Is it time to start Warren over Harris at RB? He looks so much more confident right now.

Wow watch a catch and fucking Tomlin didn’t challenge.

You're still watching this garbage?

Najee playing like Lev Bell behind a bottom tier run-blocking OL is becoming a glaring problem.

Time for Warren to get an equal split at the very least.

Also, bench Claypool and start Boykin. I’m sick of seeing Chase. Dude is worthless. Drops easy catches, runs sloppy ass routes, and rarely gives 100%.

Steelers team performance summed up in one image.

Make that 2 images.

We are the new browns

The defense is shit. The OC is shit. But Pickett looks good considering what he's working with.

Agree on getting Warren in on more plays and Claypool out.

Pickens needs to be the first option in this offense.

Both coordinators are shit... Saw a tweet that referred to them as Hellen Keller & Stevie Wonder... and i've never seen a more perfect comparison

I don't understand how you see the level of dropoff in the defense after losing just TJ Watt.

Here's an interesting stat... Pickens has just 17 fewer yards on 11 fewer receptions than Diontae. Diontae's drops have become an issue we can no longer ignore.

Freakish individual effort, rather than scheme.

 

[FaCe-LeE-uS]

I can handle watching an ass beating, but when I see coaches laughing on the sidelines I take exception... I saw DL coach Karl Dunbar laughing it up with some players at some point in the 2nd half while the team was getting its ass handed to them on a silver platter.

Fuck that nonsense.

And then you hear this... Confirming they have a culture problem. We got pissed at Ben in his new podcast for calling this out in week 1, and here we are.

Do we know it isn't scheme though? Going from Butler to Austin. Don't believe I've seen a deep dive on the schemes yet. We know Tomlin will eventually takeover if he hasn't already.

The defenses have always been run by Tomlin. Butler and Austin were/are just errand boys carrying out what he wants.

What we saw from Watt week 1 wasn't scheme. It was him just being an unstoppable force of nature. Like Troy Polamalu before him, he just is on a different plane of existence.

Remove them from their defenses, and things fall apart. A well-designed defense can compensate....

Not knocking TJ Watt's supernatural abilities... But a defensive cast that still has all-pro level talent on all 3 levels should be more sound than this. $100+mil defense. I know injuries are playing a factor now, but that wasn't much of an excuse against the Jets, Pats or Browns. This team is routinely collapsing on 3rd downs and giving up HUGE chunk plays.

It SHOULD be, yeah.
