Who has game rewind?

I am rewatching the Steelers coaches film and had some observations- man Fisher gets beat to the outside like a rented mule every snap. Harris and Linkenbach are actually even worse than Fisher. Harris gets beat inside every play. Fulton is playing like a beast though and with a legitimate tackle next to him, I think he looks way better. He's very good at passing off a lineman and getting to the second level.

Alex Smith does not go through progressions at all and does a terrible job of reading defenses. He also gives up on plays too early - and defaults to the checkdown without actually reading the defense or his progression, imo.

Wilson has been very well-coached with respect to route running.

On the defensive side - the d-lineman are great at owning the line of scrimmage, but our inside linebackers have terrible gap discipline. Coleman is a legit starting safety. The corners were extremely effective save for Owens.

I do.

Sorter - what is your gif-maker o' choice? I feel like many points could be well-supported through the use of gifs.

fisher gets beat to the outside every time and likenbach and harris are worse....alex smith gives up on plays too early....could there be a connection between your two observations?

Alex Smith gives up on plays where there is no pressure. Quit making excuses on behalf of the worlds most average quarterback.

Not that he should or shouldn't, but I'm sure getting hit every other play has something to do with that.

If you're expecting pressure every play, which based on his history he does, this is what you get.
