Are you crazy, bro? : Following a 30-6 loss in Houston, Steelers supporters swarmed on Mike Tomlin, Kenny Pickett, and Matt Canada.
Sharks are circling Steelers coaches and players after a 30-6 loss in Houston on Sunday.
As well as the media that covers them.
If they lose to Baltimore at home this weekend, well….
Have some apricot brandy. Here is this week’s installment of “U mad, bro?”
We’ll begin with Calvin. He was disappointed in Kenny Pickett’s performance in Houston on Sunday.
Calvin, I’m sorry to break news to you, but Pickett graduated from Pitt at the age of 38.
When I wrote about fans blaming the media for not asking Mike Tomlin “hard questions,” this is who I had in mind.

Honestly I’m a little disappointed that the Steelers media don’t push Tomlin harder to be more committal or critical of Canada. At some point something would break.
It’d be nice to actually hear him have to answer what he thinks about Canada’s performance or the offensive scheme in detail instead of just dismiss the questions with nonsense cliches.
He’s been asked that pretty much every week since the start of last year. When you say “have to answer,” we can’t “make him” answer “without nonsense cliches.” Only one guy can do that.
Guess who that is. It ain’t one of us in the media. His last name starts with an “R” and ends in “ooney.”
CJ replied to me when I shared a post on “X” about the problems in Chicago surrounding former Steelers wide receiver Chase Claypool.
Actually, this isn’t Pittsburgh, CJ. This is a worldwide social media platform. Sometimes people come here to find out about stuff that happens beyond the end of their own driveway.
And seeing as how Claypool was a Steeler less than a year ago, it’s not really beyond the end of the driveway. More like, just backing out of the garage.
There’s a thin line between sports provincialism and jingoism, and you are toe-tapping just in front of it right now.
After Seattle rookie corner Devon Witherspoon ran back a 97-yard pick-6 on “Monday Night Football” for the Seattle Seahawks, I sent out a post sarcastically alluding to Joey Porter Jr.’s lack of playing time. It appears Eric is on the same wavelength.
Indeed he does. And from what I’ve been told, “mojo” is very important.
