    I run Muth/Wash/Pickens /Naj/Green. I would even pass out of that with confidence because the D HAS TO assume run.
    so gentry is your answer.
    I’ll assume they would like to use 3 TE formation in that situation.
    Of you don?t use it there, when will you ever use it

      No, not Gentry. He is not mentioned at all. Only mention is that he is effectively repklaced by Washington.

      In view of the fact that Mike Tomlin has matched Cowhers record I give him the designation:

      The Coach Formerly Considered Less Than Cowher

        1. If we DO run he is a preferred blocker. And having little DJ on the bench sells the intent to run more if we DO pass.
        2. Who is more likely to catch a deep pass. DJ excels in getting free short with quick bursts but does not tend to be effective beating people with deep speed
        Pickens is not only better the longer the route, even covered his contested catch prowess makes him the better choice.
        I think having Pickens is fine. Maybe even better. Particularly for blocking.

        I don't think we're throwing deep in 4th and 1. And I think DJ is more likely to be able to get open in a must convert situation. And while it wasn't the case last year, before that he was also very good at YAC.

          The days of Gunner or DJ laughably trying to block a DE are hopefully over. I think they were hoping the DE would be laughing so hard he would fall over instead of rushing. No wonder the running game sucked a few years ago....

            Some of the offense execution and play calling are best classified as what was the coach thinking. This goes for ILB's last year covering wide receivers. The OC and DC are to blame as well as the head coach.
            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 game plans of such are what you get when you leave it up to Tomlin who is NOT the most cerebral coach you want game planning (vast understatement). Here's hoping that Kahn has stepped in to reduce the amount of actual game planning Tomlin is involved in.

              I really fear a case of run, run, 3rd and longs popping up too often. And to keep putting Kenny in 3rd and longs is not giving him a fighting chance.

                Last night Green had a horrible 3 snap sequence in the second quarter that probably sealed his fate.
                Obviously the standard is the standard.

                  While this tweet is about Jones, keep your eye on Green;

                    It’s sad but also kind of funny that the Twitter post is supposed to be about Jones but all of the comments are about how awful Green was on that play.

                      He just can't seem to keep his feet. But I want it to work out because it's pretty funny to see him play FB. Like the guys at Madden used the wrong character model.

                        Green should never take another snap from Center as long as he lives , he IS that bad

                          Lucky Rudolph wasn't injured there.

                            That is ridiculous. Not the role of a GM.
                            Khan ain't got that kind of authority.

                              Certainly not anyone to act all braggadocious about drafting for center, as Colbert did.

                                Kahn is gaining BACK the legit authority AWAY from Cool Shades of a legit GM. That much is getting obvious.
