Notes

Steelers signed Cody White WR to the practice squad.- a former MSU receiver.

Jamal Adams 2 career INTS < TJ Watt 4 career INTS

Diontae Johnson leads all WRs with 21 missed tackles. (since 2019)

Maximum Watt-age: TJ 5 tackles for loss- 2.5 sacks -6 QB hits - - JJ 6 tackles for loss- 2.0 sacks - 5 Q hits

Steelers are the only team with 100 yard rushers in each of their first two games.

Steelers are number two overall in pass rush win rate (Buffalo is number 1) 65%

Juju is the only player that didn't practice today.



Quotes

Per Steeler SZN ( Steeler fan Instagram) "Believe it or not the Steelers defense is currently ranked number #2 in total defense"

Per Nick Farabaugh (Steeler fan Instagram) " Mike Hilton is absolutely balling through two games -only allowing 37.5 completion percentage when targeted- .08 yards of separation allowed per targeted -3 QB hits- 2 sacks"


Antidotes

The best O-line configuration would be Al-Feiler-Pouncey-DD-Chuks OR AL-Big Dot-Pouncey-DD-Chuks OR Al- Big Dot-Pouncey-DD-Feiler ?

JuJu Smith-Schuster missed his second consecutive day of practice this week with a knee injury for the Steelers. But it is not considered serious and it appears he will play this week

Great stats Slash!!

Here's my input on the most talent on the line. I like this one:
Al- Big Dot-Pouncey-DD-Feiler

I like it because it makes Chukes the extra T and that is the most talent you will have on the field before Wiz comes back.

Though the caveats are: Can Big Dot play LG (He never has), and is DD fully healthy? If they can, that line is the most talented. You can't take Feiler off the line. He's a heck of a solid blocker.

What about leaving Big Dot at RG and moving DD to LG? I guess we can say the team was right in their T assessment as both tackles showed well in a limited view mind you...

DD can't play LG. The thought was to draft someone at LG to replace Faneca. It was supposed to be Urbik, but the undrafted Foster got the spot (they were grabbed the same season). DD was brought in strictly for RG, there was never any talk to move him to LG, nor has he ever lined up and played there. I'm not sure if he can do it. I'd say DD and Dot are both question marks at LG.

PS

I'm very happy about Big Dot's ability out of the gate and it would be amazing if he could play LG. I think that is asking a lot for a rookie but DD's health may determine Big Dots destiny for the next week or two. Feiler can not be taken off the line as per Cope and I think he is right in that assessment. We are finding a pretty talented OL again and our OL line coach might be working his little majic plus his experience total aging under Munch. Loving it
