this is about to be the greatest episode of the century
absolute heater imo
It's gonna be like this the rest of the season and next season in 2024
Really almost brings a tear to your eye to see the guy's playing tough and having fun doing it, especially after seeing them having a blast in the locker room after the game. This could be the beginning of something amazing, I hope so and I'm here for it.
The crew always had grit. Is Mike masterfully pulling strings?
i think we need more evidence than a one score victory over a burrowless bengals
@@5StarMatchup Just as good as this win was Cleveland got stomped by Denver
I'm hoping they get on roll and get back to having fun playing the game. Usually when team's play loose they play better and have a higher chance of success.
Haven't even gotten past the intro, but MAN that spiral to Pickens was tight. Kenny throws a nice ball.
Maybe he's just a deep ball thrower
So happy for Trenton Thompson getting his first INT 🔥
he looks like a keeper. I know his two starts have been against back up QBs, but I like what I've seen from him better than what I've seen from Keanu Neal this year.
I thought he was one of the only bright spots last week too. Guy can play!
diff players, Neal more like T Edmunds.
Thomson almost had that tipped ball too, definitely keen on keeping his eyes on the rock, I only worry he’ll get beat deep at some crucial moment..
Watching that game yesterday was like a breath of fresh air. And you're exactly right. It was the first time all season any of them looked like they were even having fun. Great to see!
Well said!
I kept refreshing my home page waiting for this video highlight of a Steelers win
Watch it twice!
Our offense looks a lot better when we have one of the best blocking TEs (80) and receiving TEs (88) on the field at the same time.
bingo! 80 Can play O too! Need's targets once in a while!
@@5StarMatchup What a shock! Using a TE as a TE and not just an O-line blocker... It works!
Najee, another great performance by you it was awesome to watch thank you you are a true Pittsburgh Steelers!
I was at this game. Pickett hitting Muth was such a welcomed change. Here We Go.
absolute money to muth every time!
When 5star showed the claypool game I was like holy sh*t it’s been a minute cause I remembered him dominating that game
Huge step forward for this offense; still just a hair off of where they could be when they put it all together consistently, and I think if/when they get there the points will follow. But to get 400 in the very first game without Canada just absolutely cements the fact that he was a huge problem for this team and one of the worst OC's in NFL history. This game was actually watchable bc of how well the offense moved
Dare I say it was actually.... fun?
@@5StarMatchup definitely it was fun
Everyone forgets that most QBs take 3 to 4 years to adjust to the NFL. AND ON TOP OF THAT remember Kenny got thrown to the wolves and had to fill big shoes. Matt Canada was a quiet bomb waiting to blow and this entire team was about to demand a trade. But after the fire I knew we were coming out running and screening. Kenny is a baller literally and with a solid playbook he understands better he is able to show his ability at year 2. These guys not only proved Canada was the problem they showed us they can move the ball with ease. 16 points was the product of Kenny learning a whole new offense. Watch next week their gonna score over 27 points and get another 400 yard game and from their it will only get better. 400 YARDS IN 58 GAMES (4 seasons almost) is sad and Matt held this offense back so bad. I do respect the man for standing his ground through it all and everyone in the Steelers franchise said good things about him. So he must be a good guy just not the OC for the steelers bully ball defense dominant screen passing offense. But i think this is the confidence boost Kenny needed. Good news Pitt fans I'll be seeing yall in the playoffs baby!!! HERE WE GO STEELERS HERE WE GO!! 🖤💛
OMG!!! 5 Star I think that you have gone into the STRATOSPHERE with this show!! The amount of awesome is EPIC!!!!
Disappointing point total considering how well we moved the ball, but I'll happily accept what the offense gave us yesterday. KP should've had a TD pass but Tomlin doesn't know when to challenge a call. Obviously a lot more to work on, but I'm just happy to see Kenny playing well and making good throws. I think Canada was holding him down more than I originally thought
You do know those things come from upstairs? Like he said in the video, whoever the video guy is has to get that in the coaches ear
The first thing I said to my wife yesterday after this beautiful game was “I can’t wait for 5star’s video on this game.” Thanks for all you do.
love to hear it! thank you.
