We suck. There's nothing but full on suckitude and darkside. People who were pretending a game or two ago that we were good just piss me off. This or that is so easy. I just want to punch them in their nuts.

Let us know how you really feel! :D

Lol. Here I go.

We have a talented coach who is inflexible. He is old. He has created the narrative that young players aren't expected to contribute or cant. He is loyal to his coaches despite some proving they are awful. He is focused on his scheme rather than adjusting his scheme to fit his talent.

Our GM is terrible in the draft. He has consistently botched the first two rounds of every draft he has been in charge of. His best picks so far an oft injured S, an olb who blew off a coach during a playoff game, and a rb whose coach wont commit to running the ball.

Our QB is old, regressing and could retire at any time. We have not shown any ability to develop a young QB.

Our only consistent receiver on the roster is 30+ and struggles to separate.

Offensive line units depend on continuity. Only one player on our offensive line has started at the same position on the line for more than 2 years. Veldheer. We are auditioning our young RT to replace him next year creating more inconsistency.

Our best defensive lineman is not a vocal leader and is a free agent.

Our best edge rusher is a free agent and both of his brothers have has substance issues. The other pass rusher may be locker room problem.

Our best ILB is small and lacks instincts. Is consistently out of position.

Our least productive S this year is our highest paid. The other two are free agents.

Our CBs are one great player and a bunch of below league average players. CB is one of the few positions that teams can scheme to avoid.

Our punter is a coaching favorite, and is terrible.

We have no return men other than our starting RB and top CB, neither who we can afford to lose.

ugh.... I can't "like" this but I agree with all of it. So depressing, but spot-on true.

Pittsburgh, PA--Enemy territory!
I giggled the one time I checked my phone, and Palmer had like 49 yards passing, 0 TDs and 2 INTs. WOW.

Then I saw the final scoring summary, and I laughed even harder. I'm not sure when it turned to weeping.

Carson leads the league this year...in fumbles (with 12, so far). :|

I would like the team's management to make a promise to us that as soon as the present collection of coaches is gone... to NEVER, EVER, EVER, EVER again hire a coach with ANY connection with Pittsburgh at all, such connection even as innocuous as having passed thru the Pittsburgh airport on the way from and to somewhere else. Please.
