So who wants to chomp on some crow with me, I thought he was a bust, but he just dominated tonight, so much speed, he was amazing.

My apologies Bud, you are a Steeler stud!
 
Bud has really stepped up starting with last season his play has hit that Elite level that we drafted him for.
 
As long as he's unblocked, he is usually there to make the play. Good game for him tonight, especially the forced INT.
 
He was a beast. Hines57 was right.
 
while I am not ready to anoit him king just yet, he had a really nice game tonight. Granted, rook LT in front of him but the dude has been flashing htis ability for a while. We drafted him knowing he was an athletic freak but needed polish. Looks like the turtle wax has stuck.
 
Dupree has always had ability. Now it looks like he's finally playing smart. This Bud's for you.
 
He is going to make a **** ton of money next year
 
Too bad this will be his last year as a Steeler. Watt will get signed this offseason and MAYBE JuJu, if they can find the cap space with the cap going down.

Alex Highsmith made himself noticed tonight. You can't sign everyone, and the key is always to have a potential replacement ready. Will be watching his development.

As did Ola. He missed a couple sure sacks if he didn't overpursue but the physical gifts and the want-to are definitely there.
 
Worth every penny and then some. Damn shame they didn't lock him down long term. STUD Dupree is a force out there on the field.
 
Bud was all over the field making plays. With teams giving a lot of attention to TJ he's gonna have a BIG year.
 
It took a while but Bud has arrived last couple years. He was flying around like a bullet out there. The addition of Watt does open things up for him. We'll see as the season goes on who stands out. Man, we have a few potentially good players sitting on the sidelines.
 
It's rare and very welcome when a linebacker OTHER than Watt is the guy giving the opposing team fits.

If Bud continues to make plays, teams will have to focus on BOTH ends and that aint easy. Now if Bush could just step it up a notch they'd be a full on defensive nightmare for anyone who faces them.

Shout out to the "drive sustaining phantom PI call" on Haden.
 
After looking like a zombie his first years, he realized he's playing for money now. Will he keep this up after he signs with the Steelers or someplace else?
 
Dupree played very good, I hope the remaining 15 teams don't bother to block him on half the plays.

If he had shown anything in his first 4 seasons, they'd have locked him up, he'll get paid by someone, just not us.

Always thought Dupree had the ability, but he was out of control , taking poor angles, etc.

I couldn’t help but think about how Andy Russell commented that Chuck Noll said he hated his game and was going to make him a better player in the same fashion

I hope Dupree can continue on.

My fear is that he is benefitting, greatly, like Woodley did when Deebo was on the other side getting doubled.

15 games plus POs to figure it out.

Bud almost got that sack early too. Good night for both UK stars.
