George Pickens played limited snaps due to discipline?

    I miss the days of Hines Ward and Randel El… why are we putting up with these cry babies.

    GP is making a business decision with his antics and subpar play. Steelers need to make a business decision of their own.

    LOL. I'm not saying Mason was Tom Brady. But he is at least Neil O'Donnell or Jeff Hoestettler or Trent Dilfer. Basic competence, certain strengths (hitting people in stride) *can* be inspiring compared to the trash we have had (Pickett, Mitch, Fields). Like I said before, hopefully Wilson has something left. We get a freebie basically since Denver is paying him to stay away.

    And it proves his intelligence that he wanted to move on, frankly. I'd climb out of a burning dumpster, too.

    And what's Mason doing with the Titans besides sitting the bench?

    Putting heat on Levis. The first time Mason played for them was the first time they'd scored 30+ points in years. Who was the QB the last time we scored 30+ points? M.R. But it's water under the bridge---we're stuck with what we have. I guess I'm more concerned with our talent evaluation/coaching/priorities than any individual player.

    Mason would struggle with the Steelers beat up OL.

    This should put an end to this foolish post that it was discipline and Tomlin

    Maybe, but 1) Pickens still remains a head case; and 2) Pickens also remains the best receiver on the team, so limiting his snaps would seem more counter-productive than productive.

    I don't remember if it was his eye black, but it was something he had on. I believe it was for His father. It may have been eye black. I only remember him getting a fine for it.

    Per Thor:

    Yep. During an October about ten years ago he wrote IRON HEAD on his to honor his dad, who passed after battling brain cancer.

    Give them time

    Those decisions are usually made in the off season

    And he may still be repairable from what other players are saying

    I wasn’t hearing the same feedback about DJ in the end
