I think Russell is in the stage where he’s declining just like how big Ben was and that’s the issue so they have to get Justin Fields developed to be able to compete for championship. Author Smith has got to work with what he has and not be so stubborn with the playcalling, the bangles are not playing with us. We’re going to have to show up.
I don’t think you’d be saying this if the O-Line was even slightly competent. I don’t disagree RW’s best years are behind him, but better protection would result in better play at the QB position and Russ can still cook
@PatriotWatchUSA I disagree vehemently. Justin Fields led one of the best offenses in B1G 10 history. He can scramble. He can throw on the run. He can make all the throws. He is, by definition, a franchise QB. Try building a competent offense around him before you look as dumb as the Bears.
It’s not russ’ fault he has one good receiver in Pickens. I think Austin is the number 3 guy going forward but we need a number 2 and we don’t have that. The Oline is young and very banged up at this point of the year they’ve done good for what they are but we need to get Fautanu back.
I'm tired of hearing people say he was benched. He was always QB2 and Russ only wasn't playing because of injury. Any other time we've seen the QB1 get healthy and come back. Justin only gave the position back to the QB1. He did not get benched.
@@steelphantom9105We were averaging 11.5 points allowed per game under Fields. When Russ came in, in 6 games it was averaging 21 points per game. That means 86 points total under Fields 6 starts and 138 under Russ.
@@kevingreen1944 exactly! Others will say he sucks but I see that he can be good, he just needs support from a coach. Tomlin will never win us another Super Bowl, and the sooner he leaves, the sooner we can win one
Ok, but what is the Steelers goal in the near future? Is it just to get to 9-10 wins? Or is to actually to be able to complete against KC and Buffalo in the playoffs? Because if it is the is the latter neither QB will take the Steelers anywhere meaningful in the playoffs.
Bring in fields we need a mobile QB and it’s him . KC ,Bills, Eagles,Ravens all have mobile quarterbacks throws off the defense off a bit. What the hell are we waiting for Steelers? 2:59
Fields is the guy long term. Did you hear what Cam Newton said on First Take during the Steelers and Bears segments? Cam knows Fields is the guy. Rex Ryan knows it too.
@@Wicked_RotF30 Will NEVER happen EVER JF will be a free agent. The only way he is a Steeler is if nobody wants him which there is a very good chance nobody will for obvious reasons.
@@Wicked_RotF30 Cam's just salty Russ still out there playing while he was forced to retire because no one wanted him despite being about the same age.
Everybody is prisoners of the moment steelers played arguable 3 of the best teams in the nfl 2 of those games alot of starters was out only thing that really killed us was turnovers and big plays getting called back
Russ should have never got in over Fields in the first place. Fields had the Steelers 4-2 and the 2 losses were because of our defense. If the defense did their job he would have been undefeated.
@@Wicked_RotF30they averaged 18 PPG and 180 passing yards per game under fields. Literally Kenny Pickett numbers. The fact that you blame the defense for the 2 losses is ridiculously laughable when the defense straight up carried them during those 6 games. They lost both games where their opponent scored more than 13 points. They have wins in that stretch where they scored 13 and 18 points.
I love what Cam Newton said on First Take! Steelers should develop Fields and allow him to be the guy! He can do everything the top QBs can do and more. Develop him and allow him to lead the franchise to a new dynasty!!!
Squirrels JF will never start in the NFL after this year unless someone gets hurt. Nobody will build their franchise around a guy who doesn;t have it between the ears and is hurt often.
They didn't bench Justin Fields!! He was the designated backup in training camp. He was playing because Wilson was injured. It's kind of like if back in the day Ben Roethlisberger was injured in camp and missed the first few games. So Mason Rudolph started those games until Ben could play. You wouldn't say Rudolph was benched for Roethlisberger! The starter came back when he got healthy.
Ita nothing like that at all. Ben was a franchise QB and already proven, Russell and fields were both on prove it deals essentially. So they did indeed bench Fields im not saying they wrongfully benched him but they did bench him.
NO they benched him no doubt. This isn;t a debate. He was the starter and was removed and put on the bench. He didn't play well enough or hed be the starter. it easy
We honestly just need more talent on offense. I believe Roman Wilson and Calvin Austin will be great 3rd and 4th options we need a true number 1 or someone thats just as good as GP but a much better route runner maybe( Emeka). We also need another RB to pair with Warren. I would draft another LT and force a camp battle with Jones at that position since i suppose Troy will be the starter at RT next season.
Smith play calling changed with Wilson because of the many many things he’s unable to do.. he’s limiting the whole team.. we had George running the whole route tree early none of that now
It’s Justin that is limiting, not Russell. He can’t read defenses out go through progressions, he has one option and if it isn’t there he runs. What are you even talking about?
@ he doesn’t throw stop routes doesn’t throw hitches doesn’t throw deep comebacks… you know so much but didn’t notice all those routes have disappeared from the playbook yall just want to blame the OC… all the experts wanted fields Tomlin was the only one that wanted Russ and he has been bad against every decent defense he played only was good against the 3 worst defenses in the league.. you never heard fields get boos at home even he was under center.. never averaged 4 3 and outs game either.. because Russ is so limited he’s easy to play against.. id special teams or defense ain’t setting him up he’s worthless
@ 12 days ago you weren’t saying all this BS. You really think the routes have become more limited under a Super Bowl winning vet than a has done absolutely nothing 4th year trash qb who was not even allowed to change plays at the line because he can’t read defenses? That’s beyond stupid bro. I also ain’t blaming the OC, Russ has not been good last 3. But saying it’s all on him is a joke. Two injury riddled games with no GP. All three games our defense got killed for over 400 yards. The O line has been dog walked. Justin fields wins none of those games by the way
@ I definitely was saying it I’ve been saying it since the jets game.. and how he almost lost the giants game for us but TJ saved him… because I’m not stupid I know what to look for you think some bum throwing up prayers is going to be effective against good teams.. dude has been a bum since Seattle he left because he wanted to learn how to play the position and they didn’t think he was capable of playing that way.. so he went to Denver with the guy responsible for a rod last few years and was trash got with Payton and was trash because he can’t play on time from the pocket like a real qb.. he has never been the guy ever since they tried to run through him he never got anywhere.. do you know his last playoff victory? They didn’t win that Super Bowl because of him he rode the coat tails of a great team.. you really are a simp.. blame everybody except the person that’s supposed to make it all work.. bro has one of the highest sack rates with lowest pressure rates and yall blame the Oline.. the offense is worst since he took over and yall blame the oc.. Bryce young took it to the chiefs with less than Russ and yall blame the skill group.. there’s a nice break down on Reddit you should go look at it because you sound like a blind fan that doesn’t know what he’s talking about.. Russ is a bum.. we were better off leytingg he fields develop.. you know the qb that has gotten better every single year besides disastrous coaching that you can see is once again ruining a top tier talent..
