Pickens wasn't gonna have that production here but just a 3rd in return, yikes. Same offense for how many years now but hey fire Matt Canada. You can fast forward to next year and it's gonna be the similar result

It's the same thing year after year with this team. Doesn't matter if it's Old Ben, Pickett, Rudolph, Rodgers, Canada Or Arthur Smith. We refuse to consistently utilize the middle of the field. If you're a skill position player, why would you want to play here? Your talents aren't gonna be utilized to there fullest extent. Pickens gotta be :whew: that he got the fukk outta here because along with the stats he's now putting up he's gonna get PAID.

The Steelers were fukked from the moment they decided to hire Arthur Smith.
He was terrible in Atlanta. He's terrible in Pittsburgh.

He will be terrible anywhere he goes.

The issue for Pittsburgh is that they have a high floor, but not a high ceiling.
It's very difficult to justify a full rebuild when you're 6-5 but tied for 1st place in the division.

That said, look at their 5 losses so far:

Seattle
Cincinnati
Green Bay
LA Chargers
Chicago

4 of the 5 are playoff contenders.

Might the Steelers have won yesterday with Aaron Rodgers? Yeah, maybe. But I don't think they have the offensive weapons to win in January where they will need to dominate the clock, or potentially win a shootout.

From 2015 through 2025, the Steelers 1st round draft pick was Overall Pick #20 or later 9 out of 11 times.
I don't know how you get the elite talent to carry your teams when you're always picking in the back half of the draft.

But you tell me.

Teryl Austin is trash, and if Tomlin is calling the defensive plays he deserves to be called out for it too

Patrick Queen
"I think we’ve just got to be better, honestly," Queen said. "I think sometimes it was schematic issues that we had. It’s kind of hard for two guys as underneath defenders to try to guard two routes that’s overhanging off the hashes and stuff. As much as you know it, you’re trying to play the run, you’re trying to get back to the bang or whatever it is; it’s hard to do that. It’s kind of a bad spot to be in. But at the end of the day, we’ve just got to be better, try to recognize it and get back."

You could have drafted Shaduer Sanders

I have been saying we need to tank a year for a while now.
Yet that puts our black hc under fye.


So the steelers have turned into the hula dancer emoji on the topic.
