    Oh fabulous! I met him on a Steeler's cruise in 2020. He was awesome. Maybe he would like to coach????

    Great breakdown. I've always liked Moats since he did a video on Steelers.com pretending to be an artist at some fair or other.

    I have a really short attention span but I watched that whole thing and that was really well done. Lot of things to clean up for sure.

    The 3rd down offense was bad but at the same time,the steelers offense are way too often on 3rd down in the last few years,the reason why the offense is bad.

    He did another video on the successful third down plays. Obviously there’s less to work with there, but interesting nonetheless

    I really like listening to him and Wes Uhler on the Steelers Blitz podcast.

    Ranked worst on first down. Canada said it was good most of the third downs were less than 5 but 4/15 is not good enough

    What I appreciate is that he approaches it for a defensive perspective. That whole video is great but again frustrating as hell. On the 3rd down and 9 from the shadow of their endzone Steelers wr ran into each other not once but twice in the same play. The first time they have it set up for a rub on the defender which would have let a guy come clean with a 7yard catch and open room to get the 1st down instead theyhit each other and allow the defender to follow unimpeded. Then as Mitch is scrambling two of the middle guys run into each other again. Just frustrating.

    Moats breaks it down. Very informative. I like him as well on 93.7 when he is on there. I believe he is on the Pony and Muller show during the season.

    He stated what I have been saying, the Offense as a whole needs to improve.

    @strummerfan do you disagree with the whole comment or something in it?

    This is an under quote. Going 4/15 means your D is on the field 2/3 of the game. It also means you are not advancing the ball enough to even try for fg's. Cowherd picked the Pat's 24-20, one reason because it's obvious the coach's do not trust Mitch. We won Sunday only because a comedy of errors. I'll take the win, sometimes you get them that way, but you cannot win consistently in this league limiting yourself from possible errors.

    didn’t know I disagreed with anything. Might be a case of fat fingers. Have to check

    I thought it might be that but I thought I'd check because I didn't think I had said anything too radical

    Personally the disagree function should come with additional requirements. I disagree! Okay no problem explain yourself

    I liked that he picked the two deep balls
    1) Pickens - MT needs to locate the ball to give him a shot
    2) DJ - close/off the finger tips

    Would be helpful if they could hit a few of these to help back the D off.

    I like Moats, but he can be a little over the top at times.
