The Titans have something to work with though. Levis certainly looks better than Tannehill and Mike's better than Willis. They just need to focus on developing him the rest of the season to try to figure out if he's their guy moving forward or if they need to be looking QB early again.

Yeah he has shades of Darnold. Good arm, you can script some stuff with him and he'll make some good throws but there will be picks

It’s crazy how consistent Mike Tomlin is. 

It is. Pickett is not good but they are 5-3. It’s like smoke and mirrors but they always keep games close and always seem to have a good enough D. Roethlisberger became a shell of himself and Pickett has not been a top QB but he still hasn’t gone below .500. He’s pretty impressive. The only knock right now is that he doesn’t have the offensive talent, which is why they only have one “good” season in the last 6 years. They did sneak a second time into the playoffs but that was more due to Lamar getting hurt. They haven’t won a playoff game since 2016. They’ve been competitive but that drop at the QB spot (and WR) has kept them from being contenders. It’ll be interesting how long the keep with Pickett.

I can see the Steelers targeting a guy like Jayden Daniels this next draft.  They need to go for the boom/bust type at QB. 

The post-Ben era has been a lot of guys who have super apparent, limited skillsets and meh ceilings.  Rudolph, Trubisky, Pickett, time for them to take a gamble at QB.

Pickett ain't it. That's for sure. Hell, that was for sure when he was playing in college at Pitt. I have no idea how the Steelers deluded themselves into that blunder. They've been so good for so long by avoiding dumbass mistakes like that.

That's a crazy stat.

https://www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootballtalk/rumor-mill/news/steelers-are-5-3-despite-having-fewer-yards-than-opponent-every-week-this-season

Through 8 games, the Steelers have been out gained in yardage 8 times yet they're 5-3.

16 straight seasons without a losing record isn't luck.  Mike Tomlin frankly still doesn't get the proper respect he deserves in Pittsburgh.

If they had drafted a certain guy who is 6th in the league in passing yards and passing TDs like I thought they were going to they're probably legit contenders.

    • The lack of discipline has seriously been our downfall the last month. Seems like we just went off course this last month and Lee won't address it. You can't just live and die by the 3 when you can attack the paint and at worst draw a foul
    • Great season regardless of what happens. From starting out 4-14 to ending 44-38 is incredible progress and future is bright from here. I do think we can beat the Heat and then win on the road against either Orlando or Philly assuming Embiid doesn’t miraculously return sooner. But if not, a higher draft pick is nice too
    • I know a DT that's asking for a trade: 🤔 maybe a home discount can be worked out. Dan Morgan could create up to $80 million in space through restructures of stars like Derrick Brown, Jaycee Horn, or Taylor Moton. They could also include players like Tershawn Wharton ($18.6M cap hit) in the trade to balance the salaries. Carolina Receives: DT  Dexter Lawrence II New York Receives: 2026 2nd Round Pick (No. 51 Overall): A premium Day 2 selection that fits the for  Lawrence  after his 0.5-sack season in 2025. WR  Xavier Legette : A young, high-upside receiver who provides the playmaking depth HC John Harbaugh needs for his offense. 2026 4th Round Pick: Immediate mid-round value. 2027 4th Round Pick (via MIN): Future capital acquired in the  Adam Thielen  trade.  ----- Stone Forsythe* (another young player as a potential trade option)provides immediate offensive line retooling for HC John Harbaugh.    John Harbaugh's history in Baltimore proves he values draft volume over individual superstars.    Just my 2cents