Steve was quick to get this one out... and for a good reason, we have the tools and the handcuff is gone. they need to play like this for the rest of season..... HERE WE GO!!!!
your name draws a lot of water in this town!
I have been a very big Kenny defender for the last 2 years, and every bone in my body wants to be so happy, but I need to be realistic and know that this is just one game. With that being said, I’m very happy with Kenny and what he did yesterday.
This team feels brand new! I'm excited for the rest of the season!
I was ready to write Kenny and the rest off because there was no way Matt Canada had that significant of an adverse effect on the offense and the QB’s play, but wow. First 400 yard game the moment Matt Canada is gone, something he could never do, and Kenny’s best game to date is so telling of the hinderance he had on our development
I knew it was canada the whole time
Commentary was top shelf.🔥
you're top shelf!
6:49 the pursuit on herbig made me so hype he was like you taking too long
DOIN TOO MUCH
Feels nice having skill and play making out weigh rough luck, instead of needing luck to carry us. Its a good day to be a steelers fan
The Post Credits to this episode was emotional😢😂😂😂
originally had Celine Dion but Sony blocked me lol
Pat Freiermuth's highs in 37 games with Matt Canada: 8 catches vs MIA and CIN in 2022, 85 yards vs NYJ in 2022.
Freiermuth's career highs in 1 game with Faulkner/Sullivan: 9 catches, 120 yards. It took Faulkner and Sullivan 5 days to figure out what Canada couldn't in over 1,000: use the middle of the field and get the ball to imo their best pass catcher. Also, not back on the Pickett bandwagon, but if he plays like this the next month and a half, I certainly will be
wow thanks for the stat pull my man. Shocking how much better things looked.
I have indeed been here long enough to remember our last 400 yard game in 2020 that’s crazy isn’t it
A real og you are, Australia
Seems like every game Nick Herbig comes off the bench cold, makes a splash play like at 6:50 then goes back to chilling inconspicuously on the sidelines, sipping a Gatorade/Pedialyte martini.
He's been fantastic in limited duty
Been so long, I almost forgot we had a Pro-Bowl caliber receiving tight end on this team. Seriously, though, what an absolute rebuke to the Canada offense for them to come out and grab 400+ in the first week without him. I almost feel bad for him... but then I remember it was his literal job to be competent and I feel worse for the team having to endure that for so long. Looked like a different offense out there on Sunday!
Yeah I couldn't stop thinking about what was going through Canada's mind if he saw this. Like, do you think he's really bitter? Or do you think he just went 'well, shit, maybe it was me?' haha
@@5StarMatchup I suspect he's feeling rather awful, honestly. Humiliated is how I would feel, anyway.
13:31 the close up on mike Hilton scrambling killed me😂😂💀
👀
I watch this show since 2020 man, it felt good to have 400 yds on offense
Appreciate that man!
Outside of the 2 minute Drill Ben was forced into every game of his final year, this is the first time the Steelers’ offense has looked like an NFL offense in WAY TOO LONG.
HERE WE GO.
Ik the point total isn’t ideal. However, just not going 3 and out, and at least being able to set field position most of the time was a big improvement.
Gotta get some more touchdowns (especially passing touchdowns). But I’m still pretty happy with our offense
I love kazee and that hit he made was amazing
Just found your channel and I'll have to say good stuff. Better than NFL highlights and more info that shows why the drives worked or broke down. You may be on to something here, keep it going.
Appreciate you! 5th season at it. Stick around!
Dude if that’s a hold at 8:20 THEN WTF IS WHAT GOES AGAINST TJ EVERY SINGLE PLAY HE IS HELD EVERY PLAY
19:56 “Goodnight, Sweet Prince” 🤣🤣
Had muth on fantasy too… huge risk reward on that and Kenny showed up… muth was wide open on some other plays kenny missed… Steelers nation we only getting better now!!! 400 yards woooo!!!
Just good, just all around good stuff. Glad to have watched that historic game with everyone in the discord. It was lots of fun. Can’t wait for the next game.
the discord has reached epic levels this season IMO!
