I actually don't like calling many designed runs for Lamar, they really don't even need them tonight.
They aren't.

Its read option and Pittsburgh is crashing the RB every play... which is exactly the opposite of what they did the last game.

Mostly yes
I just know and we just saw that it is a dangerous game

Pitt ain't scoring shit tonight unless a lot of shit changes

Let’s get Henry a TD here and I’m gonna feel really good about my parlay.

Likely is sich a good technical blocker. He does not have the build of a good blocking TE but he routinely is making the block when needed.

exactly. No one thought that was gonna be part of his game. Nothing about him says good blocker.

Someone must have told him "look kid, Mark Andrews is the guy. You want snaps you gotta develop as a blocker" or something like that and he ran with it.

That last block hand placement was perfect. He used his inside arm to attack the defenders inside biceps and as soon as the defender went over the top he readjusted his hand placement from inside bicep to the teres major. Just perfect.

He actually struggled with some early holding penalties and was quoted in wanting/needing to become a better/more technical blocker.

Man of his word...

I’d go back to that and make the refs call offensive PI over and over again.

Great Russ decision making.

Throws a checkdown on 3rd and 18.
It is ridiculous, exactly why Denver cut bait on him.

+They brought Fields in for the most obvious run blitz situation ever and he only got one play

Tomlin had the stupid balls to go to Russ and should have had the balls to ditch him weeks ago

Throwing fields in this week down 14 is just dumb, should have gave him some serious run the last few weeks when you needed it

Tomlin looking foolish to me with the way he managed offensive personnel this season
