    This happens a lot in the NFL. AJ Brown did something similar, Davonte Adams whited and got his coach fired... Today's NFL is just this way, ESPECIALLY at the WR position. Do I wish he wasn't acting like a child? Sure. But I definitely would rather have him on our team than not.

    @AB84

    The Steelers are Known for putting players against each other…… James Harrison vs Lamar Woodley AB vs Emmanuel Sanders Sha(“”””””” Pickens vs Diontae?

    Agreed, and as of right now so would I. Hell His block on T. Edmunds last night was just worth having Him on the team

    It would have been more if Pickens had bothered to drag his left foot on what should have been a touchdown.

    I’m not saying Pickens is right, but so many receivers need to get their numbers to avoid melting down.

    Yeah that, plus the overthrow that Pickens would've been out for a big play, plus the miss to Robinson that would've been a TD, and the miss to Austin that was a walk in TD... I get there will be misses, but like 3-4 throws is the difference between 160 and a TD and 280 and 3 TD's. Most of those were squarely on KFP, the toe drag solely on Pickens

    They need their numbers to get paid too. Poor QB play could hinder his value when its time for his contract.

    I know. I just find his childishness even more annoying given that he cost his team a touchdown.

    Part of his latest childishness could be his inability to own up to his role in his personal ill fortunes last night. You could see it after the play. Instead of looking like a guy who knew he messed, up he looked defiant, like it was KP’s fault that he didn’t complete one of the easiest toe drags he’s faced in his career.

    He did seem like He was mad at someone other than Himself afterwards. LoL. Did You see KFP have to go get him a few times, and bring Him into the huddle while He was running His mouth to the Titans???

    Pickens has the potential to be a major league head case, but I do understand his frustration with Canada’s lackluster offense. He also needs to understand that he missed an opportunity to be a contributor last night by failing to get his second foot down in the end zone. That was about as poor an effort by a receiver in the end zone as I’ve seen in quite some time. Lazy.

    And Pickens had two 100 yard receiving games prior to the Jacksonville game, he's immature and acting like a punk, he should've had a TD but he was more worried about his celebration than getting his feet in bounds :rolleyes:.

    I was listening to a Steelers podcast, and they said Pickens had been running lazy routes prior to the missed TD catch.

    It was Robinson. You can see Pickens in this video jogging off in the background without coming over to celebrate. Wow, that is bad. DJ’s first TD in over a season and doesn’t even come over to celebrate with him.

    The Steelers were fortunate that the Eagles sent Edmunds packing just in time for us to play against him.

    I could never be a pro sports coach. On top of not having the ability, I also couldn't deal with the entitlement and diva ****.

    I'd cut everybody that did stuff like that and I'd end up with a team of 12 guys. Just 1 of 78 reasons I'll never be a pro coach I guess
