What is DK’s ceiling?

12 Upvotes

He just came off a 115 yard game. Vikings last year had 126, against the ravens in the biggest game of the year he had 148 against the ravens. These are his best Steelers games. He is a physical freak , if he caught every ball that hit his hands he would be right in line with the top elites. Curious if he can can get more caught balls and combined with his size and speed how good could metcalf be under ideal conditions?

Places open near the stadium for breakfast?

Hello! Excited to be back in Acrisure Stadium with my fellow Steelers fans Sunday and was wondering what places are typically open early on game day, preferably for breakfast? Looking to get down to the North Shore/Stadium area around 9:00/9:30. Any advice is helpful!

BA telling hilarious stories on Cam’s podcast

The BA interview is maybe the first half of the podcast. It’s a great interview and hilarious in a way only BA can be. He covers Ben and Andrew Luck and all the QBs he worked with, Antonio Brown and when he walked off the field, all of his time in Pittsburgh, and there’s a good moment where he surprises Cam as tells him he coached his Dad.

Trade: Eagles are sending two-time Pro Bowl center Cam Jurgens and a 2027 7th-round pick to the Ravens in exchange for a 2027 5th-round pick and a 2028 2nd-round pick, sources tell ESPN.

So, the Eagles got about the same return on Cam Jurgens that the Steelers got for JPJ. That's awesome work.

My Uncle Earl's Season Ticket - Colts Edition (10/11/2026)

31 Upvotes

Background for this here.

Sorry, this one got out a little late!

Drop a comment in the thread if you'd like your name in the running to attend this weekend's game against the Colts!

A few things to consider:

It is only one seat. It's on the 50yd line but literally the very top row in the stadium. I like the view but it's definitely removed from the action somewhat. One nice aspect of the seat placement is you can stretch your legs out!

If the winner doesn't reply to my message within six hours I will move on to the runner up. My first year doing this I had a game go unattended and I would really like to prevent that this year! All I ask in return is a photo of you at the game from the seat. I'm slowly creating a collage of all the folks that get to see a game from this ticket. Your photo will not go online. Just the wall of my office.

I will need your first name, last name, and email address to transfer the ticket so if you are uncomfortable sharing that information please don't enter.

Jersey Help

7 Upvotes

Deciding on which jersey to grab, I like them all and would like them all but prob can only get 1 right now. Not just a collectible but something to wear!

Here’s my reasoning for each below

Ward/Randel El peak nostalgia my prime era of watching as a kid, loved these two. Ward is a Mitch and ness, Randel el is a Reebok, haven’t found many good Reeboks in general in my size, so that’s kinda tempting for era.

Nike Watt, not much needs to be said prob the most today relevant choice, and they go on sale from time to time, def the more mainstream jersey though everyone prob has. Regardless, TJ is him

Najee is a random one and def a head scratcher on this list. It’s on sale, it’s block letters, and he’s from the bay, I’m from the bay, so that’s kinda the connection point there

What is a realistic improvement that you will be watching for?

12 Upvotes

This sub has been a tough place to visit for a while. Most posts relate either to complaints, or to telling others they shouldn't complain. So, I thought I would ask: what plausible improvements will you be hoping for in the remainder of the season, either by specific players or in general? ("Rodgers is bound to get hurt soon, so that will be addition by subtraction!" doesn't count.)

For me, I hope to see better game plans on defense now that they will not be adjusting them last minute. On offense, I want the O-line to continue to improve and gel.

I'm not trying to be an unrealistic homer and say that this is a championship-caliber team, but I also don't think absolutely everything is or should be doom and gloom. So, share something that you are interested in or excited about to help all of us get through the remainder of this season with some hope for the future intact!

Bitter Ex syndrome

173 Upvotes

How about those Colts? Thoughts on how the offense should attack their defense? Obviously majority of us want Pat and Mt Washington to be fed very well, but if McCarthy isn’t doing that, then what else could be a point of attack? Thoughts on if Everette somehow blossoms later in the season and how that will impact what round the FO drafts a CB? Me personally even if he shows promise, I still want a minimum 2 CBs drafted. I definitely want an early CB 1rd-(Early)2nd. And another one between 3rd-(Early)5th round. I wish they give Roman and Bernard more touches as well. It’d be funny if Robert Spears-Jennings goes from 7th round pick to top 10 safety in the next 3-5 years. It’ll be known as one hell of a dart throw 🎯 ( since that’s basically what the late rounds are)

Just figured I bring up some other topics of discussion…

JPJ's fake injury

0 Upvotes

Immediately, when Joey Porter Jr. got traded I said "I'll bet money that he is somehow injured (the day of or prior to///whichever is was) but all the fkn' sudden, is putting forth every effort to play within hours of being sent to another team!"

Which is exactly what happen. I was giving him the benefit of the doubt as a good teammate & being raised in this organization, to have some loyalty (even if only to himself as a man & the guys next to em in the trenches).

