Go find Coach Lebeau's playbook and bring back Blitzburgh!! At least for a game or two!! That Zone Blitz he developed was amazing and you have the players to do it
great players on defense. Watt, Minka, Hayward. Arguably the best at their position yet such vanilla defense. No schemes just line up and go. Easy to pick apart by good Offense. Can only go so far which wont be far. Tomlin to blame. His hire.
This defense depends on pressure for it to work, and when we don't get pressure, it appears there aren't the correct adjustments made. We need a DC that can scheme up pressure when Watt is getting double team, all game.
What if Flores wanted to leave? Plus Tomlin said Flores was a short term thing. Lastly, wasn’t Flores the coordinator when Buffalo thrashed us in the playoffs last season? It’s OK to be mad about losses, but we can’t try to call for someone job each time a lost happens. Russ turned the ball 2xs. We’re not going to beat elite teams turning the ball over
@@chrisdavis1301Our corners have struggled all season, this is becoming unacceptable, all they’ve said all season was they’re gonna work on their struggles and problems and yet all still linger and continue. It’s sad bc I truly have so much passion for the Steelers to win it all this year more than any other year and idk how to feel now, if we can’t beat the chiefs we may just be pretenders.. honestly I can see it because we’re missing depth in our team, especially WRs room. A superbowl team can’t win with just GP being the only one who makes crazy plays.
Time to change your defensive scheme next year and do something completely different against these teams. Everyone in the league knows what you are going to do and beat you on your defensive scheme.
Communication has been a on going problem for years now and you and Tomlin seem to not have the answers to this problem the same way neither one of you can figure out how to defend the middle of the field or cover the TE crossing the middle of the field.
We have the highest paid defense no way we should’ve looked like that for three straight games… 11 days is just an excuse… why have TJ on the edge that they cheat back on when we have a Preston smith who is bigger for the edge we could’ve moved TJ inside that last game but our defense has no creativity… it’s literally base defense with Elite talent…
Most of the comments are talking about we should blitz more … well … when you blitz … it exposes your secondary because it leaves them in more one on ones … if you guys are saying our corners are slacking then blitzing would expose them more … we are doing the best with the talent we have … to be simple and honest … WE NEED MORE MAN TO MAN COVER CORNERS !!!!
No one expect us to be where we are right now we’re playing good without are number 1 wr Some main defensive players out. It’s gonna be like that when they have capable receivers and no defensive players injured on their team We gotta buckle down and take your business will be all right no worries Steeler United Nation
We’ve been top 5 in every defensive category up until these last 2 games…we were also missing key players during this 2 game struggle, that’s not a coincidence
Softest coach in the league he depends on his main 4 man rush...he needs to mix n match & throw some blitzes in there especially on 3rd down cuz that zone defense aint cutting it on 3rd n long cmon man watch film & learn from it.
This guy is a complete joke of a coach,last 3 games we've been handed our asses on platers!!!He needs to be let go as well as meyers and smith!OH lets not for get Tomlin
Great person Mr. Austin needs, but he cannot coach defense. He’s in over his head another one of Mike Tomlin’s bad hire. We just need to get through the season with him and get a bonfire defensive coordinator.
The defensive scheme will not change with him as DC.A lot of the wins earlier had to do with competition and getting turnovers.Younshould be able to beat teams with or without turnovers especially when the Steelers do not commit many.This 4-3 Tampa Bay 2.0 hybrid or whatever it is I do not like.A lot of people don’t but it is what the coaches who matter want.Do not allow big gaps for the receivers to be open.KC is good at throwing swing passes and finding the open receivers in the 10 to 15 yard range and even deep.Those backup corners and nickel corners are mediocre so it DC job to cover their inadequacies with no JPJ.They are good at evaluating the teams offense and defense but the execution of the players is another story.The defense was just out of place last game at this junction of the season is disheartening.Even the veterans could not figure some assignments.What are they doing there?Need more sacks,pressures,deflections at the line of scrimmage,batted balls,passes defensed,interceptions and recovered fumbles.Regular season bout over you are not where you ought to be,If you are mad after a loss you should have played better during the game.Getting mad does you no good after the fact.
I don’t no every one thinks it’s his fault but it not it Mike t fault he over rides him all the time he will call a defense and Mike will change and when defense messed up. He makes it look like it the defense coordinate fault why do you think no really good defensive will come play for the Pittsburgh Steelers because of Mike t ! Start reading between the lines, dude!
Feel like his inability to coach the defense made Flores really leave … with him being over him… we’ve had the same unit for the most part the last three years he shouldn’t be having these same problems… chiefs haven’t dropped more than 30 points and are 15-1 cus of their defense … we are really better but if defense is our strong suit and we are getting out coached by the lesser group… the writing is on the wall
All I want for Christmas as a Steelers fan is a new defensive coordinator. I want more but I'll start there!

