In hindsight the fact we expected a 36 year old qb to succeed with only one weapon who’s a moody wideout who only runs go routes, was a really bad call on us.
@@perryellis1423 There was no "switch " it was understood at training camp that when Wilson was healthy enough, he was going g to be the starter. Do you not pay attention or did you just forget that point?

Mike Tomlin promised Russ the job no matter what. But he never expected Justin Fields and Arthur Smith to have success like they did especially early on. That's why he used the Dallas cowboys game as an excuse to bench Justin Fields so Russ could play weaker teams like the jets and giants. Mike Tomlin in his press conference also said he was the lone ranger in making the QB switch after six games. So yeah, I followed everything, you seem to omit certain points in the story.

@PatriotWatchUSA how can a backup lose the locker room, make it make sense, y'all Russ fans are annoying and this patriot watch is really Steelers watch hating on Justin Fields, like I said this is someone in Russ camp that's being paid to troll Justin Fields
@@chrisvangorder4965 26 year old with huge upside!?!?!?!? When did we sign him? Because I KNOW you're not talking about Justin Fields!!!! He's been in the league for 5 years now and absolutely NOTHING has changed with him!!! His mechanics are terrible, he doesn't progress through his reads, yeah, he has a strong arm, but he doesn't know how to use it. His longest pass was 64 yards, he averages 7 yards per attempt, his career passer rating is 10 points below what the NFL considers "average", and he puts the ball on the ground more than a line judge!!!! Here's a little food for thought for yall. The only season he didn't have double-digit fumbles is this year and that's because he only played 6 games. He has a total of 44 fumbles, including 6 in the 6 games he played for us, so he was, sure as hell, on pace!!! 44!!!!! That's 1 less than the number of touchdowns he has over his career!!! His career passer rating is 83.7 or something like that. The passer rating for an "average" QB according to the NFL is between 90-95!!! So, all of that being said, I'll take a veteran that gets sacked, over a slightly above average backup and red zone gadget player, that can't hold onto the ball!!
Steelers not ready for Russell Wilson. Like the Broncos they are stuck being a third tier team and don't want to accept it! An NFL team in this new era must be able to recognize the best and accept it when it is given to them! You can't get something for nothing! Build the right foundation. Build a winning O- line and protection for the QB, get talented WRs, and talented RBs, build a great defense, maintain a great performing special teams, and then the QB can do his job! Let Smith keep Justin Fields, and stay in third place in AFC North. The Bengals are coming up to second place next season with Russ gone, and that's just a fact!
I agree Chris! The DL has to be the priority in the draft. If not Rd 1 then rd 2 because it’s a weakness and Cam Heyward is 35 yrs old! Additionally, If you strengthen the D-Line that will take away some of the focus teams are putting on TJ Watt.
Anyone who think Fields could have won any of those last games as starter is nuts! Arthur needs to call plays to score right out of the gate with wilson. The 5 games we were leading at halftime we were undefeated. The deep ball early opens run game intermediate passes all of it. Wilson since leaving Seattle has stopped running. At Seattle when he ran it literally was when he was the most dangerous QB in NFL and it froze Defences. All 4 teams left their QBs run when necessary and have plays called where they run. If Wilson is refusing to run ( I am a HUGE Wilson fan). Then let wilson go. Hurts to say that. Wilson is not going to be looking for big bucks on this contract he knows he didnt play big money football. If Wilson is done here he is dont in the NFL! No other team will want him unless they lose QB mid season and then reach out to mid season. There is no way guys that Fields wins any of those last 5 games!
@augustbrante8117 Ciera ain't gat shit on you. My goodness. You sure love you some old ass Russ. You can talk bad about Justin, all you want, but what you and your ilks can't run from no matter how much you Russ lovers try to, and that is he lost the last 5 starts he had and looked terrible while getting beat down. He is a one trick pony, and that's it. Old ass Russ has shown the Stealers who he really is. If someone shows you who they are, believe them. Obviously, you're still in the denial phase. Russ can't throw over the middle, too short. He can't scramble like he once did, that's why he takes so many sacks .You saw how he played, but you refuse to believe your own eyes. All your boy Russ has left if anything is to throw it deep and hopes a receiver catches it. GTFO with old ass one trick pony Russ.
You've been given a list of games by others in this thread. I'll add that the Steelers would have been competitive even in the games that Fields would have lost. Russ was getting the team blown out.
