“Well that de-escalated quickly!”

Scenario: Relievers can’t find the mound, let alone the strike zone. Pirate announcer “What’s Shelton gonna do?” My answer—-Worry about who’s gonna be second out of the pen a week from next Friday, given pitch counts, weather, and who’s gotta go to Altoona to save $8.53! Poor guy has a lot to think ...

the reason i said i didn’t believe it is because the article claims tomlin intentionally lied to these guys - i don’t believe that. he may have been obtuse or non-commital and not upfront but i dont think he lied to people. that is not a solid long term method for a coach Bob Prince (and others) wo...

I don’t care what Watson’s record is against the Steelers, everything he’s said is true and we all know it. “We do what we do!” Watson isn’t the first player to come right out and say it. The Steelers scheme on both sides of the ball is a simple as a high school programs. They try to win with perso...

Bednar Blows? Man that sucked. I think it's possible Bednar is still not 100%. He looks really bad and has pretty much in every save opportunity (3) he's been in so far. 3 blown saves is not good. Let's see if he goes on IL, or is removed from the closer role for a short time. Chapman can handle it...

Bednar Blows?

Even as the President of the Mike Tomlin haters club, I dont belive this story at all. This is exxageration for shock value. There is no way a professionbal organization does nearly any of that -- not even the Rooney Tomlin clown show Toml-ooney (and I’m claiming the trademark) says “Hold our Iron ...

As a Hall of Famer said, “We may never lose another ballgame!”

Really loved the look of Jones today, phenomenal!

“They keep pulling me back in…”

Justin Fields flashes and has ton of talent and he's obviously an elite runner. But, the negatives are extreme: Int - 3.1% Sacks - 12.4% Fumbles - 38 Among starting QBs over the last 3 season, the INT and sack percentages are both dead last. I don't know about the fumbles but can't imagine anyone h...

So, when do they actually start playing football again?

Russ is still a 1 year rental, so there has to be some sort of bigger picture plan. They still need a center, a right tackle, and they capable starting receiver to play opposite Pickens +2 back up quarterbacks You have to assume they’re going for receiver and free agency, because you need that pers...

So what becomes of Cole Holcomb? Assuming he returns to health does he become a somewhat pricey backup?? Is he cut in a salary cap move or with an injury designation??? Ideally I think you'd want Queen and Holcomb starters with Roberts the backup to Queen. Holcomb was having a good debut season, an...

DJ gone? Halle-flippin-luja!

A talking head speculates that with this oc hire the Steelers are committing to not only Tomlin, but the running game, particularly as it’s to be led by his favorite, Najee. In my opinion, if anywhere near true, this is criminally insane. Might as well dissolve the whole franchise. I wish the Rooney...

Scapegoats: Smith/Pickett Or Rooney/Tomlin Discuss Pickett and Tomlin will never be blamed for anything. Three years from now, Little Kenny will still be blowing chunks, and there will be people still blaming Canada. And if you haven’t figured by now that Tomlin is beyond reproach, I don’t know wha...

"Can Smith optimize it in a scheme that Rooney and Tomlin want, and that our roster was built to do. I hope the answer is yes." the biggest thing that concerns me in this, is i read that Smith uses the same oline blocking schemes that the oline has struggled with the last 2 seasons to start. it has...

If the former also results in the return of the best OL coach (Mike Munchak) which Pittsburgh has had in decades, also good. I keep asking this question, but can’t seem to get an answer…yet I keep reading/hearing it over and over. Where is the notion that Mike Munchak could be returning simply due ...

Scapegoats:
Smith/Pickett
Or
Rooney/Tomlin

Discuss

Fifth year option for Najee makes a lot of sense. It takes him 5 years to get to the line of scrimmage!

Folks can't use the quote function so I'll respond here. Rooney literally just said; "It's time to win playoff games right now." That means that scratching and clawing our way to 8 or 9 wins isn't going to be good enough . Scratching and clawing our way to 8 or 9 wins won't secure Kenny's starting ...

What youns really gotta love about this is that Tomlin won’t even have to exert himself at all to fuck this up!

S O S
For those who don’t know, SAME OLD STEELERS
LOL!

Problems with new oc include nomenclature, which was obviously a difficulty before in that so many guys were on so many different pages so often before. I’m sure that will be referenced as an excuse for the eternal cycle of fuck-ups we’ll continue to see on the field. Notwithstanding the herky-jerky...

Just my opinion, but there’s too many Harbaughs.

It's good to be King.

Um, in da ‘Burg the peasants are revolting!

Big point of the game. Lots of people automatically blame MR and I question that considering our WR's have history of being dopes. Has there been any clarification or someone taking responsibility on this play? Isn't it possible that DJ ran his route too deep and/or didn't come back hard enough? Po...

Why 2023 was a disappointment——because the team stunk. People used to say “kill Cowher” for losing afc championships, now NHALS is glorified. Diddled way too long with Canada. Still hey diddle diddle with Najee. But they did manage to manufacture a bona fide qb controversy to keep the talking heads ...