@ and it would be stupid to play fields now Tomlin ended our season with the switch.. and like I said Smith and the other offensive specialist knew it wasn’t the right switch..
You are correct he isn't the problem. The problem is playing 3 elite teams in 11 days without a fully healthy team. Even with Austin (who I'm not a fan of) we can cause a problem for any team with Tomlin and Russ. We almost beat Buffalo with Mason last year, with Canada's playbook. We just have to hope that Tomlin and players don't actually listen to what the "fans" are saying which I am optimistic that they don't.
It's good to here from you because you understand whats going on and the losses were not on Fields. When Fields played against the Broncos he beat Russell and his defense gave the game away.
We need juice !!! He’s the playmaker we need I say start him against cincy he has 11 days to prepare and see he got!! In 2 weeks we don’t have a signed qb ! Don’t let this guy walk
As a bears fan I can tell you the deep ball is one of underrated things about Justin. He throws a great deep ball. It doesn’t float so he is able to hit receivers in stride. Saw it plenty of times with DJ Moore. Unfortunately, since the bears were in the same boat with Pittsburgh with wide receivers , a lot of fields best throws were dropped. Like I’m talking right in the receivers bread basket dropped. Also we had a lot of those plays called back due to bs penalties. Fields can play man, I’ve seen this dude put a team on his back plenty of times, unfortunately the effort that he gives on the field isn’t reciprocated by the folks at the top. They didn’t give him shit in Chicago, then in Caleb’s first year he has arguably 3 number one WRs and a pro RB. Then he goes to Pittsburgh and gets benched after a 4-2 start lol
It’s Arthur smith play calling for the lack of production on the offense because the Steelers are staying with their old ways of things and thinking different results. The offense is not doing its job of putting up points and staying on the field.
I’m on this. I don’t see Fields is making those chunk rainbow throws to get them out of a jam. Russ takes too many sacks but Fields is worse at it, can’t really read defenses well either. As a Seahawks fan I’ve seen the decline, but he’s still a step up. The playcalling has been pretty rough, watching them run a predicable run play into an obvious failure with no audibles was rough during the rematch of the Ravens.
I agree. The offense looks the same every game just about it’s like you already know what they are about to do before they do it so just imagine how much of an advantage that gives the defense. It’s better than Matt Canada but not by much
@@jkink8049 it’s a bit confusing tbh. Arthur didn’t take advantage of his biggest weapons in Atlanta, did he want to get fired and tank for picks? He doesn’t need to do that now. I don’t want another Seahawks Russ ego coming out, but the dude is talented enough to make some changes at the line
Idk man i usually agree but i think they need to play Russ. You're forgetting how animic it was when JF was playing. We're going against Burrow. We need points. We.need Russ man. I think the extra rest will help too. He's taken a lot of hits lately.
Hey Bro (Off-Season Productions) , I concur. I think.....a major reason QB2 Justin Fields did not become the starter and continue playing is the Conditional trade pick with Chicago Bears, just before the summer training camp began in July of this year. The Steelers FO did not want to give up a 4th Rounder instead, Fields became the backup for the next 12 weeks. It would be interesting, to see, what type of season, the Steelers would have had if, they kept Justin Fields as the starter each of the last 12 weeks and gave a 4th Rounder to the Bears in next year's Draft. 🤔😑
So the Steelers aren't using JF because they don't want to give up a 4th round pick for a starting franchise QBL Maybe the dumbest thing I've herd in 2024. I mean like SUPER stupid
I think the Steelers limited Fields play because they want to only give the Bears a 6th round pick. If Fields plays more they have to give up a 4th round pick. Fields is the franchise guy for the next 15+ years and will win Super Bowls for the Steelers. I believe Fields will go down as better than terry bradshaw.
Yea I never wanted him benched from the beginning. Why bench someone 4-2 who’s 2 losses weren’t really the blame. Plus with this horrible o-line, fields can take off and get 70 yards a game with his legs if the line is just collapsing every play…. Russ can’t. And I agree, people kept talking about the “deep ball” but fields can throw it, he just didn’t have the green light and confidence to do it outside of when it was asked
@ he wasn’t hurt weeks 1-6 or when they used him for the last snap of a game twice post week 10. I doubt he’s actually hurt to the point where he can’t play. Tomlin prolly just sat him to be safe. Same with Pickens, he said he didn’t wanna miss any games and he wanted to play but he was sat by tomlin 🤷🏾♂️
@@PatriotWatchUSA The man wasn’t available for 2 out of the 17 games this year (he’s available for the bengals game) in which he probably wasn’t going to get any snaps anyway and now he’s “hurt all the time”? 😂 crazy. Y’all internet Steelers fans really just make up narratives and roll with it
This kid can be special if he can play relaxed. That’s hard to do when you feel like your job is on the line. Furthermore, Justin was the rock while Author Smith was developing the offense. Right when they fired 30+ against the Raiders and the offense was clicking they put Russ in to take the easy glory.
George Pickens isn’t creating separation because he’s getting double teamed every game. He barely needs it anyway because he almost always wins 1 on 1s
I was ok with coach tomlin switching to Russ for a couple of reasons but I still believe Fields is our future. I'm even ok with the Steelers continuing with Russ now but Fields needs to be the guy moving forward. I think Smith at first wasn't entirely sure how to use Fields but after having an offense with Russ, I can see smith doing a much better job with Fields. I still have expectations this season but if we keep Fields or Russ (and we should), then this year for Smith and Fields is like a prototype season
I think its Arthur Smith, his playcalling has been horrendous early in games. I really dont think Fields would of done good against Philly, KC, and Ravens twice…
Save fields for next season. Nothing can save this season. Don't matter who's in. They aren't beating bills, Ravens, or kc in the playoffs. I can see them beating the Bengals if they make it and or the Texans, but that's it.
None of these Steeler topic’s that people are bring up will make any difference as long as this coaching staff remains in Pittsburgh, it’s all just hot air.
