FIRST TAKE | Russell Wilson is Super Bowl Bound! - Stephen A. breaks Steelers' "brutal" schedule

[@moye185]

Every year it's Baltimore is the team to beat. We beat them every year even with back ups lol

[@trevonjoyner1102]

What I been saying

[@stevo843]

Every year it’s the same thing, we on the ratbirds

[@solohour]

Steelers are 7-1 in the last 8 games against the Ravens. Just saying...

[@avastackhouse5224]

All y’all is so wrong!! Steelernation Will be winning the AFC NORTH!

[@Wicked_RotF30]

Fields is the future franchise QB of the Steelers. He will learn alot from steelers trainers and Russ. Chicago didn't try to develop him.

[@TyshonnMclaurin-b9r]

And more watch us work 💪🏾✅ #stairwayto7

Factz

[@pineytreez6811]

The 2024 Steelers reminded me of the 1970's Oakland Raiders. In the 70's the Steelers stood in the raiders way & the team that reminds me of the 1970's Steelers is the Kansas City Chiefs...the Steelers are gonna Dethrone the Chiefs just like the Raiders did the Steelers in 1976.

[@RobertDavis-vg6uy]

Russ will continue to prove haters wrong. HOF 9 probowls 100 QB rating 44k passing 5300 rushing 337 Tds 106 int 39 game winning drives. Superbowl champion

[@LisaMoore-ut6je]

We beat The ravens every year When we Didn't have russell wilson Don't count the steelers out😊

[@kaine82]

Where are the power house AFC teams thar the steelers cant beat to get to the Super Bowl. I don't see them.

[@ralisalewis351]

Correct!😊

[@defrank1870]

Steelers will get an elevated position in the playoffs, no lower than the 5th seed. Reason: OC is LIGHTYEARS better than Canada, and no crap QBs. The past ten years, the Steelers missed the playoffs by losing winnable games, and by losing games played by backup QBs. This isn't the situation now. Steelers win AT LEAST 4 more games this year - putting them at 10 wins - that's a playoff berth. If they want a shot at the Superbowl, they should run the ball the rest of the season, and then bust out a HEAVY PASSING ATTACK in the playoffs. The league won't know what hit them.

[@macanthony1982]

yep... The Steelers now have the luxury of running the ball, when opponents stack the box, they can throw it... when teams play back, they can pound the rock.. with a good QB now, teams will now have to pick their poison...

[@LynellBridges-q5f]

If we can add another wideout to the offense I think we have shot, provided our defense can stay healthy

[@randalon75]

In Russ We Trust

[@sharondawoods8805]

Man folks counted Russell out and now # 3 Jersey’s are sold out. I hope he wins the division and Super bowl and dip on the steelers ✌🏽✌🏽✌🏽✌🏽

[@Zaysearth]

Dip on the Steelers for what? They’re giving him burn and letting him do what he does best

[@sharondawoods8805]

@ yeah, but once he makes one error we both know steelers would X him out.

[@SheldonAllen585]

Steelers4life…. Last my a….😂😂 that’s what they said the beginning of the year tf…..we winning the division

[@CarrieAnn77]

We beat the Ravens twice last year with Kenny Pickett. I believe out of the last eight times we faced Lamar Jackson we beat them 7 how to read times. The Steelers have Lamar Jackson's number and they always have.

[@Wicked_RotF30]

Fields is the future of the steelers! He will be the franchise QB for 15+ years! Guarantee it!!! He will win SuperBowls for Steelers!!!

[@S0CD0C]

Hopefully he picks up some tips from Wilson on throwing that deep ball and picking targets over the middle.

[@gaddyify]

Field is trash. Just accept he's the backup.

[@DevaunReed]

Every one talking bout the jets and giants weren’t good 😆 they had Aaron rodgers davante adams and a stacked defense fr

[@Danoie67]

Agreed.......both defenses are solid...Jets just beat the Texans!

[@Kevbarr-b9m]

If you smell what the Russ is cooking!

