    (typing early 3rd Q, vs Bungles) has cost us at least 7, and maybe 11 points today.

    he is a fool.

    Let's hope he matures sooner rather then later.

    They are really dropping the hammer on him though. Same with JPJ, this resonates with how they did Harrison. That was not worth a flag, especially after they didn’t call the hit to the head on the pick six.

    Tomlin needs to institute a new rule. Finish play, hand the ball to the official, that’s it, no gestures, no sign language, no grabbing your crotch, just give the ball the over to the officials and walk back to the huddle. He’s an old school coach, institute some old school policies for the entire team, period!

    Porter I would duct tape his arms to his body during practice, some old school kung Fu Sh*t, make him defend by moving his feet. Very undisciplined young players….

    He seems to be immature but I expect the silly penalties will become less frequent in time

    They have an interesting decision to make on him in the offseason.He is the best skill player they have and they almost have to pay him at this stage but there is something not quite ‘right’ with him.

    Pickens and Joey need a locker room blanket party by the rest of the team, LOL.

    It's gotta be maturity - or lack thereof. Dude, you have the talent/skill to beat the world, let that speak for itself. Stop the stupid playground mentality bs.

    We can solve both the Porter and Pickens problems by drafting Travis Hunter next year. Yes it’s extremely optimistic and unlikely but doable

    I wonder if a team will actually let him play both ways in the NFL?

    in my world we call it “A Come to Jesus” meeting. These selfish players are going to cost the team. In NE, Brady would have dressed him up and down on the sidelines in front of everyone, Cam talking to him BS…

    Topic is correct ... with using both adjectives for Pickens.

    Training collar in Pickens’ size (if they sell them), and shock the living **** out of him every time he does the habeus tauntus.
    Same for JPJ if he gets too handsy, but on a lower setting since he does it in the line of duty while Pickens does it out of lack of self control.

    These were the knocks on both players coming out of college... it's why they both fell; Pickens had maturity issues and Porter was grabby. So far, they've been worth their pick selections.. But that can change if they don't change their ways soon.