We should stick with Russ, fields is too scared to throw the ball more than 10 yards, if we want to have a chance to win a playoff game we stick with Russ
They benched Fields for losing to the Colts and Cowboys, and for not showing upside. Could he power a shootout if needed? Russ won shootouts like the Bengals(first) game, and he lost to Lamar, Hurts, and Mahommes. Russ still gives the best chance for playoff wins. They just need everyone to play with better effort and discipline. All 11 guys every play.
The Ravens figured Russ out: all three pointers and layups. Now every team is defending Russ the same way, and he isn't adjusting. The Steelers scored ten points against the Chiefs, at home. Whether the defense is playing well or not has no bearing on Russ' inability to score points. Burrow is proving this. The Bengals may lose, but Burrow is still putting up points to help his team. Where's Russ in this?
Idk about this Justin Fields is ok but he’s about to be 26 and when you compare him to the other qbs we have had the last 5 years he has the same problem mason Mitch Kenny and duck had to where he’s not decisive enough with the ball like how Russ and Ben are tbh we are better off resigning Russ and taking a shot on Jaxson dart or drew allar in the 2nd or 3rd of the draft
Your actually the only smart person in this comment section. These idiots really want a qb who throws 130 yards a game and a passing TDS once every other game lmao there idiots
Allow Russ to mentor Fields. Fields is the long term franchise QB of the Steelers who will be at the top of the elite QBs in the NFL. Give him. The opportunity to grow with the franchise. Draft better defense and sign T Higgins and Rico Dowdle in offseason.
Pittsburgh honestly doesn’t deserve Justin fields after they pulled that stunt. Screw the fanbase. Screw the coaches. Screw the franchise. Time for him to move on.
Lol what? For having him be the 2nd qb to a literal future hall of famer who has won a superbowl? Who clearly improved the offense when he stepped in? I'm so glad people like you aren't involved in GM decisions.
@@deaj8450 last 3 games when he finally played someone decent. 10 sacks, 3 fumbles, 3 tds, 2 ints, 555 yards. Expected steady digression every game. And he might play well against cincy this week because their defense is terrible but it’ll be a predictable first round loss once again. Come back in a few weeks! Enjoy!
@colinscholl9495 oh I agree we are losing in the first round, but Justin Fields isn't changing that and it's a joke to suggest he would imo. I never even suggested we were gonna win in playoffs, what gave you that impression?
Nobody said Fields doesn't have a deep ball, I don't know why people claim this. Sounds like a strawman argument to me. Deep balls are one of the main things he's actually good at. Fields struggles in the short to intermediate passing game AKA the bread and butter of every capable modern NFL offense. Not to mention he botches at least one snap per game.
@Off-season Productions just 1 month ago you were calling the Steelers a Super Bowl team. I like your content, but I wish that you would have a little consistency in what you put out bro. This team was picked by many to be a 4-7-win team, and they have far exceeded those expectations. You were in full support of Russ just 2 months ago. IMO your channel will do better if you review some of your old takes before you put out new videos that contradict them. Keep grinding bro, I appreciate the Steelers news.
Yeah well I admit when I’m wrong my takes change based on a series of horrible performances the Steelers got fraud checked didn’t think it would happen but sometimes I’m wrong
@TBGames23BM they still have a chance to get hot at the right time. Other trams could also struggle late, pr come our flat after resting their starters in week 18. The important thing is to remember the ream did better than many expected them too, which is a huge win in and of itself. Fornwhat was supposed to be a rebuilding year they've performed really well.
@off-seasonproductions4715 the problem in those 3 games was more the defense than the offense. Fromnholding teams ton under 14 points a game to giving up an average of 30 points a game in those 3. Really, all 5 games they've lost this season are probably more on the highest paid defense than the offense. Would love to see a video detailing the defensive issues over the last 3 weeks (4 if you include that Bengals game).
Young QBs take time to develop. Look around the legue. Get a good QB coach and develop FIelds. I would rather see him than wilson. Wilson is old and not what he once was.
it not just a qb issue it's a young talented wr who still has horrible attitude like in college an o line that doesn't give qb time an problem where they say fields needs to work under veteran qb wth is the qb coach doing
On another note, you’re saying the Colts game was his best game he couldn’t manufacture any points until the third quarter. Explain how that’s his best game? You’re talking about garbage time stats? He led the offense in six games to bottom of the league numbers there’s nothing he can do better than Russell Wilson outside of running. This is why TH-cam shouldn’t give anybody a channel because y’all don’t know what the fuck you’re talking about on here.
fields put up a better body of work. he and russ have different skillsets. if i had to pick between them for more than 2 years, it's justin. maybe omar has a plan to keep them both.
@@terze2226Fields beat Falcons, Chargers and Broncos. Those are three playoff-caliber teams. Russ lost those games in blowouts. Fields' two losses were by a combined six points. Fields keeps the team in the game, even when they lose. Russ gets blown out.
This heartbreaking collapse is not from the QB position.. the young offensive line is not protecting and the defense completely fell apart due to injuries bad coaching… really disappointing Smith play calling.
@ Steelers have an abysmal receiver room ..not Wilson’s fault. Front office needed to add a top tier WR to the room before the deadline they did not …Arthur Smith’s offense has not been creative enough to adjust to the positions deficits. This typically Tomlin collapse really broke my heart, I thought we had a team this year. Way way too much talent on this team to be 10-7 one and done. We are getting our asses kicked vs Cincinnati the way I see it , I hope I’m wrong.😑
Keep dreaming. You dont need to worry about the offense because the defense is the unit that falls apart in the playoffs. Good qbs and well prepared teams make the steelers zone coverage look like a madden team set to rookie difficulty.
