Even though I don't want to see Ryan Tannehill in a Steeler's uniform. Anything is better than Kenny Pickett. I personally don't see Arthur Smith as a great hire. Unless you're comparing him to Canada. I'd of preferred a high-octane passing offense coordinator that utilizes its best assets Pickens, DJ, and Pat. Maybe he can bring in a free agent of value from the Falcons.
Mike Munchak is a different story. I'd love to see him back. But he's been here done that.
The guy went from adored to dumpster fire real fast in fans minds. He has the top offense a few years ago and Henry ran for 2k.
People have been too harsh about him. Give it time to blow off and see where ya land.
Bijan owners wanted more yet he had more yards than any Falcons rookie back ever and most of us can name the famous Falcons backs in their history.
London had like 110 115 targets each year but he's supposedly not used enough either.
Ridder fumbled 100 times and Heinicke would follow a pattern like he was darn determined to be average- great play, bad play or vice versa. They had an impressive line that played poorly. You're not winning in the NFL without a good line and QB and that's also essentially the Steelers problem today.
His Falcons team had a lot of talent that suited his style and the Steelers style has some similarities. Morris will cut some that'll be Steelers I'm sure.
What did Snoop say? We want a 2025 offense not a 1980s offense? Well Arthur's default is 80s with some creative calls to get a favorable matchup. So ya didn't get that change.
Tannehill hasn't been good for two years. He's probably going to be reminded of that during his free agency and become a backup battling Rudolph.
Henry is a free agent and y'all overrate your backs. It's not debatable when a back is "the man" so it isn't Najee or Warren. Henry or someone else could be added. See the Bus or Foster or Bell- you knew who the man was.
As far as Tomlin and Smith- the same rugged style and old school toughness stuff. It's not much of a change at all.
Personnel wise- Smith adores Cordarelle Patterson and so has every team he's been with. Suppose him. Does it matter that it's Tomlin's team? Or will he just love a big fast guy, that'll play anywhere, and say yes coach a lot?
1000 yards for AJB and Davis, 1000 for Pickens and Diontae would be nice.
The Steelers have always utilized the TE a lot and so has Smith.
There's quite a lot of overlap and same ol same ol here.
It's still going to come back to OL and QB play.
If Munchak rejoins the Steelers or Titans, they have to hire him like two or eight assistants. Record everything, memorize everything, learn everything, so that when he leaves again there isn't a giant dropoff. Everywhere he goes, when he leaves the line falls apart.
I love the matchup stuff. Shift here, shift there, and woop look at that, a LB is covering the WR.
I love his big man offense and I have no doubt Steelers fans will too. A few plays here n there, he'll put the biggest WRs and athletics TEs out wide, then run a RB wide right behind them and good luck to the small DBs stopping it. It's a big hitting dominant play when it works.
I'll shush. I know I like him far more than most..
