All true but the reason we have not seen him, except for the last two games in which he was inactive is that he was on the Covid list. Is t that right? So he has basically been on the shelf with Covid and has had hardly any practice or preseason. Should we really be surprised he hasn’t been in any games yet? So what you outline should be completely expected given the situation.
My guess is he will get every chance to play now. His practice reps will increase significantly.
Frankly, I don’t want him for Pittsburgh. They have excelled in making their defense complicated, and if he is struggling at all in that regard, he doesn’t need to be out there. They will eat him alive.
In general that is probably true. Work him into some packages perhaps, but starting him in this game is likely risky. Ty will start at LT and Kelly at RT.
One thing which has to help is that the Titans have studied the Steelers and have a gameplan already in place.
Extra time to prepare is always good.

They also lost devin bush inside LB for the season , might offset some of T. Lewan loss.
These studies don’t show anything.
Here’s a challenge, show me an OL who tore his ACL while wearing a brace.
Indeed. But now, with Sambrailo in there, I'm hoping it gives the coaches more time to figure out how to get him help.
The Steelers now have to account for Brown and Davis too.
If only we had drafted one that could pass block.
Oh. No, in this case I was referring to Sambrailo.
I was way wrong too. Never saw or heard of him before so I thought he was a rookie. Guy has 6 years.
So, I hope the 6 year vet is ready.

I think he still has the opportunity to help.
His off the field junk is stupid but it’s not like he’s the first NFL guy to do it.
He was a first round pick from a guy with a pretty good draft record. I’m sure wilson still needs to get in “game shape” (or whatever Clowney’s excuse is) but I expect him to be at least a serviceable T based on JRobs selection.
Nope. I was just way off on sambrailo.
Is Miami looking into hiring BoB?
I mean, every player has to step on the field and prove they can play. I think most of the hate Wilson gets is from the off field stuff. We haven't seen him play. He may be a beast. He may be a bust. We may have to find out soon.
I expect a lot more screens. We tried to force some against Houston. Didn't really work, but I like the attempts. Art can get creative. Also, even before Henry's OT catch, I've noticed that last couple games he's generally been open on those swing passes. A handful of those coming near the goal line. He's just never one of the first reads. I'll expect to see more targets for Henry and big Mac out of the backfield.
We don't seem to run a lot of draws. Am I wrong in that? Good time to throw some in.
I don't know why... it's a terrible idea... but I really really want to see Wilson line up as the eligible tackle and catch a TD. Then put him in at FB and run him up the gut.
Sounds as if the need for surgery is still up in the air based on this Vrabel quote in the Tennessean:
"Vrabel added that Lewan would be placed on injured reserved soon, and wouldn't speculate about whether the left tackle could return for a potential playoff run"
( Titans left tackle Taylor Lewan suffers torn ACL)

He would make a great GM for them. In fact, I propose he rotate through the AFC and handle trades for all but the Titans in the coming year.
I think you could have something if we lined up his big ‘ol fanny at the goal line.
What was Saquan Barkley's injury everyone expected to cost him months that he came back after like 2 weeks in 2019?
