I loved how the biggest issues on our team have been addressed.
Center????
True I'd forgotten that, good call. I know they're looking at some guys one was the C from Denver, we'll see.
@@alexandereckert5939 draft homie. I heard Jackson Powers-Johnson is high in the radar. Kids a prodigy.
The head coach is still there
Steelers need an offensive lineman, DB, D-lineman and a WR. The Khan-man is not done yet. Patrick Queen will be Farrior 2.0.
Center
They brought in DB Donte Jackson
@@tomalcock620strong safety needed
Mike Williams is probably next
They can get Brendon rice from usc late....maybe 4th round....give the goats kid a shot
Anybody saying they would want a Steelers Hard Knocks must be satisfied with our lack of production the last handful of years... Ain't no MF way i want a hard knocks!!! We gotta to focus on winning!!! F🖕CK bringing in any extra cameras or distractions!!! Let's go to work 💯% focused on the ultimate goal, SB #7!!!!!
Keep dreaming. Won't happen until Mediocre Mike is gone.
The Steelers need a big center to anchor & hold the line.
Pickett sucked! Steelers picked him bc of the ghost of Dan Marino.
Right but Tomlin really wanted Pickett big time.
I think Tomlin wanted Willis but was told Pickett and then put a good face on it But 100% it was the ghost of Dan Marino
@@Harrisx5 No QB in that draft was good enough to replace Big Ben.
In all fairness to Pickett he did have a crap OC for 2 years. Not saying he did not under perform for a first round pick but it was not because he had great OC and he just played terrible. Just saying situation wise Pickett was not given great coaching.
@@steelphantom9105 He didn’t want Pickett.
Rich stop HATING!!!!!! Russell Wilson was #1 in the LEAGUE in 4th Quarter TDs, 4th Quarter Comebacks, 9th in TD passes!
TELL EM!! STEELERS NATION
Man I would love that HardKnocks!!
What team has won a SB after Hard Knocks? That show is a jinx, and Eisen doesn’t wish Russ well. That’s why he’s hoping the Steelers do the show.
You’ve got such great guests and storylines
I don't want to see the Steelers on "Hard Knocks". That's pretty much like showing your hand.
Agreed!
Mike Tomlin's reputation is that he's a man of his word and that he's tough but fair. He is a man of character. Unlike the guy coaching Denver.
All facts Steelers best franchise
Very True
They could’ve had a great Motown sound with Wilson/Pickett!!!!!
That's funny 😂
Days Of Our Steelers ⏳️
Pleeease Courtland Sutton! The highlight reel between him and Russel Wilson is sick! 🏈 👀 Then more depth jn the draft.
I said that since I was watching him last year fr
He just got arrested for domestic abuse. That's a hard pass lol
Sorry u said Courtland I was thinking Cam my fault lol.
The dream would be to snag Tyler Lockett! Oh! That would be a stone-cold move.
@@DeCurtaRican they resigned him recently
Justin Jefferson need to come to the Steelers
Oh my god pls!!
lol that’d be a dream
I mean I like it, but I wana say no way. But after this year all bets are off lol
Yes but that contract will be too rich, give me Brandon Aiyuk
@@KingMjs_day Aiyuk want more money then JJ
Never thought id say im excited for the Steelers..
Need to get a WR and center!!! hopefully we can find that in Free Agency. Then go draft defense in the first round. With a lot of teams looking for QBs... getting a defensive stud in the first round might possible.
I like your thinking!
Big swing at WR presumably refers to Aiyuk, Deebo or Diggs. The last 2 seem highly unlikely on the dead cap hits alone.
Don’t underestimate what the Steelers Khan do👀
I’d rather have Aiyuk personally Deebo would be more exciting but he’s not your traditional wr he’s more rb and we don’t need any more rbs we have 2 and 2 running qbs
@@ToppDawG I'd prefer Aiyuk too but Deebo probably fits the new offense better as a dual threat WR. He's also been banged up A LOT MORE which is pretty significant.
Justin Jeff
One name I haven't seen floating around much, but I wouldn't be surprised: Tee Higgins. He's not happy in Cincy and wants out.
He was tag, he isn't a free agent and he will only be leving via trade. Bengals will NOT trade him to Pittsburgh.
