They don't go under center much when he's healthy, they are near the bottom of the NFL is % of QB under center and % of play fakes, again this is Conservative Mike's offense, remember everyone bitching about Ben, saying he's holding the Canada offense back because he refuses to go under center or play fake because he doesn't want to turn his back to the D??? Well Ben isn't here and neither is Canada, any guess who the one person that is still here is?

I tried to find it with no luck. Until this last game I sure thought we were running far more than we had been the last few years, but that is certainly just my non-charted impression.
Under tomlin, the steelers moved from a primarily under center team to a shotgun spread team. We abandoned tge Erhadrt style offebse with Gaily's modifications for arians Air Coryell system.

When we had Pickett and Fields, The under center thing wasca big deal because both operated far better under center, but we ran mostly from shotgun

The Arthur smith system is almost all under center... we didnt do a lot last year cause it was new... this year the excuse is Rodgers preference

Im guessing its a tomlin thing to avoid sacks or something goofy like that
 
Arthur Smith is nothing more than a hack, which fits perfectly with Tomlin's legacy of assistant coaches. Smith's reputation was built around running an offense that featured Derrick Henry in his prime days. A monkey could have done that.
He had two 1,000 yard receivers when he was OC with the Titans....OCs...good OCs adapt to the personnel they have.
 
On the Pat McAfee show today, they showed the differential stats from the game, and the Bills were +191 in rushing yards, the largest rushing differential in a Steelers game since 1955.

Tone Digz ripped into the Steelers as pretty much everyone on this board has, but he brought up something that seems SO long ago...we went 32 consecutive games without allowing a 100 yard rusher. And now we're setting records in the opposite direction
Austin has the answer ready for next week... " Keep watching" to quote Mike Tomlin in his after Bills game PC.

Patriots have the 3rd best passing offense. Their WRs are Stefon Diggs, Kayshon Boutte, Mack Hollins, DeMario Douglas, Kyle Willaims and Hunter Henry at TE. Not exactly a stable of elite talents.

Oh, but that's because Drake Maye is a rising star.

San Francisco has the 5th best pass offense with Brock Purdy and Mac Jones at QB. WRs Kendrick Bourne, Jauan Jennings, Ricky Pearsall. TE George Kittle (missed 5 games) and Jake Tonges

Rodgers is not his HOF self but he's not washed. He still has an arm and is probably around the 15th best QB in the league. In other words, the steelers do have enough offensive talent to be much better than this.

Yes. 100% it's largely scheme issues. On defense, as well.
 
My big question is why did a healthy Mason Rudolph line up in the pistol?



that would have required an adjustment……….. we know all about adjustments…….




Salute the nation
