Kinda agree-with you and Tommy... But let's see how
Thursday's game goes... No matter which bloke plays.

We can piss on Tomlin, Matt Canada, the defence, and
the offence all the day - but surely the FACT remains:

There's a sad LOT of average teams in the NFL.
And our Steelers lads are one of them.

Agreed. I've been a staunch defender of Tomlin for 15 years now, but this shitshow of an offense needs a complete reboot - including at QB.

Yes…. I say play Kenny for rest of season just in case there’s more there. With Mitch he’s had a few years to make his mark. Just doesn’t have it.

My prediction is we win tonight on our way to a 9-8 season. Tomlin keeps his job and we continue to be average.

Titans with a backup will win. Maybe it's the wakeup call Pittsburgh needs to make the changes necessary. It all starts and ends with Tomlin. I am so sick of everyone blaming Canada for their woes. Pickett is not a playoff caliber QB. If you think he is you are foolish. At least Titans have a star RB, Najee Harris is not that guy. Pittsburgh has a great D but what good is that when you can't put up points in today's offense minded NFL?

... Crikey! ... Where are you lads? ... Traveling back from
the football match, I reckon... A good Win for our lads,
though the referee officials were piss-poor.

Yet-another ticky-tack "holding call" to keep everything going
to the final seconds... ... Pickett played okay enough.
Sometimes his throws are rough, but the receivers need to
CATCH the BALL... Defence keeps playing the soft coverage
that surely allows catches all-about the field.

THAT will be the downfall that will end the season.
Facing a good QB who will throw strikes and make the defence
look like Shithouse Sherman's pee-wee side. ...

... Just me-own 2c-piece.

I was at the game and it’s just an average team. We’re spoiled but we also know what a good team plays like and this ain’t it.
But somehow we’re 5-3. NFL keeps everyone interested!

Amen. I have no idea what QB the yinzers are watching, but as a long time season ticket holder, I'm seeing a mediocre, slow, borderline dumb QB who the best we could hope for is Trent Dilfer-type "success". Needs the defense to win games for him.

[Charley3]

Looking on the bright side, Jaylen Warren is a great player!! Not just a nice undrafted free agent. He’s a bitch for any defense. I think it’s helped Najee splitting time.
George Pickens did his typical wide receiver diva act yesterday by not celebrating Diantaes TD, left the locker room early, then had a social media tantrum today. More to come.

Kneeelers games should be scheduled on Fridays, with the rest of the high school teams.

They never once kneeled, but we all know why you call them that. It's obvious.

[Charley3]

Seeing some really good QBs playing each other today! Need one!

Glad to see Pickens back away from his social media thing. He needs someone to clearly explain how that doesn’t work. Keep things internal!!

[tommy156]

I wish we would have kept Josh Dobbs. He'd be preferable to any QB on the roster right now. He has what it takes to run a modern NFL offense.

... IF the Steelers thought that way, they would
have kept him. ... But then...

... Let's see... Green Bay is up next.
Might just make 6-3...

I watched most of the other division teams yesterday, when any of them face the Kneelers again, its going to be blow outs.

They all looked good, not like a team that is inheriting wins from losing teams.
