    Kicking the can one more year.
    How is it possible to have the best owner, best front office, best gm, best HC, good/great drafts every year and good FA acquisitions every year, but only have 3 playoff wins in 14 years?

      They're doing up all these contracts with "voidable years" now.

        We can’t cut everybody. They need to move money when they can and this is exactly what they did.

          exactly, and I expect Tuitt to be restructured soon also.

            Maybe Ebron found his home, as extended for multiple years i believe.

              I hope not
              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. ***

                Please tell me you are joking. While he had an ok season, he has some bizarreness about him that I would worry about. His SB tweet was one of them.

                  yep. I know some are frustrated but their criticism wasn’t based on film. Most of Ebron’s criticism was for smiling and for dropping 2 passes last year in a game where everyone dropped passes on a Tuesday at 4PM.

                  and I believe we still won that game yet somehow that became Ebron’s whole resume.

                    What is our cap space now?
                    Help me find my post proving I am a Yinzer!

                    I will tip my hat to Tomlin if he has a winning record and the team makes the play-offs in the upcoming season.

                      nothing bizarre about Ebron. Its funny how a big guy smiling is seen as bizarre. Like beating himself up and acting frustrated would make the outcome of a play or game different.

                      If he cried he would be called gay. That’s a joke but someone on here actually believes crying on the sideline means you could be gay.

                      SB tweet was dumb but not anything to get worked up about.

                      Bizarre to me is driving thru a drivethru naked or knocking down your babies mothers door to beat her up.

                      or getting accused of sexually assaulting a bunch of masseuse’s you met on Instagram when you are worth $140 mill.

                        Like every other team at this time of the year.

                          Pittsburgh Steelers,

                          Please split @Ebron85 out Wide and line him up at Slot more this Season, please 🙌🏾. He will win at the line of scrimmage every time. I know y’all saw what he did against the CB from the Texans this Szn. 1 v 1 on out there, TD Ebron!


                          Eric Ebron has been busy this offseason training with Rischad Whitfield, the man they call “The Footwork King.” And Whitfield has some friendly advice to new offensive coordinator Matt Canada. Split #85 out more in 2021. He tweeted out that plea along with a clip of Ebron training to prepare for the upcoming season. Pittsburgh […]

                            * I think you know my feelings about Ebron. I don't dislike him, but I don't see him as an earnest and hard worker. I see him as seeking approval, a pat on the back, at every turn. And after all of the approval that's been heaped upon him, he barely gives an effort as a blocker.

                            * Yes, I'm getting personal with Ebron. I really hate to do that. He and his teammates and coaches can rally around him and tell him the press doesn't have a clue, but my guess is that these criticisms in the daily clips file are welcomed by coaches who want to hear less from Ebron off the field and see more from him on the field.
                            * Prove me wrong. That's fine. That's oftentimes my purpose in my life here. But I could not care less how he likes the rookie who has been catching everything and ended the spring getting pats on the back from all around after a diving catch in the end zone. This kid looks fearless.

                            * And Freiermuth didn't go around seeking those pats on the back, either.
                            Wexell nailed it....sums up my feeling on Ebron. And his observations on Freirmuth is the reason Ebron will have his last season in PIT.

                              Reading the tea leafs , Ebron won’t be back after this season so there’s no need to dwell on it too much.
