Admit it People

Terrible T. Edmunds is just not very good.
I don't care what round he was picked in.
Again late in coverage, and takes bad angles with oak tree stiff hips.

Some say play him down at the line. So when they do that he gets eaten up by blocks , and misses tackles.
I'm sorry I've seen enough. He's just not good.
This is coming from one of the most optimistic fans on here.

 

LoL. Guess I'm the only one.
Did nobody watch his play last night???

 

Ok, I’ll help you admit it

At your service sir

 

You should really warn us before you get negative about something. It's kind of a shock to the system. I'll let it slide this time.

On a lesser note, I totally agree.

 

I kind of agree but he's the best we've got this year.

I was more jarred by Sutton's play. Nelson dropped off last year from 2019, but he's better than that.

Just too many question marks to compete for a title this year, I'm afraid. If you need one or two guys to work out you got a chance, feels like we need 7 or 8.

 

That long TD Play was due to a poor angle by Tre Noorwood. That said, Terrell Edmunds should have taken a better angle himself. Beyond that play though, there is not much to gauge him so far in this very young 2021 Preseason.

 

I still think he can play in the box and pressing slower TE'S and bigger slower WR'S in coverage.As a deep guy he is very bad he was a boundary Safety in college as has been most of our CB'S we draft..It is a problen those extra yards and area they can't cover I blame the Team fot continuing to select those type guys..'

I think he is a great tweener type guy and the entire system has to be catered around him . That system would look something like a 3-3-5 or 5-2 Monster IMO..In the 3-3-5 he would be the middle playing depper than the other 2 LB'S his run support would be both outsides keeping big OL off of him.. In a similar fashion he would sid deeper as a Monster behind the OLB and DT with 5 guys on the line this would allow him to have 3 lanes to run fit into without free OL driving him down the field.. Usually on the strong side his coverage is always short zone or mainly Match upon a TE...

 

Geez Guys. Go back and watch last night, and just watch Him . He made one good play the whole night. The rest was poor coverage, poor angles, and piss poor tackling.
Also the man looks like a weaker Jarvis Jones when he gets blocked....when he gets block He's truly blocked.

 

You do not cater a system around Your worst player on D.
That be like saying...Well if We changed the D(screw the other players made for the D we're playing) Spillane could be great. LoL

 

There were only 10 Steelers on D that TD Eagles HC said?

 

killebrew has been playing very well the last two weeks if nobody has noticed.

 

Okay, negative Nancy, I think we've heard about enough of your complaining around here. Who do you think you are, @Seven4Steel ?

 

Admit it people: Even though it's pre-season 2-0 is nice to walk around with.

 

T. Edmunds still sucks. LoL

 

So was the first 11 games of last season, before the wheels fell off. But they meant nothing either. Maybe we should give Tomlin his bust in Canton for preseason game wins as well.

 

I know. I know completely not like me, but when I watched the game a 2nd time.....I was Like.....Dang this MF sucks. LoL.
OK. I'm done with the negativity.

 

could be why no 5th year option was offered.

 

I agree ,but Spillane could never play great .. So basically he needs to go to a Team already using the Tweener system that has 2 or 3 good man coverage CB'S ..It would take years to build the D around Edmunds ..I was not suggesting we should just that it could be done..

To continue to use him deep in Cover 2 is a mistake..If I was Coach I would put him on Hadens side and play a inverted look with press zone behind it..So Edmunds would be the man on the LOS and would blitz or have force or the short zone .. All this would help him stay in a smaller area and use his Athletic ability with minimal changes on that side..

Of course we could look for a better fit as a Coer 2 guy and try to trade him..

 

Hate to say it, but we are re-building and it takes time, we do not have some of the best players, but I'm hoping they prove me wrong... It's all about our line play and opening holes for our running backs, if we can establish a good running game then Ben can open the offense up.
We have the running back now, just need the big guys to open some holes let him run...

 

Meh

once upon a time Steelers lost preseason games and won Super Bowls

 

The long TD was 100% on Norwood. His job is to shoot in. He needs to make the WR step lateral first. Norwood sat back and let the WR get to full speed straight ahead. Norwood was sitting still by the time the WR was running full speed.

If he shoots in he either makes the tackle or makes WR run around him and it gives the rest of the defense 1 or 2 more steps to close.

HACK

 

They could go 0-4 in the preseason and I wouldn't give two sh*ts.

 

He wasn't worth a first round pick. I dont think anyone is defending that anymore. But The Steelers philosophy is not to go after well rounded sure draft picks. They usually seem to either go A. Full technician, narrow but high ceiling in a specific skillset or B. Very raw high upside physical specimen, high ceiling, if they take to coaching.

I think T Edmunds sounded good to Colbert because of character and intangibles but yeah.. Not the best first round pick..

BUT!! The Steeler philosophy hits. Our franchise is still churning out HOF type guys on the regular while other franchises flounder. Remember that the Cowboys took Taco Charlton and left us TJ Watt. The rest of the league is ass and can suck it.

 

The teams aren't interested in the score of a preseason game. It's all about player development. Kinda sucks imo.
