Haden a Steeler

  • Well guess it's one of those rare moments when it works out equally well for both teams.

    Yeah, Haden wasn't a all pro his first game on his new team.

    And he's been pretty rock solid since.

    He has contributed positively to our team, is not regularly picked on or targeted all game like some of our previous CBs. Our pass defense went from something that was a obvious weakness that teams could exploit to LITERALLY the best in the league.

    He was exactly what the Steelers needed....especially since Cleveland is picking up 3,000,000 of his salary....... and is partly responsible for us being 5-2.

    Just for comparison.......how many games has McCourty helped the Clowns win?

    Asking for a friend.

  • Awesome... thanks for sharing.

    Saw Joe got his first pick yesterday... on a tipped ball he gathered in five or so behind the WR in his zone, AJ Green. There was a day when he manned up and shut down AJ... back when he was a #1 CB, not the #2 you are paying him to be??? $9mm per year thru 2019... kinda steep for a #2... basically about 30% over the money we offered him. And he's amassed 12 tackles and 2 assists.

    Then there's his replacement, McCourty... 3 INTs so far including a pick 6 plus 19 Tackles, a couple of which were big hits, and 5 Assists. And here's the kicker... he's signed thru 2018 for an average of $3mm/yr.

    Who would you say has been the better value to this point?

    Say hi to Joe for me...

    Glad to see that it worked-out for CLE as well.

    If PIT is paying too much for a number 2 CB, well that's par-for-da-course, as they have not done well at that position for a long time.

    Joe Haden got his first INT as a Steeler then kept the ball for his trophy case, or so I thought, when he ran off the field, and then he gave it to a fan wearing his number.

    WoW, yins knew how cool he was, I'm just learning.  He always had a good vibe about him.  I liked him when he was with CLE as well.

    The 7M dollar man picked up a ball laying on the WR's back that should have been caught in front of Haden. Than runs it to a fan 5 rows up that was showtime scripted(more likely family) ..Go Bang your head till next win🥷.Hide & Seek is a true Steel-queer celebration on this board

  • Good for Joe!!  He was a solid guy in cleveland... I cant say anything bad.

    The Steelers gave Haden the game ball.

    Commitment to mediocrity.

    I consider it a "Participation Trophy"...you know...to make the Stoolers FO feel like that did something right.

    They want to get that bad taste of Justin Gilbert out of their mouth.

    Much like a 6th place Little League team getting a trophy. 

    LOL...yeah, what a dysfunctional organization them Steelers.

  • Haden broke his leg.

    Quite a disappointment.

    He is such a cool guy and I was so happy for him.

    Kinda the story of his last few years in Cleveland.  His skills had diminished and he couldn't stay on the field.

    Didn't hear that.   As noted, playing in the zone was likely better for him at this point in his career.

  • Sashi wins again

  • This says he will miss "multiple weeks". 

    What is multiple weeks?  How long does it take to heal from a broken fibula  ("shin bone").

    Is he out for the year? Or could he be back for the playoffs?

  • Joe Haden and Playoffs involving the Steelers in the same sentence makes me sick.

    I didn't think they got anything for Haden, just cut him.

    That's what he does.

    He gets injured.

    Great pick up!

    Careful Z. Collins was hurt early in the season and now is gone, so the same could unfortunately be said about him.

    Well, he didn't have a bad injury history when we signed him, so we're just unlucky but the Steelers are stupid.

  • Seems like our whole team is consistently injured at all key positions

    5-6 weeks with the possibility of less. You aren't a professional athlete. He plans to be back for the playoffs if not sooner.
