Closet Racists in Shambles: Coach Tomlin’s Contract Extended to 2027

Say what you want about Coach Tomlin, but if you’re upset about this contract, you’re (un)objectively wrong. And, yes, I’m being sarcastic, because I understand how unreasonable I am. However, he’s one of the best coaches in all of sport, and I think these next few years are going to be tremendously successful. Today is a good day to be a fan of the Pittsburgh Steelers. Here We Go!

High Praise For Arthur Smith, Offensive Line During OTAs

Looking at Arthur Smith’s career, both as a coordinator and a head coach, it’s true that his offenses operate at a high level in the trenches with a lot of heavy personnel packages, which likely bodes well for the group we have now on offense, particularly with the additions to the offensive line and the added mobility at the quarterback position.

The Steelers’ 2024 Schedule is Now Set…and It’s Rough

I wrote, earlier this month, about the AFC North and how I saw the division playing out, based solely on the list of opponents that was provided to us earlier this year.

I would argue that EVERY SINGLE PICK they made, besides the Logan Lee pick, should’ve been off the board before we got them. It was a masterclass in patience by Pittsburgh this year.

Getting to Know the Steelers’ Day Two 2024 Draft Picks

Our offensive line has the potential to be one of the best in the world, and we’ve added some SERIOUS speed both on offense and defense. I don’t think I’m overreacting when I say that this team can compete for first place in the AFC North, and maybe even a Super Bowl.

The 2024 NFL draft will begin in Detroit, Michigan tomorrow evening at 7:30 pm eastern time. I don’t know about yinz, but the speculation has gotten a bit stale for me, and I’m super excited to have some clarity on that.

A Quick Look at Duke OL Graham Barton

The Steelers hosted Duke OL Graham Barton and NC State LB Payton Wilson for pre-draft visits today, according to multiple sources. With Barton projected to be the first center off the board in the 2024 NFL Draft, and that being arguably the biggest hole that needs to be filled for the Steelers, I decided to watch some film in lieu of his visit with the team.

We Should Probably Stop Listening to John Frascella

But, this guy, John Frascella, keeps popping up everywhere claiming to have these uber-credible sources, and twisting basic ass, well-known and documented information, and adding his own spin to it trying to boost his own credibility. And, it’s failing. Miserably.
