Steelers -Eagles game thread.

Steelers calling TO. Hoping to save enough time for one more 3 and out before the end of the game
 
He does. Pickett is 💩. DJ isn’t a #1. He’s taking away valuable experience
Pickens has almost been invisible this game. He has a bad attitude. I do not blame him for being frustrated and most blame falls on coaching, but most OCs in the league would love to have claypool, DJ, and Pickens
 
Ill live with picks like that kenny deserves some learning time he’ll get better

Sure. Be nice if he stopped overthrowing the middle of the field.

Maybe this is why they don't throw to the middle very much. He tosses up way too many easy picks.
 
So you're saying they should have set Kenny for a season and just stuck with Trubisky?
Not at all. I just think the difference is Him being a true rookie and a first pick. Mason is a better passer right now than either but he isn’t as mobile. He would have been killed today.
 
38-3 against the best team in the AFC.
35-13 against the best team in the NFC.

The Steelers are light years away from being good.
 
If you had to boil it down to one thing it's probably that when Ben went down in 2019 Mason got his golden chance and he pooped the bed. He had Villanueva,Pouncy,Foster, De Castro, etc. for an O-line what does Kenny have? It's laughable to even mention these guys names.............
had not thought of it like that as far as the OLine goes. Man, we used to have some studs. Now we are happy if we can get a 4 yard run.

I remember Mason playing and no, he didnt do great, but he never got to play unless Ben was hurt. I guess I just never felt Mason got a fair shot. Bringing in Trubisky was a waste of money. Mason could have started the season and turned it over to Kenny when Shades was ready to make the change. Not sure what Shades saw in Trubisky that made him better than Mason. Honestly, I think Mason is better now than Trubisky but he cannot get on the field. Didnt say he was better than Pickett when you consider all the valuable experience Kenny is getting this season. They should have just started the season with Mason and transitioned whenever it was time to transition to KP
 
The worst Steeler team in the last 50 years was the '88 Steelers with a 5-11 record. I remember that team with a young Woodson and Greg Lloyd. This team is worse than '88.
You remember Woodson on punt returns? Looked like he was shot out of a cannon.

I choose to focus on the positives. Team is learning. They're young and they'll improve over time. And secondly, they didn't cut away from the game this week to go to a more competitive contest! That's obviously progress.

It wasnt overthrown the LB tipped it. If anything it was too low or just a good play by the LB

A better QB leads instead of back shoulders him. He’s the only one (minus the one good Claypool catch) that looks like he’s alive out there
 
I’m going to say this. Start Rudolph next week. If we do we go 6-3 the second half.
And I'll counter by saying that if you're going to have a losing season, let the kid get experience. Then use that top 10 draft position to improve the big uglies.

I think it wouldn't matter so we might as well let Pickett get experience.
The QB position isn't our worst problem.
 
Lol, this team isn't going 6-3 down the stretch unless vintage Ben comes back from retirement.
Nope. Guys are open down field. Pickett is missing them. Rudolph at least throws to the correct receiver
