7:23
when you put players in a position they are not capable of it is your fault as coach
Brian Batko
7:23
Diontae Johnson was a second-team All-Pro punt returner last year as a rookie.
7:24
OK here comes the offense. I'll be looking at Zach Banner at right tackle, how much pre-snap motion they use with Matt Canada coming in, oh and I guess No. 7.
Chuck Noll
7:24
how is he doing so far this year?
Brian Batko
7:24
0 for 1, Chuck.
7:26
So uh, not a great start for the Steelers offense. Or new punter Dustin Colquitt. Other than that...
Chuck Noll
7:27
Stinking it up so far
SteelRebel
7:28
...other than that, not the start we were hoping for
Tom
7:28
What a disappointing first possession. I thought it was the Giants with a completely new coaching staff who would start slow. So far, typical Steelers against inferior teams....always making it harder than it should.
SteelRebel
7:29
Wow Dupree looked like Troy on that play
Chuck Noll
7:29
Nice play Bud
Brian Batko
7:30
Bud was in coverage on Evan Engram on the first play of that series, too. Looking to get even MORE paid this offseason.
Beth
7:33
Bet Ray Ray is active next week to field punts.
Brian Batko
7:34
He's active now. Could get back there tonight if they want him to.
7:36
Ben a little gimpy after a QB hit. He's back.
7:37
Maurkice Pouncey with a low snap. That was an issue last year, and he didn't seem to think much of it.
And wow, what a grab along the sideline by Chase Claypool. Think Ben is liking him already?
Chuck Noll
7:41
Conner not showing much escapability
Offensive line needs to do better
Brian Batko
7:41
Agree on both fronts. They're not giving him much space to run, much like last year.
SteelRebel
7:41
Not opening holes
Brian Batko
7:41
Yeah, what he said.
7:42
And it's 3-3 after a Chris Boswell field goal. Just 49 seconds left in the first quarter and it's flying by. My wife says "We want Duck Hodges."
Tom
7:43
Ben has had people in his face on every pass.
Mark
7:43
this offensive line is horrible they are going to get big ben hurt his right knee is hurt already
Brian Batko
7:44
I don't even see one particular issue with the line so far, though I'm not rewinding and watching every play over again. Seems like breakdowns across the front consistently.
Chuck Noll
7:44
Only Duck we want is ala Mr Richards
Mark
7:44
they should have taken more offensive lineman in draft facts
Brian Batko
7:44
Look for next year to be a big one to beef up the line through the draft. Certainly have to think they'll be looking at a tackle high.
Mark
7:46
matt fieler is a bum so is is Steven  wiesniski mr banner is getting pushed around  if I was ben I would walk out
Chuck Noll
7:48
Supposed to be stronger in pass protection. We know run blocking will be a problem
Brian Batko
7:49
Doesn't help when David DeCastro isn't out there. He's an excellent run-blocker.
GSMP
7:50
The run defense has been stout.
Gene
7:51
OL needs to protect Ben way better or he is going to get hurt.
Mark
7:52
stick a fork in these bums no corners worthless
Brian Batko
7:52
Touchdown, Giants. Daniel Jones 41 yards to Darius Slayton and it's 10-3. A bit reminiscent of what the Patriots did in the opener last year, with Joe Judge on staff...
Chuck Noll
7:53
Uh oh
Connecting…
