WE HAVE NFL FOOTBALL TONIGHT

I remember not that long ago, the Steelers started a season looking unbeatable, but down the road just seemed to fold.

Can't remember if that was last year or before that, but I recall it happening. My Steeler fan friends were livid.

Didnt the Steelers win 12 games last season? I doubt they regress that much.

Oh they’re gonna be bad.  Might even finish last in their division .  Ben is done.  Their O-line sucks.  They lost their top 2 defensive players.  
 

the looked terrible down the stretch last year and will look just as bad if not worse this entire season.

Ehhhh Ben isn’t quite done. He had the fastest release in the NFL last season with an oline that ranked…as bad as the Panthers yea you read that right, that’s impressive…33 TDs/10INT/94 rating. He’s a savvy QB and most certainly good enough to win if his team isn’t poo 

Course another year has gone by-

I think he’s slowing down though and if the Steelers don’t treat him like an aging qb a la Brady like they tended to do last year, and build around that it’ll be tough

that said, still an elite franchise with superior coaching and a superior FO. Their rebuild will probably be 1-2 years (like other elite FOs) compared to Teppers ‘5 year plan’. Just sayin

    • I feel the same way. Bryce hasn't proven himself to be so good that he would clearly lap anyone that we'd bring in the compete for the starting job. I think the team is actually afraid to do that. If Bryce goes down does anyone think Kenny Pickett is solid option to replace him?. We can control him for 2026 and 2027. The problem is 2028. Unless he takes a massive leap forward ability wise, I don't see how Carolina can justify paying B.Y. $50 million a year. So far, Bryce has not shown that he can CONSISTENTLY carry a team. He needs to be carried by a strong offensive line, running game, pass catchers and a respectable defense. If he's lacking any of those things I don't think we can make the playoffs in 2026/2027 unless the NFC South is as bad (or worse) than 2025. Unfortunately, athletes and agents have EGOs! When he has a chance for a 2nd contract his management team will probably insist on a "market deal" and feel insulted if they don't get one. That leaves a couple of options if his play hasn't significantly improved. 1) Let him walk and test the market. 2) Franchise him for the 2028 season if you're still not sure about what to do. 3) Extend him to a team friendly deal that pays him below the "current market" which would allow the team to continue to build a solid team to support him. 4) Over pay him and pretty much ruin any chance of becoming a consistent contender. The last option is the LEAST DESIRABLE ONE. The 2026 season is a pivotal season for Bryce and the Carolina Panthers. The success of the next 5-7 years could ultimately be decided on how well plays the next 2 seasons.  
    • Thank god BigKat can't buy it because I'd be gone immediately 
    • Drake Maye ended up putting almost 300 on them lol. Bryce was stunned from the beginning to end. I know that's an easy comp for the Bryce truthers but no one else put up those puny QB stats against them all season long.
