Steelers 2024 thread

Personally the games are boring as hell. Nothing exciting about the offense at heir Tomlin won’t relinquish any responsibility to his coaches. Not wasting my Sunday afternoons watching paint dry. Get rid of Pickens the petulant child he is.
... Lemme remind you mates that not many of us believed the
Steelers would win more than 6 or 7 games this year.
The lads ARE 3-2. ... Gonna have peaks and valleys throughout
the season. ... Other sides got many of the same problems.

... Let's all try to hold our water a bit while we continue
to let this programme play-out. Would a record of 5-3
after 8 games IMPRESS people??

They will never win a game of consequence with Tomlin as head coach.

He "lives in his fears", he coaches to try and not lose the game instead of to win the game. Good example is the play call of an end around to a 4th string back to settle for the field goal.

He gets outcoached too often. Switch head coaches on Sunday and Pittsburgh easily wins.

He continuously makes obvious errors when choosing to challenge or not challenge a call.

When Patrick Queen was signed there were stories of how much better he played without the "green dot", so what do the Steelers do? Give him the green dot and he has been unimpressive so far. Could this also be the reason for the defensive communication problems?

What's up with Roman Wilson? A 3rd round pick can't get on the field with this receiving corps?

Pickens should not have been allowed to take the field with that eye black writing.

Agree. I’ll bet Art3 wasn’t too happy with that. Great way to represent the Steelers. Tomlin said he didn’t know. That’s a lie.

Particularly when it comes to Tomlin. He bows down to these divas! It’s absolutely insane that Pickens hasn’t and won’t be suspended. Tomlin benches offensive linemen for bad attitudes. Why not receivers?
Once again, we have on tape Pickens not giving close to 100% when not getting the ball and not a damn thing will happen!

Not a good look for a grown man when his dad has to fight his battles and make excuses for him.

Forgot to ad Harris coming on to the field in Indy throwing up 2 middle fingers. Tomlin has no control over the locker room. All he cares about is having a team good enough to keep his non losing season streak alive, the hell with what it costs the franchise.

The Steelers O line were roiding in the 70’s. Lambert, and most of the defense didn’t.

It'd be an interesting trade off, Field's athleticism for Wilson's experience.

Here we go. D gets trashed and the play calling on offense is mundane. And throw in a drop by Pickens. SMH