@@carlaauri8461 Rumors were floating the other day that the Ravens were interested in him. They'll either be willing to trade him to any AFC North rival or none at all.
Yeah because Tomlin handled AB and LeVeon magnificently. Tomlin doesn't call these guys out when they are hurting the team
Man i really really hope we get Stephon Gilmore if not another WR or linemen even though its not much in FA atp
Just get aiyuk or JJ and draft center or trade picks for some center and o line.
He got alomg with Pete Carroll...Russell said Pete was like a father to him.
Yup. They had done differences on offensive approach, but that was much like a father telling his son to date a safer chick. Nothing to see over there…never was.
And Russ never tried to have him fired.
Mr. Fields will be playing Week 4 ! Hayburner will be a Deer in Headlights !
Fields will be playing on the sideline all year long. That O-Line had better protect Russ because defenders will be trying to take him out so the inferior QB (i.e., Fields) can play.
He’s talking about Justin Jefferson. Not even kidding lmao there’s tons of rumors they’re trying to get that done in the city right now
Or aiyuk when mention tomlin in a tweet like a hour or so ago lmao
Is this the same Dulac that said the Steelers would not add any quarterback to “compete” with Kenny Pickett for the starting qb job?
I assume it's what his sources with the team were telling him at the time. He's not guessing or making predictions - he's reporting what people tell him.
At the time he reported that that could’ve been the truth
@@camicawber yeah, I’m sure he’s claiming his info is via his “insider sources,” but posting something completely opposite of what happened destroys his credibility. His sources are either idiots or liars and by extension, he looks like an idiot or liar for his post.
@@michaeltalbert7222 He's the beat writer for the main newspaper in Pittsburgh. His sources are real. They work for the Steelers.
It only destroys his credibility if you don't understand the job. He's reporting on what he hears from those sources. He's not guessing. He's not laying bets. He's going with what he's told - that's the reporter's job.
I'm curious how you know that his sources with the team weren't saying EXACTLY what he reported previously. I mean, these are people that he knows and you don't. He can call Dan Rooney, Omar Khan, and Mike Tomlin. He can call Kenny Pickett, Russell Wilson, and Justin Fields. You can't. So how are you so sure he got it "wrong"?
@@BG33917 Yup. It feels like not many people understand how journalism works.
AB as crazy as he is has been breaking all the big stories before they happen and he said on his twitter tonight at 10pm ET that the Steelers and Vikings are currently working to get a trade done for Jefferson. Whether true or not he has been insanely accurate on his insider reporting.
This would be the icing on the cake of free agency !!!
1000000% untrue. If you are an actual.Steelers fan. You'd know we would never pay any WR 100 MIL
It'll be Aiyuk
Wr Sutton or Diggs?
Or Adams not happy in Vegas?
For one of Steelers 2 3rds in the draft.
Diggs is too emotional if you dont constantly feed him the ball. Adams is an interesting option.
@@Nate-zm6bd trust Coach T mold Diggs into a positive asset if they trade for the guy. But sure is not the best option.
they will talk to Mike Williams, if not him then Tyler Boyd, plus the draft is full of good WRs and they draft WRs like no other team
Tee Higgins is also out there as someone who isn't happy with his team.
true but isnt he franchise tagged? so that requires a trade / giving up picks@@FiresCollide
Steelers bringing back AB. I can feel it in my bones
Nope
Good lord lol no way
Never say never, but... Never 😂
You shut your mouth right now
@@FiresCollide how epic would that be
The people in Pittsburgh must respect Justin Fields' talent as a quarterback. It about time somebody did !
He will be a good understudy, but Russ is the dude, and Steelers fans need to be glad about that.
Cant believe Dulak
3:42 Is there another Mike Williams?
Mike might make this Party.
Glorious!
RICH I SAID THAT 4 DAYS AGO
Give us Deebo
Aiyuk
Rumors are they want to trade for Aiyuk or Deebo Samuel
Rlly ? Dang I wanted Justin Jefferson
Stop making things up. There are zero rumors of this
The Rooneys don't speak publicly often, but when they do...
