DHop...why not us

Post by swissvale72 » Thu Dec 05, 2024 4:59 pm

Just watching, on "get up," Dan orlovsky listing the 5 most important non-qbs at this point in the season. How saquon Barkley isnt on the list is inexplicable. In any event though, #2 was TJ Watt, #1 was deandre Hopkins.

The Steelers winning a game on the lone target to Mike Williams, makes that move a wise one for the Steelers, but man, how we could have benefited from Deandre Hopkins on our roster. He would have been exactly what the Steelers needed for a SB run.

We tried. We reached out and he wasn’t interested.

Dude apparently thought it was a better move and that he had a better chance of winning big going to play with Kansas City and Mahomes.

Wild, I know. :D

Ugh



Low Watt at #2 is a lead pipe lock he continues his zero for lifetime impact in the playoffs


Being the black hole of clutch is one thing


Having some legit expectations of success put on him ??

Low Watt gonna low watt

Steelers #2 WR is primarily a blocking position. Van Jefferson, Skowronek, even Mike Williams to an extent get in there to run block more than run routes. Hopkins wouldn’t be used much here and probably wouldn’t be happy. It’s like crying about trading Dionte Johnson away.

Or the annual cryfest about losing to get a higher draft pick
