    “Oh, we messed it up bad. We lost a lot of games we should’ve won. I think there’s changes that’ll be made at some point this offseason. There’s things we got to account for and look at in a hard way," James said. "And we make adjustments to what we’ve been doing, because had a lot of distractions outside of the locker room this year that we need to handle better going forward.”

    I love this. I think this is a statement that a legit leader makes. He was honest but never threw anyone under the bus.

    Kardashians? Why, do they all have HUGE butts?
    Oh, the unneeded drama! I agree!
    For whatever reason, Ben seems to prefer Vance McDonald so, Jesse's getting less opportunity here. I hope he stays.

    I like james, he's quiet and puts in the work. Sure he isn't as gifted as others but he seems like a team first guy.

    We just need a coach that is not going to tolerate this crap, talented player or not. We have a coach that points at the camera, or trips a player running down the sideline lmao seriously he is quite a character

    I honestly think Tomlin is trying to live vicariously through his players since he didn't make it as a player himself.

    Thanks for posting, I needed to laugh. I feel worse this offseason than I did last year. Last year I was still cycling through the 5 stages of grief.

    I like to think that these past years of suffering will lead to something greater but I don't know, life doesn't always balance out lol.

    The guy runs in slow motion I wouldn't miss him, he looks clumsy out there, think he's still growing into his long legs like a great dane pup.

    Huh? I can give you 10 reasons, and they all start with: "VM is a better player than Jesse."

    Let's look at games played the past three years.

    Vance McDonald:
    2018: 15
    2017: 10
    2016: 11

    Jesse James:
    2018: 16
    2017: 16
    2016: 16

    Vance is the better player, but the Steelers would be foolish not to pursue keeping JJ. The best ability is availability.

    Show me the stats in those games... yeah, great he's played 16 games each season. But if you're just looking for someone to fill a role for 16 games, I'll take the job. I can't run or catch, but if all you're looking for is that...

    At least he got a rule changed, it helped Ben vs the Jags, that wouldn't have been a TD a year ago. ( think the QB run was vs the jags where Ben had to stretch out over the goal line )

    The rule change was for a catch, not for a run. Ben's TD was a TD (sort of) regardless of the new rules.

    Vance

    2018 15 50 610 4 2
    2017 10 14 188 1 0
    2016 11 24 391 4 0

    JJ
    Year G Rec Yds TD FUM

    2017 16 43 372 3 0
    2016 16 39 338 3 0


    JJ easily could have had similar stats to Vance if he had the same amount of targets in 2018 (72 for Vance vs 39 for JJ). Vance is the better player, but let's not pretend that JJ is some scrub.