@@5StarMatchup this is my first season as a Patreon supporter, joined about a month ago. So I’m new to the discord. Was a little nervous to participate because we all know how some discord servers can be lol but everyone is super cool, super nice, and nobody brings people down over their differing opinions. I now feel really comfortable contributing and it’s my favorite part of the game honestly. It’s so hard for any creator to foster a community that isn’t toxic but you guys have done a great job doing it, it’s just a bunch of people who bleed black and gold! Very cool.
It wasnt perfect, but what a massive first step in the right direction!
Love how the practice squad players flew around
Some nice midseason pickups!
I better not hear anyone say bring back todd Hailey or Bruce at OC. What these two men did in the first week of letting Canada go was impressive. I'm not pointing out any wrongs here today simply because it'd be petty. This is the best the steelers offense has looked this year, and I'm not gonna call anything out. Great performance.
These plays to the tight end 3 to 10 yards over the middle - I asked for this since three years. Makes the field wide and open up so many opportunities.
This night has be proven something : Canada isn't a NFL coach, never was, never will be. But maybe he's attractive for a team with tanking ambitions?
Don't think that I didn't hear that Jaylen Samuels joke! Also I'm feeling the most optimistic about this team since 2020.
JAY SAM
I just wanna see them close out some of these big drives for more points but I’m ecstatic to see 400yds of offense
I'm with ya but at least they were possessing it yesterday! Moving in the right direction.
Can't wait for the rest of the season. The Steelers were such a boring team all year until this game. Going into third downs I was always convinced that the drive was over. This was the first game all year that I felt confident going into third downs.
I’ll take that W! 3-1 in their Division. Pickett looked a lot better. Just hoping for some improvement and we got it! Anyone notice the block from Mt. Washington on the Harris TD run? Looked like he could’ve ran that man out of the stadium. As for Harris, he certainly did his best Earl Campbell impersonation out there. Next two weeks should be a cake walk against two of the biggest dumpster fires of 2023, but we’ll see…
I want a 5 star recap of post game comments from the players and Tomlin! Maybe even some media takes. More feel-good content 😄
haha if only I had unlimited time my friend!
Thanks for the show!
i could just hear your voice as i read that comment lo@@5StarMatchup
I’ve been waiting for this
PATIENTLY
Hopefully this offense can generate some more points next week and keep it rolling!!
We shall see!
Could've used more points, but it looks like it's headed in the right direction. I'm just glad he's finally gone
yeah I can't be mad. Just *felt* different!
This game only pissed me off twice and for a Steelers game this season that extremely rare. The first time was that whole Diontae TD to Warren fumble moment and the second was any time I saw Mike Hilton make a great tackle for the Bengals because we somehow kept Zach Banner over the best slot corner in football.
I got you. We broke 400 yards!!!!
KP was surprisingly so much better. Accuracy is still off like on the non catch for a TD by DJ (thrown behind vs in front) but he overall played so much more confidently. Gotta love it and hope it just keeps building moving forward.
For me the biggest thing they need to address is the attitude on Offense. DJ being the main culprit, especially as he is a veteran. The lack of effort even prior to the ball being fumbled is embarrassing to see. Someone on the team needs to drag his ass over and tell him to give the effort...literally the whole team was running towards the ball on the fumble...it was picked up by HIS defender. Also the crying for the ball when it doesn't get tossed your way, Muth did it again and on a day where he had career targets/catches/yards...my man, you throw those kind of exasperated hands up when you miss your chip blocks?
Agreed. O needs a total overhaul but yesterday was promising!
DJ, during the play always follow and go to the ball, if you do you might pick it up and score! One thing I can't comprehend is how after 25 + games you and Kenny aren't on the same page, what is up with that clearly you need to practice with Kenny more, it's like every game is your first time.
Seeing people yelling "fire canada" in Utah is crazy.... im sorry that he lost his job but he was just not the guy. First game without him and we finally look like an nfl offense
Love it!!! And, love the narrating...
