It sucks a lot but fortunately Highsmith has shown some promise as Bud's eventual replacement after he leaves next off-season.

I hope Bud gets healthy and gets that contract. It sucks it won't be for Pittsburgh but if it comes down to keeping him or Watt/Minkah then the choice is pretty clear.



Good timing for Williamson signing too when they did it. Hopefully he recovers and gets paid by someone!

be honest did any of you expect to be 11-0 at this point?


Naaah haha. I was pretty confident we would be #1 in our division going into the season tho.

No team realistically should realistically ever expect to go undefeated.

That being said I did think we would be a top 5 team with a healthy Ben.

Pittsburgh's receivers are young and talented but with that they also have young mistakes. I love them but they struggled to catch some routine passes. They also dropped some contested catches that normally they make.

They can't play like that when we play the Bills and Colts. Not having Tuitt definitely hurt the run game so having him back eventually will be great.

TJ Watt leads the NFL in sacks, QB hits, and tackles for loss.

Steelers defense leads the NFL in takeaways, least points allowed, and sacks.

I think a couple more games with a sack recorded and they set a NFL record for most consecutive games with a sack 😎

Tied for 2nd most in a row all time right now.

Watt, Cam, Tuitt, and Alualu potentially could all make either the 1st or 2nd team All Pro. I don't remember the Steelers ever having this dominant of a defensive line which is saying a lot.
