Fitzpatrick has made Steelers D Great Again

Great? We have some things to prove before we're great.
 
These Minkah Fitzpatrick memes on twitter are hilarious....

Hold on here though, Trog. I have it on very good authority that picks in the top-12 NEVER bust. Indeed, they inevitably wind up having extremely good/multiple Pro-Bowl careers. Just ask Solomon Thomas, John Ross, Mike Williams, Leonard Floyd, Eli Apple, Vernon Heargraves, Donta Fowler, Kevin White, Trae Waynes, Danny Shelton, Blake Bortles, Sammy Watkins, Justin Gilbert, Dion Jordan, Barkevious Mingo, Jonathan Cooper, Tavon Austin, Dee Milliner, Chance Warmack, D.J. Hayden, Trent Richardson, Justin Blackmon, Morris Claiborne, Ryan Tannehill, or ... Mark Barron.

God, I cringe at the thought of the Steelers getting a superior safety, an awesome football player, a guy who reads and intercepts like nobody since Polomalu, but in the process losing the next Justin Gilbert or Barkevious Mingo.

You forgot that we could also pick a Ryan Leaf or Jamarcus Russell. Oh boy, Championship!!!
 
Btw Sean Davis is two weeks from being eligible to return off IR. If he's good to go, he'll be an improvement over Kam Kelly in dime. He's better in coverage than Edmunds/Hilton, so maybe they'll move Edmunds inside to dime backer and pair Davis & Fitz in deep zones. I know Butler likes that three safety alignment.

Coach is gonna poke you w/ a sharp pin...

Wow that passer rating improvement is stellar.
 
Yep fitz is making everyone better the qb has to hold on to ball just a little longer to figure out where fitz is and that little bit longer means the world to Dupree and watt... this d seems to be jelling with fitz in there turnovers is one of most critical stats you have to avoid them and you gotta creat them we all know the defense has the talent but fitz has been the glue that’s bringing it together and holding it. been awhile since we’ve had his kinda talent in our secondary. Go steeeelerrrrsssssss
 
I've said it before, the Steelers will be getting their check books out in big fashion in 2, 3 and 4 years as they must pay Watt, Minkah and Bush. They are the core of this defense for the next 8+ years.

It’s not like they haven’t paid guys before...

We allow 336 yards a game and 22 points against, that is far from great