they should've never went away from fields ...and sorry win or lose you can't ask fields to come in during post season after not paying half the year and then he loses blame him for getting the starting nod 1st game in post season that's dirty this kid derserves better you wanted russ you got him now.....stop with the excuses for russ he is and has always been in decline for awhile now ...steelers messed up and can't ask fields to take over the starting job in playoffs and if he loses well fields is trash he isn't the guy either .....hopefully that won't happen unfortunately again tomlin wanted russ you got to stay the course at this point as much as I don't like it is what it is najee and fields will be in better situations next year best luck to them both they deserve better...shame us steeler fans got robbed of possibility seeing fields grow with this team more than likely lost best shot at a future qb for the aging declining vet who was brought in a vet minimum...russ has a moon ball that's it panics under pressure and can't get out of trouble often and when he does he fumbles or throws the ball away
Okay I'm Lost at What People THINK This Magicsl Kool Aid comes from that Automatically makes Someone Elevate their Skillsets. Listen Up. 1st Understand This isn't a Hate Or Love a QB. This is about Who can Operate THIS System to it's Highest Point! If You Think Field's Showed He can Elevate this Offense Higher than Russ has because You are Unhappy with Losing then I am Questioning People Understanding of the Game. Field's had The Easiest Part of this Schedule and didn't score over 20 points. Don't go and add Boz's Field Goals or Defense Scoring. He also showed that He Also makes Crazy Mistakes like "Fumbles" and "Missnaps" . I think People Miss he was in Chicago for 3 Years Prior.. Show me how he elevated his team. He Won 4 Games in Chicago too his last season. Just 4. Comparing Russ Vs Ravens Eagles and Chiefs is NOT Comparable to ANY of those 6 Teams Field's Played Against. So What are People talking about.. 😂😂😂 Justin Always Needed time behind a QB like Russ. Remember Also This is Russ's 7 game after a year. Somehow that and a oline missing assignments is going to make Field's Better. You Know Defenses can Just Let Field's Run and Not Throw which limits HIM ONLY to Stats and The Team Loses. He's a Dynamic Runner Who Hasn't Shown He can Elevate the Team around him to come back. Until Then You're Reaching. Duck Hodges is 5 and 2 which is Better than 4 and 2 and At Least Played against Our Division Rivals and Won. Not Justin.. 😩

@@JAMESJJEFFERS Fr, like the players are fighting currently, even cam heyward posted saying “if 10 players are doing their job and 1 doesn’t, we’re screwed” and he’s a leader!
First of all Justin wasn't benched, he was beat out in camp. Russ is fine, the problem our C is 3rd string, our RG & RT are 2nd string, and our LT gets beat often. We call the wrong plays for Harris, and we do need a 2nd receiver. I'd love for Justin to learn behind Russ another year or two. We need our starting C, and RG, and some Free Agents at RT and LT.
Sorry I dont want 2 see them put Gields in tbere now that tbey have allowed Russ 2 win and now collapsing to where they lost 1st place in AFC north down 2 wild card 3rd place 2 now they can drop even further atcthis point it is not fair 4 Justin to come in after and ha e 2 clean up this mess after the team behind the 8 ball now. Personally I hope Cam and TJ wake up and realize their support 4 Tomlin is too much because itvis Tomlin at fault that these 2 players probably wont b a SB champ.
I’m just gonna come right out and say it….Steelers fans have an insane QB bias. They fall in love with ONE QB and immediately act like every other QB on roster is worse than Hitler himself. Justin Fields is more or less Mitch Trubisky to Steelers fans…albeit Fields is a helluva lot better than Trubisky…our fans hate him just as much(maybe more) than they hated Trubisky. Russell Wilson is more or less Kenny Pickett…a guy who can go out and play awful football for more or less the entire game and immediately have the majority of our fanbase white-knighting in his defense…it’s fucking pathetic. I hope we cut ties with Russ after this season and roll with Fields for a year or two…preferably till 2026 or 2027 when we hopefully draft the future of our franchise at QB.
@@joshuadaniel4443 cool, my point is Steelers fans are treating Justin Fields the same way they treated Mitchell Trubisky…like garbage. Meanwhile, the other QBs who are doing/did just as poorly (Russ and Pickett) get treated as if they can do no wrong and have a million excuses made up for them by Steelers fans. I swear I see Justin Fields get crucified by our fanbase everytime he’d make a simple mistake…but when Russ makes the same mistakes (or even WORSE mistakes) they’re always quick to dismiss them as not being Russ’s fault…it’s ridiculous how biased our fans can be.
Although you’re spot on, we wouldn’t be having this conversation if the O-Line was even above average. Russ can still cook for another couple years, then Justin can step in as franchise QB…until our O-Line improves, neither QB makes any difference whatsoever 🤷🏻♂️
Russ is burning all the meals. He's getting the Steelers blown out because he can't score. He also isn't sustaining drives. There have been a lot of 3-and-outs lately. And the offense still starts slow. Now that teams are taking away his underthrown 50/50 moon ball, he doesn't seem to be able to do much else.
@@cr2lives everything you just said includes partial blame placed on the O-Line…it’s not all Russ or Justin’s fault as far as how the offense rolls. Improve the O-Line and we’ll see higher scoring for sure
@@PatriotWatchUSA I disagree, JF has the skill set to be a franchise QB within an established system and a solid O-Line…things he’s never had, including now. The Steelers system is raw, the O-Line is inexperienced and mistake-prone
Oline is trash defense is injured. Thats our problem. Could use another receiver or we could actually use Mike Williams. Fields isn't going to make the difference
Well dude the stats speak for itself. In the amount both teams played Russell doubled Fields passing yards and I think tripled his touchdowns. That shows that Russell is better but honestly it really doesn't matter who was quarterback because that offensive line is the worst in the NFL and has been the worst for many many many many many years years
Fields was benched because our D was giving up 16 points a game , and He couldn't score. The man threw 5 tds in 6 games, and only 1 to a wr. Please wake up. The wrs where giving up because of it. How easily you people forget. How about how he fumbled in every game , but one. 😂
@@cr2lives Against the ebst teams in the league. You were out classed. Had nothing to do with Wilson. You spend 2/3 your cap on defense. What do you expect?
Justin Fields isn't a starting NFL QB...When he learns how to read defense and put touch on the ball when needed then he'll be okay, but how many years has he had to hire a QB Guru to learn in the off-season to get better..? Playing video games and chasing women and hanging out shows in his game...He is a back up QB...If you take away his ability to run then he wouldn't even be in the NFL..
We saw this movie too! 2024🤦♂️We are losing rd 1 regardless. If Fields was the answer why hasn't he been starting? Nope. We need a new coach, and new QB room. Again🤦♂️

@cr2lives all we gotta do is build the offense around Fields & let him loose!! I know he can pass cause he did it again LAC & Indy. I was one to get on other fans for talking bout Mike T cause he's from my area 757 but he seems to be getting worse every season. He's too arrogant & he keeps tryna run this stone age offense when he cam go with Fields & Warren, RPO!! I also would like if we can acquire Garrett Wilson 💯

It’s not russ’ fault he has one good receiver in Pickens. I think Austin is the number 3 guy going forward but we need a number 2 and we don’t have that. The Oline is young and very banged up at this point of the year they’ve done good for what they are but we need to get Fautanu back.
