Between Johnson and Pickens performances these past few weeks its is very apparent that something is wrong in Pittsburgh,

I got curious and watched the play. Just horrible. All he has to do is screen the DB and it's a TD. He just throws his hands up and gets out of the way. If Tomlin doesn't make him inactive this week, he deserves to be fired.

Since I watch the 49ers every week, the contrast is amazing. You see Aiyuk and Deebo 40 yards downfield blocking. Jennings and Kittle are virtual OL men. No block, no rock is a big saying on the team. Night and day cultures

A few weeks earlier Johnson made no effort to recover a fumble.

During the third-and-2 play in the first quarter, Johnson barely got off the line when Kenny Pickett took the snap. He then stood by as running back Jaylen Warren rumbled past him in an attempt to move the chains and the ball popped out. DJ Turner II, who was defending Johnson, was the one who scooped up the football for the turnover.

Johnson said he didn't know the ball was live and "if I could make the play again, I'd jump on the ball."

Oh I agree there are issues in the locker room. WR room is chaos as they don’t like the offense or QB quality
