Sharp take
Sharp SixStartA coach saying he believes in his $100 million receiver is not news, it's obligation. Metcalf is rostered everywhere and owned at 100%, so nothing here changes his role. Pittsburgh sits as a 3.5-point dog in a mediocre 42.5 total, which is the actual reason for the quiet stat line, not confidence. Start him like you were already planning to and ignore the press conference filler.