I'm tired of hearing people say he was benched. He was always QB2 and Russ only wasn't playing because of injury. Any other time we've seen the QB1 get healthy and come back. Justin only gave the position back to the QB1. He did not get benched.

Ok, but what is the Steelers goal in the near future? Is it just to get to 9-10 wins? Or is to actually to be able to complete against KC and Buffalo in the playoffs? Because if it is the is the latter neither QB will take the Steelers anywhere meaningful in the playoffs.

@ No, but it’s pretty obvious Russ is on the downside of his career and Fields isn’t a franchise QB at the NFL level.

Couldn't agree more 💪
Everybody is prisoners of the moment steelers played arguable 3 of the best teams in the nfl 2 of those games alot of starters was out only thing that really killed us was turnovers and big plays getting called back
Russ should have never got in over Fields in the first place. Fields had the Steelers 4-2 and the 2 losses were because of our defense. If the defense did their job he would have been undefeated.
Your not gonna be the best team losing to 3 other good teams and they havent played the bills, texans, or the lions and vikings yet
If you are going to be great you have to beat the 3 teams if you don’t beat them your going nowhere❤😊
@@Wicked_RotF30they averaged 18 PPG and 180 passing yards per game under fields. Literally Kenny Pickett numbers. The fact that you blame the defense for the 2 losses is ridiculously laughable when the defense straight up carried them during those 6 games. They lost both games where their opponent scored more than 13 points. They have wins in that stretch where they scored 13 and 18 points.
I think we’re starting fields vs the bengals so are players are healthy for the playoffs
I love what Cam Newton said on First Take! Steelers should develop Fields and allow him to be the guy! He can do everything the top QBs can do and more. Develop him and allow him to lead the franchise to a new dynasty!!!
Squirrels JF will never start in the NFL after this year unless someone gets hurt. Nobody will build their franchise around a guy who doesn;t have it between the ears and is hurt often.
They didn't bench Justin Fields!! He was the designated backup in training camp. He was playing because Wilson was injured. It's kind of like if back in the day Ben Roethlisberger was injured in camp and missed the first few games. So Mason Rudolph started those games until Ben could play. You wouldn't say Rudolph was benched for Roethlisberger! The starter came back when he got healthy.
Yeah but Russ isn’t Big Ben and fields is better than Rudolph
Ita nothing like that at all. Ben was a franchise QB and already proven, Russell and fields were both on prove it deals essentially. So they did indeed bench Fields im not saying they wrongfully benched him but they did bench him.
NO they benched him no doubt. This isn;t a debate. He was the starter and was removed and put on the bench. He didn't play well enough or hed be the starter. it easy
@PatriotWatchUSA Russ is kinda playing himself to the bench rn. His saving grace is the shitty play from the whole team
Yes I agree but Wilson ain't no Big Ben☹️
Bro love your videos this is so true thanks for telling us Steelers fans appreciate it
If they start fields you have to start Warren with him
@steel43167 boy you talking 🗣💯
We honestly just need more talent on offense. I believe Roman Wilson and Calvin Austin will be great 3rd and 4th options we need a true number 1 or someone thats just as good as GP but a much better route runner maybe( Emeka). We also need another RB to pair with Warren. I would draft another LT and force a camp battle with Jones at that position since i suppose Troy will be the starter at RT next season.
Smith play calling changed with Wilson because of the many many things he’s unable to do.. he’s limiting the whole team.. we had George running the whole route tree early none of that now
It’s Justin that is limiting, not Russell. He can’t read defenses out go through progressions, he has one option and if it isn’t there he runs. What are you even talking about?
@ he doesn’t throw stop routes doesn’t throw hitches doesn’t throw deep comebacks… you know so much but didn’t notice all those routes have disappeared from the playbook yall just want to blame the OC… all the experts wanted fields Tomlin was the only one that wanted Russ and he has been bad against every decent defense he played only was good against the 3 worst defenses in the league.. you never heard fields get boos at home even he was under center.. never averaged 4 3 and outs game either.. because Russ is so limited he’s easy to play against.. id special teams or defense ain’t setting him up he’s worthless
@ 12 days ago you weren’t saying all this BS. You really think the routes have become more limited under a Super Bowl winning vet than a has done absolutely nothing 4th year trash qb who was not even allowed to change plays at the line because he can’t read defenses? That’s beyond stupid bro. I also ain’t blaming the OC, Russ has not been good last 3. But saying it’s all on him is a joke. Two injury riddled games with no GP. All three games our defense got killed for over 400 yards. The O line has been dog walked. Justin fields wins none of those games by the way
@ I definitely was saying it I’ve been saying it since the jets game.. and how he almost lost the giants game for us but TJ saved him… because I’m not stupid I know what to look for you think some bum throwing up prayers is going to be effective against good teams.. dude has been a bum since Seattle he left because he wanted to learn how to play the position and they didn’t think he was capable of playing that way.. so he went to Denver with the guy responsible for a rod last few years and was trash got with Payton and was trash because he can’t play on time from the pocket like a real qb.. he has never been the guy ever since they tried to run through him he never got anywhere.. do you know his last playoff victory? They didn’t win that Super Bowl because of him he rode the coat tails of a great team.. you really are a simp.. blame everybody except the person that’s supposed to make it all work.. bro has one of the highest sack rates with lowest pressure rates and yall blame the Oline.. the offense is worst since he took over and yall blame the oc.. Bryce young took it to the chiefs with less than Russ and yall blame the skill group.. there’s a nice break down on Reddit you should go look at it because you sound like a blind fan that doesn’t know what he’s talking about.. Russ is a bum.. we were better off leytingg he fields develop.. you know the qb that has gotten better every single year besides disastrous coaching that you can see is once again ruining a top tier talent..
@ and it would be stupid to play fields now Tomlin ended our season with the switch.. and like I said Smith and the other offensive specialist knew it wasn’t the right switch..
After what occurred during preseason, I'm pretty confident that Omar learned some lessons from that experience. Next off-season, Kahn gets it right.
You are correct he isn't the problem. The problem is playing 3 elite teams in 11 days without a fully healthy team. Even with Austin (who I'm not a fan of) we can cause a problem for any team with Tomlin and Russ. We almost beat Buffalo with Mason last year, with Canada's playbook. We just have to hope that Tomlin and players don't actually listen to what the "fans" are saying which I am optimistic that they don't.
