Some seem to think if he gets off with a slap on the wrist legally, the NFL will follow suit. The NFL will come down on him, and the worse this looks, the harder the hammer will fall. Walking away from the scene of a crime you most likely committed while not even bothering to check on the...

If the Steelers take Mims in the 1st, they really need to move up and get Frazier in the 2nd IMHO. Can't make another dumb Humphries move and skip out on a day 1 starting C.

The D tends to lay eggs come playoff time. As for the QB situation, I agree this is the best they could do and both on the cheap, but they left this QB situation dangling for too long. I wished for it to be addressed in the 2020 draft, yet here we are and the search will continue next year in my...

But again, he's an upgrade from KP and will fit into the offensive identity that this regime likes. The offense they want to run is another story.

Dump offs are not always available. His proficiency to get sacked last season became an art form. The guy is not what some think he is. https://youtu.be/Z_kATqNQ0bg?si=5OEI7jlPn7FJLrMd

My fear is going into the season with just Pickens as the lone threat outside. Teams will eliminate that once they catch on. They can keep one safety high over the top while pressing the other down into the box for the run game. Even during Arthur's best years as OC, he never produced a...

You are right in that the bar can't possibly get any lower than the last two seasons on offense. Running game is an essential part, but you simply won't beat the elite QBs come playoff time by just controlling TOP. You need both the ability to score quickly and also the ability for long drives...

As is, he'll fit right into MT's vision of an offense and is an upgrade from the worst QB last season. I'm guessing that's enough to get some fans excited.

Yes because he's obviously not worth that price tag as well

Payton had to dumb down the playcalls last year which is the main reason he was ready to dump Wilson. He's going to fit right into what the vision is in Pittsburgh. As long as they can get a lead against mediocrity and let the D do the rest, the status quo will remain.

I'm not saying he won't be, because he is at least a better starter than KP.

Russ plays scared, hangs on to the ball too long, is skittish in the pocket, and will dump off if his first read is covered. Watch any film from last year and you'll see it yourself. Payton got rid of him for a reason, and he has a much better offensive mindset than anyone in Pittsburgh. Read...

You are talking about signing a guy who might not even play again, never mind just missing 2024.

Dude won't even be ready for the season with that knee injury he suffered.

Fields is best when the game is simplified to a one-read limited to the left or the right side of the field. Last thing you want is him having to survey the entire field going through his progressions. He also rarely throws with anticipation and would rather wait until his read gets open. Both...
