Steelers need to learn from this game.

Move on and don’t lose again.

 

unlikely - but nice thought.

This offense is paralyzed w/o Pickens

 

They had 150 yards today

 

TJ has a lower ankle injury per Tomlin, no idea when he will return.

 

JUGGERNAUTS!

all these stats I have been reading about this offense, i said 'let's temper this until we play some NFL teams." Now we will see. With Pickens out, we are in BIG trouble.

Smith does not have a CLUE what to do now.

I'd start by starting Warren next week.

Where is the Bengals game plan - DUST IT OFF!

 

Our WR room is horrendous without GP. If him and Watt are out against Baltimore we might as well stay in Pittsburgh.

 

Please do

 

yes, well - if they are both out, correct - we won't win.

even if BOTH ARE IN, we may not win.

that is how it goes and how the schedule is shaping up.

we are evening matched, I hate to notify most here.

 

at least the Ravens Defense is closer to the Bengals then the Eagles

 

They need to learn stupid penalties cost them points. They should know by now that they aren't good enough to overcome penalties, unforced turnovers, and uncomplimentary football. The offense has to help the defense stay off the field.

 

They totally abandoned the run. If they could have established something there it would have helped.

And I haven’t seen so many guys run free in the Steelers secondary in a long time. Talk about a total coaching game plan mishap.

 

they had been doing that well, BUT they had Pickens most of the year and were not playing too many tough teams

 

Art II needs to stand up to Goodell and the NFL more. The fact that the Steelers have this gauntlet of a schedule is ridiculous, not even including the 3 games in 11 days issue.

 

you can't keep running the ball......IF you don't get first downs!

 

it would not look so bad, if they had not lost to the sissy Crygirls, Dolts and Clowns.

We would have had plenty of games to spare. Should have entered this stretch with 1 or 2 losses, not 3......

 

I agree 100%. Warren should be the starter all the time. Naji jumps around to much.

 

We should, but there is 0 chance we sit Naj. We've been so intent on making him the NFL leader in touches by a non-QB that I don't expect it to change. Today was the first game all season that Najee's touched the ball less than 19 times. Absolutely wild. We have capable players behind him... I don't understand why we've gone so long trying to make him work. Some poor team is going to give him WAY too much money in the offseason. Glad it wont be us.

We can withstand a Watt injury better than ever before with Highsmith/Herbig/Smith. Not saying its ideal, but it doesn't flat out lose us the game like it has in years past by forcing us to start PS players like Malik Reed and Jamir Jones. It is apparent however, that we cannot withstand a Pickens injury in 2024. We might be able to sneak the win if we get 14 back. Baltimore's defense played out of their league last time (and we made some of our own errors in there too), and I expect us to look a lot better in that regard with a healthy Pickens. I just hope he's truly healthy if he does go. I would hate to see us panic and send him out there too early because we know we can't win without him and have him aggravate it.

 

Pickens is likely out until at least Cincy he has a grade 2 partially torn hamstring.

 

I've seen the speculation, but I know we are "hopeful" for Saturday's game. I wouldn't rule him out until then just yet though. If we drop another game in Baltimore without him because we cant move the ball (again), I'd be surprised if we didn't rush him back for Christmas Day.

 

What the Steelers learned today that they were beaten by a much more talented team. The Eagles have the best roster in the NFL and it showed today.

 

Hopefully with Watt out the coaches will actually start doing their job. I think they are too reliant on Watt making the big plays to bail them out

 

I disagree that the Eagles are A LOT more talented than us.... We have an incredibly talented roster too, especially on defense. The only difference is that the Eagles offense is more talented. Barkley is a ton better than Naj, Hurts is better than Wilson at this stage of is career, and while GP is just as talented as AJ Brown they have a reliable #2 WR in Smith and we don't.... I think our defense is just as talented as theirs, and tbh probably more so. They might be slightly more talented overall, but it isn't vast.

We get enamored with "we aren't that talented" because we get to see our team make their mistakes every week. We don't see the Eagles' shortcomings on a week to week basis (or any other teams). Their fans are just as hard on their team as we are on ours. With GP and Watt back in the lineup, we have enough talent to win it all for sure. We just have to weather the only injury we couldn't recover from until 14 gets back.

 

The Eagles have the best roster in the league, the Steelers roster is above average but not in the same ballpark as the Eagles.

 

I hope they learn how to tackle better from this game and cover better in the secondary, the Eagles had open receivers the whole game.

 

Considering they're already in the playoffs, and won't get the bye anyway, I don't expect George to be rushed back. If he's not 100% in the playoffs, it's one and done.
