He says after the catastrophe of the first play, they ran the same play(good old Fich) with a pretty good pick up of 2 yards.

If they get a real OC and a new QB imagine this kids ceiling!
Advice for this rookie...just shut up and work to get better.
You lost, team played like shit, and you’re trolling the Browns...c’mon.
Claypool has a chance to be an impactful leader type, joining Watt, and Fitzpatrick. In this case, I'm for the rookie speaking out. Someone has to do it. With a little polish on his routes, Claypool has a good chance to developing into one of the top 16 WR's in football, in other words, a true #1 WR.
Not sure he slighted Randy by running play 2 the same as was snapped over Ben's head. Just facts. If you call a play and it never gets run because of a bad snap or penalty, often you keep with the same play as an OC.
Browns didnt really kick their ass, as much as the Steelers kicked their own with 5 turnovers.
I agree, no need to be petty about losing a game, but if the Browns players were talking shit the entire game, I can understand the bitter feelings and it only adds to the rivalry going forward. Lets just hope the Steelers can move up in the draft and get one of the top 3 QB's. I think that can be a great future going forward with some of these young WR's.
Yeah, no one kicked ass, the Steelers imploded in the first quarter and then out scored the browns for the remaining three quarters but it wasn’t enough. The implosion was a killer, no excuses, happened at the worst time of the season in the most important game. Ben, Pouncey, Fitchner, Tomlin, it was a group fail. This could’ve happened against any NFL team.
Have to see where things project out, but to get into around the #10 pick, would need to trade 1 first round picks, or a first and 2 second round picks.
I still think that JAX, ATL, CAR, DET, DEN are all in the top 10 and could use a QB. Will be tough to get to Fields or Wilson IMO.
I don't think Fields has top QB skills, but he can run for sure. Wilson appears to be moving up the charts. Either guy won't be there at pick #24. I've never seen a 12-4 team pick that high! You'd have to be upset early in round one vs. a low seed, which we were.
I'm ready for the senior bowl. One player I want to see is Jamie Newman. The tools are there. Newman has those did you see that type of moments that indicate a high NFL ceiling. The other side of the coin is he's a shaky passer and turns it over too often. Newman really not a player you pick for now, rather a guy in round 3 you take if you want to develop a quarterback. A good week and he could move to round two.
I think Trask, who also plays at the senior bowl will be gone before we pick in round two. I for one do not want to see another year of Rudy. The guys is a back up. Pick a QB to replace Ben this year in round one. Next year will likely produce a non-playoff season. An 8-8 to 7-9 type of year won't put us in a spot to draft a top 3 passer either. So if one is in the board worth the pick, you take him now.
The last time the Steelers won a playoff game it was 2016. That is six years ago. We are keeping the Jets and Lions company. The standard remains the standard.
