Pickens & Metcalf

[maowv]

The problem wasn't George Pickens, in spite of his immature behavior.

The problem isn't DK Metcalf.

Players are better when they play for other teams and other coaches.

The Steelers coaching staff cannot get the best from their players. They haven't in a long, long time. We have a sub-par offensive coordinator and a sub-sub-par defensive coordinator.

It will never change with Mediocre Mike at the helm so until they remove him, this is what the Pittsburgh Steelers franchise has become.

We are far closer to being the Cleveland Browns than we are a Super Bowl appearance.

Dk Metcalf is 100yds off his career average pace. 8 yards per game! He sucks, but nothing new. He is the same guy the Seahawks booted. He is giving Joey Porter JR a run for his most penalized title.
What a huge waste of money and a waste of QB.

You are right on Tomlin, Smith, and Austin
BUT
We have no idea how good GP would have been with Rodgers
No idea how good Rodgers would have been with GP

We do Know GP was better than DK even with Pickett, fields Wilson, Rudolph throwing the ball.
Pickens is an elite talent.
Elite talent shows no matter where they play.
Tomlin has coached some ELITE players who performed despite the coaching and scheme

Tomlin just ran out of talent
Nobody is elite, half the offense doesn't belong in the NFL
A WR2 and a trio of bums was never gonna work, no matter who is QB
Rodgers gets a pass just due to the lack of talent and playcalling plus the injury.

Kahn traded it away and didn't replace it ANYWHERE on the field.

The Browns are closer to a superbowl team personnel wise.

They have the best Pass rusher in the league
Judkins is the best Rookie RB. By a wide margin.
Fanin is a better rookie TE than we have on the roster. Guy started as the Te#2 and has 100 yards less than DK Metcalf on the season with much worse QB play.
These 2 guys have produced more in 9 games than every single draft pick on the Steelers over the past 5 seasons COMBINED.
They have one of the top Defenses in the league.
Our defense is the worst ranked Steeler defense since the 1980's (according to Deebo)
