    This is an interesting and well thought out take, likely hated by most people here.

     

    So here's a question for you, but I think I know the answer.  

     

    Would you swap Josh Allen straight up for Joe Burrow this offseason, if you could?

     

     

     

     

    I personally wouldn’t make the swap.  I’m certain Joe Burrow would get murdered behind our offensive line.  Joe has had some subpar o-lines but I think even at their worst it was better than what we offer

    To run with this further, we just played Tom Brady in his prime today. Someone else said that there was Brady, Manning and Rothlesburger in the AFC. We're the Steelers without the early ring.


    Am I the only one who totally sees/agrees this comparison but also totally hate it.

     

    Never once did I have faith that Big Ben was going to win a SB.  Thankfully he had a phenomenal run game and a once in a generation defensive coordinator and defensive scouting department.

  3. Ed Oliver, AJ Epenesa, Boogie Basham, Greg Rousseau through the draft

     

    Settle, Jones, Phillips, Lawson, Miller, Star through free agency.

     

    They are investing.  They just aren’t hitting.

     

    Offensively the best lineman we’ve had plays for the Browns and arguably the second best one tried to remove his dead fathers head during a mental break.  We spent money on Morse, Bates, Saffold, etc

     

    We aren’t hitting

  4. I can’t help but to notice that Josh got way better with Daboll and took a step back without him.

     

    Josh is admittedly streaky but a better OC would have put him in better positions to make plays today.  And a more confident OC would have been in Josh’s ear and tell him to stop ******** throwing 30 yard passes to WRs with bad hands when it’s 3rd and 2.

     

    I put this on Dorsey and I put the defense on Frazier.  Whenever I watch playoff football I always see teams pulling out every trick in their book to advance and I’ve just never gotten that from McDermott era teams.  We are vanilla week 1-18 and we are vanilla in the playoffs.  Sometimes I think our regular season success is holding us back from asking the tough questions like “why does this defense never work when it matters”.

  5. Chucky got a call after Tony Dungy built a winner.  Andy Reid got replaced after 4 AFC Championship game appearances and a couple down years.  Doug Peterson got replaced after winning a SB.

     

    Some times you hit a wall.  Not saying McDermott is bad but how do we fix this?  And if the answer is to keep doing the same thing, and try harder then yeah you make calls 

     

    Changes need to be made.  Hopefully McDermott is the one to do them.  But we can’t “run this back”

  6. Next year….

    No super bowl favorites.  No Josh Allen mvp watch.  No Tuesday night Allen interviews with Kyle Brandt.  No locker room karaoke.  No 50 billion interviews with Pat McAfee.  No Von Miller podcast introspectives.

     

    I love this team and always will.  But they were reading their own press clippings this year.  And this is the product.  The coaching has been terrible but there has been a lack of energy since kickoff

    No they won’t. They’ve never won anything with him as the QB of the defense. And the defense has always been the ones to lose the big games. 

    That’s not the safest way to gauge success.  Bennett and Talley didn’t win anything either.  Not he’s not those guys but he works in a highly broken system.  I truly think the system he plays in is the cause of his issues it’s not always him
