2023 Steelers Season Thread

[Salty Again]

... Whether we want him or not, it looks like Mitch is the
bloke to play QB come Thursday... Maybe Tommy is right
and Mitch can add a bit more offence spark.
... I heard that Kenny may be out 3 or 4 weeks.
Crikey! ... Maybe Mason will be added to the mix also.

uh... can Boswell throw the ball far?? ... Maybe he cou--- forget it!
I wouldn't want him injured in a sack and not be able to kick.

I agree. Although his players by and large respect him so don’t see a complete fall into the abyss, but I see nothing but average in our future under Tomlin.

Like Kenny, Trevor Lawrence had a ankle injury and left the game, should Jacksonville be looking to draft another QB since he’s injury prone?

But Trevor Lawrence doesn't suck like Kenny does. KP is easily the worst QB1 in the NFL.

Not to mention, Trevor's never missed a start, so not sure what you mean by "injury prone".

Not sure what this means. Trevor has proven to be a better than average QB.
I’m one of the last here to give up on Kenny but I’m about there now. Other than a couple bursts of good, he’s been absolutely terrible.

On another note how about a Tomlin trade? Nationally he’s looked at as a great coach, even though he’s performing like Marvin Lewis. Just decent teams that dont amount to anything. Trading coaches has happened before.

Someone that gets sarcasm,
Thank you!

Sarcasm, good gosh.

If you remember last year Trevor was be discussed as a possible bust, remember.

[tommy156]

Kenny's been knocked out of 4 or 5 games already, so the "prone" argument stands. Honestly I don't remember the "possible bust" argument for Trevor, so sorry I missed the sarcasm.

Thought the consensus was the problem was Urban Meyer.
Anyway, Hearing a lot more big Tomlins supporters thinking it’s time to part ways with Tomlin.
It’s time.

I think Tomlin deserves one more shot, with a real QB. It would be criminal for Tomlin to get fired while they hang onto this little smurf from Pitt. If Tomlin must go, get rid of Kenny too.

I guarantee he played a huge part in picking Kenny. I see nothing in Tomlins past that tells me he can pick and develop a QB.
Another aspect is Tomlins made approx $150 million with the Steelers. That kind of money can make anyone complacent.

[Chase7]

Tomlin needs one more chance with a real QB?

He had a Hall of Fame QB for 15 years 1 Super Bowl win
No playoff win in 4 of the last years with a Hall of Fame QB

[Iceman]

I would trade Tomlin in a heartbeat for 2 number 1 picks.

I'm not sure about Picket, I'd like to see him with a real OC and a Head Coach who won't hold him back.

They didn’t do anything the last 4 years with Ben a Hall of Fame QB now Kenny is supposed to win like one, ridiculous.

The defense can’t hold down a good team they get picked apart.

For some reason not on Tomlin. I heard today on the radio he was in on picking the new GM.
All in all we haven’t been winning playoffs do to poor drafting, yes Tomlin is responsible for that.
When Ben was drafted we had good talent on both sides of the ball. Much easier for him to have a chance to develop.

In fairness, that's been the case for most of the Steelers team history, regardless of who the coach was.
