    Pickett had 713 snaps with the Steelers

    You may be new here but we don’t tolerate bull**** fake news misinformation or outright lies here

    No trolls either

    We are already having enough trouble training @Joel Buchsbaum@Joel Buchsbaum

    And before you start you don’t need to post clickbait anything from X or whatever you read in SteelersDepot we have enough Numbnut covering that

    If I have offended you in any manner please let me know and I will be certain to respond

    You have not offended me. Picketts snaps with the Steelers don't count as it was a completely dysfunctional offense.

    And you really can't judge anything by his few backup stats anywhere else either.

    I hope I haven't offended you either.

    FYI: When you see green color that is a member being sarcastic. As for me I just put a wink at the end of sentence.

    That brought back a nightmare of a memory. I believe it was a night game against the Pats. Waited all day for it. Right from the start Brady threw quick passes one after the other. We were on our heels 2 minutes into the game:(

    Who cares Arians didn't win anything until Brady carried him to a Super Bowl win.

    Pickett had 25 starts with the Steelers, he would've had more but he couldn't stay healthy.

    He also had the #1 pick in Jameis Winston who threw over 30 interceptions in one season :eek:.

    Crazy he was able to win 7 games with that!

    Imagine Kenny Pickett with 30 interceptions in a season

    It's a good topic. Took a stab at looking at pass attempts under center vs shotgun (I don't have plays specifically labeled "Play Action" and I think the definition can vary depending on the website).

    This is five years of games. Left axis = UC-Shotgun Yards Gained/Attempt (blue bars); right axis is total air yards passing under center (red line).

    While not perfect, the air yards under center explain a lot about the poor UC passing. Too much dinking and not enough throws down field. Is this because of a janky OL maybe?

    sure,because he would not been able to be on pace for 5000 passing yards and 33 TD like Winston even with the supporting cast Winston had in 2019

    But the problem that Winston had in Tampa Bay had nothing to do with Arians.He is maybe the dumbest QB in NFL history,before or after 2019
