More LB help.
Color me very f*cking concerned about Broderick Jones at the moment...
The Pat Meyer effect.He’s a hot mess
Probably.My guess is rolls over for Tomlin on command.
Same old same old.Probably.
Dude had one of the worst OLs in Carolina, gets canned and somehow lands a job in Pgh.
Steelers OL continues to digress... Even worse than when coaches Sarrett & Klemm took over.
I thought maybe it was due to the moving between LT and RT and not letting him stay at LT, thanks to the fact Dan Moore is incomptent and can only play LT (poorly at that).Color me very f*cking concerned about Broderick Jones at the moment...

But former Steelers offensive...steelersdepot.com
Strange move given the lack of depth. He was the main outside X/Y backup.I didn't think Watkins was bad wondering if they have plans to bring in another receiver or WIlson is just that good.
