Pickens over DK this week.

As long as Magic Mike is driving the bus

 

Who needs young, emerging talent like Pickens when you can claim 35-year-old receivers off waivers. I hope everyone in Pittsburgh boos the organization when the Steelers are on the clock for the third round pick they got for Pickens because the front office deserves it.

 

Did you read it? He didn't claim to have any inside knowledge. He was speculating because Pickens is gone, but the chaos remains. He was basing it on the talk about receivers missing meetings and running incorrect routes. Meanwhile, Pickens is thriving in Dallas. There seems to be a lack of accountability with the Steelers. Sure, Pickens is a jackass, but maybe all he needed was a better environment. If that is true and he found that in Dallas, that speaks volumes about Tomlin losing control of things in Pittsburgh.

 

On Monday I’ll start a thread Thielen over Pickens this week

 

I don't think any of the current receivers are frequently late or crashing out on the sideline and showing up late to a game like Pickens did.

 

Frequently late??? Being reported that Steeler players this year are just not showing up at all. Skipping out early and heading home.

 

I guess you missed Rodgers talking about receivers missing meetings.

The only negative thing that was actually quoted from a coach/player has been when pickens showed up late to the KC game (which Tomlin has people get there earlier than what all the rest of coaches do). Even doubling down Kahn said directly after DK was added we were going to use both pickers and DK, and the move was a rare one to where you jumped on it.

Besides that, everything else was rumors, feelings, opinions..... you know, like your dumb thought that watt wanted to be traded because he held up a peace sign.

 

Ok you convinced me to go there with a sign that says, "dumbest trade ever and steelers or the media made a lot of things up".

 

You do realize you're talking to a guy who believed watt wanted to be traded because watt posted an Instagram picture of a peace sign.

 

I'm still waiting for you to post where I said that or stop lying about me.

 

I guess you missed where Brooke Pryor said attendance wasn't what Rodgers was talking about .

 

No line, old QB and mediocre OC will do that to you. Cowboys have the best offense in the league and idk how the hell they have had a good O line for 10 years straight.

 

The steelers don't use slant in their offense

 

HAHA
ONE TRICK PONIES
SO SAD!!!!!!

 

Tomlin vindicated tonight after INT on slant off Pickens hands, PI penalty, then pouts and jogs a route which almost gets it picked.

 

Recently I was listening to a local Pittsburgh sports show and someone said that there never was a plan to have both DK and Pickens, that they had already decided to get rid of Pickens, and that's why they got DK.

 

I don't doubt it, but that is where they screwed up.

 

That's not what he said. He said "When there's film sessions, everybody shows up, and when I check to a route, you do the right route," Rodgers said. "... We have our meetings every week. We have other opportunities outside of the facility, and look forward to seeing all the boys there."

I took that he's meaning outside the facility. Extra sessions with him.I mean he's the QB if he needs extra sessions then call it!. They were in camp all summer he was not!

 

to me is not about production here. It wouldn't have been helping to open the offense more.

 

I don't get the hate for tonight. Dude been lighting it up 90% of the games. Is he not allowed to have a bad night?

"Pickens’ incredible season set a high standard that he didn’t meet on Thursday. He had five catches on nine targets. His 37 yards receiving were the second-lowest of the season and the lowest since the season-opening loss to the Philadelphia Eagles. In addition, he was called for two penalties: an offensive pass interference and a facemask.

Pickens was asked this week about his success on slant routes. It’s a route, in theory, that can be prevented with different types of leverage or different coverages. Pickens confidently said he was impervious to such adjustments, saying his success on that route was inevitable."