You are 100% correct
It's good to here from you because you understand whats going on and the losses were not on Fields. When Fields played against the Broncos he beat Russell and his defense gave the game away.
We need juice !!! He’s the playmaker we need I say start him against cincy he has 11 days to prepare and see he got!! In 2 weeks we don’t have a signed qb ! Don’t let this guy walk
Hahaha playmaker? He threw for 120 yards a game ahahahahha Russ is about to get 3 years 140 million. Deal with it . Tomlin needs a qb not a fuckin rb
@ 140 mil for a 37 yr old qb that can’t beat a good team???? Are u kidding me I won’t turn my tv on next yr
As a bears fan I can tell you the deep ball is one of underrated things about Justin. He throws a great deep ball. It doesn’t float so he is able to hit receivers in stride. Saw it plenty of times with DJ Moore. Unfortunately, since the bears were in the same boat with Pittsburgh with wide receivers , a lot of fields best throws were dropped. Like I’m talking right in the receivers bread basket dropped. Also we had a lot of those plays called back due to bs penalties. Fields can play man, I’ve seen this dude put a team on his back plenty of times, unfortunately the effort that he gives on the field isn’t reciprocated by the folks at the top. They didn’t give him shit in Chicago, then in Caleb’s first year he has arguably 3 number one WRs and a pro RB. Then he goes to Pittsburgh and gets benched after a 4-2 start lol
It’s Arthur smith play calling for the lack of production on the offense because the Steelers are staying with their old ways of things and thinking different results. The offense is not doing its job of putting up points and staying on the field.
I’m on this. I don’t see Fields is making those chunk rainbow throws to get them out of a jam. Russ takes too many sacks but Fields is worse at it, can’t really read defenses well either. As a Seahawks fan I’ve seen the decline, but he’s still a step up. The playcalling has been pretty rough, watching them run a predicable run play into an obvious failure with no audibles was rough during the rematch of the Ravens.
I agree. The offense looks the same every game just about it’s like you already know what they are about to do before they do it so just imagine how much of an advantage that gives the defense. It’s better than Matt Canada but not by much
@@jkink8049 it’s a bit confusing tbh. Arthur didn’t take advantage of his biggest weapons in Atlanta, did he want to get fired and tank for picks? He doesn’t need to do that now. I don’t want another Seahawks Russ ego coming out, but the dude is talented enough to make some changes at the line
You don't have the personnel to do that. You spend your money on defense. This isn;t magic
@@tangodelta7809you couldn't be any more wrong
Idk man i usually agree but i think they need to play Russ. You're forgetting how animic it was when JF was playing. We're going against Burrow. We need points. We.need Russ man. I think the extra rest will help too. He's taken a lot of hits lately.
Hey Bro (Off-Season Productions) , I concur.
I think.....a major reason QB2 Justin Fields did not become the starter and continue playing is the Conditional trade pick with Chicago Bears, just before the summer training camp began in July of this year.
The Steelers FO did not want to give up a 4th Rounder instead, Fields became the backup for the next 12 weeks.
It would be interesting, to see, what type of season, the Steelers would have had if, they kept Justin Fields as the starter each of the last 12 weeks and gave a 4th Rounder to the Bears in next year's Draft. 🤔😑
So the Steelers aren't using JF because they don't want to give up a 4th round pick for a starting franchise QBL Maybe the dumbest thing I've herd in 2024. I mean like SUPER stupid
I think the Steelers limited Fields play because they want to only give the Bears a 6th round pick. If Fields plays more they have to give up a 4th round pick. Fields is the franchise guy for the next 15+ years and will win Super Bowls for the Steelers. I believe Fields will go down as better than terry bradshaw.
You better stop smoking that crack.
Yea I never wanted him benched from the beginning. Why bench someone 4-2 who’s 2 losses weren’t really the blame. Plus with this horrible o-line, fields can take off and get 70 yards a game with his legs if the line is just collapsing every play…. Russ can’t.
And I agree, people kept talking about the “deep ball” but fields can throw it, he just didn’t have the green light and confidence to do it outside of when it was asked
Kinda hard when JF has been hurt for the last several weeks. Actually he's hurt all the time
@ he wasn’t hurt weeks 1-6 or when they used him for the last snap of a game twice post week 10. I doubt he’s actually hurt to the point where he can’t play. Tomlin prolly just sat him to be safe.
Same with Pickens, he said he didn’t wanna miss any games and he wanted to play but he was sat by tomlin 🤷🏾♂️
@@kinnyboy lol OK
@@PatriotWatchUSA The man wasn’t available for 2 out of the 17 games this year (he’s available for the bengals game) in which he probably wasn’t going to get any snaps anyway and now he’s “hurt all the time”? 😂 crazy. Y’all internet Steelers fans really just make up narratives and roll with it
@@kinnyboy Not a Steeler fan and he is hurt and misses games each and every year he's been in the NFL. For a QB that would be considered all the time.
Yes I agree ❤😊😊
This kid can be special if he can play relaxed. That’s hard to do when you feel like your job is on the line. Furthermore, Justin was the rock while Author Smith was developing the offense. Right when they fired 30+ against the Raiders and the offense was clicking they put Russ in to take the easy glory.
Short hook vs cinnci. Definitely in playoffs
They didn't bench Justin, Russell was the starter but injured himself, so stop with the bullshit lies!
George Pickens isn’t creating separation because he’s getting double teamed every game. He barely needs it anyway because he almost always wins 1 on 1s
Correct but GP needs to lock in a work on his routes more this season too.
I was ok with coach tomlin switching to Russ for a couple of reasons but I still believe Fields is our future. I'm even ok with the Steelers continuing with Russ now but Fields needs to be the guy moving forward. I think Smith at first wasn't entirely sure how to use Fields but after having an offense with Russ, I can see smith doing a much better job with Fields. I still have expectations this season but if we keep Fields or Russ (and we should), then this year for Smith and Fields is like a prototype season
They never benched Russ.
But then again he could prove that the Steelers do not have their starting quarterback on the roster for next year
I think its Arthur Smith, his playcalling has been horrendous early in games. I really dont think Fields would of done good against Philly, KC, and Ravens twice…
Only next season can save us. Still need a lot of help. Need another WR. Another safety, another corner, and another d-lineman.
