Remember a couple weeks ago where every sportscaster in America was publicly weeping on every forum possible about Eli being benched. They'll all say this is a necessary move and football is just business. Harrison wanted to be cut. He was tired of not getting PT. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Small Town Values Posted December 24, 2017 Share Posted December 24, 2017 Any chance he makes the hall? Particularly after TD’s recent inclusion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sugashane Posted December 24, 2017 Share Posted December 24, 2017 Does this seem like a lack of respect or does anyone think he wants this to be his final year, but not on the sideline? I could understand if this was a mutual move so he could go to a playoff team where his role would be greater, but otherwise I wouldn't expect the Steelers to just drop him this late in the year.

Legit contenders are often largely due to elite QBs (at least if they are consistently contenders, not one year wonders), they can have holes too. Sometimes that is in the pass rush department. As Chiefer said, Chiefs may need help, they are tied for the 6th fewest sacks in the NFL right now. NE and DAL are middle of the pack and only has 6 more sacks, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sure, he's 39 and has lost a step in coverage, but then why sign him in the first place? I realize with the emergence of Watt, he's become more expendable, but I would've liked to see him as a special weapon to be deployed come playoff time. Give the opposing QB (& LT) something to think about. But I guess they didn't value him anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TecmoSuperJoe Posted December 24, 2017 Share Posted December 24, 2017 Don't see him as HOF player even though had a few HOF type seasons. I think hanging around the last few years has harmed him in that regard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was an aging player who clearly lost a step in the coaches eye since he was cut and received zero playing time. It's a business decision and since he's just a taking up a roster spot along with he doesn't play on special teams or defense and they needed a roster spot he had to go. I'm kind of surprised the steelers didn't cut him earlier in the season considering he was rotting on the bench for most of the year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think Marshawn Lynch will make it for instance, even though his run against the Saints was one of the most impressive runs in NFL history.

3rivers Posted December 24, 2017 Share Posted December 24, 2017 another reason he might not get in is because of his issues with goodell. I wouldn't put anything past goodell and whatever he can do about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
