What I saw the past two years was highsmith being over aggressive on runs to the opposite side and us continuously getting burned around his corner on play action bootleg. May look good when he makes those inside tackles but doesn’t seem worth it when the other team can take 15 yards on his side whenever they want it. Was hoping this would improve last year but still happened way too much.

    @Boo Kaufman *They pop off the screen ehhh. It’s a tech 🤓 geek trick!!!

    Nathan Tewkesbury

    @Boo Kaufman *I didn’t do it that time did I??? Okay I’ll do it this time*

    Boo Kaufman

    @Nathan Tewkesbury I’m asking how you do it? I don’t have any option on my phone that could make the font as dark as that or even change my font.

    Nathan Tewkesbury

    @Boo Kaufman *Idk man. Idk if I should give away all me secrets lil bro. Why do you want??*

    Boo Kaufman

    @Nathan Tewkesbury no big deal I just like the darker printing look

Daniel Evans

Hogey,, Your breakdowns always make want to go back 30 years and be playing again. I was an OLB.

Tell Highsmith to finish. He gets there, he just needs to now finish, finish means not only tackles and sacks but strip tackles and strip sacks! and he’ll be the next LT!

    jw1

    I’m sure Hoge telling him to finish will help things. LOL

    CZECH MATE

    It seems like he’s a half step behind TJ. He’ll get there.

    Your Dad

    Sounds like my wife, telling me to finish.

    Nathan Tewkesbury

    *Yea I predict double digit sacks for Alex in 2022. The return of Tuitt and Alualu will also help. He was there (in QB face) all year. He is further along than Bud Dupree was going into year 3*

Jimbo_Jumbo

I expect big things from him this season. Teams will start double and triple teaming TJ which should open up opportunities for highsmith!

    Luis D

    When it comes to opportunities expect the same for Myles Jack.

Jacob Melecio

MERRIL WILL YOU PLEASE SHOW THE WHOLE PLAY FIRST?? IT’S SO ANNOYING THE WAY YOU STOP AND START AND STOP AND START AND STOP AND START THE PLAYS!!!!! IT MAKES IT UNWATCHABLE!!!!!

    Jacob Melecio

    @jw1 you again? ? 😂😂😂 good day to be on YouTube… lol.. I mean you never know what he reads..

    jw1

    @Jacob Melecio LOL I knew you’d like that. I highly doubt he reads any of it, especially since you yelled at him the whole post, LOL

    Cope Hogan

    im with you on that. made it annoying. play the whole thing then break it down. let us try to see what he does before you even explain it.

    Jacob Melecio

    @Cope Hogan facts.

    Jacob Melecio

    @jw1 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

Terry Dixon

He just doesn’t have it. Fact

    Reginald Tucker

    Big fact!

    Ramon Beare

    He was a first year starter. You guys can’t be serious or you don’t know football. Dude is going to get better.

    Nathan Tewkesbury

    *Haha HighSmith “just doesn’t have it, Fact”….. Yea do not understand football, Fact 💯*

CZECH MATE

This Defense should be NASTY!!!!

    Nathan Tewkesbury

    *Yea total Nasty with 5 All-Pro’s on the D. Look 👀 around the NFL and I don’t see anything like that. NASTY!!!!*

Boo Kaufman

Hey Merrill. Your little sister wants her pants back. Geez dude come on. You are way too old to be wearing those Lululemon stretch pants.

    Nathan Tewkesbury

    *now that’s funny idc who you are 😂😂😂*

Ersin Pehlivan

Cool breakdown. Makes sense when you put it like that.

troy kidwell

His third year will be a breakout with 8-12 sacks

    Nathan Tewkesbury

    *Agree and I lean towards double digit*

Mark Wakeley

I agree 100%. Highsmith is fantastic.

Thomas Madden

Merril Hodge wearing leggings

chris ayres

thank you for this breakdown, getting pretty tired of having to defend AH’s play on several other steeler platforms as to how solid he is/has been since coming into the league as a 3rd rounder and to do a numbers/player comp to bud dupree, who was a first rounder in his first 2 seasons…just reminds me so much of lamarr woodley(players like james farrior would have to dare woodley to be great) but with twice the work ethic!!!!he is actually a player that i hope his numbers don’t outprice his 2nd contract, bcuz the steelers might not be able to afford him in 2024

Drayton Peterson

Thanks for these break downs! Love the details!

Rhonda Schnell

Alex is a good player for the Steelers. 🏈🏈

Olando Williams

He over ran the ball a lot too

Sylvain Normandin

He is a tremendous player i belive on him
