    I don’t know, doesn’t play for us but since you brought him up that was a guy that obviously needs to sit a year however there is nothing wrong with going the Hurts rout and having a rough year while gaining valuable experience. He’s doing much better this season.

    Pickett doesn’t have those concerns, was more polished than Willis. Should definitely be starting but I am arguing with a guy that couldnt see TJ’s obvious talent coming out and told me he wouldn’t be any good. Good call, Strummer :thumbs up:

    don’t you dare rewrite history. I never said he wouldn’t be any good. I was concerned about his knee and limited time at the position. I have even happily admitted to being wrong. Thank you very much

    Except that, sadly, it will not happen. Well.. barring an injury to Mitch anyways. Only way Kenny gets the start is after the bye at this point; Week 9. I initially did state Week 5 at the earliest but I doubt even that will happen.

    Of course they’re not the norm and it remains to be seen whether or not Pickett will be the Steelers next great quarterback. The point I was making is that he seems to have the physical ability and intangible qualities that give him a legitimate shot of becoming a very good to great NFL quarterback. The competition he faced in college is irrelevant. It’s time for the Pickett era to begin!

    You argued strongly against taking him in the first, I don’t remember what exactly was said but you obviously didnt think he would be very good if you didnt want him in the first.

    If you are going to sling it, prepare to get it slung back. Watt already proved you wrong, I will still be right about Willis. Don’t know why people argue with me about talent :taunt:

    I'm a Tomlin defender on here, but I think He's being stubborn. Of course KP maybe sucking in practice, but Trubisky is sucking in real games. So.....:shrug:

    Current QB Starters in the league per college conference:

    ACC - 7
    B12 - 6
    SEC - 5
    P12 - 5
    B10 - 4
    MWC - 2
    Ind - 1
    FCS - 2

    Using the ACC against Pickett is a rather ignorant argument.

    Hey, where is everyone getting this about Kenny Pickett sucking in practice? Are there still people reporting on current practice stats?

    So, will we get reports on the number of snaps each QB is getting next week? I am still hoping to see Kenny against the Jets, because right now every team we face in October is currently 2-0.

    Pickett won't do squat with this team. This is not the '04 Steelers with Bettis, Hampton, Farrior, Polamalu, Ward, Burress and Staley.

    To Coach T…

    “He who hesitates is lost”. And this entire season is going to be lost unless you put a quarterback in there who can read defenses and effectively distribute the ball to open receivers! Time for Pickett!

    He's got a ton of offensive weapons just waiting in the wings.

    This team needs a spark, something, anything. Why not see what they have in Pickett? I don't believe Trubisky is winning many games this year. He isn't getting abused behind this line, so what is the coaching staff afraid of? Let the young man get his opportunity and experience.

    the press isn’t allowed to attend practice after training camp ends. The point is we do not know. The only people that do are the people there- players,coaches, trainers etc. All the talking heads on espn, nfl network etc are just speculating. They’ve got no more information than what we saw in the preseason.

    Holy crap I'm not going back through all of them.
    K. Mond , Feleipe Franks, Matt Corral, and M. Willis. Those have been some You wanted. Oh ,and Trubisky.
