    Joey B looked good. O-Line did a good job protecting the merchandise in his first ever preseason game.

    @The Product how do you like the trade for WR Dotson?

    i don't know how good the eagles offensive line currently is, but if you guys offensive line can hold up.....the Eagles offense should be very dangerous/fun to watch.

    Eagles making a big mistake if they won’t give Pickett a true chance at the starting job. Especially when he reportedly looked better than Hurts on 7v7s.

    The offense is already stacked so adding him in the slot is a nice addition especially since that’s an area that lacked last year. I saw they cut Parris Campbell and some other guys they were testing in the slot this preseason ( John Ross) so Dotson is a good experienced WR to fill that hole.

    Aside from Jason Kelce retiring the line is pretty much intact from last year so I am super excited to see what kind of offense they have with Kellen Moore. Probably/hopefully going to see a more advanced offensive scheme than last year (which isn’t hard with how bad Brian Johnson was).

    It’s hard to see any flaws in what they’ve built. On paper it’s easily a top 3 offense. Just hope they can put it together on the field.

    LOL. This report was months ago and compete trash. Once true camp started Hurts has gotten a ton of praise over Pickett and didn’t throw a pick in over 200 attempts or something. I don’t like to use preseason, or camp for that matter but if you are going to point out one camp report you shouldn’t ignore ones that go against your agenda. He didn’t really shine at all when he was on the field and mostly got outplayed by McKee. Hurts is clearly the better QB between the two.

    Pickett looks decent without pads on when it’s basically back yard football. Once the pads come on, he’s legit scared to get hit and way too slow to scramble. You would be surprised at some delusional Steeler fans who claimed he was looking better than Jalen in all seriousness. I’d laugh and say Jalen doesn’t even need that practice. A few are older and their minds set on the local area; like a 3-4 Ik literally thought pirates had a shot at their division. I was mostly messing in that other post lol

    So you would agree the AFC North is the toughest division in the league? probably the last 10-12 years tbh. Browns don’t protect Watson enough. Ravens or Bengals should win it, depending what key players get hurt first. If Steelers were in the cowboys division, they’d win it every year.

    yes, AFC North probably is toughest division in the league.

    I think the Steelers decline this season. I just think their offense doesn’t have enough firepower. Maybe Fields and/or Wilson can give them a boost. But the Steelers haven’t been able to run the ball effectively for years and they’re still looking for their long term answer at QB since Ben retired. I think this year will be Tomlin’s first losing season.

    I’m shocked that you think the Steelers are better than the Eagles. Have you seen the Eagles offensive personnel?

    Well I’m kind of in the process of moving to New York (like Manhattan type area) not the ghetto, and prove it to @Worm with a vid and ban him from there.
    I’m closer to the greensburg, Monroe area still a Pittsburgh address but right outside. I enjoy the casinos in Pittsburgh and some party type areas when younger if had a small crowd with me, but not a huge fan of staying in the city long term. I’ll stay for a few weeks if a job is worth it. But yeah people were delusional literally tried arguing with me that Pickett is their current starter and made me frustrated then.

    But there was also an older guy who said the pirates were going to win the division over a month ago said no one is better in their division, I had to laugh. Can’t really blame him idk if he watched a single non Pittsburgh game in his early 70s now. I just don’t know how some can’t realize you go no where without pitching, reliable bullpen, not blowing 10-2 leads.

    I didn’t say Steelers are better than the eagles. I’d admit I’d take Jalen in a instance.

    Steelers don’t have a solid enough o-line. Russ lost his legs to scramble. Fields would fumble multiple times about every preseason game. I don’t want to ever see him near the ball. It’s time to fire Tomlin. Harris isn’t a solid power back or a long term answer for rb either. But bad run blocking from what I saw too.

    go look at your post again.

    you said, "If Steelers were in the cowboys division, they’d win it every year."

    the eagles and cowboys are in the same division--the NFC East

    I mean if the line comes out blocking, yeah they’re a threat to the eagles and their division. Remember, you led the whole “Steelers aren’t making the playoffs last year for the first time movement, they’re done” and they still did with a 3rd string qb. Steelers are bullies Timmy. Your Steelers rant backfired last year, and upgraded with Wilson.
