JuJu

We can talk about o-line or 3rd down issues, but I like to end on a positive note. JuJu Smith-Schuster has certainly been that. The guy has put together 3 straight 100+ yard games. He hauled in 9 catches for 116 yards against the Bucs including a 43 yard grab. He’s got 356 yards so far. If he keeps this pace he’ll finish with almost 1,900 receiving yards.

dark. Next. It's time to be honest about Mike Tomlin

Sure, he probably won’t do that much. But a 1,000 yard season? He’s a good game away from halfway there already. A lot of it has to do with the attention Brown draws to him, but let’s not underplay what JuJu is doing. He’s not the tallest or the fastest, but he’s just above average at everything and it really comes together to make JuJu a dangerous player.

Knowledge is power so let’s see what we learn Sunday against the Ravens.
