Doesn't it seem like there's always something going on or someone disgruntled? Seems like every year there's at least one occasion where some weird things go down in Pittsburgh.
trade them OBJ for an offensive line and a 1st round pick Â
but the need to bring him into every discussion involving a holdout/disgruntled player has reached Eli levels of ridiculousness.
I think the point was being made that Beckham and his WR divaness is nowhere near the insubordinate behavior that Brown has displayed towards the team and coaches.
due to contract disputes/the business side of the game.
I'm more certain the Raiders are toast after demoralizing their locker room by shipping out Mack just one week before the season.
The Leveon Bell thing in Pittsburgh has got to be on the minds of everyone in that organization as they've gotten off to a slow start with a tie and a loss and a lot of drama.

I agree with you to a point here. Brown and OBJ are often compared and here I think it is relevant. OBJ could have called out his coaches at a lot of different points in his career and NEVER did. Or his teammates and never did.
I'm thinking this is it for Tomlin after the year. A lot of people within that org wanted him gone last year (and they were right) this season things are starting to fall to pieces.
Don't agree there. Losing Shazier is huge but they have better talent/depth at DB this year. They will fix the blown coverage issues they had vs KC.
Pass rush will be fine. Watt is an excellent player.
So what was the excuse last year against Jax in the playoffs? Getting torched already this year. Gave up 21 points to the browns in a monsoon who then couldnt score 21 in a dome against one of the worst defenses in the league.
Pitt's defense is not good. Yes the shazier injury sucks, but it is what it is.
In week 1, Taylor completed 33% of his 40 passes and Hyde avg 2.8 YPC. The Steeler offense handed the ball over to CLE 5-6 times. Thats why they lost.
They had several coverage problems vs KC. It doesn't mean the team with the 7th best defense last year fell off the cliff.
They upgraded the DBs and Id bet on Watt having a bigger role this year. Still a lot of talent although Shazier is tough to replace. They don't have anybody to fill that role.
To rank a defense, there’s not much more to say. But hey, their defense sucked against Jacksonville last year and were toyed with against KC. Their best defender is out for the year and their best corner is hurt.
Things are not going well in Pittsburgh right now...
Because they are losing. No one gives two shits about brown’s antics when the Steelers are winning and no one gives two shits about the good ship lolipop here in the jersey swamps because the giants suck balls right now.
It’s all about winning. Literally. Nothing else matters. It’s all noise.
to New England for peanuts. Then wonder why you get your head beat in by them for the next 5 years. Obviously joking but why do teams think its a good idea to trade with New England. Most of the time they take someone elses throw away and turn them into a serviceable/good player.

Agreed. I guarantee you Josh Gordon is going to do great in NE. I have no idea why the Browns would do that. They must not plan on winning the AFC championship any time soon.
Ben has to be thinking of retiring for sure after this year,.

A side note about targets in 2018. Michael Thomas has 30 targets this year with 28 catches. That's nuts.
This is a good team. They'll be right there in the AFC at the end.

Only because there are are like 3 good AFC teams. Pitt has no defense. They will have a hard time winning the division this year.

His antics have been pretty widely reported.
All of the diva's are capable of this.
The fact that he hasn't done so yet is no assurance he won't if we go 0-4 or 0-5.

The difference is, Odell may have good reasons to be pissed off, not that that excuses it. Brown is just being a child.

But hey, they have depth.
Each QB threw it 40 times. They had no problem with the weather. For a short period there was some rain. Most of the game it was no factor.
Cle had a 1 yard scoring drive.
PIT had 6 turnovers.
Thats what happened here. Pit defense wasn't a problem.

Odell has 95 million reasons not to be but so disgruntled.
Giants defense was really, really good in 2016. How did help them in 2017?
BBI. At least we are discussing the same team!!!

I don’t think you’ve been paying attention the past few years. That locker room is a debacle.
