    Because we have to cycle thru arms till we find our franchise QB. Howard is another one in the process.

    Sick of watching teams like Rams, Eagles, Broncos, etc... draft picks hit the ground running and contributing, while Steelers draft picks either rot on the bench or don't do much when they play.

    I didn't read all of the OP's post, but Cam Skattebo absolutely should have been drafted ahead of KJ. I know Skattebo is hurt right now, but there is no doubt in my mind he will end up being the better back of the two. I wasn't a big fan of KJ going into the draft. I hope he develops. It's too early to judge him now.

    I can only speak of Eagle fans, they think Mikey T. is the sh!t. They don't understand my constant complaining about him.

    If Mikey T was head coach of the Eagles.... he would have been fired years ago.

    I don't believe season after season the players we draft are consistently this bad. No chance.

    It's coaching for the most part.

    We need to start over after this season, before we waste another boatload of draft picks from recent drafts, and the picks we have in '26.

    Maybe not popular but I would consider not drafting a QB and just go into the season with Rudolph+Howard next year. This team needs youth and talent in the secondary in the worst way. Churning through FAs isn't working out, obviously.

    I'm not against that idea. Build around Howard this off season and through the draft.


    Drafting defense has gotten tougher due to the restrictions now. They can't play with the same intensity as a decade ago. DL used to be let them catch the ball and then light 'em up. That's a flag now. Touch the QB wrong and flag. Tough to build a defense without aggression.
