Russ might be worse than he was in Denver.

Was Payton right.

The Steelers have attracted some bad football players and ideas.

It feels like how Detroit had to flush the entire organization.
Of course he was right
We all knew it and suspended logic … it’s Tomlins real saving grace and skill
The annual belief that something fully apparent isn’t real and something will magically change
It was worth kicking the tires on Wilson and Fields… cost almost nothing. Now the challenge is avoiding the risk-averse temptation to bring either back. They cannot bring either back if they want to get somewhere.

One more game of Russel Wilson is about all I can stand. The absolute only thing he’s able to do anymore is throw it deep down the sideline. Everyone knows it, but it’s still the basis of the entire game plan - hope we fall on a couple fumbles and Russ hits 2-3 moon balls (a phrase I’m physically ill typing and hope to never hear or read again after this season mercifully ends).
Well, luckily, Russ’s skill set matches up perfectly with what Mike Tomlin wants the offense to look like! If they could just execute a little better…

It was a worthwhile action to do. We see the good and bad with both players fully on tape for 18 weeks. No way should they retain them.
I will say, just another dead end into a brick wall, we're on door # 365 with Tomlin. No answers, no real change, just more deck chair re-arrangement and the Owner sits with is binky and hot toddie.

At the beginning of the year with the hiring of smith and bringing fields and Wilson …. We all Knew what was about to happen
It was obvious doubling Down on a failed strategy
The offense was not going to be more dynamic and better
It was going to be more conservative and dumber

After losses Tomlin has continued to blame execution and TOs (knowing full good and well many are simply random)


It’s Wilson’s fault for INTs, it’s Kenny Pickets fault, it’s Pickens fault … it’s everyone’s fault but the conductor who is picking the musicians, training them and telling them all what notes to play and in which order.


This has become an absurd joke. Dont believe what you see but believe what you wish to be true

I'm so sick of the BS about the problem being execution by the players:
.
  • YOU picked the players on this team
  • YOU picked the coaches whose job it is to teach the players to execute.
  • YOU decide who does and doesn't play.
  • IF the players YOU put on the field don't execute the way you want them to, YOU can make the decision to bench them and put others out there (unless of course no one YOU picked can execute... if so, again, that's on YOU).
.
If execution really is the problem, that's still on.YOU!!!
Too risky to change personnel or coaching or scheme or playcalling!!! It could get worse!!!

On this we will disagree … it was fairly apparent what these two qbs were at this stage in their respective careers. But I do agree that we were never going to go and get a more dynamic about … Wilson was purposeful as he will function in this hideous offense

It was always going to be a dead end … due to a combo of poor qbs, poor skill positions, overrated D and a very specific plan on O and general game theory

I would love to believe at some point this Groundhog Day would get tiring even for Art II...but it sure doesn't look like it.

At least it's looking like the Bungles will be eliminated.

The only constant in the last 20 years

But surely Tomlin is just a victim of circumstance

Blew my mind when I found out that the reason we went from the game plan that produced 520 total yards and 44 points is because Mike Tomlin believed Cincy's defense had vastly improved over the last four weeks since the first matchup and didn't think the Steelers could replicate that game plan.

So Tomlin made a deliberate decision to go run heavy this time.

I'm sure he was scared of Cincy's improved turnover numbers, even though half of the turnovers came in one game against the Titans.

CLASSIC living in his fears stuff from the man who "doesn't live in his fears".

Em effer lives in a echo chamber made of fears


He wakes up, has a bowl of fear washed down with a hot cup of afraid. He offsets that by having a plate of bad decisions for lunch and tops it off by enjoying a hearty meal of total lack of self awareness and blind determination for dinner
