This comment is coach speak to challenge his team and keep them fired up against a much lesser opponent.
“I dunno guys - seemed like they were the tougher group….”
….when it’s preseason, back ups are playing and there’s no scheme conveniently left off of his remarks
saints were a much worse team top to bottom and side to side. Talent on the field and in the coaching ranks were major issues. I don’t think it was just Carmichael- though I think Carmichael was awful.
its not a great comparison.
I think a healthy tyreek/waddle makes that adjustment much harder but you play the hand you are dealt and it’s not like we were without injuries…. But we might’ve been blessed that their outside speed was so diminished
while I appreciate the energy, hopefully it was just banter between friends and not anything truly in the decision
on the bright side, even if he needs a week, knock on wood the Steelers will not be w major air threat as long as we wrap up well
It’s been hard to defend it as the year went on but that’s why I was one of the longer defenders of his.
it’s frustrating he hasn’t gotten better touches schemed to him
you have to reset the clock on the qb cap hit while you have the top pick
the only way you can pass on a qb is if you are 100% on fields. Otherwise deal him and avoid purgatory
