If we hit on Dupree and Burns

Tuitt had one good year in 2016 and Heyward disappears against the good teams (Patriots, Jaguars,etc), but racks up stats against Browns and Bengals.

 

These coaches have hyped those two up so much. They think they are "dominate"

 

You are certainly correct about Tuitt, but Heyward was consistently productive before this season. He still generates pressure up the middle, but he hasn't made many plays in 2018.

 

Too much stunting....let these guys go 1 on 1. We are stunt happy and the ball is coming out in 2 seconds....

 

If only Heyward & Tuitt could push the QB back about 30 yards. Dupree could be useful.

 

The defense made some stops. Teams are not going to win many games being negative 2 in the turnover category regardless of the final score of the game.

I suspect that the late 4th QT thing happens quite a bit in the NFL. Take a look at the Eagles vs the Panthers this past weekend. Teams make pushes.

There were times that Burns and Dupree played well. We'll see.

Over spending for FA's rarely works out as expected for teams. The team would be much better off becoming bad to gain a higher draft pick then to give up high future picks on players that maybe not have the impact as expected. I will never be an advocated of selling the team's future trading for players.

The Steelers are always going to have holes. They can't shoot themselves in the foot by committing team killing mistakes (turnovers). Review the Steelers post season wins and losses. You will have a good idea of what turnovers meant to the overall success of the team.

 

Artie,Artie.Artie.......we have some really dumb SOBs on this team.

If we hit on them both, odds are one of them will sleep with you.

 

I remember reading (somewhere) during the off season that between Burns ongoing development and the acquisition of Tom 'the dback whisperer' Bradley, it was going to be 'Artie Island' this season. His side of the field would be closed for business and every OC and QB in the league would know it.

 

Yeah well every season starts with hopes and dreams...
