Inaccurate into double coverage

"Look at the coverage ... welp, he's uncovered," is one of the funniest announcement lines I've heard.

But hey, T.J. Watt makes another play!
2:21
Jim Nantz just announced they split Harmon's sack with Watt, giving T.J. Watt 1.5 sacks.
Bob
2:21
Did they give TJ a 1/2 sack on that one?  Lol
Ab
2:21
Watt out only player

If only we had another TO.
Turd Ferguson

TJ has a "sack and a half" n'at.
JeffB

Yes JJ whiffed on that one
Carlo

3rd down run hurt filed po badly
Lou

Chris what is wrong with this offense? No talent? Bad OL? Too slow?
Christopher Carter
2:23
It's not balanced. They're not scared of the run and are all over the pass.
2:25
Germie Bernard LAID OUT somebody on the Pat Freiermuth first down. Great block. He and Pat Freiermuth might be the only #Steelers on offense who've had a good first half.
Joe
2:25
Coaching matters.

Metcalf is paid $30 mil a year! Has to be the Steelers worst trade ever.
Joe
2:25
Even Cleveland can score 6 points in a half lol
Carlo
2:25
Muth great play to get OB
Christopher Carter
2:27
Mike Vrabel with a whoopsie. Called a second timeout within the same period. Can't do that. 5 yards and a lost timeout. Steelers now at the Pats' 42.
JeffB
2:27
Gotta get something here. FG.

Still a close game, if Steelers offense can wake up

Big mistake by Vrabel
Christopher Carter
2:29
FIELD GOAL. Chris Boswell is good from 56 to end the half.

Aaron Rodgers made some good throws to mvoe the ball into range, and Mike Vrabel made a mistake that helped too.

Drive: 6 plays, 27 yards, 0:40.

Patriots 10, #Steelers 3. Halftime.

But hey remember we late to the party gotta legacy. Handsy ego DB that is... ramping up as we watch

Halftime grades:  Offense: F (Only 3 points. aweful);  Defense: D (gave up a lot of yards, but did have a turnover); Special teams: D (nothing special); Coaching: F (They didn't have this team ready today). We may get shut out today.  So many penalties and injuries.
KP
2:30
how are we only down 7?
Carlo
2:30
vrabels penalty made that kick work
Joe
2:30
Just a bad bad team unfortunately

HALFTIME: Patriots 10, #Steelers 3.

As always, some @PittsburghPG notes:

👍Steelers' defensive front keeps the game alive. Nick Herbig's forced a turnover. T.J. Watt has 1.5 sacks, Alex Highsmith bats down a 3rd down pass, and Derrick Harmon has half a sack. Without them, this looks a lot worse.
👍Germie Bernard. The rookie is stepping up. 4 catches on 5 targets for 35 yards and a massive block that sprung Pat Freiermuth on that FG drive.
👍Pat Freiermuth. Maybe target him more? He's caught 3/4 for 27 and drew a DPI that kept a drive alive.
👎O-line. Just a terrible start to this game. Pass protection is poor. Aaron Rodgers got rocked so much it eliminated an easy field goal chance for Chris Boswell, and the run game is non-existent. Said it all preseason, but this group needed more work in physicality and it's showing again this week,
👎Third down offense. 2/8 is terrible. You'd think with the weapons the Steelers have that they'd be able to find some more mismatches. But it hasn't materialize yet.
👎Coverage. The defensive front has helped take away some open shots Drake Maye's had. He's 7/9 for 89, but been sacked twice. Patriots will aim to exploit that more in the second half if not fixed.

No Mike the biggest problem you have on Offense is NOT "protection" Its play calling and a horribly inaccurate QB
