    I was about to post some Sanders highlights to remind people how much of a magician he was as a player. Dude could make 4 people miss in a phone booth. Barry had a lot of tackles for losses and played for a terrible franchise and was still a freak.

    I know its hyperbole but they went too far. Barry would have 5 TD’s and 300 yards this year if he was in our backfield. Half the plays where Najee and Warren are being hit behind the LOS, Sanders wouldn’t have been touched.
    +1. You got that right. Now I will give thumbs up to anyone that makes a good football post.
    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.

      You have missed the point.

      He'd have more for sure. But, he'd ALSO be struggling if the only time he was on the field was for him to run the ball. You cannot TELL the defense the play and expect success.

      Even with his bad OL in Detroit, when he was on the field, there was at least a threat of something else besides "run Barry up the middle". He was in on pass plays as well. The defense had to play him with some reasonable amount of honesty.

      Why do pass rushers do better on 3rd and long than when there's a pass on 1st down? Because they know the play.

      Well, Canada is telling the defense the play by simply bringing Najee in. Like I called out last game it was nearly 2 of every 3 plays he was on the field, it was a run to him between the tackles.

      Would Barry have more than Naj? Absolutely?
      Would the Steelers run game still suck with Barry given the same circumstances as Naj? Absolutely.

        Given your recent criticism of Naj's personal life as reason he might struggle, I doubt you'd know a good football post if it smacked you in the face...

            you need to lighten up Francis.

            You have no issue talking down to people yet anytime someone jokes you, you get all in your feelings.

            you opened yourself up to this when you went gossip rag and tried to slander Najee?s sexual preference.

            funniest thing about that post is asking grown men to slide into your PM’s for favors. That post is dripping with.. irony.

              It's probably just you have a top player at his position possibly available and the Steelers are just window shopping.

                I’m sure a lot of teams are “interested” in knowing what the Colts will accept. I find it a bit ridiculous that they won’t pay him or think he isn’t worth a decent contract yet they want premium picks because he is too valuable to give away for less.
