Steeler defense

[PittPharm2002]

I was told he sucks and was one of the 39 components of the very intricate conspiracy to derail the career of Kenny Pickett and prevent him from achieving his inner Joe Montana. So I won't expect him to have much of a stat line against us.

It was idiotic to let him walk while eating part of his salary

guys, we are getting back after the bye, Herbig, trice, sutton, frazier too. that's pretty big news.

Herbig back, with Watt and Highsmith? Sick. Love Frazier. Sutton we'll see, who knows but it will help.

I doubt you can bench Bishop for Sutton. Sutton can play different positions. Depth.
Good problem to have.

I would love to know what position on defense you think the Steelers would be able to upgrade ?
WR's seem to be at a premium ? They are getting traded left and right for almost nothing.
Diontae Johnson just went to the Ravens for 5th and 6th round pick swap.

I'm fine with a WR. At a premium is because the tradable ones appear to have been traded. Not sure who else is available? I don't follow it all that much. For defense, upgrade where they can upgrade. I'd go for another pass rusher type who can get to Maholnes with Watt. I have no idea if available.

Well they have Highsmith and Herbig. You want more??
There are WR's available, Kupp may still spring loose, and Slayton from the Giants could probably be had.
Williams from Jets.
Other less intriguing available.

I am honestly worried about the defense if we get to the playoffs. The Eagles allowed the Giants to gain 119 yards for the entire game last week. The Steelers allowed close to 400 on Monday night. If a Giants' team can go up and down the field on us, what might Houston, Baltimore, Buffalo or KC do? We got run on by a rookie, and Slayton lit us up. Our backers cannot cover anyone and Minkah playing centerfield pretty much has made him impotent. He hasn't made a game changing play in forever. What good is it to prevent big plays if a team nickels and dimes their way down the field? I have a feeling if we make it, the offense will be fine, the overpaid and overhyped defense will let us down. Teams are getting smart and throwing some form of double team block to negate the Watt effect. Andy Reid and some of the other top coaches will not allow Watt to wreck their game.

Yep…you nailed it!

Ravens have lost to the Raiders and Browns this year. It's the nfl just winning is good.


Does anyone know if Holcomb is coming back this season? I saw the lockeroom on a broadcast and his locker is still there