All love! Thanks for watching. Stick around! Been at it 5 seasons now.
Yooooooo that Pat freierMUTHHHHHH KILLED ME 😂😅
Post Canada era looking GOOD
Najee played like Jerome Bettis, keep that energy
Leads the league in 20+ yd runs!
@@5StarMatchup i prefer him to lead the league in 😡 angry runs
These videos get me so hype after a big W
These comments get me hype
11:08 I see what you did there....Joe Starkey no doubt appreciates it!!!
The "good night sweet prince" at the end had me dead LOL. Told you motherfuckers Kenny P wasn't the problem.
Appreciate the Jaylen Samuels shout out lol.
originally it had the celine dion titanic song underneath but sony blocked that lol
Go figure.
It does make it nice when you can actually be vindicated about your analysis....that it truly was about putting players in the right places to be successful and using the talent you have in a manor that will garner victory or mixing things up and doing things differently or to stop doing things that do not work over and over and over.
This was a much more clear vision of this offense if you ask me and it can only get better!!!
7:07 ish
Look at 80 wide open in the middle if the field.
8 checks it down with no pass rush pressure.
Were still leaving money on the floor.
SUPERB Review. Simply. Superb! Blessings and peace 💜✌
"Jaylen Samuels tips this one" hahaha
Holy hell I've been waiting for this one! 😍
“Locker room brawler” omg 🤣🤣🤣
I thought there was someone on the sideline who main purpose was to look at replays and tell the coach to challenge it.
narrator: there was not
Refs stole TD .4 steps with possession is a catch
yep but Mike ain't take it back.
It was Matt Canada
It's a measure of how appalling the steelers offense was with canada that the scoring of 16 points in a game counts as a re-ignition.
Well, if some things went just a bit better, and Tomlin would have challenged that TD, it could easily been 24+ on the board. But as we know, shit happens, and Mike T doesn't challenge unless he knows he is gonna lose the challenge.
@@NachtjagerVII lol true - that has always been his criteria
Trenton Tompson is showing lots of promise
the world play in this episode is legendary
You're legendary. Thanks friend!
Buddy dropped an "incrinculant" let's go
Someone call Starkey
5 star episode. Beginning to end
Thank you!
He said senior citizen lmao
That was awesome
you're awesome
We just say Manager.
it's up to me now! I'm Mr. Manager!
Once Dan Moore and Mason Cole are gone this offense will be much better!
Line is least of my problems right now. They're crushing it in the run game and pass pro more than fine!
@@5StarMatchup Dan Moore looked bad last week and this week. They're ok now but they're sorry play will reappear.
I wish Tomlin had a little faith in the offense on that opening drive. It’s 4th and 2 and you have momentum, despite the negative play with Diontae. Cincinnati has poor run defense and your guys are feeling good. Go into 13 personnel and give it to Najee.
Overall though, I’m pleased with how this game turned out. Only five days of prep time into the Faulkner/Sullivan era and we’re looking markedly better. Hopefully we can be a solid offense down the stretch.
I’m trying to figure out where you saw Jaylen Samuels? Or is this a reference I’m not catching on to?

@@5StarMatchup that’s Mykal Walker??
If warren doesn’t fumble and diontae call is challenged we win 30-10
If Diontae call is challenged the play where Warren fumbled doesn't exist. It was literally the next play.
@@MattF. your right 😂😂 still 23-10
Ifs and butts
@@5StarMatchup good point juss enjoyed seeing us actually having the opportunity to score and not consistently see our punting unit on the field praying for our defense to bail us out
Great team win & there were signs of life from the offense...So shld we declare 11/21/2023 as Canadian Independence Day on our calendars? Also, Trenton Thompson may be playing himself into taking Neal's spot. Get this win against Arizona, formerly Pittsburgh West, & we're inching closer to that playoff spot. #HereWeGo
We shall mark it
The score doesnt reflect how much better they looked. Not defending Canada in saying this, but we have been seeing this same kind of progress. I honestly felt like the Browns game (which was primarily on Canada), the O line was horrendous. From a scheming aspect to the way a few individuals have played. Warren may had good numbers but tbe amount he was contacted behind the line....he made those yards. Very big difference for them with the o line, run and pass. Kenny actually had time to blink his eyes before two people were slobbering on him. You could still see the progression was there with Canada, just simply not enough and not fast enough.
