You've got a guy who thinks he is building a brand and wants to be treated with respect. Being benched does not fit into Brown's plans.
Maybe the team chose to invest elsewhere, such as the new deals for Pouncey and Foster and the tender for Finney. Maybe Lolley's source was wrong....
I'm not sure, which is why I prefaced it with "I believe." I know they definitely take the cap hit if they trade or release him.
Fine him for every bit of bad behavior and bench him if he's not helping the team on the field.
That's a fair point, but it seems as if the Steelers are extending a good situation on the interior of the offensive line for another year before...
That's what many Steelers fans here and elsewhere don't seem to understand. This outcome has value for the Steelers. If Brown retires, I believe...
This is over the top, but it's the one reasonable scenario in which the Steelers win. They keep Brown and his pride takes over. He doesn't want to...
That last sentence may be the worst possible solution. In other words, the Steelers would be significantly damaging themselves for 2019 and beyond...
Players hear irritating questions from reporters all the time. They can answer them or say they won't talk about it.That is not a concern worth...
Even if it falls through, that doesn't mean it wasn't real. The most likely scenario is the teams had a deal in place and Brown threw a tantrum,...
Actually, yes, it is his fault. I don't mean that it is entirely on Tomlin. Of course Roetlisberger and Brown bear their shares of responsibility,...
It's no surprise to see Brown balking at a destination that isn't going to help him. The Bills showed some promise with Josh Allen, but accuracy...
Blount and Harrison were unhappy with their situations, so they forced their way out by acting like jackasses. I do get the confusion caused by...
Saving face is irrelevant. If they can't get at least a one or an impact player, they need to keep Brown. Anything else is just stupid.
I have no problem with it if they get a first-round pick. I still think it is a mistake, but it is a reasonable one. It isn't just about what...
Burress made plays for the Giants, too. Sanders got better after he left. Wallace was never really that great as a Steeler or anywhere else....
It was one play. Vince Williams had a pick-six last season. The year before, he made a nice play to intercept Tom Brady. I still wouldn't say that...
To me, the No. 1 receiver is the guy who receives more targets. That was still Brown. I'm sure Brown doesn't like how Roethlisberger treated him...
That's the key point way too many people are missing. This isn't about some manufactured issue with Roethlisberger. Sure, it's a somewhat...
To be fair, injuries were a concern with Bostic and he stayed healthy. Sure he wasn't particularly good, but he played. To also be fair, it's not...
