MusaOh boy. Steelers Nation has officially reached DEFCON 1—and this time, the target isn’t the opposing defense. It’s their own quarterback, who’s currently being dragged through the digital mud like a sled on Heinz Field in December.
After a painfully sluggish performance in what should’ve been a statement game, fans took to social media with the fury of a thousand dropped passes. The trending hashtag? #IsHeEvenTrying—which, frankly, says it all.
From missed throws to looking like he was reading the playbook mid-snap, the Steelers QB looked completely out of sync. And the fans? Well, they noticed. Comments ranged from “I’ve seen more movement in a wax museum” to “Does his paycheck come with a lawn chair and Gatorade?”
Even former players subtly joined the pile-on, with one retired Steeler tweeting a cryptic, “Tough to win games without a leader under center.” Ouch.
To his credit, the QB stayed silent on social media, likely because opening Instagram at this point would feel like stepping into a digital steel cage match. But silence doesn’t mean escape—the memes are multiplying, and the local talk radio shows are having a field day.
One thing is clear: Steelers fans are passionate, impatient, and ready for answers. Preferably ones that come with a spiral and a touchdown celebration, not a 3-and-out and another week of online roasting.