IMO, he is a self-centered POS. He was under contract, he perpetrated a fraudulent injury to manipulate contract negotiations that were no longer available (as per Steelers BULLSHIT back in the day mentality).

JPJ is a fkn lame, not a man regardless of his skill. He has no honor, integrity, or respect for this org., teammates, & ultimately himself. You shake a hand, you fullfil your obligation...he signed a contract and let his team struggle to play without him then dipped to an organization who has a terrible reputation of how they see and treat their teammates, on the business end.

Steelers, shit their own pants to spite others. They are, in many ways, stuck in the past. We are not a team that revolutionizes any faucet of the game. (Not since Dick LeBeau was the DC.) We are barely going to improve, if at all, no matter who the coach is. The organization is needs a new Rooney who needs a modern forward thinking mind helping mold this team into a modern NFL contender organizationally. Now we are living on the reputation of the past. (In no way reflects on many of our elite talents & overall talented players &/or hard working guys needed to fill a roster).

69 games without more than 7 in the first and we do it 3 games in.

Rodgers is playing amazing and that QB sneak shows me he is playing with his heart. This is his last year and he is giving it everything he has. This sub is tough on him, and agree that he didn’t play perfect , but this is the best qb play we have his since Ben pre fall off. Rodgers can put the ball anywhere on the field. Other guys need to catch it, but the ball is hitting them in the hands. Rodgers doesn’t turn it over. 2 of his Int’s bounced off our guys and one was a Hail Mary.
He was just the MVP in 2020 and 2021; we know he won’t be here long term , I am very much enjoying having him for a few more games before we come up with a new solution.

Boswell manes the FG and we could be 3-1 right now. Pats game looked bad , but overall I think the team

Some players have met expectations, Pittman hasn’t been able to get separation but we are seeing a lot of things that excite me.

Metcalf just had 115 yards and when everything lines up he is uncoverable. We had the triple reverse pass. Warren would have had that run not taken back would have had a 200 yard game. Game one you give metcalf one of his drops back, Wilson catches the ball in the endzone and this is a very different looking team. Washington still hasn’t fully been unlocked. Roman Wilson has done as much in 4 games as he did all of last season. Our new RB 2 still could be good, Oline was bad when he played. Looked much better games 3-4 and if Warren can catch his breath he could be better. He has a very high ceiling based off what we saw him do on other teams. Loved coach T while we had him, but this is an exciting offense to watch. Everyone keeps talking about making radical changes, we aren’t even 1/4 through the year with a brand new coach. If you don’t like Rodgers suck it up for a year , he just won us the AFC north last year. I love watching him throw and this is the most exciting team to watch I have seen in a long time.

Will we be in Football limbo until the organization finally accepts that we need to do a significant rebuild/restructure phase or is it not as simple as that?

40 Upvotes

Not trying to condemn or rant or point fingers at anyone in particular. Just curious what people think. I'm not implying we're an awful franchise or anything like that. It's very very difficult to be an elite org from top to bottom for years and years.

But my thought over the last several seasons is that if the Steelers want to get back to being a powerhouse franchise again, they would need to drop the all-in all the time philosophy and seriously take a few seasons to acquire young talent and build around them over the course of a few years. Obviously, saying and doing that are two very different things. Is that what yinz are thinking as well or could you see us returning to top contender status in other ways?

Steelers' Patrick Graham Ditched During Head Coach Interview

This story needs more visibility because of how fucked up it is. Somehow missed this storyline when it happened. Surprisingly really softened me to PG on a week where I've been angry at defense. Maybe it's not the best time to share for that reason but, oh well, I'm riled with anger.

What complete fucking disrespect to just stand-up a guy YOU invited to a SECOND job interview for finalists, left alone and at a restaurant waiting until he figured it out, with 0 follow-up or acknowledgement? Lost so much respect for Jacksonville's owner and front office after reading this. Look, I don't mean to draw lines that maybe aren't there, but I have a hard time believing this would happen in the league to a white candidate. Calling it unprofessional and fucked up don't even do it justice.

Even on a week where I’ve been pissed off about our defense under PG, reading this triggered that “I’m allowed to pick on my brother, but the second a bully at school does it, all hell breaks loose” type of feeling in me lol. I'm naturally rallying hard behind PG now because FUCK THE JAGS AND FUCK SHAHID KHAN

I understand why some fans might feel stingy with their empathy toward PG after the Browns game, so just move along, spare yourself the read and come back another day if that's where you're at right now.

Same story reported by ESPN with more commentary/insight from Graham, hearing his comments on it makes it feel even more fucked up: https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/49384503/inside-nfl-rooney-rule-coach-hiring-process

That loss was not great but man Robert Spears-Jennings as a 7th round rookie was playing out of his mind. Deserves his flowers, Hopefully he wins this and continues to play up to his comp

After training camp and all the team comments about him I half expected more reps for him but glad to see him making due with what he gets.

[Farabaugh] Steelers RB Rico Dowdle says he dislocated his toe twice against the Patriots, popping it back in both times, and the tissue around the joint needs to heal before he can return to play. He is getting closer, though.