[@kimm3375]

Russ has played those QBs before and won.

[@ramonantonioceronsolis3484]

thanks for share

[@chuckchillout618]

Baltimore has hit there ceiling they cant get any better. Steelers still has room to improve and van go all tha way if Russ and 22 and Watt can stay healthy

[@S0CD0C]

If the Steelers make the playoffs after the schedule they’re about to face, I’d say they’re the favorite to go to New Orleans.

[@devoutone1]

What I know is that none of these broadcasters were taking about AFC championship or Superbowl a couple months back. Fields wasn't good enough and Russ suck and was too old. Keep that same energy don't jump on the wagon now. Let's just watch and see how things play out. One fact is glaringly evident. A lot of them don't like Russ. They never did.

[@sheilabimpong1430]

These commentators are so confusing and annoying. Today he sucks, tomorrow he is fantastic , the next day he's something else. Leave these guys alone to play ball.

[@stantonwebb6032]

Damn it Stephen A. I was hoping we’d have a good season

[@DeCurtaRican]

Kimberly Martin is wrong. If Russ were not there, this team wouldn’t be a SB contender, and they are one now, whether they get another receiver or not.

[@cookingwithdcook5393]

Funny how Ravens is the team to beat why was the last time Ravens beat Steelers

[@KXNGTAYLOR7]

Don’t say it too loud tho …you’ll hear it’s because the WRs dropped the balls or #8 didn’t play the second game or has barely played even tho he’s 2-4 when he does play them …keep the FG posts moving.

[@HenryCrawford-yy3rj]

For some reason the national media don't want the steelers to be successful always putting the Ravens ahead of the steelers every year then pittsburgh prove them wrong I'm expecting the same thing this year..... so sad!!!😅😂

[@jaimeortiz4667]

So did they suddenly forget that Kenny Pickett beat the ravens? What do you think Russel Wilson is gonna do??

[@jaymcgavisk4929]

Why are so many people surprised that Russ is playing so good in Pittsburgh? He didn't mesh well w/Sean Payton at Denver! The Steelers are a Play Action Team. Russ is a Play Action QB. Plus unlike Kenny Pickett & even Big Ben. He moves the ball around to 5,6,7 targets. Ben last 2-3 yrs of his career threw to 1 guy Deonte Johnson mainly. He would get to the line and look automatically to his left at Deonte. Very predictable! He was almost drooling over Deonte not in a gay way of course. Sure Deonte got 5 yard dump off passes. Not much more. Fields didn't have the vision or accuracy of Russ. But they are playing sloppy offense right now but it's still much improved w/Russ! And I think 🤔 they will improve as long as Tomlin doesn't play for field goals as he was at the beginning of the year (&for many yrs previously). I think he realized (as I've been saying for yrs) playing for field goals is one day going to bit him in the butt as it did against Dallas! You can't solely rely on your defense only as they usually always do. Yes TJ is All World- Awesome 😎! But that defense has been a little shaky lately letting teams run and pass on them. Scoring TD's off long runs! Joey Porter playing 10 yards off the ball. All the receiver has to do is turn around and he gets a 10 yard reception with no effort! I get the prevent defense but when Joey did that in the Giants game they got 8-10yds. On 4th/2 the Giants went for it & got it.

[@pineytreez6811]

They love them Ratbirds and hate the Steelers...what a bunch of haters!!!..🤬

[@MiltonZapata-rp1xz]

We have beaten their ASS every year

[@funnymanpage]

His name is not Calvin Austin Junior. It’s Calvin Austin the third.