I'm definitely on board with whatever personnel moves are made this off season. But, when it comes to Pat Meyer and the offensive line, it seems like he's doing a good job overall, and the proof is with Frazier, and McCormick developing, but also keeping the line together as long as possible when injuries to starters occurred. The one glaring weakness seems to be the development of Broderick Jones, but if everyone else seems to be developing just fine, to me that suggests that a lot of Broderick's struggles are on himself, not just Pat Meyer. Just my thoughts on it...
for the draft, I feel they should go DT first. Need a big boy in there. regarding bringing in a senior defensive assistant, what's the point? We already saw Brian Flores get away using this method. Either: 1) the senior defensive assistant is gonna help the D, which then leaves justification to keep Teryl Austin on as the DC despite being carried by the assistant, or 2) the senior defensive assistant is not gonna help the D, which means that senior defensive assistant is gonna take the fall along with Teryl Austin. To me, this ends with the senior defensive assistant jumping ship whether by a job opening elsewhere or by a firing. We know Teryl Austin himself isn't cutting it (see last three years). He's more Keith Butler than Dick LeBeau, beat up on the bad/mediocre teams to inflate the stats and get consistently whipped by the good/great ones. This senior defensive assistant talk seems to be more of a noble move to save Teryl Austin his job than anything else.
@ Its well known that Brady operated with few to no weapons throughout his career. Comical that you tried you hardest to prove otherwise. You got Gronk and I gave you Moss. Twenty years thats quite the list
Kind of disappointing that Mark couldn’t substantiate his article when asked. A bunch of “well I don’t know” answers when asked for specifics… Pittsburgh media knows what gets fan interaction in Pittsburgh and they’re not afraid to fabricate an article for that $$$. A lot of good talking points though, great show!
I think WR, RB, CB, DT should be the move at the draft and get a vet wr as well. I think we could be down to 1 or two wrs right now. You have austin an Wilson. thats it. go get tre williams, savion williams, jack bech.
The offense went downhill when the defense went downhill...& pickens got injured...& the rbs couldn't get downhill...these things happening had nothing with russ... but russ played his part in the crash too
Offense went downhill when you played teams that were better than you. Steelers don't have a very good team especially on offense and OFFENSE wins championships
The question should be does Mike Tomlin want Justin Fields back, or Russ back and if he wants Russ back as his QB 1, will the Steelers management allow him to do that again after it was already proven to be the wrong decision. If the Steelers in particular Art Rooney 2nd allows Mike Tomlin to bring back Russ over Justin Fields. This team will lose a lot of its fan base, I promise you that. Fans are already fed up with Mike Tomlin and even more so with Russ. Now if you bring them both back, you have no one to blame but Art Rooney 2nd. Both back meaning Mike Tomlin and Russell Wilson. But you can't bring Russ and Justin back together it's one or the other, because a fair QB camp competition is not what Mike Tomlin does and it's already proven that Arthur Smith wants Justin and not Russ, so the Steelers have to choose, one man who is under contract is Arthur Smith. And he should have final say this time.
@@PatriotWatchUSA Caleb Williams is a bust, Jayden Daniels is better and so is Bo Nix, Caleb is too zesty to be a QB. Caleb is a total bust, when Ben Johnson tries to coach that bust and he can't get nothing out of him the bears will be looking stupid as always
@@PatriotWatchUSA stop saying you have a franchise QB because y'all don't, Jayden Daniels and bo Nix are franchise QBs they took their team to the playoffs as rookies. Caleb got his coach fired.😂🤣😂
@PatriotWatchUSA what I find disturbing about you is this, I just searched bears news about them hiring Ben Johnson as the head coach and after is searched all the comments, I noticed you patriot watch didn't have a single comment on the bears pages 🤔. So like I said you're someone in Russ camp who Russ is paying to troll Justin Fields because Russ needs money to pay for his lifestyle, but he's washed as QB and the Steelers are done with him. He can go on Pat McAfee shows all he wants and lie about negotiating contracts but the truth is this as long as Arthur smith is the OC, Russ will not be back as the Steelers QB period. So go find Russ another team like the Giants or Jets. How come they don't have any interest in Russ??? Because he's washed, that's why. Ok Russell watch or whatever disguise and keyboard you're hiding from. Go be a bears fan liar
@@PatriotWatchUSAno way you are calling g other people "casuals" and "emotional." You never support any of your CLAIMS with facts. You are always up in your feelings about JF.
