such a weird season as a Steelers fan. It just kind of feels like a lost season with a washed-up Roethlisberger behind a young OL, and you just know Tomlin will grind out something like 9-8 again ... so you're not bad enough to really get to draft a stud player, but at the same time you're probably the worst team in the division. Don't know, just feels this train is headed nowhere. I just wish they had some kind of succession plan in place when it comes to the QB position. I feel they do have some pieces for the future offensively (Harris, Johnson, Claypool, Freiermuth) and the OL will hopefully grow and learn, but it's all in vain if you have nobody at the most important position in football. Defensively they still miss Stephon Tuitt big time and the secondary has been spotty, but it helps when you have a monster like T.J. Watt who can change a game on his own any given minute.
hope Darrell Taylor is back healthy soon. Like oldschoolcalgary said, you instantly remember that Shazier situation and nobody wants to see things like that. Thankfully the updates from the hospital have been positive.
