On the pick 6, Lamar threw into double coverage AFTER, seeing Snead wide open, defender 5 away, which would have given the Ravens a first down on 3rd & five. Very last play, he three into tripple coverage to Snead, instead of single coverage on the outside to Boykin, who had inside position. Do you want more plays to show that he is not reading the defense or, even worse, just ignoring it and chosing to whom he wants to throw? Go back in this thread, a completion for 30 yatds to a wide open wr was nice, set up a td several plays later. However what he missed/ignored was Brown on a skinny post with the db on his outside and no safety help- easy touchdown for 40÷ yards, saves time and, swings momentum. Another one earlier in the game, he chose to throw to Andrews short, when he had I bekieve3 Brown again on the outside on a stop & go, ahead of the db, Steelers were in a single high safety, 3rd coverages. One look to the left holds the safety, easy 70+ yard touchdown. Reading the coverage is key, not just by were the defenders are, but by the position of the db's in relation to the wideouts, inside, head up, outside. I said this when they drafted him, that he could not properly read a defense, not just tell if it is man or zone, but more. So far, and he is young, he is showing he still cannot or worse, as I said, is chosing to ignore the coverage.

Spen, you are not wrong. The play calling to start the 2nd half was atrocious. The defense, as well as they played had some lapses; hey, Pit is a good team. The officials did not help either, they were terrible. But Lamar cost this team in the obvious way, 7 on a pick six, not seeing the field, bad decision; all qbs make that mistake. 3 pts at least on the fumble at the goal line; poor pocket awareness, careless with the ball. Hey, all qbs do this sometimes. He gave the Steelers at least 3 more pts with the poor choice of throwing into tripple coverage, a pick, setting the Steelers up in field goal range. This also swong the momentum of the game, and is also a blame for the coaches for calling a pass play. The very next series the coaches called more pass plays instead of gutting this Steeler defense unable to consistantly stop the run yesterday. So that is what, 13 pts all on Lamar. He is making the same mistakes we have talked about since he was drafted, as I said during the game. Only he got away with it then, the defenses did not know how to defend him, they do now.

Fitting, Lamar's running (he could have had the first doen) cost this team a win. His inablility to read & throw accurately on time cost this team a win. You don't dominate a team on the ground like that and not be able to use play action to the throw the ball.

2 guys standing there and no one covers

Amazing, the Steelers defense doesn't commit pass interference

Bonds is a.liability

Nice pick up of rhe flag

Touch down,

He was in, aw man so close, bad challenge John, as usual

If he handed that off its a td

Snead to the rescue on 2 & 22

That was not holding

Whippie, a an easy pass, but if he had thrown it to Brown on the deep post it's 6 pts

Your missing two starters on the offensive line, you run the ball effectively, you can't pass block, your qb is having a very bad day throwing even when he gets time, why are you not running the ball!!!!!

Another failed pass play; 190 freaking yards rushing in the first half; at least run a play action, not empty backfield. Play calling and Lamar are costing this team a win

Nice stand by the defense

Why do they keep throwing? It's a 4 pt game

Lamar is making the same mistakes, careless mistakes he has made since he was drafted. Last year he got away with them, not this year. There is a heisman commercial where they make fun of Mayfield, Lamar quips; Baker csn only play well under pressure. Well, maybe Lamar can't play under pressure. He is not seeing the field, not reading the defense. Another fumble, this one by Andrews, thankfully it went out of bounds

Time of possession has been completely flipped and the Steelers take the lead

How do you not cover the man in the middle?

Great hands up

Big sack

Gonna lose this game

Flag happy for the Steelers

3 plays & out, but one play was an ill advised pass that went incomplete amd stopped the clock