I think Dulac is referring to Deebo Samuel
Yea unfortunately
@@chloeschubeswhy unfortunately? He’s a great wr that by the way ACTUALLY BLOCKS
Justin Jefferson
@@JRay-sm8xt in the past I would say you were nuts but with the way Khan is maneuvering, nothing would surprise me
Paying a ton for receivers when you have a QB room that is notoriously inefficient of utilizing their WRs properly would be funny.
Also the point about tomlin being so liked, so was pete carroll, and RW3's ego made him try to get pete fired.
That’s not the Steelers room at all lmao you’re living in another teams world. Pittsburgh is legendary.
What? Russ is extremely efficient! Wth are you talking about?!
Russ never tried to get Pete fired. Russ was at Pete’s retirement party two months ago laughing with Pete and Richard Sherman…AT SHERM’S RESTAURANT, no less.
You should just avoid talking about Russ. You don’t know what you’re talking about!
devante adams - justin jefferson or brandon aiyuk?????????????
The Steelers aren't off the rails. It's just that they don't have to pay Big Ben money, so they can spend in other areas.
Or bigger?…my interest is PIQUED! Any guesses what Gerry might mean?!
Imagine if its Justin Jefferson lmao
Bigger than Williams ? Diggs Jefferson tee Higgins Justin Simmons
Justin Jefferson
No to hard knocks
Love the FA signings .and let go all out win some playoffs
#1 story Chiefs threepeat
#2 story Harbaugh to Chargers
#3 story Rodgers return to Jets
#4 story Steelers QB controversy
There’s no QB controversy! Why can’t people get it through their thick heads? Russ was brought in to be the starter. Fields is the backup, and he’s not good enough to even compete with Russ as the starter. If you get your wish, you’re going to wind up with a bunch of unnecessary losses and p!sses off vets.
HELL NO TO THE HARD COCKS, no way this franchise would degrade what is one of the greatest NFL franchises!!!
Tomlin already has...just saying.
Surely he doesn’t mean Justin Jefferson
Yes he does. Pittsburgh & Minnesota are working as we speak.
They should not be!!!!
"...or bigger..." Can you say, Davante Adams? 👀
Justine Jefferson
Justin Jefferson for sure.
@@mattymack894he’s not a WR2 they are looking for wr2 not wr1
Playoff teams don’t qualify for hard knocks
Justin Jefferson..?
Nah not that, unless I’m mistaken the Vikes were offered two firsts for him and they turned it down
If the Steelers get Jettas we are winning a superbowl
Can’t do Hard Knocks because they made the playoffs.
No way it’s Justin Jefferson right?
10-7 isn't good enough - Dave Tepper just pooped all over a stack of $1,000 bills and had a stroke.
he's referring to justin jefferson btw, when he's referencing "bigger than mike williams"..and i don't like the early pieces of what the steelers might have to give, pickens and 2 first's, no thank you....don't mind the 2 first's and possibly a 3rd, but jefferson is not worth a "Star" player and 2 picks, especially if that player is a "FREAK" wide receiver
Justin Jefferson!
Main thing I want to see is someone BESIDES the Chiefs win the Super Bowl. Finally got rid of the Pats winning it all the time, only to be replaced by KC!
Having witnessed the quality of play by the final 8 teams, the Steelers were not anywhere close to going deep. I'm very excited to see how these moves play out on the field.
Devante Adams 🏈
Bad attitude. Been around Rodgers for too long. But it would be great to hear him declare that Russ is still the shiznit!
Same guy that told us he knows for sure from inside sources the Steelers aren’t bringing in any veteran QB’s and are sticking with Pickett.
Gentleman that was just a Wonderful Start to week 2 of FA n end of One Exciting Steelers Week 1 of Free Agency 😀 Beyond the QB Shuffle n Queen n other great Acquisitions Another possible WR Bombshell signing is what is Necessary to place the Icing on the cake 🎂 for The Draft for Center OT WR n possibly CB n LB!! Let's Gooooo Steelers Nation 😎
Hater
Looks Like the Steeler's are trying to do what the NY Yankees have been accused of doing. Buying a Super bowl championship.
The biggest move would be moving on from Mike Tomlin! Trade him for a couple draft picks and rebuild.
