If Ebron says ONE more ******* thing...

Meh I am fine with Ebron saying he is happy with the loss in that context... it wasn’t out of line

All of the wrs need to learn to focus better... this is systematic and absolutely on the OC... they are overemphasizing YAC . They don’t need to turn every 5 yard pas into a td...
 
I don't think I've disliked a Steeler this much since the dog killing piece of **** was on the team.

And now that "dog killing piece of ****" is featured on Fox's Pregame Show!
 
Hey he wasn't hired for his social media skills....What was he hired for?

Overall, Ebron finished the 2019 season with 31 receptions for 375 receiving yards and three receiving touchdowns.[57]

Not that I'm blaming the loss entirely on him but i sure wish I could make 12 million for catching a ball 31 times and taking it 371 yards.

Note to Steelers...beware of players who were top notch picks for their position but just couldn't cut it. As Andy Griffith told Jim Lindsay: "Act like you got some smarts".
 
Bench his ***. Seriously. Until he gets on the jugs machine night & day and starts catching passes again, he's just about useless.

And WTF happened to Old McDonald? I'm not slighting him so much as I'm slighting our coaching staff. If you see that Ebron has been absolute dogshit for two games now, why not get Vance some opportunities?

McDonald was returning kickoffs and punts early in the game, according to the stupid play-by-play announcer.
 
He creates a schematic problem. If he is in the game they only pass. If he is out they will only run. Vance Macdonald isn't as big a pass catch threat but he is good enough. Ebron is a problem.
 
Between his mouth and Tuitt's tweets last game, none of this is stunning. It is a window into the mindset of the team. They bought into their own hype. Couple that with the retarded play calling and the impotent execution and tonight is what you get.

Tonight? Try the last TWO games. This is what always happens to a team lead by a cheerleader, they start believing they just have to show up. Tomlin is a new generation coach that wants to be their friend. Thst is why he is a “players” coach.

Same **** that got us blown out by Blake Bortles in the playoffs. Chest-thumping, frontrunner bullshit.

Not to mention all the fans who believe a regular season record means anything.

Many were saying that LAST week when the Steelers eeeked out a win against a bunch of back ups and practice squad stiffs.

Ebron on the other hand was whining about the accommodations for the Super Bowl.

And yet still dropped multiple passes this week and last.........................

And here I thought the Ravens game should have relit that fire.
 
"Relighting" isn't going to stop anyone from dropping passes and making blocks.
 
I noticed late in the game this guy wasn't on the field and Vance was getting those snaps back. Ebron is athletic as hell but those drops are horrid.

How much can the Steelers save by cutting him? There are a lot of young UFAs coming up I'd rather have on the team than Ebron and the Steelers don't use the TE enough to justify investing much in the position. He was worth a shot this year, but not sure he's worth it beyond one season.
 
That's the problem with these professionals - they feel the need to use a "humbling' experience as a renewed driving force. This is normally their excuse for not focusing and working on their craft! If I had as many drops as they have had - I would be hitting that jugs machine for hours!!! But, like someone else said - our offence is predicated on the YAC. With a little 2 yard slant, they need to turn and get upfield quickly. So, their attention to the detail of catching the ball first comes second to moving up field - hence the drops!

Nah, Ebron was in there. the tipped ball that ended the game, was going to him.
 
I warned he was a bad apple type upon his signing. It only took the first loss for this guy to show his colors.

Just focus on the game and block better.

Coach, we all knew what we were getting and MANY HERE warned of the after-taste he presented. His catching up until about 3 weeks ago was good enough to put up with his antics, as small as they were. Now add in the recent drops and his antics are amplified to grief for many. I hope O'l McDonald can come out catching and his role is increased with successful catches. Drop EBRON's touches in 1/2 and make him work hard to catch as long as McDonald is catching his.

Weather Coach Tomlin benches anyone or not is yet to be seen so I'm taking a lesser approach of target numbers.



Salute the nation