Save fields for next season. Nothing can save this season. Don't matter who's in. They aren't beating bills, Ravens, or kc in the playoffs. I can see them beating the Bengals if they make it and or the Texans, but that's it.
Are defense CARRIES you know it’s bad when are best player on offense is probably Chris Boswell 😅
None of these Steeler topic’s that people are bring up will make any difference as long as this coaching staff remains in Pittsburgh, it’s all just hot air.
Justin is a beast. But tomlin will stick with wilson. He loves him for the seahawks days 😅
We should stick with Russ, fields is too scared to throw the ball more than 10 yards, if we want to have a chance to win a playoff game we stick with Russ
They benched Fields for losing to the Colts and Cowboys, and for not showing upside. Could he power a shootout if needed? Russ won shootouts like the Bengals(first) game, and he lost to Lamar, Hurts, and Mahommes. Russ still gives the best chance for playoff wins. They just need everyone to play with better effort and discipline. All 11 guys every play.
The Ravens figured Russ out: all three pointers and layups. Now every team is defending Russ the same way, and he isn't adjusting. The Steelers scored ten points against the Chiefs, at home. Whether the defense is playing well or not has no bearing on Russ' inability to score points. Burrow is proving this. The Bengals may lose, but Burrow is still putting up points to help his team. Where's Russ in this?
Idk about this Justin Fields is ok but he’s about to be 26 and when you compare him to the other qbs we have had the last 5 years he has the same problem mason Mitch Kenny and duck had to where he’s not decisive enough with the ball like how Russ and Ben are tbh we are better off resigning Russ and taking a shot on Jaxson dart or drew allar in the 2nd or 3rd of the draft
Your actually the only smart person in this comment section. These idiots really want a qb who throws 130 yards a game and a passing TDS once every other game lmao there idiots
Allow Russ to mentor Fields. Fields is the long term franchise QB of the Steelers who will be at the top of the elite QBs in the NFL. Give him. The opportunity to grow with the franchise. Draft better defense and sign T Higgins and Rico Dowdle in offseason.
Fields will never be anyone's franchise QB
Not a fan of Fields but Wilson should have been benched long ago.
They did not bench him he was QB2
Pittsburgh needs to rebuild that team! It doesn't matter who the quarterback is they are going nowhere fast!
Pittsburgh honestly doesn’t deserve Justin fields after they pulled that stunt. Screw the fanbase. Screw the coaches. Screw the franchise. Time for him to move on.
Lol what? For having him be the 2nd qb to a literal future hall of famer who has won a superbowl? Who clearly improved the offense when he stepped in? I'm so glad people like you aren't involved in GM decisions.
Move on? Nobody wanted him last year but they going to want him now? Wait what?
@@deaj8450 last 3 games when he finally played someone decent.
10 sacks, 3 fumbles, 3 tds, 2 ints, 555 yards. Expected steady digression every game. And he might play well against cincy this week because their defense is terrible but it’ll be a predictable first round loss once again. Come back in a few weeks! Enjoy!
@colinscholl9495 oh I agree we are losing in the first round, but Justin Fields isn't changing that and it's a joke to suggest he would imo. I never even suggested we were gonna win in playoffs, what gave you that impression?
@@deaj8450 they were 3-0 against playoff teams with Justin fields and 0-3 with Russ. Do the math bud. But again, enjoy your loss.
I believe Russel is the better QB at this moment.Steelers have many other problems outside of who’s playing QB.
Nobody said Fields doesn't have a deep ball, I don't know why people claim this. Sounds like a strawman argument to me. Deep balls are one of the main things he's actually good at. Fields struggles in the short to intermediate passing game AKA the bread and butter of every capable modern NFL offense. Not to mention he botches at least one snap per game.
He sucks so what difference does it make?
@@PatriotWatchUSA Just telling the guy his evaluation is bad

@TBGames23BM they still have a chance to get hot at the right time. Other trams could also struggle late, pr come our flat after resting their starters in week 18. The important thing is to remember the ream did better than many expected them too, which is a huge win in and of itself. Fornwhat was supposed to be a rebuilding year they've performed really well.
@off-seasonproductions4715 the problem in those 3 games was more the defense than the offense. Fromnholding teams ton under 14 points a game to giving up an average of 30 points a game in those 3. Really, all 5 games they've lost this season are probably more on the highest paid defense than the offense. Would love to see a video detailing the defensive issues over the last 3 weeks (4 if you include that Bengals game).
@@off-seasonproductions4715If you honestly think Justin would have saved any of those last 3 games you are out of your mind.

Arthur Smith is weird, seems he thinks your best targets are only effective as decoys.
On another note, you’re saying the Colts game was his best game he couldn’t manufacture any points until the third quarter. Explain how that’s his best game? You’re talking about garbage time stats?

This heartbreaking collapse is not from the QB position.. the young offensive line is not protecting and the defense completely fell apart due to injuries bad coaching… really disappointing Smith play calling.
Russ has been holding the ball for over 3 seconds.
@ Steelers have an abysmal receiver room ..not Wilson’s fault. Front office needed to add a top tier WR to the room before the deadline they did not …Arthur Smith’s offense has not been creative enough to adjust to the positions deficits.

If You Think Field's Showed He can Elevate this Offense Higher than Russ has because You are Unhappy with Losing then I am Questioning People Understanding of the Game. Field's had The Easiest Part of this Schedule and didn't score over 20 points. Don't go and add Boz's Field Goals or Defense Scoring. He also showed that He Also makes Crazy Mistakes like "Fumbles" and "Missnaps" . I think People Miss he was in Chicago for 3 Years Prior.. Show me how he elevated his team. He Won 4 Games in Chicago too his last season. Just 4. Comparing Russ Vs Ravens Eagles and Chiefs is NOT Comparable to ANY of those 6 Teams Field's Played Against. So What are People talking about.. 😂😂😂 Justin Always Needed time behind a QB like Russ. Remember Also This is Russ's 7 game after a year. Somehow that and a oline missing assignments is going to make Field's Better. You Know Defenses can Just Let Field's Run and Not Throw which limits HIM ONLY to Stats and The Team Loses. He's a Dynamic Runner Who Hasn't Shown He can Elevate the Team around him to come back. Until Then You're Reaching.

I’m just gonna come right out and say it….Steelers fans have an insane QB bias.
They fall in love with ONE QB and immediately act like every other QB on roster is worse than Hitler himself.
