    You conveniently skipped over the part where the Steelers were dead last in the league in rushing just a few years ago.
    Last year they were a respectable rushing team with a less than ideal OL.

    If we really do have the same issues this year then you have to look at the common denominator here and address it if your Rooney.

    Week 13 both years, NOT week six.

    Pathetic!

    Hopefully Smith and OL coach have huddled this past week before opening
    week at ATL and put the fear of God in this young OL group. They will need
    to make large strides for this team to compete efficiently and effectively.

    We haven’t even seen the offense and posters are claiming it’s the same old offense

    New QB revamped OL new OC new WR coach new playbook

    Yep exactly the same

    :facepalm:

    Apparently, a few posters got their hands on the new playbook and decided it's deja vu all over again. This, despite the fact that Smith is a heavy 21 and 22 personnel user and those groupings were hardly used last season.

    Yeah, I just might not, Not as often at least.

    I can tell you that I wasn’t cancelling other plans during preseason with a thirst of anything Black and Gold related to watch Tomlin’s product and cheeky end of game creative phrasing’s. It won’t have me torn between better options in the regular season unless the unlikeliest of miracles and we look good (not medicine of worse).

    Can’t tell you how many things I brushed away, or over the years just how many times pulled myself out of the stream during peak fall trout season to watch them get stomped. Shell out plenty of money on gear or trek my happy ass to the city of rivers and bridges for a full fun blow out weekend to have them lay a low energy egg at home.

    I know that’s football for some fans and I know teams have droughts, but this extend ended same ol keeping up on a decade pretty soon is for the birds.

    This coach has far too much autonomy for my liking and the game is passing him and his sweet gig by like it did Don Shula years ago. Boring ball…

    By the way, check the thread title if you’re not into the tone of it. Not my fault you came in here giving directions. I’m sure there’s some cheerleading thread you can get all happy and cozy in.

    We'll see if this newly revamped offense will be able to score more than the usual 17 points maximum. Hope so, but wouldn't I count on it

    Dont shoot the messenger , shoot the leader. The definition of insanity is doing the same thing and expecting different results. Tomlin and Rooney lets focus all our money on defense has been a complete disaster and our franchise is the dodo bird of the league. We think we are building a team for 1974 not 2024. The new OC has a train wreck of an o line that other team solve in a year and we are in year 5. All our QBS get hurt and we dont get a running game going until way into the middle of the year. Should have fired Tomlin after AFC debacle against Pats. No one here really believes we will ever sniff another SB or even AFC champ game with him leading it Truth hurts.

    Being that the messenger drew conclusions from preseason games where they don’t game plan etc than shooting the messenger is apropos

    well, to be fair - we are drawing conclusions from the past 7 seasons or so, maybe 12 seasons....

    even you can't be too bullish on the 2024 campaign;)

    It’s foolish for you to do such things, but that’s what you do.



    No, I’m not bullish on this team and I’ve said why. We have a brand new qb room. A rookie starting at the most important position on the oline. A good possibility that we end up with 2 more rookies starting on the line. A new offensive coordinator and scheme… those things are not the recipe for success. I’m just not dumb enough to sit there and blame the coach for everything under the sun

    Do you ever feel like you're too happy? Do you feel like your life is just going to good?
    Well, don't you fret. Just pop over to The Steelers Fans message board and they'll get you feeling right as rain! Soon you'll be back to being a miserable s.o.b.

    Oh heavens, the sky is falling!!

    haha

    ok - you should blame coaches when they deserve blame
    you should blame players when they deserve blame
    you should blame Owners when they deserve blame
    and you should blame GM's , when they deserve blame

    that might help clear things up

    you win as an organization and lose as one too