Good thing you’re an internet troll
Omar khan wants and I think he will pull off a blockbuster deal Justin Jefferson
There’s absolutely no way
Or so you think... @@jacob45415
No thanks
We'd NEVER EVER EVER NEVER pay a WR 100 mil
Wow great pop but horrible camera operator maybe the worst I’ve seen
Could they get Tyler Boyd.
He’s slow. We need to get faster
Gerry dulac foreshadowing 👀
Justin Jefferson!!!!!
I'm also still wondering what the Steelers are going to do for a center.
BRIAN ALLEN AND ZACH IN THE DRAFT
@@SugaRay5x2 If they are still there perhaps. Although I'll wager that Omar might trade some pics up to grab one of them. Because for right now the Steelers have no center at all.
Absitively !! One of the 2 !! 😎
@wraith1117 Brian Allen is a free agent we can trade back from 20 a couple times still get adonai and Zach and Patrick
If we don't sign someone soon I think we go after Jackson Powers Johnson and trade up for him.
Mike Williams visiting...
It took several years of Steelers fighting their own culture and putting up with players with bad attitudes and then finally a couple of pathetic offensive years maybe three or four and they heard a lot of bitching and moaning from Steelers fans all over the world and that's what force their hand to say we need to do something different
Ayuk!!!!!!!!!!
6-11
Hater
Gerry Dulac not exactly right about anything lately
Dulac is literally the mouthpiece for the team, he knows Tomlin very well personally. What he says is what the Steelers organization wants him to say, and that is not necessarily the truth. They don't want him just giving away all their accurate info about what they want to do. He knows exactly who they are targeting and who they aren't, but the team does not want the public or other teams to know that.
Just like Khan and Tomlin said after the Bill's playoff game "we believe our starting qb for next year is currently in our building." That was obviously a lie, whether they were talking about Kenny or Mason. It's all just misdirection. Dulac is super valuable to listen to and a true insider, but you really have to parse what he is saying thoroughly and be skeptical, because he is effectively the team's public media personality.
Tomlin has one year to make this work, or he needs to be replaced.
Yup
Finally. Someone here posted something note worthy. It smells of desperation, and if this fails, MT is definitely gone.
First
This nonsense about RW being a disruption in the locker is not coming from the guys in the locker room. The fact is that RW being so corny is just a reaction to him always being so positive. This is just pure rumor and innuendo from the myriad of RW haters.
Yup! 👍🏾
Why should anyone believe anything this guy said after he adamantly told you that the Steelers wouldn’t be interested in Wilson, Fields or anyone else? This guy said they were rolling with Pickett and we are supposed to take what he says as gospel?
Because at the time it was true. He got that from his sources. At the time, they weren't interested. But things with Wilson opened up and things with Pickett deteriorated quickly. It happens in free agency. People need to understand how both business and journalism work, I swear.
@@FiresCollide His sources were wrong. We know how “journalism” works in 2024. These people get to say whatever they want and are never held accountable for any of it. They care about getting the story out first for clicks and attention, not about having integrity and reporting what is right. I wish I could be horrible at my job and get keep it, too.
Because he is a mouthpiece for the Steelers. He did say that and he knew for a fact he was lying, just like Khan and Tomlin lied about the same thing multiple times in press conferences. He actually knows exactly what the Steelers want to do, he is good friends with Tomlin, and the Steelers use him to say what they want to the public. He could be lying, he could be telling the truth, but he definitely knows who and what the Steelers want to target. So take what he says with a grain of salt, he is not trying to accurately report factual information, he is simply being a public mouthpiece for the organization.
Though I will say that I do believe when the playoffs ended their intention was fully to bring Mason and Kenny back. Then when Russ was available so cheap they had to go for it.
@@Milehighmez15true! Journalism sucks these days.
@@Milehighmez15 He's pretty much always right. And his sources were right at the time but things change. It's not that serious, my guy. 😂
Can’t trust this guy
He is literally a mouthpiece for the Steelers organization, his own goal is not to report factual info but to report what the Steelers tell him to. A true insider. He does know what they want to do, but you are correct. You can't trust what he says any more than Tomlin or Khan.
a month ago didn't he say no justin fields or russell wilson? lol
Yeah, “they won’t pursue any QB who aims to start”.
