I mean, it's pretty extreme, considering they're in the same spot in the draft order.
I feel like most people have resigned themselves to a tank - and like I said, that 2nd half playcalling was doing everything they could to make that happen, so I feel like the coaches might be on board too - but you can't MAKE the Steelers take the cheese, if they're that bad. I mean, they've lost to two tanking 2-10 teams at home in 4 days.
I'm not going to be mad about it. The defense with its obvious flaws continues to play tremendously well, and the receivers looked engaged finally, because the QB actually gives them a chance. It must be incredibly frustrating to know your QB gives you no chance every time a pass play is called. That bodes well for next year, the players who will be here anyway.
They're not catching Carolina, Carolina can't field a pro team right now since they traded everyone, but maybe with the 2 or 3 they can trade into that spot, we don't know.
It's not like they're going to rip of 5 straight wins after losing 5 straight.
