That sounds crazy. Patterson is 33 and ran for 181 yards last year for a 3.62 average. I don't think he is at all an adequate replacement for Harris at this point. Harris improved last year and...

The question is after you trade Harris for the 3rd rounder, who do you have in the backfield? Warren taking 380 touches or Warren and who else? You never answer that because there is no adequate...
Don't yinz ever get tired of ragging on Tomlin and Feltdizz, I am shocked, you are a sell out, traitor, etc. etc.!!!
Only kidding! I seldom weigh in on the endless Fire Tomlin disputes..I still...
Knee jerk negativity. I think he'll make the team. There is not a lot of competition in the secondary and the dude and has size and athletic ability as represented by the explosive 40 in vertical...
Weather is not a human player. Of course all the other elements, Mason's improved passing, the OL and etc. have to play their part in the drama. But as usual you have been overly critical of Najee...
You're not exactly right about Najee either. I would say he has had good season even without the 1,300.00 yards and he has been coming on strong in the later part of the season. 312 yards 4.3 yrs...
I disagree with statements trying to downgrade Mason's play by saying he did what he did against bad defenses and Baltimore backups. With the long NFL season, no team and no defense is playing their...
Right now Mason has developed and matured overtime and has become a very good QB. He is the best on the roster at the time. I don't think Pickett has reached his peak and in time could become...
I know Tomlin will be blamed, but when the lead up to games involves many fans and commentators expressing that this will be rather easy, I do think it affects the mental preparedness and effort of...
Belief they are going to win and overconfidence that the rest of the season is like a piece of cake are different. When fans start saying it, then it bleeds in the psyche of the team.
I remember...
Overconfidence is a a jinx. The Steelers have been winning close games and every NFL team has players. i HOPE the players never adopt this attitude. Overconfidence is why they lost games and some...
Even though the posters that like to bash Tomlin, and the commentators and booth official said they play was a touchdown and would have been overturned. I doubt it. The commentators and booth...
Pickett overall looked good. They targeted the middle of the field passes much more and that helped him be more effective. His few deep passes had great touch.
Have to give Harris his due, because today he was the man. 99 yards and 6.6 ave. He ran hard and was productive. Warren only 3.8. So it seems the tandem splitting carries roughly is a good...
I wish people would stop blaming the OL for Harris' deficiencies as a player. He just does not have a top gear or many moves. Warren gained 129 yards against Cleveland on 9 carries. If they would...
Throws to the middle of the field are not necessarily risky. Certainly there are QBs that are finding receivers "wide open" in the middle of the Steelers defense regularly. They are not throwing...
There is more to it than Broderick Jones starting. Jones is at right tackle. The running backs are seeing gaping holes in the middle of the line and on the left side. They are not exclusively...
He looked like trash Sunday. He was afraid to throw over the middle. Is he being told not to throw risky passes? probably but the passing game was far below the line.
In most situations, I think he looks smart by easing rookies in the starting lineup. You can put promising rookies in before they are quite ready to handle the complete workload and all the...
In your infinite wisdom, you haven't got the slightest idea who scouted him or how he came to be drafted. The Steelers have a bevy of scouts who scoured games and colleges for prospects. Colbert...
I'll put a little different spin on Kenny. The opening drive was good and they scored a TD. A step in the right direction. Again no Ints or turnovers. Showed inaccuracy at times but he did play...
I know the Najee Harris supporters will attack in force but I think Pickett is better QB than Harris is a RB and the Steelers need a sufficient running game to support Pickett while he develops and...
You just can't admit that you may be wrong but Pickett definitely looked good even if it was mostly in the 4th quarter, when they needed it the most, which is a great thing.
The team scored 24...
The Pickett haters just need to calm down and wait for the 2nd half which is when Pickett starts to cook. Pickett had a good game. This might have been his best. He hit a lot of clutch passes ...
Kirk Cousins is actually a really efficient and effective QB. What he lacks is big game and come through in the clutch moments. You think you're putting him down by making such a comparison but if...