May I also point out, Kenny still is having to make some very hard throws. It is a VERY rare instance yhat he had anyone really "open". Tight covg dictated being surgical. He showed he has that ability on multiple occasions. When the recivers also do their jobs. Add 7 points and its almost exactly what I thought it wpuld look like. Think how much better the D can be if the offense can continue to control the clock. Outside some opening drive TDs or early game pre-adjustment were made, they haven't given up much in scoring. Especially 2nd half. Factor in two substantial losses, one compounding the other with both starting ILBs going down in two weeks. Actually its the performance since that shows the TEAM'S resilience to those situations. It worried me because it felt like we JUST got the figured out. Fortunately it seems to have followed into our depth. Also the fact that Roberts was really a third starter just based on his career before '23.
Even having a running game (2 wks ago), last game with 400yds was against the Broncos. They are suddenly emerging as a pretty decent team as well. I hate losing to where I can be a miserable person for the day (days) after, when the Steelers lose. One thing i have learned to not be with them is impatient. We arent a traditional NFL dumpster fire team.....i.e. Browns, Jets, Lions, Skins. Lol, at least it feels like each division has their own perennial shit show. (Im juat happy I was literally born into the Pitt dynasty. Timing, location, and a family (one side anyway) that bleeds black and gold.
what is your opinion on Diontae Johnson of recently?
Attitude problem
lack of effort on fumble...
Is it time to cut ties with him after the season?
He's the same he's always been. Talented but mystifying. Not enough depth at WR to let him go.
The post Canadian era. I like it...
Still, and I do appreciate the win but the defense needs to get back to biltzburgh! Especially on rookie quarterbacks!
Whats crazy about our defense is that our ranking doesnt even relect how good the defense is because up until last week they spent 90% of the game on the field. They would get exhausted and start missing opportunities. If our offense had been converting 3rd downs and driving the field the whole season i genuinely believe our defense would be top 3 ranking.
Your the man watch you after the game then those guys over at Steelers depot
appreciate you (as long as I stay before Steelers Depot ;) )
Wrong-way Johnson rides again!
What was he doing lol
jaylen samuels reference lol nice
My man could catch
LETS GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
LMFAOOO Jaylen samuels
who knew he switched to LBer
$149,000.00
Very specific dollar figure.
wouldn't take a dollar less
Dang, did they change something?
My only question mark on the day is DJ. I haven't been big on him in recent years, and while its nothing to do with him, or even his tendency to drop balls, I am just so so so so so confused why he has to run backwards half the time he gets the ball.
The Najee and Kenny Redemption game was beautiful.
We had the Najee apology form earlier this year.
WHERES THE KENNY ONE. THE PICKLER RIDES ON INTO THE SUNSET.
Nothing major 😂
DeAntee if you don't like being a Pittsburgh Steeler get the hell out, you wer clearly running backwards, and that wasn't a fluke you have done it before! Also the play is not over until the whistle sounds not when you feel like it!
Idk about Canada being a sweet prince 😂
taken, like so many young OCs of his time, too early.
DJ is playing hurt and isn't telling the Steelers. Watch every pass that requires his left hand to absorb the force of a pass. He actually hurt it 4 weeks ago trying to catch a perfect pass. Now, he's protecting his left hand (thumb specifically) and it's hurting the offense. DJ is just too weak to catch any pass that requires his hands only to catch.
Interesting take but he also had that nice snag across the middle that was low and all hands
@@5StarMatchup Right hand absorbed the force. Left hand guided the ball in. Take a look at his last 3 games of targets and think about how we ourselves catch a ball to our right, middle, and left. This is also why he tends to run back to catches so he can cradle the ball with his body. He's just too small and weak for nfl.
10:08 damn I almost feel bad for Jake .. almost
Tj so good I never bitch about his penalties 💀💀💀