Austin's defense isn't s pressure D and it's killing us
great players on defense. Watt, Minka, Hayward. Arguably the best at their position yet such vanilla defense. No schemes just line up and go. Easy to pick apart by good Offense. Can only go so far which wont be far. Tomlin to blame. His hire.
I miss Dick LeBeau
And Troy, Debo, Hampton 😂

We should have kept Flores
Tomlin wanted someone to run his Tampa 2 Defense. That is why he did not keep Brian Flores.
What if Flores wanted to leave? Plus Tomlin said Flores was a short term thing. Lastly, wasn’t Flores the coordinator when Buffalo thrashed us in the playoffs last season? It’s OK to be mad about losses, but we can’t try to call for someone job each time a lost happens. Russ turned the ball 2xs. We’re not going to beat elite teams turning the ball over
@@chrisdavis1301nice try buddy we had Austin last season

Yeah, that was a huge mistake to let that talent walk out the door. Poor decision on Coach Tomlin, and I absolutely love Tomlin as our Coach.
Coaches are living off of dreams, too. Fire this, guy, daaaaamn! "It's starts with him"
At this level how can these guys not know what is expected of them.
Time to change your defensive scheme next year and do something completely different against these teams. Everyone in the league knows what you are going to do and beat you on your defensive scheme.
JV coordinator
Other teams know about our defense,But our own players can't figure it out!
I want Robert Selah as the steelers D.C.
Communication has been a on going problem for years now and you and Tomlin seem to not have the answers to this problem the same way neither one of you can figure out how to defend the middle of the field or cover the TE crossing the middle of the field.
Well another TE wide open again today! How in the hell this is going on every week. Kelce killed us today
im so tired of hearing this communication issue this should have been adressed 2 months ago not now!
Gotta bring pressure a little more often
We have the highest paid defense no way we should’ve looked like that for three straight games… 11 days is just an excuse… why have TJ on the edge that they cheat back on when we have a Preston smith who is bigger for the edge we could’ve moved TJ inside that last game but our defense has no creativity… it’s literally base defense with Elite talent…

Zone defense is horrible! That's the only consistency on defense
No one expect us to be where we are right now we’re playing good without are number 1 wr Some main defensive players out.

Blitz more for the love of god we are blitzburgh
We were blitzburgh
Got smoked last 3weeks and hes laughing. Hes got to go
We’ve been top 5 in every defensive category up until these last 2 games…we were also missing key players during this 2 game struggle, that’s not a coincidence
Respectfully Austin, enough with the excuses and lame defense. Come on man 😡😡😠
STOP THE ZONE BS!!! Highest paid defense??? What a waste.
Softest coach in the league he depends on his main 4 man rush...he needs to mix n match & throw some blitzes in there especially on 3rd down cuz that zone defense aint cutting it on 3rd n long cmon man watch film & learn from it.

Why is this man laughing and smiling? Your Defense is trash.
Great person Mr. Austin needs, but he cannot coach defense. He’s in over his head another one of Mike Tomlin’s bad hire. We just need to get through the season with him and get a bonfire defensive coordinator.
This was a top defense for majority of the season. Was he over his head when were winning?

That's not it. Being an DC pays much better and forwards his career. Mike is too close to his coaches. Never willing for change😊
All season long just to get worse every week
He’s lying I don’t see no changing
BLAH!BLAH!BLAH
He’s lying I don’t see no changing