@@Uvalacrosse10: …Unless that QB has already been a proven starter. Certain QBs are exceptions to those rules, and there are six:
Rodgers
Mahomes
Wilson
Jackson
Allen
Watson
Even Burrow, with his injury history might have a tough time if he winds up getting injured too many times and Cincinnati bails on him.
He might be an injury-bust.
Dulac doesn't know much
The amount of Player the refused to play for the Steelers after it’s over 10 any news on why? Yeah tomlin it’s all talk no real coaching.
Coach T is jacked about this one? Sheesh... Can we trust what he says anymore?
Let me see how to put this....YES you can trust what he says. He didn't lie or mislead Pickett. It's time to let that ship sail. Pickett is no longer here because he chose to leave. He overplayed his perceived hand and got bit
Given how little success Tomlin had with a team stacked with multiple Hall of Famers left over from the Bill C era, don't hold your breath
I think the Rooneys finally figured out the just above .500 record every year giving away to a crappy draft position is getting them no where on top of losing playoff games and to teams with2-10 records that they better spend some freaking money already unless they really love seeing a HC go the HOF with 17+ non losing seasons that are average with no more super bowls to show for it
Gerry is consistently wrong.
Tomlin s finished now after bringing in the 2 most combined losing QBs in last 4 yrs
😂I’ll bet against that 2:1.
This should honestly be Mike Tomlin’s final chance to prove he should be the head coach. I doubt the Rooney’s will oblige but the man has had numerous opportunities to make noise in the playoffs but has been beyond underwhelming.
If Tomlin is gone they might aswell remove the owner aswell
I would like to see them hold off on any kind of extention until he earns it on the field. I get that he is a player's favorite .... but this isn't a popularity contest. The H/C has to be able to push/motivate the team to get results. I felt the lack of discipline on the field last season was because the players felt 'safe' to act out without recourse. Football is a team game that requires the individual to buy 'in' and play for the man beside you in order for the whole to be successful. You can dance when you are holding the trophy....until then...stick to business.
@@michaelmilsom9518👏👏👏 exactly
Pete Carrol is a ? Nonsense this Meat Head just makes Rich feel better about his Fawning over both Wilson and Fields! Tomlin is a Good Coach and I like but these moves will keep Steelers competitive not a Super Bowl run!
Nope. They’re going this year. This squad is more loaded than the one Russ had his rookie year, and he almost took that one to the SB. Believe it or not, Russ got better every year of his career. He just had some setbacks with Denver.
Russ van gets the Steelers to the SB.
It’s funny to hear how people were talking sh!t about Russ when he left Seattle but every opposing team in the AFCw started loading up on defense when the trade went down, including KC. That’s why they had such a good D last season.
The same will happen in this division. Fans and media think they know all about Russ but opposing DCs and defenders know something different.
OBJ? 😂
As long as Mediocre Mike is the coach, all of these moves are academic and irrelevant.
Might be right
Russel Wilson was as bad a move as Trubisky. One is a washed-up has-been, the other a never-will-be.
But FIELDS, i love that pick-up!!
You sound crazy. 😂
@@DeCurtaRican You think Trubisky was good?
They need to trade Russell Wilson now. Russell will leave you holding the bag. Just ask the Broncos.
How will they be left holding the bag for the league minimum?
@@Dschrec another losing season buddy
Yeah. Every Broncos fan is scared Russ is going to perform better and make Broncos look like exactly what they are: a dumpster fire.
@@zap...: The Steelers haven’t had a losing season since George W. Bush was in Office…or was it Clinton?
As long as Tomlin is on the sidelines mismanaging the game clock...or making bad situational calls during the game...FFS people...stop confusing arrogance for ability!
I’m not other words, he’s Pete Carroll. Russ won a lot of games with Pete Carroll, and should’ve won four straight SBs to start his career but came within one play of winning two.
I hope tomli he says no to Hrd knocks. They need to keep eveything private in that lockeroom. No reality tv ...please no
Steelers aren't eligible for Hard Knocks since we were in the playoffs
@moonphasetoys That's good . I can't stand reality TV they should leave these teams alone . That lockeroom should be private, because then some other team can be watching that and get insight on other teams that are on the show.
@@moonphasetoysthey do in season hard knocks now. Steelers could be selected
Right!
Deebo