The Steelers media is really a sad thing. These guys are horrible! It's very simple. You resign Justin Fields and get him 4 weapons & turn him lose aka j Daniels Washington commanders
If Wilson is not the guy then sign Justin and sign him asap . I’ll take Justin over Cousins or Darnold 7 of 7 days a week. Yea I know Justin didn’t do anything overly spectacular … and Russ was the better QB for a good portion of the season . But … we need the mobility and Justin who is turning only 26 this March did show some improvement from his Chicago days IMO. Go with youth and a potential ceiling as opposed to over spending on some other teams FA . If so just keep Russ then at least he knows the system.
If we go into 25 with Corey trice as our starter that’s embarrassing but this is also the same team that ran van jefferson as number two last year so we’ll see
Russ was the most dangerous in his career when he ran and he literally froze Ds and would decide at line of scrimmage whether he was going to run or throw. If this is Russ's decision not to run then let him go! All of the playoff teams left call QB runs and they improvise runs too. All of them. Russ can still run but either they wont let him or he told broncos and Stellers he wants to be pocket QB. Not really sure who has made that decision. but if it is Wilson Steelers need to let him go. I would never have Fields as long term solution Not one of those last 5 games would have we won with Fields at QB. Maybe draft one. But if Wilson willing to play as he did in Seattle resign him and have him run the ball at least 5 times a game throw long ball at least 5 times a game and that will open every other aspect of the game.
He wont even be picked up by any other NFL team to be starter. He is second string QB ar trick play QB. Name one of the last 5 games that Steelers lost that if Fields would've been starter the Steelers would've won? Not one!
Meyer could not that Dotson was a pro bowl RT. which its where he played in college. now he has moved 66 to other side in which he played in college. plus 77 has actually regressed. time to find another coach.
Every remaining final four team has a mobile/ running QB and y'all up here talking like the Steelers don't need or want Justin Fields to be QB 1. Keep it real Russ is washed he can't move like that anymore and Justin Fields is the best QB for the Steelers with Arthur Smith. Arthur Smith wanted Justin Fields from the beginning but Mike Tomlin over ruled him and these reporters who keep denying it are full of crap, because they must be getting paid by Russ camp to say otherwise.
Question: I always hear, "We must get the Defense off the Field".. as if it's more tiring than offense. When our offensive is on the field I never hear about the time they are on the field. Is it a physical difference?
Mike Tomlin took the blitz out of Steelers defense. He literally neutered the funnest part of watching our team. This dude is a LOSER. ‘Non losing’ seasons be damned!! This guy sucks.
So if Tomlin stays and Arthur Smith stays and other crap coaches no changes then nothing is gonna ever change on this dang team.then I'm done supporting Pittsburg sick of same mediocre standard .oh we have a somewhat winning season and no playoff wins.tired of Tomlin he needs to go.
I love Daniels but could be a little homer in me bcs he started at ASU his first 2 years and management coaching staff was falling apart and he moved to LSU. ASU coaching right now may be best in NCAAF. That kid has so much talent its scary. Then his attitude on field how he plays around with defenders trying to rattle him is funny too!
Typical end of season fake drama. This one is for the sewing circle. Every QB needs talent around them to be successful. I think that scratchy lottery ticket might have already been scratched but hey why not, how bad can it get?
I am glad everyone agrees that Justin is the best option. He is good enough to at least get you through the season or into a really good draft next year on the cheap. And as Kaboly says you could hit the lottery.
@@PatriotWatchUSA back to your hate and trolling I see. I was wondering when all the justin good news would bring you out. you were silent when he was winning. in due time you will be again.
Funny thing is the team Drafted Mason Rudolph and had him on the team all those years .....Ben Retired and the draft and Bring in Mitch T ....and Kenny Pickett......ans don't give Rudolph a chance or consider him in those 2 years until others are injured.....come to find out he was the best at the position on the team ......my poi t is this coaching staff and front office wouldn't know a good quarterback if he wS was sitting on the home teams bench at the stadium for a home game ......I brought that up because if you are going to draft a guy and keep the guy ....how can you justify ot giving Rudolph a fair shake to start ......if you never plan on him being in football games ....why wS was he even on the roster.......I wouldn't be surprised if the guy listed at 3rd string is not truly the best quarterback 😅.....not only that but the Seahawks and Broncos had zero hesitation in parting ways with Russell Wilson.....that's telling.....one team gave him what 80 million in 2 years to leave 😅.....a good quarterback don't want to come to Pittsburgh it's forced on them like Roethlisberger helped to make this team great despite who was coaching
Russell Wilson got thrown-out of Denver because he was 'set in his ways'. All that bull from Wilson as to how to play ran against the grain of the head coach. Wilson had success in Seattle because he accepted Pete Carrols' offense of run first.
