        Well I think Steely McBeam does suck but I'm not a yinizer just a fan.
        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. ***

          Kahn going for GM of the year!
          I mean, it's a great pickup, especially if he starts at slot corner, but does Kahn get any flak for not having a viable option until King fell into his lap?

            Seriously, is it just me or does this team seem to be trying to set itself up for a playoff run?

            Uh, isn't that the stated goal of the franchise every year?

              You mean like Corey Trice?

                I think you missed a little bit of context from my comments and perhaps some of my reverse sarcasm but thank you for the reply anyway. Hope you have a wonderful day.

                    He has position flexibility, and he fits what the Steelers need here. This isn't like signing a 33 year old and trying to squeeze whatever is left out of him. This is a player that should still have some meat on the tread.
                    Really nice move. Our secondary has come a long way since season end.

                        7th round flier? Slot corner is a starting position in today's NFL.

                          that's the GOAL of every franchise.

                          Hey did I mention? My goal is to be a billionaire... some goals are more attainable than others. This is like trying to win with a rookie QB and bad o-line. It *can* be done, but it's gonna take some things falling the right way.

                          If instead my goal was to be a millionaire and started selling my possessions? That's where Kahn is... It's attainable and he's doing everything he can to get to that goal

                            no.. not really.

                            when you clear the books and have tons of cap space and go from spending $60 mill to $140M in FA on contracts its a clear sign we are making moves.

                                Nah. The goal is 0.500 or better season. The standard is the standard...
