I've posted on this site and the old scout one under the same handle since it's inception and this is the first time I've been called a troll. I've been called many things, but troll is a new one.
Dulac was after him from Day 1 and never acknowledged that the F’s he gave Canada and the WRs translated into F for the QB.
Good news is Justin Fields is an expert at that.
No doubt he can run! Can he throw accurately and win games?
Has nothing to do with the OP. You just had a draft. Team still needs a bunch of pieces. You're moving into rookie camp and OTA's. Season isn't that far off. I just don't understand why we keep seeing Steeler media coverage about a guy that is gone. It's like following the Facebook posts of a buddy's ex-wife that he threw out of the house for being a deadbeat.
Warren might have been enjoying the party a bit too much since he's also claiming that the ST Coach wants Fields to return kickoffs.
Kenny could have silenced all that by playing well enough to seem worthy of a 1st round pick, he rarely did, and it wasn't everyone else's fault.
Russell Wilson is a business partner in the company that bought the stadium naming rights? He was destined to wind up here then.
Based on that I’m guessing The qb rooms were pretty bad in Chicago and Denver
Most of the national experts think the QB doesn't have to be even "good" for the QB room to be much better in Pittsburgh. Kenny was historically bad as a starter.
Come on man, Nate Peterman was historically bad as a starter. Pickett was a guy that played below average mostly because he did not throw many TDs.
Here's where Kenny really fell down. When they asked him if sitting out if he is learning anything and he responded with a terse "no". Could you imagine Sidney Crosby responded like that?? Hell, Larry Fitzgerald? No.
lol. So was the Ol and OC. Like I said let’s see how good the qb room is with the prima Donna Russ.
more confirmation of the nothing burger. Thanks!

Listen, I'm not a Tomlin fan but if they thought Kenny was the driving force behind their wins, they wouldn't have went shopping for QB's. Wins imo aren't really a good QB stat.
We play in an era now where it's easier then ever to put the ball in the endzone with the rules and scheme seen in the league. Throwing TD's or the lack thereof is a pretty good indicator of how well someone is playing the position.
I saw all of them. Kordell made the freaking pro bowl. He was nowhere near what I would call a great QB but Kenny isn't even one of the top 25 QB's in the league. He's thrown 13 TD's in 2 seasons. In Kordel's 1st season as a starter, he threw for 21 TDs and rushed for 11 in his 1st year as a season - 32 total TD's.
Huh? You ever watch Peyton Manning in his pre-game routine? You ever see Tom Brady talk to his receivers on the sideline?
Here's the thing.. I took my youngest son up to Latrobe the past 2 years to show him training camp. It just seemed Kenny had to work so hard and often overcompensated to push the ball. I've always thought he struggled with certain throws, especially ones that require touch. Even though it's been beaten to death, the small hands thing is real. Finally, I listen to JT O'Sullivan quite a bit. He's every bit as harsh with Pickett as he was with Canada and prior to that with Whipple. He has maintained that Kenny is very average when it comes to fundamentals. His footwork is inconsistent and he doesn't see the field very well. When I left Latrobe, I honestly thought Kenny's ceiling is probably like a Ryan Fitzpatrick if he has a ton of talent around him.
I laid out the reasons why. I’m not going to explain them again. Reread my post.
You gave zero reasons why Kenny couldn't help his receivers with route running. Your reason that Kenny was only here for 2 seasons is bunk.
I think a lot of people just enjoy the diversion. Oh, hey, the backup RB is shooting his mouth off now. Buried in the interview is an admission that nobody was listening to Canada and treated him like a joke. How long was that going on? So there's all this strife in the locker room and several players pretty much quit on plays or played their position the way they wanted to. Like, how the heck doesn't anyone go to Tomlin and ask him why he continues to allow a circus atmosphere to prevail? And this isn't exactly a new problem. Big time leadership issues with this club.
Again, Kenny Pickett in less than two years isn’t going to be where Russell Wilson is. It’s as clear as 2+2=4. So I have no problem with what our #2 back says. It’s the way it should be and it’s not the least bit eyebrow raising, But you felt the need to double down on the obvious.
Manning was the #1 pick, Wilson a third rounder, and Brady 6th. That's kinda what I was getting at, albeit poorly.
