We look to rebound.

We need to see improvement.

Facing at tough defense at home this week.

MUST get Marvin Mims more involved and establish a run game which sadly will be VERY tough vs a very good Steelers run D.

Looks like the opposing teams game plan will be stack the box, stop the run, make the rookie prove he can throw against NFL defenses.

Until we prove our passing game is a threat, the run game isn't gonna get many chances...

If we can't use our explosive WR's and continue with just utilizing the bigger WR's and can't run the ball it will be a long first year for Bo.

I am sorry but Lil J Humphrey should not be a bigger part of the game plan then Mims or Franklin.

Agree and let me add:
Neither should McLaughlin have the same number of rushes as Javonte and Estime combined.

McLaughlin is a nice change of pace back, but the two primary backs - in my opinion - should be 1. Javonte and 2. Estime.

Agree. McLaughlin was overused last week.

I mean if we run the ball better and don’t play from behind we probably see less of him but he was still overused.

I feel like

Mims
Estime
Elliss

And soon Franklin should all be on the field more than we saw them this week.

Well Pittsburgh has a much better defense than Seattle but a much worse Offense so it‘s still kind of a tossup.

Worried about going against this very good Steelers D. Should be low scoring keeping us in the game though. Need to show improvement if not a win. Don't like that it is Fields as the Broncos D made him look like a pro-bowl player last year. He was 28-35 for 335 4TD's 1int. Yes the Broncos won but damn they made him look good.

We are sending Estime to IR. :(

Burton added to the 53.

Kaden Davis WR back to the PS.

Sounds like Estime should be back in 4 weeks at least.

I think he got hurt on his first carry when he did the ole hurdle and came down on his ankle. Got one more carry after that then was done.

We could even elevate Badie if we wanted to and keep Watson inactive on the 53.

Badie technically beat out Watson but we felt Watson has more upside and couldn't be stashed on the PS.

Don't be shocked if we elevate Badie and keep Watson inactive this week.
