Now why did the Steelers get rid of Lebeau again?

This is what happens when you load up on glitzy skill position guys and neglect a defense.  You get lit up by the Jags.  And to think some of you WR jock sniffers want to spend 10 to 15 million on a guy like Allen Robinson smh

Steelers actually had one of the top defenses in the league this year. Killed them when Shazier went out. He's not quite Luke good but he is their leader on D and the brain of their D as well as extremely talented.

If the Steelers had Cam,  they'd be damned near unbeatable (not that I'd pay Robinson anywhere near that kind of money...or any of them).

The Jaguars dominated the Steelers in Week 5, picking off Ben Roethlisberger five times in a rout. This time around, they can’t expect that to happen again. The Jacksonville defense is as good as it gets, but the Steelers seemed to get it together on offense down the stretch, even if Antonio Brown’s health bears watching here. If the Jaguars are to win this game, they have to open things up. If they think they will line up and win with their running game, they are nuts. They need to take some shots. They can’t count on the defense to have another day like it did in October. The Steelers are the better team. And they have the much better quarterback. That matters in January. Steelers will be moving on.

Watching the Steelers performance here really makes you appreciate the fight the Panthers and especially Cam put up against the Saints. The Steelers overall had the talent to get far in the playoffs compared to the Panthers and they came out flat from start to finish.

Come on Top Dawg... Big Ben is an elite QB, they wouldn't be any better with Cam. Big Ben actually fits their offense and the rest of their players better than Cam would.

26, or 28 points should be enough to win a playoff game, whether you are the Panthers or the Steelers.  Wilks' defense getting dunked on 3x by New Orleans killed us, just like Steelers getting embarrassed by Blake freakin' Bortles.

The Panthers actually came close to winning last week unlike the Steelers.

      Can we get to 9-8?

      By Mike2.0 · Posted

      A winning record would be nice, but I still have us winning around the 6 to 8 game mark. Realistically we should beat the Jets and Saints, that gets us to 5 wins. After that, we have to face a lot of potential play off teams and our divisional opponents. I think we’ll win 1 or 2 of those games to take us to 6 or 7 wins, perhaps 8 wins if we can spring a further surprise.  Is that enough progress for head coach and QB? I’m not sure, it will depend on performances and output. That said, it’s nice to be back in a position where we are thinking about the play offs.

      Eight of Bryce Young's nine wins have come off game-winning drives

      By Mike2.0 · Posted

      I would tend to agree about not falling into the trap and paying a below average QB, but sometimes situations can “force” a team to pay that QB. For example, if we play ourselves into a 9-8 like record, then what options will we have in the draft? Or do we avoid the draft and trade for or sign someone in free agency?  I’m not convinced by the 2026 QB draft class. There’s some intriguing prospects but no one that really screams “draft me”. I’m not sure we’ve got anyone really that stands out as a trade candidate or free agent signing. So although we might not want to commit a big money contract to Young, him playing well and showing progress might force the team’s hand.

      Trade Chuba?

      By Mike2.0 · Posted

      Realistically we would be looking at no more than a mid round pick for Dowdle or Chuba. Are we really that desperate for a mid round pick? Not really. I would much prefer us utilise the two RBs in a 1-2 punch similar to how we used D-Will and Stewart. After all, Bryce is not Drew Brees. He won’t throw for 300+ yards and carry the team consistently as a passer. So having a strong running game with a 1-2 punch will be beneficial to him, and it will also be beneficial to the RBs because we can spell them and not overwork them.
