Kenny Pickett's hand size - Be Honest Now...

Hand size is a non issue.... The media always tries to find a way to strike up controversy...
What they don't mention is that, as far as I know, they use the NFL ball during senior bowl practices and the game itself, and Pickett threw 6-6 for 89 yds and a td....

 

Funny how his critics want to ignore the actual game, in which he threw the ball very effectively.

 

won't that muddy turf of heinz field hurt a running qb as well?

 

Btw...... The same criticism was pointed at Jow Burrow, who's hand size was only 9.... Pretty sure he's silenced his doubters

 

Yes!!!! My new career

 

Once again, I will point out that Dan Marino has small hands, too. That was why he held the ball closer to the tip, which was raised as a concern before he was drafted. Of course, that ended up being part of why he had such a quick release.

To be clear, I'm not comparing Pickett to Marino. I'm just questioning if the small hands thing is being blown out of proportion.

 

To be fair, you brought up the fumbles. It seems as if you are trying to move away from that now that others have shown that other quarterbacks in this rookie class fumbled as much or more the last two seasons.

 

I still call it a non issue..... We all know what Pennsylvania weather is like .....
It's not like we haven't seen the weather play a major factor in Ben's play as well... Pickett will struggle about as much as any QB when the great equalizer, mother nature rears her ugly head

 

Here I was thinking You had pillows for Hands. LoL

 

This

 

Ben played in weather as deep into a season as possible. Pickett was at home resting by the time the truly bad weather kicks in. Have 2 add that in your thought process.

 

You have women hands. So...perfect fit.
Just not looking at You as our next Qb is all. LoL

 

It's cool. We all are wrong at times, but some are like Fonzie, and can't say they are wro...wron...wro...wrong. LoL. I'm proud You don't fall under this category.

 

Is not a half inch a big difference?? I tell You what ....take , or add half a inch 2 any thing ,and see if You don’t notice, or if anyone else does. LoL

 

And if you were being fair, you'd see that I was responding to a Michael E's comment when he mentioned fumbling. In my response I compared him to 4 other top QBs in the draft. One of those was Malik Willis, your fave, and you came to his defense. That's how we got here.

That was the same post with the links to the regulation ball sizes showing that, when fully inflated, there's no difference.

 

My hand is just under 10"...

FWIW, Joe Burrow's hands measured only 9". Doesn't seem to be effecting him too much...

 

Same reason I hate the difference in the hash marks. It seems stupid.

 

I measured..... 9.5".... it never equated to a football career of any kind..... but I was an exceptional recreational soccer goalkeeper in the over 30's & 40's leagues of central Ohio for nearly 20 years.....
