‘Not Right Now: ‘Teryl Austin Still Won’t Commit To Starting CB Joey Porter Jr.

I hate this coaching staff sometimes man
Teryl Austin is lucky that Matt Canada is employed to the same team as him
If this isn’t lip service then send him and Canada packing at the end of the year.
Jesus help us ðŸ˜ðŸ˜ðŸ˜
I really don’t know what I don’t know, here. I’d rather he be out there instead of Wallace.
Sure, I have no problem with the Steelers not starting Joey Porter Jr. this week. Bye week is a bit of a tough opponent. Give him one more week and then start him 🙂
Porter just had the best game of any rookie in Week 5, and the two guys ahead of him on the depth chart look like burnt toast. I get that the Steelers like easing rookies into action, but Porter looked ready. Keep him limited against the Rams if you want due to Kupp and Nacua, but he needs to be starting by the time we face the Jaguars at the end of October. Can’t afford to drop AFC games.
As long as he gets more snaps after the bye then I am fine with this.
Austin job should be on the chopping block like Canada’s.
Do whatever it takes to make sure Chandon Sullivan doesn’t see the field again. Slide Pat Pete to the slot, let JPJr take his spot outside on sub package downs.
Fuck this guy
Man this is average tier coaching man just what’s the point.
I wonder how much of the responsibility for this decision lies with Tomlin—and even though it can be exhausting having every little flaw go back to MT, he is the guy with control over the defense. If Austin and Tomlin can’t see that JPJ is an upgrade on Wallace and Pat Pete, then IDK what they’re doing over there. I get easing a rookie in, but I don’t see any big mistakes from Porter to this point.
This coaching staff is an absolute disaster. Can’t get out of their own way
Puka and Cupp are going to absolutely shred this D if JPJ isn’t on the field.
With as bad as the starters have been, there’s no reason to wait any longer at this point.
It’s not like he won’t play. They said he would get more snaps every game.
The fetish for mediocrity on this team is disturbing
Why does Teryl Austin thinks JPJ is not ready yet? Is he stupid?
So we start a game with Peterson and Wallace, we get diced up so late in the third we change to Porter and Wallace, suddenly our pass defense is way better, then you come out and say he’s still not ready. I’m so glad it’s hockey season
He is absolutely going to be needed after the bye week vs the Rams
His sample size is really small to now ask him to do it all game. This sub wants to hate every coach but this isn’t a slight on JPJ, corner is a hard position to play as a rookie full time. It will take one bad play where he gets burnt due to miscommunication and you guys will ask for his head. Chill out.
Obviously he is being brought along more and more each week. This is smart and shouldn’t be shit on like it is through this whole thread.
JPJ: Am I a joke to you?
At what point can we let the coaches coach? Every arm chair analyst thinks you can just put a guy in and they’ll succeed. I don’t hate this approach at all, did artie burns every down work wonders for us?
I like the idea of giving him a few series of play. He needs to be patient and keep balling. You gotta rotate guys and give breaks on defense. Especially with how much these guys are playing. JPJ plays Pat P’s side. However, Levi Wallace is our Ike Taylor. He gets burnt in coverage but he has some INTs. This first season is very critical to JPJ’s development. Everybody needs to be patient, trust Tomlin and trust the process!
I would definitely ramp up Poderick though
Looking forward to next year when trice and jpj force this team to play press.
Copper kupp is literally going to eviscerate our secondary good lord
