Perfect fit with the coach, gm, oc and qbs

[Buff]

Offense this year is a breath of fresh air from years past.

The fact that Smith took an OC job instead of kicking back and enjoying life is a testament to the respect Coach T has amongst his peers.

I can't belive there are still doubters. It looks like things offensively are starting to come together, which was going to take a little time. It's also nice to know when one aspect of this team lacks in a game the others carry them. They don't care who does it, they are so happy for one another and have an incredible inner competition with each other. Im excited to see where this goes this year and the next few!

DK I remember hearing one of Arthur Smith’s first press conferences on your channel, and immediately thinking Tomlin found his right hand man. You’re 100% right, he sounds and looks like a western PA guy. Hopefully he stays here a bit before getting scooped up by somebody else!

[ryanjamesc]

For the first time in a LONG time, we’re not solely dependent on the D to win games…it seems with each passing successful game, the D is simply complementary! That’s a refreshing thought #PSFL

[MarkCunningham-ofkj]

DK, Arthur Smith has been just what we needed, we're lucky to have him as you explained, we were also lucky KP requested that trade so we could acquire Fields, we'll never know for sure but I don't think we go 4 - 2 if KP starts those first 6 games, but this D? There's nothing lucky or fluky about them whatsoever! We get multiple turnovers weekly, ITS WHAT WE DO! By the way I think Jackson has 5 picks so far! Love waking up to your work and i forgot to compliment the photo of Frazier recently! Great job sir 😎

Top 10 DK ! Arthur Smith is on top of his game. He is a good fit for the Pittsburgh Steelers. I had questioned him for a short while but, look at their/his record. I am so looking forward to this game. Lets see how more time to prepare looks with a better plan. Thank you DK for all you do !

[timtaber]

Thanks DK!! You are so fair!! This trait makes you the best in my eyes! So refreshing!! Rock on

[chrisrobinson]

I do. He is a breath of fresh air. Especially when compared to Matt Canada

[lindaamodeo]

Wow I had no idea statistically the offense is where it is! Omg I am still recovering from the offensive drought from the past years. I am so glad for Arthur Smith and all the offensive talent that has lived it for this past few years and must feel free 😂

[stanleysheffield]

Have a wonderful day DK HARD working Stan the man checking in. I'm listening 🎧 as usual.

[joanfrench]

Love your podcast, DK!!! You are the best!!! You tell it like it is!!!

[kentsturgill]

Good morning DK . I heard Tomlin use the lightning strike quote to Herbig also, not sure who coined it, him or Highsmith but its a good one when it comes to this D's ability to create splash . I agree totally on Arthur Smith, it takes a little time to learn your players, and them to learn you. Thing is I dont thing they're done getting better there's still room for growth, and improvement.

[keithmuir]

Thanks DK! Jackson has 5 picks so far! Just letting you know!

Steelers Nation, DK just laid it our for ya in today's episode... We have a Top 10 Offense and Top 10 Defense... IN THE SAME SEASON! We are GOOD! We are trying to become GREAT! And my fellow "Towel Swingers! we are getting there. Keep your chin up, chest out, be proud and LETS GO STEELERS!

[darrenkeddle]

I actually laughed out loud at that J1Q! The defence relying on fluke plays? They're far too good at what they do for there to be anything fluke about it!

[BEzzy]

Also DK on that scoop and score Herbig positioned himself to set up Wilson to get the ball instead of going for it himself and causing chaos in recovering the fumble. Many players would have selfishly ran into each other to get to that ball.

[ViciousVioletteLV]

I listen every morning and have been since you started putting this on YouTube. Someone said it earlier, you’re very fair in your comments and I appreciate that because I trust in your reporting. Like Russ said, this game is a team effort. It takes time for an offense to build a relationship and trust with a new OC and it appears that is starting to happen. What annoys me with some fans is they want us to be absolutely perfect on both sides of the ball in every game and blow out our opponents. Did they not watch the close game between the Chiefs and Raiders? The Raiders stink on both sides of the ball. I thought the Chiefs were going to give them a beating but that didn’t happen. So it goes to show, the #1 team in the NFL could’ve lost to a VERY bad team…ngl, but I kinda wanted to see the Raiders beat them. 😂😂😂
