The Squealers ran all day long and we had no answers. Way too many penalties, sloppy play all around. DA doesn't run a tight ship.

lol just @ me bruh. i don’t think qb is the only issue. i’ve complained of playcalling on both sides of the ball. i don’t think our pass rush is the best. not having lattimore is killer and adebo isn’t progressing like we thought. no mt13 or landry for all those games isn’t ideal. but nah, i don’t believe in starting a 35 year old qb over one that is obviously more talented and another one who could at least extend plays with his legs. i don’t find demario davis to be a problem. not even a little.

Talent wise no, we all know Davis is a stud...That said, you have to depend on guys with veteran presence to rally the troops. No one is playing with any fire. Kamara tried a couple of weeks ago to spark the team, but it is more than a locker room talk, it is on the field.

We have zero QBs that are capable, but I don't think it matters who we start. If Winston starts it will be one good game, one bad.

If the leadership, play calling and discipline don't improve, none of this matters

IMO losing guys like Jenkins (retired), Kwon, Marcus W and Ceedy D was a BIG deal. This defense is a mere shell of it’s former self. No chemistry, no fire.

Even special teams has been below avg in 2022.

But as you stated, it starts at the top .

@K Major... Spot on, Ceedy was a pain in the ass, but he brought fire. Even Werner, is a loss. I am beginning to think I am the only one to see there is more than QB issues. Uninspired all the way around.

This is a very good assessment.

My issue is that when Winston played bad, he was a bum and that all most talked about. Now with Dalton not playing any better, it’s the entire organization.

Like many on here, I don’t think the QB of the future is on this roster but this season is toast and there isn’t any upside to starting Dalton over Winston or Hill.

Two TDs in the last two games isnt going to cut it and Dalton is very inaccurate throwing down the field. Seems like his arm has fallen off a cliff.

We all know injuries have decimated this team over the last 2-3 years but this team looks like they have no direction or plan every week.

There is no reason our offense shouldn’t have been able to expose the Steelers secondary today. They have been terrible all year. Defensively, they were lost all day…didn’t have a clue what was coming.

Correct. Winston shouldered the majority of the blame here.
