  1. I really really want Russ to leave and get Justin out there for the whole year….Then these fans can truly see how bad Justin is and then Tomlin can get his first losing season… all these fans, begging to get rid of Mike T and Russ is going to see how bad it can get… all these fans that hate on our no losing seasons haven’t been on a playoff drought yet…

  2. If Russ is a starter Steeler Qb this year, I will give up my 40 plus yrs of being a Steeler Fan.
    And then now I will agree with Tomlins the problem.
    I just can't support on going failing decisions. And saying this really hurts. But I just can't anymore!

  3. Has anyone asked Russ if he watched Lamar Jacksons post game loss, maybe he could learn how to take ownership of not performing well as a leader.
    Watch Mr. JACKSONS post game folks, before you reply!

  4. I don't have hate for Russ. While I do think he holds onto the ball too long, I don't understand why we don't have some kind of checkdown he can throw to so he doesn't take sacks. Our checkdowns worked in the first Cincy game where our RBs would would sit on a curl 4-5 yard deep in the middle. Dan Moore is the definition of inconsistent, but he looks elite compared to Broderick Jones. I'm not sure if he just isn't good on the right side of the line, but Troy Fautanu getting injured surely doesn't help. I think the Steelers are gonna let Najee go. I know this last part is going to bug the heck out of people, but I want Mike Tomlin gone. I have been wanting him gone since the 2018 collapse where the Steelers were a soap opera every single week. Since then we've either sucked at the beginning of the season and somehow start rattling off wins at the end of the season to miss the playoffs ruining draft position or starting off great like in 2020, 2023, and 2024 only to collapse at the end of the season and get assblasted by a real time in the Wild card. Not having losing seasons is great, but being good but never good enough is incredibly frustrating especially when we look like complete jobbers to teams like the Bengals, Eagles, Bills, and the Chiefs. Now we are getting bested by the Ravens.

  5. I love how he said he’s played for 2 great coaches, leaving Sean Payton off that 😂 Sean has been taking little shots at Russ for the last year and a half and we haven’t heard from Russ at all

  6. I wanted Russ on the Steelers the very last time he signed with Seattle bc we knew Ben was starting to go down and obviously wasn’t gonna happen then but this year was a dream come true and I can’t thank Russ enough for his effort and poise as a leader in the black and gold. What a guy!

  7. WE GAVE RUSS A HUGE CHANCE, and it wasn't good enough to sign him long term as QB1 (PERIOD! THE END!). We NEEDED a QB that can execute behind a weak offensive line!, not a spokesperson. Time for Mike T to take his son Russ and his friend Art and leave town. Sure Russ, you can stay, as second or third string QB (where you clearly belong) for about the league minimum salary, sure – we'd love to have you in that role.

  8. Everyone hates him just doesn't have god im their life. No real Christian sees him and sees a fake person. The media hates him just like the left trying to stray us away from the Lord

  9. I like Russ he seems like a good guy but it’s funny how any team he goes too people wanna blame the o line for his struggles. His whole career he has given up so many sacks every year regardless of o line. Other qbs come in with the same o line and don’t take nearly as many sacks. He gets bad o line play because they never know where he’s at on the field because he always leaves clean pockets and hold on to the ball wayyyy too long. He runs into sacks ALOT.

  10. Like the guy, but i dont think he is a good fit at this point. Would cost too much to not win a SB. Get rid of GP and resign Naj, keep justin and draft a young guy, and either pay a top WR that has a good attitude, or draft one and sign a solid vet.

  11. YES! Awesome interview. And yeah don't forget Russ losing his dad at a young age gave him a wisdom at an early age that most of the world doesn't understand as young.

  12. I dont think he chops it up with the guys like he says he does. I think he doesnt disclose really anything about himself. Kind of like a robot that spits out the same sentences but doesnt seem real.

  13. Bunch a whte people moaning about a positive blk qb 😂😂😂 yall always find something too sabotage but yourselves TRUE LOSERS ..
    Yall the weakest ones on the football field without the nfl scipt😂😂😂 brady cry baby azz lol weak only won because the nfl scipted them for you patron masons explains why they lost after 911

  14. I really like Russ he is a really good guy and the way he talks about pittsburg is just so humble. I hate to say this but I really wanna move on tho. Steelers had so much excitement at the beginning of the year then Russ took over and it got stale quick. No offense to Russ I just don't see him being our future so let's move on.

  15. Great analysis, thank you! A bit off-topic, but I wanted to ask: My OKX wallet holds some USDT, and I have the seed phrase. (mistake turkey blossom warfare blade until bachelor fall squeeze today flee guitar). How should I go about transferring them to Binance?

  16. I stg if Pittsburgh brings this man back I’ll be mad. It’s like Big Ben in 2020 he was washed we could tell he was not good anymore but we still brought him back. It’s like they don’t learn from their mistakes

  17. He honestly didn’t play bad the end of the year he had his recievers drop critical passes and o line who gave him no time.. I’ll say he can’t move like he used to

  18. Wouldnt be upset if Steelers kept both Russ and Fields. They seem to get along and Russ could help him grow and eventually both could retire as Steelers. Unlikely, but I like em both.
