    You need to put your hope in Rooney.

    He made Tomlin put Picket in a uniform on gameday as the backup QB, now he needs to make Tomlin have Picket take the field as the starting QB.

    Never bought the cut and paste error on the Depth chart BS; Tomlin was saying.

    What does Rooney have to do with Pickett being the backup?

    I enjoy a good conspiracy theory myself. Art Rooney demanding Pickett be the back up is not one I'm buying. It just doesn't make sense.

    I believe Pickett is still waiting on his physical to be allowed to play.

    What has me worried is that DK keeps saying Tomlin is committed to MT for the season. And I believe Tomlin is that stubborn (see Green, Kendrick)

    Who or what, caused to Tomlin to redo his depth chart that named Picket the backup?

    When the Steelers released their Depth chart for the start of the season Picket was the 3rd string QB; he would be in street clothes on game day. A few days later "Poof", Rooney and Tomlin both called for the press. Tomlin announced that he had changed his depth chart and Pickett was the backup, and Rooney announced the retirement of the #32.

    Something or Someone changed Tomlin's mind about his depth chart; I don't believe it was a Cut & Paste error. I believed he was called into the principals office and was told what he was going to do.

    I am waiting for the next "Poof" moment when Tomlin announces his next cut and paste error and Kenny Pickett is the team's starting QB for the next game.

    I believe Art Rooney drafted Kenny Pickett.
    I believe Art Rooney made Kenny Pickett the backup QB to start the season.
    And I now believe Art Rooney will make Kenny Pickett the starting QB.

    Only way I could get excited going forward is to see Pickett behind center. Then we'd also get to see once and for all if Canada is good or not instead of possibly wasting all of next year giving Canada a chance with Pickett.

    Pickett will make Freirmuth the weapon that he is. It's an utter crime right now that Muth and Pickens are basically ghosts.

    So I should blame Art Rooney for the Steelers not drafting Tyler Smith or Tyler Linderbaum in the first round?

    I am not buying the clerical error bit either, but you are making a lot of assumptions.

    I disagree. Rooney has handed the keys over to Tomlin. He trust him way too much. I don't believe the clerical error either. I'm not sure who made the call after the backlash.

    All I know is this is going to be the best chance to see what Pickett has this year. Tomlin isn't smart though so he will ride Mitch until he crashes and burns. Then throw Pickett to the Bucs or Dolphins defense. Watch.
