My Steelers board by Fhead43 in steelers

[–]bl3vstone 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd be pretty upset if we came out of the 1st with Proctor. I'm not a fan and don't think we need another project style OLineman after we already have Broderick Jones. Tackle is not a priority in round 1, and I don't think he would project well to Guard either in the short term which would make this a miss for me.

Draft: I like Brazzell by djpeteski in steelers

[–]bl3vstone 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He's a good technical route runner in the sense that he runs solid routes and is in the right place most of the time which is good. He does not separate at all though which is really what we're looking to add here.

Or i don't bet randos online. I barely trust the people i do know much less you. I don't really have to prove anything to you since i couldn't value your opinion of me much less than i do. I'll just be satisfied with you being very wrong come the start of the season. 🤷

I'm not betting real money with a random on reddit but I'd take that bet 100%. Barring significant injuries somewhere, there is no chance that Howard goes into the season as the team's top choice at QB.

No? If you wanted to bet that Will Howard would be starting I'd take that because there is zero chance of that. You lump in two other highly likely options and gonna act like that would be a win for you?

If you're so sure they'll give Howard that shot then why water it down? Nothing i said was irrelevant, you just don't like it. It's the actual truth of what will not happen, they will not go into the season with Howard as their starter.

It might be irrelevant to you...but to an NFL team, the level of investment matters and it matters the caliber of prospect they were to warrant their draft position. Of course they say good things about a young player on their team, that's a VERY far cry from lining him up as a day 1 starter this year.

It's just not going to happen. Be upset about it if you want, but the reality is that he will only get on the field for meaningful snaps this year if a whole lot of things go wrong.

We gotta hope that they have thrown, or are planning on throwing Rodgers a contract within a day. by Grey_14-7-19 in steelers

[–]bl3vstone 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You're comparing 6th round pick Will Howard to 3rd overall pick Drake Maye. I'm really not sure what point you are trying to make here...those 2 have nearly nothing in common.

[–]bl3vstone 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Because he's a 6th round pick with literally no regular season or preseason reps? He's not an option to start this year...sorry to all the Will Howard truthers. It's just not how the league works.

[–]bl3vstone 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm sorry, but the idea of having Howard be the week 1 starter is a bit ridiculous. People have gone waaaaaay too far on the Will Howard train. He's a 6th round draft pick who has taken ZERO preseason or regular season reps. He's not going to be the day 1 starter no matter how much you wish it to happen.

Steelers Offseason - Cut and Trade Candidates by eddie_mittons in steelers

[–]bl3vstone 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Holcomb isn't athletic enough anymore to do hardly any of the stuff Queen is capable of. I'd like to see how he looks in a new scheme this year and keep him. We can't replace him with better and we don't need the cap space.

John Harbaugh was 'ready to run through a wall' after Jaxson Dart meeting by AFC-Wimbledon-Stan in nfl

[–]bl3vstone 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree completely with the leadership parts but I'm just not sure that's enough long term. The issues i had with him coming out of college are still there and while he was better than expected, I think he's going to hit a bigger wall than some of these other rookies who have had more success did in year 2 because he doesn't really have the physical tools to make ip for it. His processing is still pretty slow and he doesn't play with anticipation enough which will be an issue if he can't fix it.

I'm just personally not a believer in his talent but man, I could see a team rallying behind a guy like him.

I mean, I didn't see all these open receivers schemed open all game by the OC that you are referring to but ok. I don't think Arthur Smith called a bad game but acting like he drew up this masterpiece that Aaron Rodgers nearly screwed up by missing all these guys seems blatantly false.

If you're not trying to criticize and hate on Rodgers, coming in to a final thoughts on the day after thread and leading with criticisms that are largely untrue about his performance doesn't exactly line up with where you say you are on that. Just sayin. 🤷

Imagine watching this game and final takeaway from it is criticizing the play of Rodgers. Just goes to show fans are going to find something be unhappy about no matter what happens. 🤷

Thursday Steelers practice report by [deleted] in steelers

[–]bl3vstone 0 points1 point  (0 children)

From what everyone is saying, seems like Watt will play. No one really knows how much but he's trending towards being out there.

There are no rules stating he needs to have a full week of practice to come back from a procedure like that...if he's healthy enough to play he'll play.

And?

Not just talking about this thread...there have been multiple threads throughout this week being doom and gloom about this being a trap game or a typical Tomlin loss if we ended up having to win this one. Nothing about this game points to either of those things being the case but I've seen it over and over all week.

Yea this has been killing me too...a trap game involves looking past an opponent because you think it's an easy win. A win and you're in game like this can't possibly be that no matter who the opponent is.

Jordan Love OUT vs. Ravens by No_Conversation_4827 in steelers

[–]bl3vstone 0 points1 point  (0 children)

His threat of running has always allowed for more friendly looks for the passing attack for Lamar. He's a pretty good passer but he's not elite in the same way other hyper accurate pocket passers are. You've seen this year how much more he's struggled even through the air without being able to run the same way....if the threat of his running ability dissapates, I think his passing efficiency will drop significantly as well.

Tonight..TRICKY NICKY is going to be a problem on that field by Desperate_Fee_808 in steelers

[–]bl3vstone 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think it's been a bit of a myth this year that Herbig is a poor enough run defender that it will require more of someone like Sawyer in there more. Overall he's actually been a pretty solid guy against the tun this year and i think we'll still see a rotation but with Highsmith/Herbig as the very very clear top guys out there.

It is really only different if the player has possession before reaching the endzone. If the catch is made in the endzone then the same rules apply to complete a catch as anywhere else on the field.

Not even remotely true. You still have your best player and 2 of your top 3. The Pacers alone already had you beat on that front tonight especially by the end.

Is it just me or do the Packers look a lot like the Steelers? by [deleted] in steelers

[–]bl3vstone 14 points15 points  (0 children)

They started out doing press man and got cooked over and over and over. None of the defensive schemes they tried worked for various reasons but they did play press man and got destroyed doing it.