[@jaymcgavisk4929]

Well Stephen A the reason they are ranked 28th in TD efficiency is because of Mike Tomlin playing for field goals. He's been ok playing it safe running so they don't turn it over by throwing. And plus the sloppy play of things like face mask calling George TD back in Giants game. Third, stupid plays maybe called by Tomlin telling his OC to call in the Red Zone like sideways passes which most of the time are a waste of a down and a loss of yards. Sideways passes 🏈 are not screens. Screens are a little to the side but up the field 1-2 yards usually. The momentum of the player is moving forward. Unlike w/a sideways pass they receiver has to sit for the ball 🏈 to arrive and then run forward. By that time the defender is in his face along with 5-6 of his team mates & half of the Fans in the Stadium. Screens are best used like Big Ben did with Jerome Bettis. Instead of taking the sake it was like a bail out. Plus they are used when the running back chips a defensive player &/or nobody is open down the field. You don't score going sideways (East/West). You score going North/South- straight ahead! But either way the QB should not throw the ball 🏈 unless there are some blockers for his guy catching the ball 🏈 .

[@ericsinclair1826]

I'll bet you anything Steelers will be at the ratbirds and take the north. You think Tomlin is gonna let the Raven beat him with a real legit quarterback. You on that good shit.

[@MiltonZapata-rp1xz]

I Love ❤️ her she is such a beautiful lady and a sweet sister

[@RobertMayer-f3h]

Bro we beat the raven twice last year with no quarterback back there now that russ is cooking the ravens ant got no chance to beat Pittsburgh

[@macanthony1982]

Why do these "analysts" on Ravens ball-sack?? Ravens defense are not good this season, why do they think that they ae lock to win he division??

[@erickbonilla3680]

Russ had to games and everyone flipped on justin 😂 lol funny to see

[@DeCurtaRican]

Nobody flipped on Justin. Everybody loves Justin. He’s just not ready.

[@MiltonZapata-rp1xz]

TJ WATT is going to get Lamar boy

[@WVron247_steelersstud1]

Stop doing your talking after the show..we don't understand you? And stop please

[@kinga-wall3128]

In Russ we trust lol 😆

[@jefffowlerr]

the Steelers have a really good chance to win afc north because the browns beat the Ravens 😂😂😂😂 so of the Steelers beat the browns twice and go 1an1 with Baltimore we have the tie breaker

[@phil_hazelchiero1644]

He said that but we are on top of the division lol

[@JorgeCesarSuarezSuarez]

Steven A. You are a joke 😂 steelers are not going no where.

[@pineytreez6811]

You're the joke, and the Joke is on you if you think the Ravens going to beat the Steelers

[@barrymaxwell5674]

I betted 10 bands they going they gods team

[@RobertDavis-vg6uy]

Russ will continue to prove haters wrong. HOF 9 probowls 100 QB rating 44k passing 5300 rushing 337 Tds 106 int 39 game winning drives. Superbowl champion

[@noirmanoir1061]

He's a fighter man. A great qb. He just needed to be humbled. He got too self absorbed and thought his shit don't stink.

[@jameslee8519]

He's around a real team/coach most was just talk

[@kimm3375]

He didn’t need to be humbled. Always want to see a black person who is intelligent, confident and talented or rich humbled. Talk about the white QBs that need humbling.

[@noirmanoir1061]

@kimm3375 i am black and am very much about my people, however, russ is the type of brother who likes to be positioned higher than the other brothers, if you get what i mean. He's made a nice transition from house to field negro and that's great. To me, there is no honor in wanting to be set apart from the team by management like some white qbs - not all of them - want to be set apart. That's just my opinion of russ. I always rooted for russ.

[@DeCurtaRican]

@@noirmanoir1061: I’ve had exposure to the Seahawks and worked around some of them. Too many people who don’t know him are listening to rumors and making assumptions. You’re wrong! Russ is the same dude he has always been, and his current teammates love him. As someone who knows the Seahawks VERY well, I can tell you that Richard Sherman needed to be humbled! Percy Harvin was a jealous cancer. Russ didn’t receive any perks other QBs of his caliber did not! Even Derek Carr had an office.

[@noirmanoir1061]

@DeCurtaRican your choice in women says a lot about a man. His ex wife and his current wife speaks volumes about his change and racial self awareness. That said, people do exaggerate things and im sure what you say has some merit, too.
