Man are we thin at CB

I'm officially calling a losing season, bad coverage people at DB and LB. No the Jacksonville guy won't solve problems. This is who we have. Time for truth, the OL stinks, and our prized runner ism't explosive. He not running people over and isn't quite fast enough to get outside. Small sample of on the rookie back, We'll see. The offense has lots of problems and no heir apparent to Ben who's damn near 40.
So, what don't you like about Joe Schobert? His machine-like tackling numbers? His league-leading amount of interceptions among all linebackers over the last two seasons? The confidence the Steelers obviously have in his coverage abilities and overall prowess by already assigning him the green dot?

I'm not quite sure what you're (not) seeing with Najee Harris, because he looks plenty explosive to me. He runs with power, sees the hole, and makes people miss. Exactly as advertised.

These two guys are playmakers, and they're going to make a huge difference for the Steelers this season.

But from what I've been hearing from both here and the football outsiders is that the Steelers D will still be a force to be reckoned with.
I am very troubled by your post. I don't know what to think anymore.

just think, much like the rest of us do, that coach is a ********
 
How do we know the ol sucks it’s younger new philosophy better suited for the lineman they could be like the 2017 jags be a huge underdog and unheard group that surprise pp.
l chukes was not meant to play rt he is a athletic lt looks more comfortable at lt c rg seems fine, waiting on banner we need him badly hopefully Dotson moves up to first string soon

considering Cooch is the same guy who said a certain safety with an overly large cranium who would suffer too many concussions since his head was too low to the ground made it into the HOF on first ballot, I feel damn good about this assessment.

Coolie, looks like we need someone that speaks Jive again.

Are you feeling numb on one side of your body? Is your face droopy? You might be having a stroke. I am having one trying to read this.

maybe we trade for a starting caliber CB before the beginning of season. We might very well trade a few of our own to get more draft picks for 2022.

I wonder if TJ and a 4th rounder would get us William Jackson III away from washington????

I agree. :D

I like the way you think. no TJ? we would lose just enough games to be able to take your David Animeh dude number 1 over all
 
Nelson really wasn't that good last year, though.

I think they simply chose Sutton over him, as they couldn't afford to give big money to three CBs.
I’d disagree with this. It’s damn hard for CBs and he was dinged for giving up the TD vs. Titans that actually should’ve gone against Fitzpatrick — who took wrong angle and missed tackle on 80-yard TD.

CBs in our system have struggled for 20 plus years—there is a tradeoff for all those sacks

Be sure to get into my OFFICIAL SEASON WIN / LOSS post. It will be up about a week before the season starts. It's simple as all you have to do is give win/los/tie and a couple tie breakers and then sit back and watch the results.

Have a great day



Salute the nation
