It's reached a boiling point...

There is no way that he just said this. Jalen Ramsey has not only spoke out and called out the entire coaching staff. He has revealed that things are way worse than we thought. As details have leaked from within the Steelers organization, revealing that there is a huge disconnect between the players and the coaches. We're going to break down what Jalen Ramsey said. What it means going forward is we're now two days away from a crucial game against the Colts, and all of this is flooding out, as well as the latest injury news from today's practice. Time to go over this episode, but before we get into it, a very quick reminder to hit that subscribe button. You guys are an absolute piece of support. Folks, let's just dive right into it. We have a lot to discuss today. It's the unfortunate reality of the situation. The Steelers are a little bit of a disaster right now. And Jalen Ramsey has come out and exposed the Steelers. You can see he's exposed a player-coach disconnect, not just from him, but from everybody. And we're fairly aware that Jalen Ramsey is an interesting player. And the Steelers right now are in a very rough spot. But there is something I want to dive into. And that is the fact that he today just came out and said, screw it. I'm going to call out kind of the team right now. He came out and said that there is a little bit of disconnect here right now between the coaching staff, between the players, and the way that things are. Obviously, they traded Joey Porter Jr. We're going to dive into what Jalen Ramsey tweeted like minutes ago surrounding this because he had his own thoughts after this kind of blew up this afternoon. But I want to dive into the full quote here. And it's important to kind of understand what... Oh, actually, this is the Jalen Ramsey tweet. I'll dive into that in a minute. But I want to dive into the full quote. So he was asked about the new additions to the Steelers. And he said the coaches have to put them out there with us so we can all get on the same page. There's a little bit of a disconnect here right now just with what we want to do in the field and how we play as a team and together as a secondary versus just throwing a playbook in their hands and the coaches saying this is how it has to look. That's not how football works. I asked him to expand the disconnect. He referred to Aaron Rodgers saying that player-led teams are the best ones earlier in the week. So he directly calls out, whether you want to call Mike McCarthy, Patrick Graham, but it is interesting because they, of course, traded Joey Porter Jr., one of Jalen Ramsey's closest friends in the team. They sign a bunch of new guys, headlined by Sean Murphy-Bunting, and now you're at a point where Jalen Ramsey is essentially saying what the coaching staff is doing isn't going to work. They're basically just going out there, stuffing the playbook in his face. You have a new secondary. You can see here the coaches have to put the new secondary members out there with us so we can all get on the same page. But then he's saying he's just throwing the book at them, not going about it the right way. Just throwing a playbook in their hands isn't going to work. So this has caused a bunch of, I don't want to say drama per se, but a bunch of, I mean, it is drama at the end of the day here, surrounding this, because people are now saying, how are the Steelers already having coaching issues? They just had a new coach. Is Patrick Graham losing the room? These are all things that are pretty important to think about and talk about here. And for Jalen Ramsey, like, I mean, the secondary is in a very, very rough spot right now. Jamel Dean, though, reports came out that he might be available, I don't think Sunday, but the next week. So his injury is less severe than people thought. But for him to just come out and fully, I don't want to say, he kind of blasts the coaching staff here, but quietly, wasn't expected. Wasn't on my bingo card today, which is kind of funny because this team is being decimated with a bunch of different things. I mean, Jamel Dean's obviously injured. You have Joey Porter Jr., and this has led to a lot of people saying that Joey Porter Jr. intentionally was being told by Jalen Ramsey to kind of sit out of games, and that, you know, Jalen Ramsey played a part in Joey Porter Jr. sitting games before he got traded, and Ramsey tweeted a minute ago this. Y'all are crazy. The Joey narrative has to stop. I didn't tell anybody not to play. It's a flat out lie. I want to be teammates with good players. Why would I tell a guy who I think is a top four, top five corner to fake an injury? The man was in the building trying to get right at 6 a.m. and engaged in every meeting. Why would I not want a chance to suit up with him as a Pittsburgh Steeler? Doesn't make sense. Don't take me being in his corner the wrong way. His business is his business and I'm rocking with him, but I'm a Steeler and I want all good players to be a