You gotta throw it really high to overthrow The Mountain.

Dylan McCulley @coachmcculley.bsky.social · 1d

And Gainwell immediately proves me wrong. Love to see it. #steelers

Dylan McCulley @coachmcculley.bsky.social · 1d

Kaleb doing what gainwell doesn’t have the size to do. Love to see the rookie getting involved.

Dylan McCulley @coachmcculley.bsky.social · 1d

Appreciate the effort by Rodgers to make something in out of negative but would’ve been better to throw to the dirt. Steelers punt after an awesome throw and catch with DK. #Steelers

Dylan McCulley @coachmcculley.bsky.social · 1d

That was a soft call on the blindside block imo. Did what I would’ve coached kids to do on those type of situations. #steelers

Jeudy killed the Browns on that drive with the penalty. He also dropped the 3rd down pass but it wouldn’t have mattered. Steelers get the stop.

Still can’t run towards Watt. Been a fact of life in the NFL since 2019 when he switched sides.

Dylan McCulley @coachmcculley.bsky.social · 1d

Bold plan to not chip watt out the gate. He almost got there first play.

Dylan McCulley @coachmcculley.bsky.social · 1d

Inside zone with split flow action. Can’t bounce outside the flow action. No one to block out there.

MT Washington!!! I love it

Dylan McCulley @coachmcculley.bsky.social · 15d

It’s revealing when asked of tomlin is amazed by his players doing amazing things he says no. That’s what he expects out of them. Hence he has the highest paid defense in the league because he needs superstars to elevate the defense.

Dylan McCulley @coachmcculley.bsky.social · 15d

Tomlin relies on his players to make game winning plays. And more often than not, they do. Hence his record in close games. That works against the mid and lower teams. When talent is equal and coaching is the difference we’ve seen disproportionate losses. (Every playoff loss the last 5 years)

Such a standard answer to the question what are you going to do here on 4th down. Of course he’s gonna punt it back to Vikings.

Dylan McCulley @coachmcculley.bsky.social · 15d

It’s a miracle! Rodgers convinced tomlin to go for it on 4th. Not the best result but that’s ok! 99 yds to go with clock on our side.

Dylan McCulley @coachmcculley.bsky.social · 15d

Coincidence that MT. Washington has gotten a vast majority of the snaps? I think not!

Dylan McCulley @coachmcculley.bsky.social · 15d

He’s been on the field almost the whole game. I love it. As it should be.

Dylan McCulley @coachmcculley.bsky.social · 15d

Then gainwell breaks some tackles. I’ll take being wrong

Dylan McCulley @coachmcculley.bsky.social · 15d

I get it. He’s benefitted from Volume today. Doesn’t change my thoughts on him. Warren would’ve exploded today with this blocking.

Dylan McCulley @coachmcculley.bsky.social · 15d

I love TJ. He’s obviously slowing down a bit this year but he still impacts the game. He deserves to be up there with the best all time edge defenders.

Dylan McCulley @coachmcculley.bsky.social · 15d

Run tj on a stunt and queen forgets he has contain. Queen has improved but still has work to do.

Dylan McCulley @coachmcculley.bsky.social · 15d

3 straight touches for gainwell and the Steelers go 3 and out. I don’t know if I’ve seen him break a tackle this year.

I think 88 is either in the dog house with Rodgers or is one or two more mistakes from being there. I don’t think people ever get out of it once there. Rodgers doesn’t forget and forgive.

Dylan McCulley @coachmcculley.bsky.social · 29d

Steelers ILBs have been straight bad when asked to do ILB stuff. Frontside of run? Washed out. Backside of run? Slow to fill. Pass dropping? Covering grass. Defense won’t ever be as good as they think they are while this is happening.

Dylan McCulley @coachmcculley.bsky.social · 29d

What exactly does Gainewell do better than Warren? Running? No.

Dylan McCulley @coachmcculley.bsky.social · 29d

PQ has trips with a TE to his left. Zone spot drops (in the lo lo redzone) turning is hips to his right where there’s 3 other Steeler defenders. Easy TD to said TE where he should’ve been. If he didn’t take the false steps he breaks it up. Not good.
