Donald Washington

I've said this all preseason and training camp.

Yes, the offensive line certainly has to be... cohesive and play a lot better and can we start getting some catches there from DK Metcalf and you didn't see much from Donald Washington today and I know Pat Frymouth got a couple of touches but yeah this offense should be doing a lot better and now the run game is terrible I'm sorry I love Jalen Warren Enrico Dotto who knows what his future is going to be as far as his health goes I would think he'd come back but who knows it is a toe injury and you had the one kid Travis Homer actually had a couple of carries one actually 12 yards for a first down who knows if he's going to get any burn next week I mean, again, in this offense, you talk about they have a lot of explaining to do.

Well, it all starts tomorrow when they look in the film room and get themselves together because if they will not get themselves in sync and lined up and ready to go come Sunday, ooh, it could be another long afternoon for this team.

And three points obviously isn't going to cut it.

None of them were asking to be paid like the number one of their position.

Donald Washington didn't say, I want to reset the tight end market.

Nick Herbig didn't say, I want to reset the outside linebacker market.

Keanu Benton didn't say, I want to reset the nose tackle market.

I agree, and I think that's the thing here is the balanced attack the Steelers could have if they come out and they execute it the right way.

DK Metcalf as a number one, Michael Pittman as a number two, Jermyn Bernard, Roman Wilson as your alternating number threes, Pat Farmer with Donald Washington as dual tight ends, both named as co-starters on the Steelers' official depth chart.

Rico Dowdle pairing as a number two behind Jalen Warren, I just to your point, Jenna, I just really like the idea that this offense could use all of those different things in a way that makes it difficult to predict what direction they're heading.

What are they going to favor? What if I'm a defense? What am I trying to take away? All those things add up to me as an advantage to the Steelers and it needs to be an advantage.

I don't think he was.

Same with Donald Washington.

And both guys, I think, probably would have been better served coming back for another year at Ohio State.

I remember

Threw hard for the first down.

Bruston, his first reception of the game, working against the nickel man, Donald Washington, who slides to the outside of the nickel package frequently.

And I'll tell you, not much conversation, if any, about Chad Henney all week.

All the attention to Troy Smith.

Ball right there to Breston.

Not to mention going after a player who had been on the field a lot in this game.

He goes right to the freshman, Donald Washington, like to match up with Steve Breston against him and puts the ball right where it needs to be.

And a movement by the right guard, Alex Mitchell.
