Despite the Pittsburgh Steelers being 6-4 and currently in the AFC playoff picture, frustrations are beginning to mount in the locker room. More specifically, Steelers running back Najee Harris was fed up after his rough Week 11 performance and the 13-10 loss to the Cleveland Browns.
“There’s just a lot of stuff that just goes around that you don’t see,” Harris said, per ESPN. “I guess I’m trying to say it’s just, I’m just at a point where I’m just tired of this s**t,” Harris added.
Harris is referring to the Steelers ineptitude on offense and their inability to drive the ball down the field consistently. The Steelers rank 28th in the NFL in both points per game (16.6) and total yards per game (280.1). Second-year quarterback Kenny Pickett has struggled mightily which has negatively impacted the entire offense, including Harris.
The Steelers were unable to win in Week 11 on a day when their defense only gave up 13 points. That is a tough pill to swallow, especially for a player on the offensive side of the field who feels they could’ve done more to change the outcome of the game such as Harris.
Even though the Steelers are 6-4 and find themselves in the postseason if the season were to end today, Harris is not satisfied with how he and the offense have performed.
“You could do two things,” Harris said. “You could look at the record and say, ‘Ok, we’re still good right now.’ Or we could look at the record and be like, ‘If we keep playing this type of football, how long is that s**t going to last?’
“Winning how we did, it’s not going to get us nowhere,” Harris added.