Justin Fields is more or less Mitch Trubisky to Steelers fans…albeit Fields is a helluva lot better than Trubisky…our fans hate him just as much(maybe more) than they hated Trubisky.
Russell Wilson is more or less Kenny Pickett…a guy who can go out and play awful football for more or less the entire game and immediately have the majority of our fanbase white-knighting in his defense…it’s fucking pathetic.
I hope we cut ties with Russ after this season and roll with Fields for a year or two…preferably till 2026 or 2027 when we hopefully draft the future of our franchise at QB.
@@joshuadaniel4443 cool, my point is Steelers fans are treating Justin Fields the same way they treated Mitchell Trubisky…like garbage. Meanwhile, the other QBs who are doing/did just as poorly (Russ and Pickett) get treated as if they can do no wrong and have a million excuses made up for them by Steelers fans.
I swear I see Justin Fields get crucified by our fanbase everytime he’d make a simple mistake…but when Russ makes the same mistakes (or even WORSE mistakes) they’re always quick to dismiss them as not being Russ’s fault…it’s ridiculous how biased our fans can be.
Although you’re spot on, we wouldn’t be having this conversation if the O-Line was even above average. Russ can still cook for another couple years, then Justin can step in as franchise QB…until our O-Line improves, neither QB makes any difference whatsoever 🤷🏻♂️
No more of Russ cooking anything the food is salty 😤
Russ is burning all the meals. He's getting the Steelers blown out because he can't score. He also isn't sustaining drives. There have been a lot of 3-and-outs lately. And the offense still starts slow. Now that teams are taking away his underthrown 50/50 moon ball, he doesn't seem to be able to do much else.
IF JF is not a franchise QB by now he will never be.
@@cr2lives everything you just said includes partial blame placed on the O-Line…it’s not all Russ or Justin’s fault as far as how the offense rolls. Improve the O-Line and we’ll see higher scoring for sure
@@PatriotWatchUSA I disagree, JF has the skill set to be a franchise QB within an established system and a solid O-Line…things he’s never had, including now. The Steelers system is raw, the O-Line is inexperienced and mistake-prone
Oline is trash defense is injured. Thats our problem. Could use another receiver or we could actually use Mike Williams. Fields isn't going to make the difference
Russ too old and slow!He ain’t half of what he used to be😂😂😂
When are you bird brain fans going to realize he was never the starter😂😂
He can save them...Great, so he can coach!!?? Bye, bye Mikey!!!
Give it up man. Fields gave them very little scoring, and he’s not healthy.
low scoring based on their playbook and WINS dont leave that part out.
Tomlinson will never win with Wilson 2:59
Well dude the stats speak for itself. In the amount both teams played Russell doubled Fields passing yards and I think tripled his touchdowns. That shows that Russell is better but honestly it really doesn't matter who was quarterback because that offensive line is the worst in the NFL and has been the worst for many many many many many years years
Fields was benched because our D was giving up 16 points a game , and He couldn't score. The man threw 5 tds in 6 games, and only 1 to a wr. Please wake up. The wrs where giving up because of it. How easily you people forget. How about how he fumbled in every game , but one. 😂
YEP. People forget easily
Fields averages less than 185 yards a game and only one multiple touchdown game out of 6… Wilson is the superior choice
Russ managed ten points against the Chiefs at home. He's averaged about thirteen points per game in the last three games.
@@cr2lives Against the ebst teams in the league. You were out classed. Had nothing to do with Wilson. You spend 2/3 your cap on defense. What do you expect?
@@PatriotWatchUSA That's no excuse for lack of points. Try again.
Justin Fields isn't a starting NFL QB...When he learns how to read defense and put touch on the ball when needed then he'll be okay, but how many years has he had to hire a QB Guru to learn in the off-season to get better..? Playing video games and chasing women and hanging out shows in his game...He is a back up QB...If you take away his ability to run then he wouldn't even be in the NFL..
😂😂 how can you do football videos with that lack of common sense
Does nobody remember how slow the offense looked? With Russ we start slow but at least when we get hot we get HOT
Nope. He can’t.
We saw this movie too! 2024🤦♂️We are losing rd 1 regardless. If Fields was the answer why hasn't he been starting? Nope. We need a new coach, and new QB room. Again🤦♂️
Because Russ threw the ball better….
Bro this so ridiculous Justin havin 5 passing tds 6 fumbles losses from cowboys and colts.compared to a russ havin 15 tds w no George pickens vs 2 of the best teams in football .and a stubborn gp vs the best team in football that kissed mahomes ass after the game.russ battle tested got to the big dance twice outside Steelers we kno who more qualified stop da cap
That's a weak picky argument
& it's not the truth either cause he only lost 1 fumble & has 1 pic so wtf are you watching?
@@AD-eh3xn one fumble man shut up u ain't watching the games since preseason this dude done had 10 potential fumbles fell back on lik 3 of them they still happen.this fool lost a regular season game in a shotgun formation looking the other way when the ball got snapped.so they stop putting him in shotgun formations and jus had him under center.many ppl like u watch football and don't even know what ur watching.im losing brain cells even explaining this to some one like u
@@AD-eh3xnThis user is all over every Steelers YT channel glazing Russ and hating on Fields. They've been doing so all season.
Russ has been playing poorly since they beat the Ravens at home. Nobody is going to admit this. The Ravens took away the moon ball and now it appears that Russ is struggling to adjust. That's why the Steelers are getting blown out by good teams.
@cr2lives all we gotta do is build the offense around Fields & let him loose!! I know he can pass cause he did it again LAC & Indy. I was one to get on other fans for talking bout Mike T cause he's from my area 757 but he seems to be getting worse every season. He's too arrogant & he keeps tryna run this stone age offense when he cam go with Fields & Warren, RPO!! I also would like if we can acquire Garrett Wilson 💯
For nothing actually
You guys are ridiculous
Russ got the stealers fans fighting 😂😂😂 I luv it, fields is a younger Russ dummies would u take a young Russ are an old Russ? This is your option right now but u guys are too dumb to realize it.
You thinking Fields is a young Russ is hilarious. Talk about dumb
Justin fields is trash and can’t throw
Fields is trash. Wilson is trash. Tomlin is Trash. Kenny Pickett outperformed all today lol
If Russ declines another 50% he and every QB in America is better than Justin
Hey OSP, Justin throws to straight to flat. You could see it in game, he all legs no arm 😢
