Steelers-Bengals game thread #RunThroughTheJungle

I feel sorry for the few bright spots like TJ and Najee who are wasting their time here.

Harris is a great back, just not what was truly needed with that pick. 2 years fixing the OL, then you go after a top RB.

They're really suffering without Alualu. Add in Tuitt and the Steelers have one of the most dominant defensive fronts in the league. Injuries have killed them, but the linebacker play and tackling behind them has been atrocious.

Actually, they are really suffering because of their QB.

Again, when you pay a single player the money it takes to get 3 decent players, your depth will always suffer. As much as I love Watt, his contract number really hurts the depth. Not saying he needs to go, just that you can’t whiff on supporting players, EVER.

The problem is you need cheap backups that are good enough to start and thats done through later picks being developed

His contract numbers haven't even hit yet. He is not the reason we have no depth at OLB

Ok, but just wait. Ben’s numbers are contributing to that problem, as well as others

Those numbers aren't impacting the team yet and the Steelers have about $11 million in cap dollars right now. Please explain how his contract is hurting the depth on this team? How about not signing Hilton to the cheap deal he signed? How about not trading Ingram because he was pouting?

This is quite possibly the worst Steelers game I've ever watched. The Lions game was arguably the worst game I've ever attended. This team is bad.

And yet the Pittsburgh media will not hold Tomlin accountable.

Anyone still want to defend the coaches or this pathetic Oline?

The coaches aren't the problem. You have to have down years whether from injury, lack of talent, old QB... the party doesn't go on nonstop.
 
I'd call this an *** whooping, but it's so much more than tgat.

Great think we let Hilton walk for peanuts to a division rival

That is what hurts. Trying to be cute and think we dont need Hilton and thinking we could just plug in someone and replace him.

Look at CIN. This is like a Super Bowl to them. I guess when you have had the success PIT has had over the years, whenever you come to town, you always get the opponents' best shot. And most years, PIT could withstand it, but not with this God forsaken roster. Got a QB who simply cannot move. Got an OL that cannot run block and can barely pass block. Not a good combination, but Colbert and Tomlin thought combining all this with a college OC in Canada would be the answer and simply they were so so very wrong.
 
They won't have to worry about tanking it.. They're doing just fine naturally.
