Matt Canada no longer the offensive coordinator there in Pittsburgh
. It's the first time since 1941 that the Pittsburgh
Steelers have made a change at their head coach or
coordinator in the middle of the season. So this
is unprecedented territory, Mike Tomlin talking about it,
how, uh, there's this offensive inconsistencies, they
haven't continued to improve and Eddie Faulkner is gonna take
over offensive coordinator duties. Mike Sullivan, uh,
play calling responsibilities for the team and they're gonna be
the only team in the league where the offensive play
caller is neither the offensive coordinator or the head coach
. So it's gonna be an interesting situation there,
Brad, they're at six wins right now. Their
, their total is set at 9.5. Do you
think this change is gonna have that big of an
impact? Uh, yeah, I'm hoping it's gonna
have a major impact for one player, one player
only selfishly. How about requisite Warren, as in
Jalen, Warren? Give him the rock 20 times
per game. The guy's got some of the best
shimmy and shake action of any running back in the
NFL. He's forcing his tack on absurd. 37%
of his attempts this season, the yak up per
attempt is way north and way up there. In
terms of the, uh, top five in the
NFL. That guy deserves to be your war course
and your stallion stallion. So please give the rock
early and often and good things are going to occur
. Really interesting answer there. Read, not at
all. What I asked you curious, can you
get to a 9.5 points? No, no.
And the offense will not improve because Kenny Pickett is
their quarterback, stop trying to fool ourselves on this
situation. It doesn't matter if you bring in the
greatest offensive coordinators of all time combined. This is
not gonna work because Kenny Pickett is just that bad
. Like when you can't throw the football as an
NFL team, it makes you so one dimensional.
And John, I know you can speak on that
, but I can't see the Steelers team going over
that win total to be fair to Brad. Jalen
Warren is an exciting player to watch it like three
weeks since I've really gotten to be able to pick
on Bradley. I just saw the opportunity and jumped
on it. You landed back in the country and
you immediately attacked Brad, I feel at home,
but like you cam I am worried about Kenny Pickett
, maybe the offensive coordinator change does help them out
ultimately, but we know Tommy devito now has more
career path games with three passing touchdowns than Kenny Pickett
. That cannot be a good thing for a first
round quarterback. So maybe it's a scheme changes overall
, maybe they have a great week against the Bengals
defense this week allowing a league high and explosive plays
per game. But overall, I am still very
worried about this offense. I know we got to
keep it moving, but Brad, I will give
you a second to give your thought on that 9.5
win total. Yeah, I'm gonna be firmly under
on it. I mean, we'll see, uh
, the jury is still out on Kenny Pickett.
Uh, you know, can he actually stretch the
field? Can he get Deonte Johnson more involved over
the middle of the field? Uh, he has
had his moments. I mean, they have the
weapons there, especially with the field stretcher and George
Pickens, but it's all about picket to Pickens and
picket to Deonte Johnson and really opening up this offense
vertically because he's having way too many low a,
uh, passes. So hopefully the coaching change will
spark the QB.
