    Rodgers. There is no scheme, unless it's a screen that says only throw to this player. That is on the Qbs.

    Smith was an average/below average player for 7 of 8 years before coming here. I’m not sure why Arthur Smith is so fascinated with him. I believe we are getting exactly what we signed up for

    He was a part time player last season for the eagles. Howie Roseman arguably the best GM said thanks for the memories. And who picks him up and pays him 10 large? :facepalm:

    He doesn’t want to play for a SB contender, Bills. He wasn’t going to bust his rear for us. Take the $10M, put in minimal effort and let’s hope the team sends you home early

    well....there is good truth to this.

    this is a reason was I was only mildly excited when this was the "2025 plan"

    but it's what TOMLIN wanted.....

    b/c THEY CAN'T DEVELOP A YOUNG QB!

    But Jonnu put up really good stats with Miami last year and good YAC, I didn't expect him to match those numbers but I thought he would be more productive than 4-5 yard catches. Khan made it worse by giving him a big contract for 2026.

    I warned you when they first signed him.
    That was his 8 year in the NFL

    He's not that old I thought he had something left and would be able to get down field more.

    every player on offense is disappointing .it is the coaches gameplan-To not plan right. See having Metcalf as #1 and only isn't bad--But you must throw to him always. Covered or not. IF he is great --he will get the ball. If its Gainwell or Smith throw them the ball, make a gameplan pick a player then go with it--Anything is worth a try--You want 2 players pick 2...if you want to run----> RUN<---- it down their throats. Stop messing around ---dink dunk--- we are not the 49ers of Montana's time. Do things different.ARRRGH---

    He's already got his ring. It was all about the money. Not that hard to understand, but apparently the Steelers brass felt Slay was more about football than the rest of his life. This should have come out in interviews before signing the guy. Not everyone eats, breathes football like Tomlin.

    so - is it Khan, our OC, or Rodgers - or Jonnu? We may never know.

    pittsburgh is where you GO TO DIE if you play on offense. We have seen that for 5 straight years now....

    Anamoly or Miami knew how to use him?

    He didnt put up big numbers with Smith in Atlanta, maybe Smith should pop in the tape from Miami and incorporate that.

    Nobody has good numbers. They gave a 2nd and a fortune to DK and he isn't doing anything. They gave 48 large to Pat and he gets 1-2 catches a game. The entire team sucks.

    My guess is that the Fins had Hill and Waddle stretching the field and drawing attention. It was easy picking for him and Tua. We don’t have such WR combo here

    See. No talking football.
    You act like Cowher didn't do the same?
    Mike Tomczak, Kent Graham, Tommy Maddox. Do they ring a bell?? He even tried to get Kelly to come out of retirement.
