OT: The Pittsburgher Thread: They Killed Kenny!

[Rossi Rat]

Go figure it wasn’t a first. Just punt it.

 

[Pengwins]

Rudolph time. Oh wait

 

[MrBrightside]

The officials have spent the last 40 minutes trying to make up for missing the call on the safety. Cleveland is getting every damn call since.

 

[Rossi Rat]

Insanely stupid.

Nice non sequitur. I asked you to tell me what you see in Pickett to think he is the guy. You gave me absolutely nothing. The best you could do is say the Steelers saw something in him, the same Steelers who according to you are holding him back because they are afraid of him throwing. Your entire response was to rip the Steelers. Not a damn thing about what Pickett does well or why anyone should think he deserves more responsibility. So yeah, go ahead and rip on my understanding of football. Still doesn't mean you gave an actual answer to a relatively simple question. Tell me what Pickett does well, if you can. If you can't, I think that says it all.

Maybe because they deserved to be ripped for how they handled him? Crazy thought.

They drafted a QB in the 1st round while being completely unwilling to let him go through growing pains and discover what does and doesn't work in the NFL. They absolutely deserve to be ripped for that. If they were such a win-now team and couldn't tolerate Pickett learning what works in the NFL, they shouldn't have drafted a QB in the first place.

The reality with this team is that they let Kenny play for about 4 games last year, which resulted in a bunch of turnovers as Pickett was trying to learn what works and doesn't work in the NFL. Rather than build on that and throw out the things that don't work, they just said "we want to win now, we can't have you turning over the ball at all". It's stupid and it's exactly why this team is going to toil in mediocrity.

What Pickett is today is a result of how they've handled him since he turned pro. This team is a win-now team and they don't have the patience for Pickett to develop. They absolutely deserve to be ripped on for that.

 

[NewAgeOutlaw]

They ran a qb sneak to the outside????

 

[Pengwins]

He got it easily. Almost at the 31

 

[RustyRazor]

Got the first down and a HIA

 

[DanielPlainview]

Do they have a the balls to run a PA with Money Mitch in the game

 

[since70]

I've raised the $20 to $25:for someone to shut the color guys mouth for the rest of the game. He's really annoying. He never shuts up.

 

[MrBrightside]

If they figure out a way to magically reverse this...

 

[Pengwins]

I don’t get it. He landed with the ball nearly at the 31.

 

[TNT87]

That's a first.

 

[wheelz87]

Swear to Christ if they overturn this

 

[Rossi Rat]

They’ll overturn it. Refs are on the Browns’ side today.

 

[Pengwins]

Will they re-spot to the 31 instead of 30?

 

[Peat]

Hand to heart, teams shouldn't have that long to decide whether to ask for a review.

 

[ziggyjoe212]

You really don't seem to have any understanding of football.



Cool? That doesn't change the fact that every one of his other numbers aren't better than Pickett.

QBR is pretty much the same. So Rudolph is better at getting TDs and has the same QBR.
And let's take a step back and realize that KP is being compared to a 3rd string QB.

 

[Josey Wales]

They ran a qb sneak to the outside????

Because the Center BLOWS GOATS

 

[MrBrightside]

Hand to heart, teams shouldn't have that long to decide whether to ask for a review.

They only did because Pickett was shaken up.

 

[NewAgeOutlaw]

Good fight by Kenny there.

 

[since70]

They might have the slowest developing plays in the NFL

 

[MrBrightside]

The Warren offense was working too well so they had to negate it by featuring Harris.

 

[Rossi Rat]

I forgot they have Z. Smith too. Dude is very good.

I get that the Steelers suck and are destroying him. I am asking you, with your much greater knowledge of football, to tell me what it is that you see in Pickett to think he is going to be the guy moving forward, should the Steelers stop sucking and destroying him. I don't see it, but as you said I am an idiot about football. I was hoping that you could let me know what you see. So far you have given me nothing.
