2. Tight ends and running back receiving yards would need to be factored out. For example, Miller has a ton of catches and TDs, but his yard totals are usually very low. Dwyer and Redman aren't exactly Reggie Bush when it comes to yards after the catch either.

I don't know what those rankings are, but if I were a betting man, I'd say they probably blow your team right out of the water, by far. Case in point; Look at Mike Wallace. Is he suddenly over the hill? Has he lost all of his speed in less than a calendar year? Or perhaps the offense no longer prioritizes the deep ball? Aj Green has more TD's of I think 50+ yards? than anybody else in the league. Does that mean he's faster than Mike Wallace or could it be he's running more deep routes? I'm not arguing Wallace vs Green, but the fact of the matter is you're comparing stats in a complete vacuum and that's entirely inappropriate given the completely different offense and utilization of passing games. That's like comparing 2 women's massive knockers without any mention of the giant mole or blue vein on top of one, then telling me those hooters are better just because they're 1/16th of a cup larger.

Steeler WR's=128 catches,1612 yards,8 TD's Bengal WR's=143 catches,1832 yards,17 TD's To put it into perspective for you guys,AJ Green[10] has more TD catches than your entire WR corps. Last edited by Whatever; 11-24-2012 at 12:18 PM. |

I wouldn't say Wallace has lost his deep speed,but the guy is a dropped ball machine in the games I'm watching. That hurts him. I would be willing to bet that this is Wallace's worst year for drops by far. The new offensive philosophy of Haley hurts your WR's. However,not in the way that you think. Under Arians,if there was nobody open downfield,Ben would scramble until somebody got open deep. Now,if the WR's don't get open downfield,Ben's suppossed to check it down to a RB or TE and move on to the next down. It's not that the Steelers are taking a lot fewer designed deep shots. It's that they are not getting the huge chunks of yards off of broken plays. Why did all those sandlot plays take place in the first place? Because your WR's weren't getting seperation and needed Ben to buy them time to get open. As far as moles and veins,the biggest mole in this entire debate is the fact that outside of Wallace,the Steelers have no WR's that can actually score TD's. |

Next year Miller could catch 25 TDs, 23 of which happen in the redzone. If 90% of our called redzone plays are passes to Heath and 9 of his TDs came in 4th quarter garbage time, is Miller one of the most talented tight ends to ever play the game? Keep in mind, last year he had 2 TDs, this year so far he has 6 and next year he ends up with 25. Did his talent magically go from below average to unstoppable in 2 years, or did he take on a different role which drastically changed his stats?

I'm not going to read any more of that bull ****. You're trying to fit some intangible component to a tangible comparison because you can't say the Steelers WRs are statistically better than the Bengals right now. It's complete, utter, lame, bull (capital asterisks). I can't stress how complete and utterly lame it is. The English language is lacking in describing how super weak your spinning is. You want to crow about how great the Steelers "core" is-- in the past-- and now that it doesn't fit, you want to add a qualifier to it. Don't bother replying to this post with more lame-*** bull ****. If that's all you have, just skip past it and try and beguile someone else with your virtual 'slippery serpents tongue'. I'm not impressed or fooled. |

![]() The point I and every steeler fan has been trying to get through to you all is that the Steelers don't go deep that much. Sure they may take a shot just to keep the defense honest, but what they really depend on is the yards after the catch. That is what makes the offense go. It also takes the heat off of the offensive line and Ben or whoever is the QB, because the ball comes out faster. As far as Brown and Sanders not scoring TD's, that is because they are used between the twenty's. Once the Steelers hit the red zone it is Miller who takes front stage |

The QB will throw the ball to whoever is open depending on the coverage. So you can't say, "every time the Steelers get near the end zone, they target Miller". If he's getting most of the TDs it's because he's open or the QB likes that matchup the best. Steelers fans keep bringing up how they have the best WR "core". So don't get too upset when it's shown that they're behind in the comparison. You don't get it both ways. Last year the comparison was made that the Steelers were putting up better numbers and they didn't want to hear anything about Dalton being a rookie or getting rid of the ball quickly or throwing it away to play another down. It was all about 'Elite Ben and the Amazing Flying Wide Receivers'. |

More than the entire Arians era combined, but I've yet to see us run one with a defender in press coverage on the guy we are going to throw to.

Yep and that is because if they try press coverage on Wallace, they are going to get burned. They have to play off of him, same thing with Brown and Sanders. As a defender you have to respect their speed.

Sorry, but all you have done was prove I am consistant with my point about stats being highly dependant on the system. Look at my explaination as to why Wallace wouldn't actually have his 2,000 yard season. And my spot on prediction about Wallace's production factored in his role in the offense. Just because I talked about numbers doesn't mean you caught me trying to use them to compare Wallace to receivers used in different systems.
