Calvin Austin

I keep reading articles describing the Steelers offense saying things like "they need help from their number 2 and number 3 WRs and no one is stepping up" (whether they peg DJ or Pickens as #1). I blame Pickett for this more than the WRs---to me, you can't go to the Austin well all game, but he can change momentum with a huge play. No one can keep up with him--we just need a QB who can heave the ball far enough for him to run to and score. The missed opportunities to him have been extremely disappointing and I hate to see him getting blamed. I'd love to see him returning kickoffs and not just punts. He's exciting with the ball in his hands (I feel the same about Warren).

 

Pickett misses lots of plays, i can't say that enough.

Austin had his man and the entire D beat and Kenny under-threw him. everyone will blame the ribs and that may be true, but Kenny does not throw a good deep ball, pre-rib.

it's a problem

speedy guys, #3 WR's, should be lots of slants, in and out routes - he'd beat LB's and S / nickle backs all day long underneath, but either Pickett or Canada cannot figure this out.

everyone talks about Addison, well we have Austin, USE HIM correctly.