Nobody promises anybody a starting role in the NFL. Where you Steeler fans dreamt that up I have NO idea. JF was on the bench all year because RUSS was better. period.
@@perryellis1423 NO you dumdums didn't sign him to his 5th year option and this would be over. They didn't sign him because he sucks. He's not a franchise QB so why flush 25M down the toilet. You can have lots of below average QB, like JF, for less

He wont even be picked up by any other NFL team to be starter. He is second string QB ar trick play QB. Name one of the last 5 games that Steelers lost that if Fields would've been starter the Steelers would've won? Not one!
@augustbrante8117 We were a mediocre team punching above our weight class. Justin is still the best option moving forward.
@@quelnariemrah5624 I agree resign Justin Fields
@@quelnariemrah5624 If you had Oline and a few weapons you could use several QB but you want to run and play defense.
@PatriotWatchUSA oh so true.
Meyer could not that Dotson was a pro bowl RT. which its where he played in college. now he has moved 66 to other side in which he played in college. plus 77 has actually regressed. time to find another coach.
Every remaining final four team has a mobile/ running QB and y'all up here talking like the Steelers don't need or want Justin Fields to be QB 1. Keep it real Russ is washed he can't move like that anymore and Justin Fields is the best QB for the Steelers with Arthur Smith. Arthur Smith wanted Justin Fields from the beginning but Mike Tomlin over ruled him and these reporters who keep denying it are full of crap, because they must be getting paid by Russ camp to say otherwise.
lol This is going to be so awesome
Russ do not put pressure on a defense like fields sign Russ as a backup
It doesn't matter who the QB is.there doomed playing for Tomlin.they can't run the zone .so many many problems
Put some respect on Kyle Allen's name
I'm drafting a true nose and bumping Benton out
I have seen nothing from any of the coaches to retain any of them what are we talking about
Bring in chase young he’s been a back up the last 2 years and will be cheap and tomlin loves him
What about nose tackle Siaki Ika?
Fields is FRANCHISE. These GUYS ARE A WASTE of AIR SPACE.
PickleBall franchise maybe but NFL franchise not in this lifetime
Question: I always hear, "We must get the Defense off the Field".. as if it's more tiring than offense. When our offensive is on the field I never hear about the time they are on the field. Is it a physical difference?
Takes more energy to react than to act
@@scottlehner7237 nonsense
Great Team, Defense, Offense, QBs, Coach ... win like crazy then tank??? Something stinks. Left the nfl BS racket.
Fields needs to be the guy man. It is so black and white open your eyes.
Be careful what you wish for
Mike Tomlin took the blitz out of Steelers defense. He literally neutered the funnest part of watching our team. This dude is a LOSER. ‘Non losing’ seasons be damned!! This guy sucks.
So if Tomlin stays and Arthur Smith stays and other crap coaches no changes then nothing is gonna ever change on this dang team.then I'm done supporting Pittsburg sick of same mediocre standard .oh we have a somewhat winning season and no playoff wins.tired of Tomlin he needs to go.
To many people betting Washington and the points pushing the line up
I love Daniels but could be a little homer in me bcs he started at ASU his first 2 years and management coaching staff was falling apart and he moved to LSU. ASU coaching right now may be best in NCAAF. That kid has so much talent its scary. Then his attitude on field how he plays around with defenders trying to rattle him is funny too!
@augustbrante8117 kid has really looked good. He has a high ceiling
Watt got worn down over the course of the season
Mark!!
Typical end of season fake drama. This one is for the sewing circle. Every QB needs talent around them to be successful. I think that scratchy lottery ticket might have already been scratched but hey why not, how bad can it get?
It’s sad Rooney only gets rid of coaches as long as he doesn’t owe them money! Rinse and repeat ideology!
I am glad everyone agrees that Justin is the best option. He is good enough to at least get you through the season or into a really good draft next year on the cheap. And as Kaboly says you could hit the lottery.
Hit the lottery by going 4-14 and getting the first pick in the draft. Now we finally agree on something
@@PatriotWatchUSA back to your hate and trolling I see. I was wondering when all the justin good news would bring you out. you were silent when he was winning. in due time you will be again.
