    Captains

    The Steelers' players voted, and this year's team captains are quarterback Russell Wilson on offense, defensive tackle Cameron Heyward and linebacker T.J. Watt on defense and safety Miles Killebrew on special teams. I for one think it is not only the players who voted. Killebrew might not be here next year. Take a look at his cap # in 2025. Wilson is a rented player for one year. Heyward might retire in 2025. Nonetheless these are our 2024 Captains. Only Watt is guaranteed to wear the " C " in 2025 and as much as he is a HOF player in his prime, he is not a speaker type.

    Who will control our Diva's? Hewyward can help, but I think this is his last year here.

    Tomlin hasn't won a playoff game in seven years and counting. The earliest will be eight years. I guess that in Art Rooney's II, opinion is worth a 3 year extension.

    Our 2024 draft looks to be grade A. Our 2023 draft is an A. The roster is talented, but Mike Tomlin is still the head coach.

    *** Mike Tomlin is the best coach since the AFL- NFL merger that has not won a playoff game in 8 seasons or more. It's either him or Lewis. ***

    I think the biggest takeaway from the 2024 team captains is that once again Minkah Fitzpatrick can't get voted in by his peers. I mean there are many posters on this forum who claim Minkah is a great leader. I don't see it. I see the problems which Minkah causes by getting in fist fights with teammates and yelling at his coaches. Go ahead and call me a troll but the votes are counted and guess who isn't a team captain?

      Well, 9 other defensive starters weren't voted captain, either... I don't think it's too hard to see that TJ and Cam would be obvious choices for this role; doesn't mean Minkah's teammates necessarily have any kind of big issues with him
