And we think you under rating the Browns, and homer over rating the Steelers is equally as comical. I already pointed out- some of those mainstream media outlets have guys posting opinions from a POV that's probably 10X more knowledgeable than yours- but you're so damn sure yours is right. Already said it- you're coming from a POV of "what was". The rest of the media is coming from a POV of "What is". Too bad you can't understand that.

He has not bothered to comment on my AFCN position ranking thread maybe because he knows it is not full of sychophancy for the Squibs. Or maybe he hasn't bothered to read because it contains, you know...substantive football material, and God forbid he does not want to be exposed to any of that. On the other hand he should know that on there, the Steelers fair better than either the Ravens or Bengals. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I never said the Steelers were favored anywhere. If you go on Vegas odds the Steelers are right behind the browns. What I have said is the future success of the browns is overblown. It goes off nothing but past production of players that weren’t on the team last year. Obj already isn’t at ota’s. The only major subtraction for the Steelers has been Antonio brown and he is a cancer, guess what also not at OTAs for his new team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Gipper Posted June 3, 2019 Author Report Share Posted June 3, 2019 1 hour ago, Vagitron said: I never said the Steelers were favored anywhere. I think you did actually, but we won't concern ourselves with that. If you go on Vegas odds the Steelers are right behind the browns. Are they? If that is the case then post what those are, I have not seen them and would be curious to do so. What I have said is the future success of the browns is overblown. Maybe...that is just your opinion. Maybe it will be proven to be underblown. It goes off nothing but past production of players that weren’t on the team last year. Oh...that is just a fairly minor part of it. A much bigger part is the expected improvement of Baker Mayfield...plus the same for the likes of Nick Chubb, Jarvis Landry, Antonio Callaway, David Njoku, the continued contributions of Duke Johnson, Greg Robinson, Bitonio and others on the OL. plus the continued development of Garrett, Ogunjobi, Genard Avery, Denzel Ward, Carrie/Mitchell/Randall. In fact, there are really only 3 new starters that would add to this team that were not here last year: OBJ, Sheldon Richardson, and Olivier Vernon. Also, Morgan Burnett may have some spot starting duties. 18- 19 of the expected starters were on this team last year (of which at least 5 were rookies last year going into their second year, and other 3-4 more are going into their 3rd year. Are those 3 new additions expected to help greatly? Absolutely, that is why they were brought in...but even if they weren't here, there would be a lot of expected improvement. Obj already isn’t at ota’s. I think he was in today. That ain't no big thing. He will not have forgotten how to catch footballs. The only major subtraction for the Steelers has been Antonio brown and he is a cancer, Losing Munchak is another major subtraction...and you did lose Bell, but yes, he did not play last year (and the Steelers suffered for it...as they will likely suffer without Brown. He may have been a "cancer" to the FO but he also had 104 catches for about 1300 yards and 15 TDs....and don't tell us that Sidney Moncrief and Washington are going to make up for that loss. guess what also not at OTAs for his new team. Bart Starr....because he just died? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You have one dlineman on your team that is other worldly and that’s Garrett. Pouncy owns ogunjobi and Richardson is just okay. I can share some gifs of ogunjobi getting pancaked by pouncy if you’d like and Ben is touched less by pressure than Tom Brady (statistical fact). Ben also had more attempts than any other qb in the league, threw for the most yardage too. as far as munchak is concerned our coaches learned under him and all the players on the line are veterans, as you said yourself obj isn’t just going to forget how to catch. Our offensive line aren’t going to forget how to hand fight, get leverage or read the defense. I can’t wait for the Steelers to come out killing it so you can be wrong yet again.
