20M is not a lot of money for a starting QB. Who do you suggest they spend money on at this point? Some top-tier QB the organization can bring in? Many QBs looked bad vs Houston. It was not unique to Rodgers. The O Line was terrible and no QB is going to hold up against that kind of pressure. I don'...

Many QBs looked bad vs Houston. It was not unique to Rodgers. The O Line was terrible and no QB is going to hold up against that kind of pressure. I don't think anyone here wants Rodgers back at 30M. You are arguing against a point no one is making. Rodgers was rated in the middle of pack for QBs la...

I have to agree here. Using Houston with their vicious D as your measuring stick is cherry picking. The O Line got murdered in Houston. Rodgers did not have much of a chance. Do I want him back for $30M, not really. I would rather roll the dice with Mason or Howard if he wins the camp competition. T...

Devin Bush was on the rise until a pretty devastating injury. He never bounced back from that while on the team. This would be an appropriate time to point out that Devin Bush failed to develop with Tomlin but has had some success and a major revival with the Browns. Failing with Tomlin does not mea...

Not excusing Smiths performance in relation to his salary but the offense was an abortion last year. He may thrive in another environment.

I do not need to see Jonnu Smith lining up as a running back ever again.

All we heard was that you (and others) were rooting for losses so that Tomlin would be gone. You were such superfans that the only way to get Tomlin out was for the Steelers to lose, and then you could return to your rooting for the team. And then truth comes out. Change did not happen exactly as yo...

Rodgers was adequate as a QB last year. He probably would have been better without the offensive shackles he was forced to play in. However, he did show his age on multiple occasions and had some really poor games. I don't want Rodgers back because if he returns, then Will Howard's development will ...

How do you not take the 3 there to make it a 1pt game with 5 minutes left? Baffling.

Why are you surprised. Rooney reportedly told the staff that they were free to find work elsewhere because the new coach is going to pick his staff. I would have liked Smith to stick around, special teams has been pretty solid for a while. Good for him for securing another position so quickly. If th...

Yes, it has been reported that teams have already reached out to Tomlin and have been rebuffed.

Sure sounds like he was fired.

It's been a lot more than 5 minutes, almost 3 days...has anyone even expressed an interest in interviewing Tomlin?

I believe the league rules are that a coach whose team is currently playing will be available for a virtual interview, but not for in-person interviews while their team is still in the playoffs. This means the Steelers could have an initial interview with an active team staff member but I can't imag...

People are floating all kinds of shit. How about we use the official interview list as a guide as to whom the Steelers are interested in bringing in? Glad it's there and not here. People were floating around the idea of Harbs to Pittsburgh and I wanted to throw up. Not because he's a former Ravens c...

A new coach should result in some significant roster change. I am not sure it would be considered a full rebuild but there will be a lot more roster changes than normal. I am interested in seeing how some of the doghouse players (ie Roman Wilson) get treated by the new administration. Also, to see h...

It was past time for Tomlin to move on and I am glad he stepped down.


Tomlin is an enormous part of the Steelers Legacy and he will be welcomed with open arms when that time comes.

They had Stroud completely rattled. There was a reason he was so poor. The D had Stroud seeing ghosts for a good portion of the game. quote=zeke5123 post_id=867156 time=1768313369 user_id=230] There is a misnomer that the D wore down because the offense sucked. The reality is the D sucked for most o...

Agreed. That 3rd and 15 play was a dagger. It was the beginning of the D buckling under the pressure of being constantly on the field. I think that was the play where Peyton Wilson turns his back and doubles the receiver going deep, leaving a huge open area on the field where the pass went. Outside ...

The same line has been repeated here for the past several years. Yet they have won 10 games two years in a row.

Just like taking away the big runs

Is there any doubt in your mind that if Sawyer doesn't get that sack that Houston scores a TD there? I don't even need to see the All 11 lol.

I don't need to see Jonnu Smith in the backfield ever again. He has done OK but Warren and Gainwell are better runners.

No one is accepting it. The fallacy here is if you are not 100% negative all the time that you are a happy with the current situation. I want the Steelers to win every game they play. I just pointed out that so many here that say they cant stand to watch are commenting on every play and faux saying ...

I hate my team but cant stop posting about them on a message board! Keep it up!. Bye! This isn’t the same sport as we watch. Greek said it in the other thread. I’m strongly considering just “switching” teams. I can’t take this shit anymore. Wipe your chin and don’t talk with your mouth full

Bye!

I was at the game in Baltimore. On the Warren catch and run TD. Freirmuth was wide open down the seam. Rodgers could have thrown up a lollypop for an easy TD. If you watch the replay after Warren gets downfield you can see Freirmuth peeling back to block. It would have been one of the easiest TDs th...

Considering there is no tape on this kid for a defender to study, lets not crown Cook yet.

He looked good tonight, and hopefully he can keep it up.

Again you are arguing against a point no one is making. Your logic is if you do not say Tomlin is the worst coach to ever stand on a sideline you must love him. Shhhh Two things can be true. Tomlin is a coach with a hall of fame resume. He also has stayed too long in this job and the Steelers would ...

Who is arguing that all is good for the Steelers? Anyone? Buehler? Look at my straw man over here. So Baltimore scored 14 vs the worst defense in the league. As per the logic here, Baltimore must have the worst coach in the league, who is a fraud, and the whole organization is a failure. :lol: Often...

They gained 9 yards on the first run

You are complaining to complain

Bears missing all 3 starting LBs so we start Gainwell and come out throwing instead of running them over. Brilliant strategy. Let’s see how it plays out.

I think actively rooting for the team to lose while on their fansite is troll behavior. My thought is, if watching a team brought you that level of unhappiness what was the point of watching that team. The most vocal critics seem to be the most active in the game day thread. I hate you but I can't q...

Is Buffalo a good team?

They just got curb stomped by Miami.
