    I think this will be Haden's last season with the Steelers, he can't stay healthy makes a lot of money and he's on the wrong side of 30.

    Beat me to it.


    He costs at least 9.5 million against the cap if I recall next season. I expect that, next Sunday will be more than just a mere "next man up" mantra for Cameron Sutton. Let us hope that Cameron is up to the task.

    Negate the touchdown given up to Josh Gordon and he looked pretty good I thought.


    Sure, he also gave up the explosive play and that touchdown but Josh Gordon is a beast. Keep in mind he did lead the league in receiving yards in 2013.

    He was beaten badly on the long pass to set up the touchdown to Gordon. I don't think he played particularly well, but hopefully he can hold up against the Chiefs and perhaps Haden can return against the Bucs.

    Ah, thats who that was. I referenced that play in another post but couldn't remember who defended it.

    Mahomes had a great debut, really wish Haden was healthy.

    Chiefs offense did look pretty potent. That Tarik Hill is gonna be a tough matchup for our corners without Haden.

    Agree, and, not to go off topic (and I'm thrilled Haden is ok) but if we cut Joe, let Bell walk, get a cap increase, and do a few other minor things, we could have something like $45M to play with.

    Their offense is scary and Mahomes is the real deal bound to be the next great QB. Their defense is another matter. Looks like an old fashioned shoot out. They disposed of the media darlings Super Bowl favorite the unchargers. Our offense better rebound or it's gonna be a long day.

    It would be great if Haden could play but I wouldn't risk further injury.

    I want to keep Haden next year unless the other corners really step up. He is clearly still our best cover guy other than Hilton maybe.

    Tareek is a tough matchup for anyone. Guy is the most explosive player in the nfl. They also have sammy Watkins now and still kelce. This will be a long day for our defense as mahomes isnt scared to let the ball like alex smith.

    I tend to agree which is why its very important to bring home #7.. Could not think of a more deserving classy player then JH

    I admit, wasn't a fan of Mahomes coming out of college, thought KC messed up badly but Reid knows QB's.

    Only one game but an impressive one. Chief fans should be excited.

    if not for drugs and the browns, Gordon had potential to be one of the best. He is that good

    Nah they will extend some guys like Ben, I doubt they will have that much to spend. But they should have a lot more cap space than what they normally have, plus the cap will go up in 2019.

    Let's not order his bust for Canton quite yet. It's only been one game. Hell, if you want to go by one game, the Roethlisberger guy will never amount to much in the NFL.

    I think Joe is soft, like many Steelers I see on the roster.
