Does Anyone Care?

[feltdizz]

Our QB is old and can’t move his feet. I don’t think anyone has quit even though it looks like it with some of these 4th down plays.

I quit being passionate about Steelers football because there is no intensity or urgency on this team anymore. It starts with the HC. He should have been fired years ago when the team underperformed with superior talent. Management bringing back Ben and putting him in front of an inexperienced OL was a big mistake as well. My biggest question is why do we keep utilizing the Todd Haley offense? The dink and dunk is crap!

In conclusion, Tomlin, Canada, Ben and the offensive system should be exiled.

I agree with this...lets really start over but, that means it starts with the head coach.

I think it's more about lack of ability than lack of desire.

Although I do think that last series against the Bengals looked a lot like people not caring very much (after the game was out of reach anyway).

Without drastic improvement on offense, I don't see another win on the schedule. This may be the worst offense in Steelers' history, in an era that heavily favors offense. Week 1 seems a fluke. Our D was healthy and on fire. Bills probably weren't on their A-game.

Wouldn't that be something? 11-0 and then 2-21 after?

[feltdizz]

did you get a chance to watch Lamar Jackson pass for 316 yards against the Broncos?

Its probably time to stop caring about Lamar failing and focus on our own QB failing and setting us back 5 years.

I’m joking but seriously, how can anyone try to shamless gloat when our team looks like trash and the rest of the AFCN QB’s are running circles around us?

Because it's just become a child-like pi$$ing match between two people on this board who won't just let their personal grievances go. There's no one else continually bringing up Lamar Jackson in that context, other than these 2.

To say this team doesn't care is just plain stupid. If you looked at the faces on the sideline yesterday and believe that you're just pushing an agenda.

[Northern_Blitz]

in their pressers both ben and Ju took the blame

And I think this is a very good sign.

Don't throw team mates / players / coaches under the bus in public should be the number 1 rule on a pro sports team IMO.

If we keep losing games like this, the team might start taking shots at each other and tear itself apart.

Glad it's not there now and hope it doesn't turn into that.

I guess.. but at this point it might be the spark we need to start pointing fingers.. lol.

I’m joking of course but sheesh.. something has to change.

I hope that kind of stuff happens and stays behind closed doors.

I think we're usually pretty good at that...but we're usually not this bad.

I went back and forth for a long time but Steel Maniac actually admitted Lamar outplayed his original timeline prediction.

While he tried to double down and say he was still going to be correct I knew that was his way of admitting he was wrong.

Not that he has to admit it, we all knew
it was wrong after his second year.

I can't answer the question postulated in this thread but if the 3 games over the next 4 weeks are an "L" (meaning 50% of home games will be an L) how will the Steelers brain trust keep the team from not caring?

It looks that way because the QB is setting the tone. Doesnt look like the team has alot of confidence in Ben, hard to stay fired up when your QB continues to lay eggs on every drive.

And this looks like a strong possibility IMO.
