[punch it in]

Gonna start this off by saying Mike McCarthy is a joke. His teams literally win in spite if him.

I can't remember a Pittsburgh team looking this bad. They're awful.

I agree they aren't any good, but they're on the verge of stealing this game.

I do not understand what's wrong with this Vikings team. On paper they have everything to be a juggernaut on both sides of the ball... And they keep finding ways to underperform... Crazy. Without knowing a lot about their situation, you have to guess a big chunk of responsibility falls on the coaching staff but... My god what a collective waste of talent !

I think it is a combination of coaching, front office, and QB.

There is no excuse for a coaching staff to have that much talent on both sides of the ball, and within the QB position, to be that average. You can have a lot of talent, but you need the coaching leadership to motivate and put that talent to work.

The front office has hit on lots of players (Diggs, Thielin, Jefferson, Cook, etc., etc.) but they've also blundered on getting a good offensive line, and Cousins' contracts have been cap killers (I think he has a $45 million cap hit this upcoming season or something crazy like that).

And finally, while I know I have a biased opinion on Kirk Cousins, I do admit that he's a talented QB and he has the statistics to prove it. What he hasn't proved is to be a leader that can take a team to the SB. He wants to get paid like a QB that can carry a team on his back, but cannot do so. He ran Diggs out of town, can't win the big games, and always seem to be thinking about his next contract.

This team is an enigma. On paper they should be a playoff contender every season. Yet they've had a slightly better success than our dysfunctional team.

Crazy how this sports that is the quintessence of team sports keeps creating such egotistical individuals... Like, how can you be thinking about anything else than helping your team win in that situation...

Had he just got up and handed the ball to the ref they have another play at the end of the game. Selfish dick.

Also when they were getting blown out the d picked off Cousins and they all ran to the end zone to do to pic taking thing. smh...

Tomlin has lost these guys. The center couldn't even snap the ball the entire game. Never seen a Steelers team look so bad.

You must have not seen some of the Steelers' teams from the mid-to-late 80's.

Thomas’ cousin, LaTonya Bonseigneur, told the AP that he had been suffering seizures for over a year and the family believes he had one while he was showering. A friend was unable to get in touch with Thomas and sent over the receiver’s driver, who found him in the shower, according to Bonseigneur.
