VigilantZombie Posted September 3, 2019 Share Posted September 3, 2019 Might as well add NT to our draft needs. Hargrave is as good as gone after this season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And that isn't saying much either. He would be no more than a #3. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If there was ever a game that we needed him to provide interior pressure it's this one. If he can't get it done (or isn't asked to) he is of no use to us anyway. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would prefer our #2 to be more reliable than Grimble. I am fine with Gemtry as our #3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would expect him to get a good contract from a 4-3 attacking scheme, whoever has the cap space . I guess Indy should be able to afford that now for example, but I wouldn't be shocked if several teams have offers ready for him. He isn't in the suitable scheme here and gets limited playing time, yet people know about he's disruptive Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jebrick Posted September 4, 2019 Share Posted September 4, 2019 https://fivethirtyeight.com/features/who-are-the-favorites-in-the-2019-nfl-season/ For those that like analytics, a prediction for the season. Spoiler alert. They have the Steelers at 9.5 wins ( top in the division) and Big Ben as the most valuable QB in the NFL. How we’re predicting the AFC North race Chance To… Team Starting QB vs. avg Elo Rating Proj. Wins Make Playoffs Win Division Win Super Bowl Pittsburgh B. Roethlisberger +87 1569 9.5 58% 41% 5% Baltimore L. Jackson -40 1527 8.4 41 26 3 Cleveland B. Mayfield +9 1516 8.4 41 25 2 Cincinnati A. Dalton -40 1414 6.2 15 8 <1 Quarterback ratings are relative to the average NFL team’s long-term rolling QB performance and are included in the listed Elo ratings. Simulations are updated as of Sept. 3, 2019. Source: ESPN Rumors of the Steelers’ demise appear to have been greatly exaggerated. Despite a tumultuous offseason that involved officially losing Bell8 and also shipping receiver Antonio Brown to the Raiders, Pittsburgh remains the top-ranked team in the North. Part of that is thanks to Ben Roethlisberger, who checks in as Elo’s No. 1 overall QB, and part of it is because the Steelers have one of the league’s easiest schedules. The Ravens and Browns are neck-and-neck behind them; Elo is skeptical about Baltimore quarterback Lamar Jackson after he posted not-so-great numbers as a rookie, but it thinks his supporting cast is superior to Baker Mayfield’s in Cleveland — despite the Browns’ big offseason (hi, Odell) and general hype level heading into 2019. Meanwhile, the Bengals are a distant No. 4, as QB Andy Dalton has seen better days, and the team is breaking in a first-time head coach (Zac Taylor).

VigilantZombie Posted September 9, 2019 Share Posted September 9, 2019 I am asking this question here because it has nothing to do with week one and I think that he did a fine job in week 1. At what point should we start considering upgrading our left tackle position Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My concern is, I dont see the guy behind him that is the next man up. I feel like Feiler and Chuks are destined for a mix of RT and swing tackle, which is okay but Al isnt exactly a spring chicken Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