It was a MISTAKE to TAKE FIELDS OUT. BIG MISTAKE. RUSSELL is DONE.
You going to be very sad if JF is your guy this year.
Carter is a joke.
Thank you because I stay on his ass no brakes, full gas because he denies truth on the Steelers that others have reported.
Russ is cooked. Move on or it will be rinse and repeat...
Going to be worse with JF next year. Who will be the QB while he's hurt
@@PatriotWatchUSAthey were 4-2 with JF. How would they be worse? We have no evidence to say they would be worse.
Whatever happened to COMMON SENSE? Wasting too much time on a dead issue
Wilson is an egotistical drama queen. A waste.
Some would say a narcissist😬
I think its hilarious people say this but no signs of problems and we can just look at rodgers.
Every team he goes to it's the same result they no longer want him
@@willanracno one wants Rodgers
Chris is clueless keep everybody and hope things will be different
Considering I said to move on from multiple coaches, guess that makes you clueless.
Beating the Raiders Jets and Giants is nothing to be proud about and barely beating the Commanders
Commanders wasn't an impressive win? Really lol Commanders, Ravens, Bengals were the best wins you had all season. All won with Russ at QB.
Loudermilk sucks
Smith wanted Justi n last year. Tomlin wasted a whole year on Wilson.
Exactly and Chris knew this but he refused to report it because he gets paid by Russ camp.
Funny thing is the team Drafted Mason Rudolph and had him on the team all those years .....Ben Retired and the draft and Bring in Mitch T ....and Kenny Pickett......ans don't give Rudolph a chance or consider him in those 2 years until others are injured.....come to find out he was the best at the position on the team ......my poi t is this coaching staff and front office wouldn't know a good quarterback if he wS was sitting on the home teams bench at the stadium for a home game ......I brought that up because if you are going to draft a guy and keep the guy ....how can you justify ot giving Rudolph a fair shake to start ......if you never plan on him being in football games ....why wS was he even on the roster.......I wouldn't be surprised if the guy listed at 3rd string is not truly the best quarterback 😅.....not only that but the Seahawks and Broncos had zero hesitation in parting ways with Russell Wilson.....that's telling.....one team gave him what 80 million in 2 years to leave 😅.....a good quarterback don't want to come to Pittsburgh it's forced on them like Roethlisberger helped to make this team great despite who was coaching
Two teams in a row where Russ didn't get along with his OC. Russ is washed and y'all Russ fans are delusional
He better than JF. That's for sure
@PatriotWatchUSA for a bears fan you sure are deeply devoted to the Steelers team reports 😅
@@PatriotWatchUSAbased on what? Watch how you can't answer.
Russell Wilson got thrown-out of Denver because he was 'set in his ways'. All that bull from Wilson as to how to play ran against the grain of the head coach. Wilson had success in Seattle because he accepted Pete Carrols' offense of run first.
If Tomlin keeps GP, I’ll lose all respect for him..
Would Justin take 3 years at 20 million without a no trade and promise him the starting role?
No because the market is higher for QBs, the Steelers have to pay him 35 mill for three years minimum
Nobody promises anybody a starting role in the NFL. Where you Steeler fans dreamt that up I have NO idea. JF was on the bench all year because RUSS was better. period.
@@perryellis1423 NO you dumdums didn't sign him to his 5th year option and this would be over. They didn't sign him because he sucks. He's not a franchise QB so why flush 25M down the toilet. You can have lots of below average QB, like JF, for less
@PatriotWatchUSA oh you know it's never a official social media section about the Steelers until "Steelers watch" aka Patriot watch comes to talk bad about Justin Fields 😅.
Russ is paying his camp good money to troll Justin Fields
@PatriotWatchUSA yea like Caleb Williams
Draft 2 defensive lineman early...we drafted 3 offensive lineman last year
Steelers not ready for Russell Wilson. Like the Broncos they are stuck being a third tier team and don't want to accept it! An NFL team in this new era must be able to recognize the best and accept it when it is given to them!
You can't get something for nothing! Build the right foundation. Build a winning O- line and protection for the QB, get talented WRs, and talented RBs, build a great defense, maintain a great performing special teams, and then the QB can do his job! Let Smith keep Justin Fields, and stay in third place in AFC North. The Bengals are coming up to second place next season with Russ gone, and that's just a fact!
