Based on us beating the Jags handily and the Jags beating the Falcons and with our winning our last two games in impressive fashion we could overlook the Falcons. Stands to reason it could be a trap game.
They said his name a couple of times, but the ease the Texans were throwing the ball I was like, "that's not "Patrick Peterson" Patrick Peterson is it? Can't be."
He's not the same Patrick Peterson you remember... he's old!
You want funny? The Texans have trap games now.
True but when our QB was considered second best by most of the football world, nothing wrong with a bit of braggadocio.
Nothing wrong with your comment just surprised that we would find ourselves in that position.
TBH, I didn't know Peterson was in game. I was too excited I guess.
The problem with your team right now is either Pickett or his QB coach. He doesn't make progressions, he often locks on to one receiver before the ball is snapped, and he's not accurate. Some of this can be fixed by a coach, but to what extent who knows. I hope he improves but wouldn't bet on it.
Its also too early to place CJ Stroud in the HOF but if you compare what CJ is doing to Young....you cant honestly say youd rather have Young at this moment.
Exactly. It will take at least a month to make Stroud's HOF bust.
If you really want us to love you, tell us how much you hate Cleveland and their trashy QB.
Not you in particular, but Steeler fans in general have flipped on there team quick. Long time coming I'm sure & if I paid more attention to the Steelers I'd know it wasn't overnight. But from the outside looking in, it looks like Steerler nation flipped a switch & want to run everybody out.
Hard to say.
I agree that Slowick deserves MOST of the credit for what the Texan offense is doing right now, but as long as we are handing out Kudo's to the coaching staff let's give a standing applause to QB coach Jerrod Johnson for what he has done to shape and sharpen Stroud's QB play. Stroud came in to training camp with a lot of natural talent and had been coached up very well at Ohio State. But Jerrod Johnson has taken CJ to a whole new level.
Money is one thing, but Being a Head Coach is worth more than Money to these guy's. Based on what we have seen so far, you should at least have a plan for in place for what to do when Slowick ultimately leaves for a Head Coaching gig.
When that happens, Slowick then finds out how Belicheck feels, dealing with real life without his savior QB.
Dunno what game yall were watching. I never said he played poor, I'm just saying he didn't impact the game.
I absolutely DESPISE Cleveland, and watching Watson and his contract wreck more damage than any opposing team could is just joy to my eyes. I was so glad that the Steelers mad him look like a crappy ass QB, especially since I love in Ohio and all my in-laws are Brownie fans..lolIf you really want us to love you, tell us how much you hate Cleveland and their trashy QB.
He is just not a starting NFL QB, I think of him as being a Mitch Trebisky. Can't read the field very well, but granted out O Line is really bad, but you guys can see that an elite QB that sees the field and makes quick decisions can help a bad O line a lot. Our defense kept us in the game late yesterday, but our offense is such a joke.
Love us or hates us, but the Steelers have been one of the best run franchises in the past 50 years, but we have seen the decline the past 6-7 years. Most of us saw that Ben was way past his prime his last few years and then we saw issues with Bell and Brown, something that very rarely happened to this franchise. Tomlin has kept a lot of these offensive coaches that are not working out as well. Plus, outside of this year the past few drafts have not been great. Again we are a very spoiled fan base, but the problem seems VERY obvious to fans, not just by what we see with the eyes, but the HORRIBLE offense you can see in the stats. Last year we scored the fewest TDs in the league and we are on pace to do it again...
Demeco wont allow it.
Yep, and every Texans fan would be saying this if Young or Lawrence were our QB. Also remember Payton Manning had a bad rookie season.
The founding owner of the Texans said more than once he wanted to model the operations of the Texans after the Steelers' organization. They've been an example of stability and competence for decades.
The fact that I am 52 and have only experienced 3 head coaches bodes very well for Tomlin, the organization has the same ownership and philosophy so he wont get canned, unless he has 3-4 bad years. We have a new GM, who appears to be pretty good as this draft was a good one. Most fans are pointing to the offensive coaches, although some don't like Tomlin either. One thing Tomlin does that is both good and bad is he lets the coaches coach, so he will take heat if some coaching changes are not made.
Tomlin is a great coach, and has been for years. I don't think Tomlin is your problem. It does sound like you guys need a refresh at OC.
I said before camp that Johnson was a great pick for the QB coach and that he would be a HC in the NFL one day. Dude's very sharp. I could see both Slowik and Johnson both being NFL HC's in the next 4 or 5 yrs.
If she had a hand in turning things around then she needs to be the face of the franchise.
Johnson should be the plan.
I used to think an offense was as good as it's QB and OL. After all of the Texans OL injuries it amazes me that the Texans are on their 3rd LT and still hung 30 on the Steelers with 4 starting OL missing time due to injury.
Lol!
And better OL play.
We will give you Davis Mills for a couple of 3rd round picks, he can beat those numbers
Play design, play calling, and play execution just wasn't there for the Steelers.
So many little factors take place. Perfect example for Ohio State this year, as great as Marvin Harrison is as a WR, he only has a few YACs this year, as opposed to last year. Because CJ could place the ball on short/medium/long passes to allow the WRs to run. This year McCord is not at that level, and may never be there, but that and being decisive and knowing where and when your receivers are open is a huge factor as well. And of course play calling, amplifies all of the facets of the offense. Case in point the difference between the offense of the Texans and the Steelers this year. The Steelers coaching is not creative at all..
And we are going on about 5 years of that, hence the frustration of fans like myself. Our offense does not have the skill to just line up and beat most NFL teams
Coaching matters.
FIFY, its what I thought watching PIT....
Ol Cal out kicked his coverage!
And look a the dumpster fire product OB is putting out up in Foxboro!
Tomlin is running things and is likely the reason Matt Canada is still there. I think him and the Steelers should part ways this offseason. This happened in Philly with Andy Reid. They parted ways and both parties are better off for it. Sometimes a head coach/organization relationship runs its course.
I am concerned that Slowick will head out for a head coaching position and take Johnson as his offensive coordinator.
It's been 4 games. I'm not ready to go into hand wringing mode.
If the money's close Johnson most likely stay with his hometown team. I saw him out in Humble playing golf and talking ball with somebody on his phone. Talking about a coverage the Lions showed Cousins last yr.
Concern here
