Smith-Schuster's drops have been in difficult moments of games where the Steelers' offense has struggled in 2019. But their timing is what makes them seem to fans like they're happening more often than number one receivers from other teams.

Catch the ******* ball. A few weeks ago Tomlin said something along the lines of if he has to tell a receiver how to catch a ball he has problems. Not a surprise that these WRs are not performing like pros. This was just a peek into Tomlin's mindset - an off script peek. I am convinced that this clown does not know what coaching is all about. "Be Great Today!". Yeah. "Do the catchy thingy, and be great at it! And you O-Line guys do the O-Line thingy and be great at it!". ****.
 
I like JuJu but find his demeanor this year a little off. I get that injuries have an adverse effect on some players. Unfortunately you are a highly paid professional athlete that is being paid handsomely to play in the NFL. Things are expected of you so you better work on the mental, physical and film room study aspects of your game. All of these young guys need improving. Washington had 2 hands on that ball in the endzone and let go with both hands to readjust and then the defender swiped it away. Was it a difficult catch ... somewhat... but not impossible. If your QB hits you in the hands catch the freaking ball.
The Michael Thomas, Julio Jones, Deandre Hopkins of the world make that play 9 out of 10 times. You have to aspire to be that great against other pro competition and get after it. Not everyone is on that level or has the body type to win contested battles easily. Thus if you lack the physical attributes you have to make it up somewhere.
