    Sometimes You take the players because they are there. Look at how many times we've taken LBs now, and with Cowher, and we had players in that position already good. I just hope it works out. Also they take them because it's a business, and if You can get the same work for cheaper, like a guy on a rookie contract, You do it.

    Unfortunately 3-4 years is unrealistic to establish a line. There should be positive growth each year if you are adding pedigree. I get it we have had injuries but so does every team. The sardines are way too high now to wait for guy to develop. They need to hit the ground running.

    let’s put it this way. It will be year two and three for everyone on the line this year with the exception of the RT. I will gladly eat grow if this oline is at least a top 15 unit in this league this year and is able to allow this offense to develop a solid run game and give Rodgers enough time to be top 15 in lowest sack%.

    you eat crow and admit Meyer and Jones have to go if Jones plays poorly and if the unit performs in the bottom 15 of either category.

    I don’t think that’s why they took Jones. They traded up for him and passed on Gonzalez an obvious need. He was targeted by them. They said that after the draft. Plus Moore’s contract was cheap so in this case he was clearly looked at as a replacement if Moore.

    It’s seems pretty obvious to me Kahn is making the team how he thinks it should be. He’s jettisoned damn near everyone Colbert drafted or signed. Hell he probably watched yall whine about cowher’s players for 15 years and said nope

    You didn’t admit you were wrong when you posted lies about what I said

    You just moved the goalposts as usual when you are wrong :shrug:

    Im still awaiting the apology

    You are a liar

    As you grow up you should try to learn there is nothing more important than your integrity

    Apologize or be known as a liar your call

    I know you want a fight in this forum big time but find someone else since it won't be with me....You need to stick in the topic and stay civil instead to attack the others for nothing

    I'm talking about they thought enough of him to offer the contract after watching all his game tape.

    Training Camp is hard to draw any conclusions but two things are true this is a make or break year for both Jones and Myer.

    80/20 rule... 80% player, 20% coaching. Been this way for a long time.

    btw, if coaching is 20% then doing some maths; 17 games X 20% = 3 1/2 games that a win or loss is directly attributable to coaching. This could be time management in a close game, a critical 3rd/4th down play, or simply enough, a bad gameplan for an opponent (i.e getting outcoached).

    I agree but the difference between the o-line coach that the steelers had in 2013 vs 2014-2018 were just massive
