    Then someone else should step up. We didn't move Greg Lloyd, Porter, Harrison, Haggans, Green, or Woodley up , and down the line. They either played their side, or covered. Difference is, when one of them got doubled, the other ones made them pay for it. Now if its not old Man Heyward, or Watt....everyone else gets stymied.

    Crazy, this ***** better show up in shape and not disappear in the biggest games. Tired of him in the 4Q huffing and puffing on the sidelines while we lose the last 5 straight. A lot of money to spend on ego, to old and too slow. Should have gotten a 1st round pick for him and shipped his ass out. I guess we mortgaged the future so Tomlin has 1 more shot at glory. I would love to be proven wrong but the last 2-3 years have seen injuries and lost steps, 104 Million guaranteed.

    We still didn't move the players around, and we just started not blitzing as much a few years ago, when we lost other players outside of the OLBs that could actually get to the Qbs, or make a tackle if it was a run blitz, or cover if it was missed. Hell we led the league in blitzs in 2020, or 2021 if I remember correctly, but sometimes You don't have the right players for it, on the front , and backends.

    Yeah but how is he ranked on the most important stat, the omnipotent pass rush win rate. You know the stat that measures how many times you get pass the blocker so you can whiff on the sack.

    Contracts don't pay for prior stats, they pay for future ones. This is too much money IMO. He seems to be getting more injury prone later in his career much like his brother JJ.

    He disappears because the coaches overused him. Had the highest snap count in 2024-2025 season. A majority of those snaps were against double team. By the end of the season he was gassed. Utilize him better than having him bull rush every play

    i personally thought khan had watt where he wanted him. Signed for one more year, then could franchise him for another. Then let him go and get a comp pick for him.

    now this.

    I believe "The Bus" took less money in hopes of seeing a Championship.

    After CBS Sports posted a graphic comparing their career earnings, J.J.’s $129.7 million over 12 seasons vs. T.J.’s $123 million in just this extension, J.J. responded:

    “I swear, if this guy even lets me begin to reach for my wallet at dinner…”

    When you blame one player for the outcome of a team sport, then you have to bring things back to reality
