How anyone can make assessments in OTA’s and go on the air and say that crap is just looking for attention and/or to stir the pot.
What was Kenny’s record as a starter?
At one time that may have been true, but the Steelers have certainly shown everyone around the league that "the standard" that Mike Tomlin constantly refers to has changed and that once proud Steelers organization is starting to look as inept as the Browns once were. Tomlin's handling of the teams QB situation since the retirement of Roethlisberger has been horrendous. Not only has he failed to give the players he drafted (Rudolph and Pickett) a chance to be successful, he has signed and traded for players past their prime (Trubisky, Fields, Wilson) and has allowed Aaron Rodgers to hold the organization hostage waiting for his decision. The Browns are on their way up out of the basement and the Steelers have now taken their spot.
He was 12-3 in his final 15 starts as a Steeler when he played the majority of the game.
Most of us are not contending he’s a good nfl QB. We just contend that this place was a mess when he was here and we are smart enough to know that football is more than just the QB.
You sound like ESPN trying to use stats to support a point. I could care less about the number of wins and losses a team has over within a certain amount of time. The reality of it is, if you can't see that the current Cleveland Browns "QB room" is better then the Steelers, then you are just being a closed minded Yinzer. Even if the Steelers were to sign Aaron Rodgers today, the Browns would still have a better group of QB's on their team. Here's the current QB's on both teams, which group would you want for now and down the road...
Eviscerate…the Steelers give you contract extensions and a statue for that record.

I think most actually just called out the fact Fields/Wilson did nothing as an “upgrade”
Remind me . . . how many wins did Steelers have last year? How many wins did the Cleeve Brownies record? Um ha.
The Eagles are 10X the franchise of most NFL teams. Their front office are savants. They spend money where they need to and their drafts are the best in the league. They built their defense from the draft (affordable) and spent big money on their offense. As far a Kenny in Cleveland, I wish him the best. I like for former Panthers to be successful. Don't get all the hate.
Brock purdy would have yielded a 5th round return if he played in the Steeler offense. This isn’t hard.
absolutely. They have a cheaper capable backup for their offense. Again, it’s business.
You don’t follow roster building in the NFL do ya?
I have no idea. He’s already a higher priced player, who if ends up as a reserve, will be expendable. That’s how it works.
Don’t make generalizations. I’ve never said that. My position is clear. I’m not judging any QB whose majority of his body of work was under Tomlin, Canada, and that pathetic talent around him.
Oh come on. I’m not even going to respond to this. You’re better than this.
And Ben was a HOF player who was allowed to call plays at the line. No QB after Ben has been allowed to do that…until the 2 minute offense late in games. I can’t believe you’re using a HOF QB with Ben’s tenure to make your point. Are you drinking? Just let it go.
