Matt Canada got the axe, though I think the offense doesn't really improve much because the Steelers are still using the playbook. Hopefully Faulkner has a better idea on play flow and rhythm. Will KP get outplayed by a backup again? It can't get any worse, could it?
Go Steelers.
Looking for positive changes in the offense today. Not expecting a huge change but looking for something the players can build off of and looking for some different play calls and a better game plan.
DO expect to see a lot of Warren today as he's attached to Faulkner and if Faulkner is trying to keep a job as an OC, I'd expect Warren to get a healthy dose with Harris getting some as well.

It looks like it's raining pretty hard there. Not exactly perfect scoring conditions.
Let's see what they can do.
HERE WE GO STEELERS HERE WE GO!!!
already improvement
Muuuuuuuuth!
A play downfield! Over the middle!
Already. Play action down the seam…
Over the middle ……who knew ?
Well, that didn't take long.
Isn't that something

That’s already enough improvement…lol
DJ still running back
DJ runs backwards.... That hasn't changed..
Still throwing short of the sticks on 3rd down.
Pickett on the third down was reading down field and checked down. Again…another improvement.
Opening play was a middle finger Matt Canada

Less dumb than usual.
KP mad about something on that play, maybe Conner ran the wrong routeQuote:

Not a great result because of that DJ screen. However, first play was something we haven’t seen. WR screen wasn’t a terrible idea…just poorly blocked. Third down Pickett was going through progressions downfield and threw to a checkdown. All in all, everything we haven’t seen in a long time.

Watt!!
Good job out of Austin getting up the field and getting as much yardage as he could.
I agree and his momentum was going backwards. I don’t think he necessarily ran backwards on purpose but that physics thing got in the way…Quote:

Pickens involved early. Another good thing…
