    Not playing any “stupid games” at all here. Just trying to get you to admit that you were wrong about Trubisky remaining as QB1 because of his exceptional practice performance. I’ll give Tomlin credit where due. He knew Pickett was a gamer while Trubisky was a practice stud. Some QBs, like Trubisky, just don’t have that “IT” factor when the lights go on. I think Pickett proved that he does. Is that so hard for you to admit?

    I think Warren has earned himself a prominent place in this offense for a long time to come. I believe wholeheartedly that his productivity benefitted Harris as well. Great 1-2 punch and we need to stick with it!

    One other thing I was right about. I have been saying that this team would rally to be 9-8 since the middle of the season. Yinz laughed at me. Who's laughing now? :lolol::yeehaw:

    I was maxed out at 6 wins and was wrong.

    I was also wrong in assuming the D would be elite. Had their moments but had plenty of stuggles.

    It’s nice that you’ve already anointed Pickett as the next franchise qb. What I see is 63% completion 7td and 9 interceptions. Those are very average numbers. We saw some good things from Pickett and we saw some bad. You’ve chosen him as our savior. Good for you. That’s certainly your prerogative. You can hang your hat on mythical bs like he’s got “it” to your heart’s content. I will remain grounded in reality and cautiously optimistic.

    What???
    Tremble....Have You been drinking. I don't want a rookie CB too make Qbs tremble....I want them to make a Qb hold onto the ball just a wee bit longer ....unlike what I seen when We played real Qbs.

    It’s extremely short-sighted to grade Pickett’s season on his stat line alone. I think any objective observer would say that he did some things this year that would indicate that has the makings of a franchise quarterback. Those back to back last minute comebacks and some of the big time throws he made in those games were extremely impressive for a rookie…or a seasoned vet for that matter. And I haven’t anointed Pickett as the next franchise quarterback yet. Read what I wrote above. He’s off to a great start but he’s not there yet. Im just happy that Tomlin made the decision to go with Pickett at halftime of the Jets game and then had the testicular fortitude to stick with him for the remainder of the year instead of waffling and going back to the practice pro-bowler when Kenny was struggling. As a result, Pickett was able to get invaluable experience that will serve him well going into year two.

    lol. Amazing coaches go into the season knowing the O is young and start the season with a simple offense.

    It took the real coaches 8 weeks to figure out the offense is young…. Bunch of dumb asses.

    I think, and hope that he’s good enough in their minds to keep them from going QB rd 1 again. He showed he can play even with a weak OC. The team itself was very average as well as below the line off and on this whole season so there’s that. Need to get some more pieces and some good depth and a brain that’s better equipped for chain moving and talent utilization and we might be more than okay for a bit at QB

    I thought SNOT would make at least one intelligent post this season but I was wrong

    I didn’t think Benny would make any but she snuck two in

    I think any success that Pickett had this season was in spite of Canada and not because of Canada. Tomlin’s most important hire of his tenure will be the OC hire this off season. It’s imperative that we bring somebody in who can help Pickett and the other young players step it up to the next level. And there is NO WAY the Steelers would even think about picking a quarterback in round 1 again this season. That would be the dumbest draft move in history. At the 17 pick, all of the top guys will be gone anyway.

    There isn’t a snowball’s chance in hell they’re going qb in round 1 this year. If things terribly in 2023 then maybe, but still unlikely. My guess is Pickett will get 3 more seasons to prove his worth

    Play action doesn’t work when you can’t run the ball. At the end of the season they ran the ball well yet no play action. It would take good coaching to figure that out hmmmm….
