    He could walk into Rooney's office and say "Fire me!" and Rooney would say "No, it's not the Steelers way! 3 coaches in the last 50 years! WINNING!"

    There was a “no” missing from my OP.

    Coaches did no favors for Mason.

    Having Nick Vannett is definitely a nice option for certain. Needed that Tight End option. In addition, I do believe this is a bit of a prelude to the 2020 Draft albeit it is still too far away to draw any conclusions.



    That being said, could we experiment with the Offensive Tackles?! Something is clearly wrong with Big Al as he is not the same this season. Nevermind him, Matt Feiler taking on speed rushers is like a race between a Bugatti Chiron vs a Honda Civic! Guess who the Civic is?!


    I would hope to see Chuks or even Banner at some point should the woes continue for either/or. This level of play demonstrated by both is unacceptable. I seriously doubt it is due entirely to Shaun Sarrett leaving as Ramon Foster, Maurkice Pouncey and David DeCastro have been much of the same.

    Its true. All 3 of our backs have a similar skill set. i think one of the reasons the patriots run so effectively is because of the wide variety of backs they can deploy. At this point we may need to worry about having a true feature back before we have a change of pace back. I like James Conner but even with the subpar oline play JC needs to play better.

    Yeah , I'd like to see some experimentation with some younger guys. And if we lose a few more games I'd love to see the Duck get a start or two to see what he's got. Or at least a series here and there. Especially if Mason is struggling. But if Ben's gonna be the starter next year, there's no reason not to see what Duck has.

    If their record was 2-2 after 3 games, I honestly don't know how I would feel. Confused maybe. Better than I do with their current record after 3 games, obviously.

    Why has Okafor been demoted so much?
    He was a key extra man in on big packages. You'd think they'd want that with the run game getting stacked?

    I remember those good old days we would be up by three with 5 minutes left in the game and the whole world knew we were going to run the ball. Hell most games like that the other team never saw the ball again. Of course back then we had a fat guy with quick feet as a RB , wore number 36 I believe.

    I love the Steelers I have since Franco made the immaculate reception but seeing the same thing over and over from the coaching staff is sickening. No adjustments just keep trying to run wide when your left tackle is getting pushed backwards its getting hard to watch.

    I watch every game I can and even watch them over in the off season and I d be hard pressed to give an example of one game where I could see a change or an adjustment that turned the game around in the second half.

    It sometimes looks different in the second half but its the same except the execution is slightly better.

    It looked to me like he regressed significantly in preseason.

    For all you folks that don't live locally, MT is in the unleash hell roll
    on TV interviews locally. We are getting bombarded by his bull **** LOL.
    maybe 50 % of the players haven't tuned him out yet.
