Steelers 2024 thread

I like a QB who can run, makes the game more exciting. Hopefully Fields stays around when they dispatch of Wilson. Got tickets to the Steelers-Swifties game on Christmas. Not so sure I wanna go watch them get stomped, might give them to the kid and his GF.

Fields is 13/19, 0 ints in the Redzone, Russ 7/24, 1int.

Numbers don’t lie

Priceless

Steelers fans will get it eventually... we have a Hall of Fame coach and the problems the team has had over the past half decade had very little to do with him.

Tomlin is finally out of the shadow of late-era Ben, Kevin Colbert's dumb personnel choices, etc and we're back in the driver's seat.

Omar Khan deserves a raise. Anyone bitching about this Steelers team, up to this point in the season, is a miserable person who just feels the need to always be mad about something. Originally Posted by tommy156

surely "shit inside of their-own bed" last season.

The fact that they've now turned things around is nice
- but doesn't make up for last season's coaching debacles.

Or the season before's.

ALL coaches get criticized. 7 years of mediocrity and not winning a playoff game deserves scrutiny. If they don’t win at least one playoff game this year, he’ll get his fair share of criticism. As he should.

Blaming Tomlin for Kenny Pickett being a shitty QB won't fly.

Nobody's above criticism, but Tomlin has been wrongly blamed for so much shit over the years, that a lot of Steelers fans don't even seem to realize what they got in the guy.

As for local talk radio, I'm almost always more accurate in my predictions than any of those overpaid haters are, so they're just laughable to me, at this point. They don't know the game of football any better than I do.

I dunno. Wilson’s numbers are declining. I’m not saying to bench him. But I didn’t think Fields should have been benched. Wilson has to pick it up.
