    I think it can and will be corrected but Ben, Randy and who ever else makes the game plan got overexcited by the shiny new toys and got carried away. Dj showing AB like potential caused them to force feed him the ball instead of playing to win, same with Claypool exploding in the redzone. Ebron creating mismatches in the seam. It was all clicking but they forgot teams break down tape too and you gave to keep adapting.

    Washington had 10 days off to study the Steelers tendencies, they copied what the Ravens did the game before.

    They pay more attention to Claypool now, for sure.. But Johnson and Ebron are still getting open, they just can't catch the damn ball.

    Chiefs have the best qb, TE, and a top 5 wr whos the most explosive player in the nfl. Bucs have their litter of weapons, saints have thomas and Kamara both top 5 at their position, bills have Diggs who's been arguably the best wr this year. Seattle has dk who's been playing top 5 ball, Lockett, and russell. Packers have devante, Aaron Jones, and of course Aaron at qb. I can go on. Steelers talent wise aren't there. No on that offense is making the probowl at the skill postion except maybe Ben but he's not a guarantee.

    Because the ravens have a qb who you can argue may be the best open field runner in the nfl. Their run game doesn't compare to anyone. And they and the Steelers are around the same in attempts.

    And the steelers have the better defense but the discrepancy between kc's defense and the Steelers defense is a much slimmer margin than the enormous gap between the steelers offense and the chiefs. Chiefs as everyone knows are the best team in football with the best player in the world.

    I think the schedule played a big part for sure. Tough to install any wrinkles, let alone an entirely new game plan, in just 4 days.

    Cause I'm dreaming of you tonight
    'Til tomorrow, I'll be holding you tight
    And there's nowhere in the world I'd rather be
    Than here in my room dreaming about you and me

    And yet none of those teams have 3 WR’s in the top 50 of their position. Listing other teams that have good players does nothing to support your statement that the Steelers are near the bottom in talent. My post showing where all their position players are ranked blows up that theory.

    Being a top 50 wr is not impressive lol. Being top 30 isnt impressive. They have no one at any position you would consider elite. Thats why their talent is considered bottom.

    Omg dude :facepalm:

    Thats why no other team but Dallas has 3. They have 3 receivers that can ball out any game.

    KC has one weapon at WR, Tyreek. If top 50 doesn’t mean anything than Watkins and Harden completely suck. Steelers have a QB ranked 15th, TE 14th, RB 15th. That’s no where near the bottom of the league. You’re wrong, accept the L.

    Of course they did. They know we don't change our routine and make adjustments during the game so why not

    Exactly

    To counter Steelers need to go dbl moves n vertical. More intermediate mesh concepts n mix n.match n hit them

    Lol wr is not the only position on offense. Kelce as a tight end has far more impact than any wr on pitt. Sammy has been hurt the whole year.. he probably isn't factored in the rankings. They at one point like a game had tyreek leading the nfl in yards and kelce second. Lol they get all the balls thats why. When you have no one elite and everyone on your team is middle of the pack at best that is bottom tier talent when other teams have people who are elite. I'll take the team with one elite weapon over a team that has multiple average weapons.

    It tells me based off my Fantasy score that their running game is efficient when it is used. I don't care what stats you throw at me i know what points the guy gets me. Simple math man, if they suck or don't rush or don't generate yards or touchdowns then i don't get points. Seeing that i continue to get a lot of points from him that pretty much prooves my point.

    Ranked 15th isn’t average :facepalm:

    Watkins is ranked 126th. DJ has been injured, too, ranked 32nd.

    You’re not even trying to have an honest discussion.

    Steelers have the same offense this year as they did last year. So defenses are playing the same way.

    Randy must be fired. Today.

    Diontae has played in 11 games. Sammy has played in 7....

    And 15th is average. There are 32 teams in the nfl. Not 50. The 15th starting qb out of 32 is average.

    Since Nelson and Joe are out and they have no good DB depth, how about giving Diontae a couple plays at DB. What's the old saying "DB's are WR's that can't catch the ball"