part of this team. I'm trying to win. So it is a good point, right? Because there was, I think it was Andrew Filippone, surprise, surprise of all people saying that Jalen Ramsey was one of the people who kind of pushed Joey Porter Jr. to sit out. We won't know if that's true or not. Missing Joey Porter Jr. is very unfortunate. And it's funny that this has started to come out within all of the talks about Joey Porter Jr. or about Jalen Ramsey being traded to potentially the Lions. I had a video on that yesterday. There was rumblings about him potentially being unhappy here. Now, obviously, that has been put into the forefront. There's already, I mean, there's so many trade talks being kind of brought up right now about Joey Porter Jr., or I keep saying Joey Porter Jr., about Jalen Ramsey. So comment down below what your thoughts are on this. At the end of the day here, it's going to be a very important game tomorrow against the Colts, and you can see in his career how things go there. I don't know. It is, this team needs some help because, guess what? Jamel Dean, we do have an update. He's doing better than expected, but I'm going to dive into the secondary status right now ahead of tomorrow's or Sunday's game. So he did not practice today. Jalen Ramsey, of course, was limited with his wrist injury. You have Terrell Smith and Sean Murphy Bunting practicing, and they're obviously the new additions that Jalen Ramsey specifically is talking about as it pertains to the coaching staff maybe not doing a good enough job. But the latest on Jamel Dean was that he is looking like the injury is nowhere near as bad as initially thought. So that is very, very good news. And for the secondary, didn't practice, probably not going to play Sunday. Jalen Ramsey is going to play. He's playing with a broken wrist. Still not awful news. So kind of the full report here. Obviously, Michael Pittman Jr., he's done for a very long time. Jalen Ramsey, Deshaun Elliott, Rico Dowdle, we're limited. So Rico Dowdle is another one. Hopefully he'll be available. But at the same time, if not, you have Jalen Ramsey or Jalen Warren that you have to get out and he's absolutely running the life out of the ball. So I'm hoping that the offense and Mike McCarthy can make the correct adjustments here. But at the end of the day, it is a very intriguing time of the year because you have people calling out the coaching staff. And guess how many games in we are? We're four games in. Four. That's all it takes. But yeah, the latest update, again, I'm just going to get it open here. You have Rico Dowdle and Jalen Ramsey as questionable. Michael Pittman's out. Jamel Dean is out. And Deshaun Elliott are all out. But Deshaun is trending towards a return, which is decent, decent news there. So it is going to be a wild, wild ride here. And a couple other things I want to go over is Deshaun Elliott really quick, because in case you missed it, yeah, it's going to be a little bit of time, but he is actually making progress. Mike McCarthy came out there and revealed that he is making progress, and then he's hopefully going to be back for the following weeks. Not this upcoming Sunday, he's already been ruled out, but the week after. When you start to look at the defense and kind of the way that things are going right now, If you can get Rico Dowdle potentially back, and you can get, for Sunday, he's questionable at this point, but if you can get Deshaun Elliott back for the following Sunday, and then Jamel Dean comes back, who, again, at this point, seeming like he's trending towards the potential of that happening, you're all of a sudden in a decent spot for this upcoming season. And there's going to be a lot of talks all season long about, you know, obviously Michael Pittman Jr. is being out, maybe potentially making another trade. At the end of the day here, you're dealing with injuries. That's the way things are. So as well as one final thing here, I know I mentioned it earlier in the video, here's the full screenshot on it. So Alex, Alan Saunders reporting that even though it was initially reported that Jamel Dean was going to miss multiple weeks, he appears to be trending ahead of that curve. He was feeling better Monday than we expected. It's now, of course, Friday. He is ruled out for the game Sunday, which was always going to be the case. The target for him is the week from this Sunday. So Dowdle's trending towards the right direction. Jamel Dean's trending towards the right direction. Problem is players are still calling out coaches and the team in general is not trending towards the right direction. Sign up down below. Do you think it is a coaching staff issue? Do you think that it is just Jalen Ramsey being a little bit too emotional out there? Do you think he's too upset with the turnaround and trading Joey Porter Jr., who was his close friend? It is a wild time. Let me know down below what your thoughts are on all of this. We'll have more videos coming with the game right around the corner.
