...great to see someone with a name not starting with a B step up and win a game for us...
A 96 yard KO return?? On top of almost 150 yards receiving?!?
Dang...
It seems he's going to have a great NFL career. I hope its with the Steelers.

Juju's emergence (and M.Bryant to a lesser extent) should create some favorable matchups come playoff time. Teams are going to think twice about double teaming AB all game. The TEs (namely Vance McDonald) could be a huge factor down the stretch.

JuJu Smith-Schuster makes history at young age
Steelers receiver JuJu Smith-Schuster had a strong rookie year. How strong? He became the youngest player in league history to generate more than 1,000 all-purpose yards.
Via the NFL, Smith-Schuster’s 143 receiving yards and 122 kick-return yards pushed his full-season total of combined yardage to 1,157.
The second-round pick, who turned 21 in November, has generated at least 1,100 all-purposes yards younger than anyone else in league history.
His 96-yard kickoff return for a touchdown in the third quarter broke a 21-21 tie, giving Pittsburgh its final point total of 28 — and allowing the Steelers to hold off Cleveland’s 24 points. And sending the Browns to the second 0-16 record in league history.
Steeler teams featuring stat-driven, me-first, fantasy-football-darling diva types such as Antonio Brown & Le'Veon Bell won no championships.
Super Bowl winning Steeler teams were built around a dynamic, in-your-face defense plus blue-collar, hard-hitting, no-nonsense football players on offense such as Hines Ward & Jerome Bettis.
We don't want Juju & Conner to replace what we lost in Brown & Bell.
We are counting on Juju & Conner to return us to the glory we once had with Hines & The Bus.
JJSS selection at 62 may have been different had Dallas at 61 not taken Awuzie n G Bay at 62 going with Josh Jones two players who were rumored to be very much on our radar. Not sure JuJu is a Steeler had those two been on the board but glad it worked out for us.

Awuzie.... yea I remember the collective gasps in the draft thread as he was taken right before us. Im thinking there were two others as well. The kid I wanted to see us get at the time was ILB Tim Williams from Alabama. At this point I can't even remember where he went to or how he did this year.
