    It’s easy to say it’s the foot injury but we really don’t know we are just speculating because of what was said in preseason.

    If his foot is that bad and Tomlin is allowing him to play then just another moronic move for coach dumb ****.

    Harris confirmed it himself. Then he re-injured it in the first game of the season.

    Yes, Tomlin is being dumb. Warren looks like he can handle the job.

    I think he finally realized it was time to sit Harris in the second half today. Hopefully, Warren gets the bulk of the playing time next week. I do think the foot injury is the problem. Harris just can't plant and go like he did last year. They should probably shut him down for a few weeks, but I doubt that will happen.

    He was explosive and powerful at times last season. Hell, he even had some moments last week, but whether it is the added muscle, the foot, or a combination of both, he isn't the same back right now.

    The extension they gave Johnson could turn out to be a big mistake. He just can't shake the drops. If anything, it has been worse so far this season.

    The one of his hands that was nearly intercepted today was not a good throw, but it was a ball he has to catch if he's going to live up to his contract.

    Yea I’m not in a very good mood. If it was a one year thing I’d say screw it get a high pick and let’s go next season. I don’t think this is a one year thing at all.

    They have some pieces. The defense really isn't this bad, at least not if they can get healthy. They may have their quarterback, which is huge. It is easy to think they are going to suck forever after a stinker like today, but that most likely isn't the case.

    Not forever but they have lots of holes and several unproven pieces such as QB. Not really sure what so many on here see in KP to think he is this guaranteed NFL starter. It could easily go either way I just think people want to believe, which is fine.

    Cam is slowing down
    Middle Linebackers are weak overall as is the depth at both OLB and MLB
    Secondary is missing pieces at corner and safety. OL is missing at least 2 upgrades RB I’m starting to question WRs you have to question both DJ and Claypool TE now has 3 concussions already you can’t fix all that in one offseason. And that’s assuming Pickett is legit!

    Johnson pays too much attention to what is said about him. It’s in his head again. He barely had any drops last year, now they all seem to be going through his hands. Claypool is dropping them, too. Pickens is going to be the alpha dog sooner than I even thought he would. Guy has stickem on his hands.

    Pickett isn't guaranteed, but so far, the signs are positive.

    They definitely have some holes to fill. That is yet another reason why, if they did end up with the first pick, they would most likely trade it rather than take another quarterback given that they seem to believe in Pickett.

    It is definitely in his head. His also really sloppy with his footwork. He blew what should have been a great play by failing to get both feet in for the second consecutive game today.

    he didn’t get a huge contract. He got above average wr money. While he isn’t performing up to par, the Steelers got away with that contract. He certainly gets far more money on the open market this past offseason.
