To the health of our quarterbacks. All he had to do was take a half step left and block the blitzing linebacker…..instead he chose to block the same guy that the guard was blocking thus causing a game losing sack and a hard sack on Lock. Stone is a bum need him cut now

It's a little hard to assign blame on this one. Looks more like a miscommunication, and we can't tell who that's on.

That and assignment. If Stone stops blocking his guy to go for the LB and his orginal assignment wiggles free for the sack, Stone gets an ear full/possibly let go.

That was an ugly play on what was a decent night for the OL in general.

It was an excellent defensive call by PIT. Let's give credit where it is due.

Don't crucify Stone. He doesn't deserve it.

Was that on Stone, or was the RB supposed help with protection there? It's hard to say.

Otherwise pass pro and run blocking looked pretty good today.

Lock says it was on him, and Carroll's initial assessment matched that. Sounds like Stone probably did what he was supposed to and they simply got fooled by a well-designed blitz.
