Sam Howell >>>>>>>>> Ken Pickett


You must be drunk, I think he might be the one QB thats worse than KP
One guy is asked to win games, the other not to lose it. Howell has made way more NFL caliber throws than cubicle Ken has even attempted.

Well Daron Bland has one less TD than Kenny Pickett on the season now.

Now that is f'n sad and impressive at the same time.

Both will be backups or out of the league in 3-5 years.

That's probably true about half the current QBs.
Secure NHALS early and then go deep into the PLAYOFFS. :D :D :D

San Fran just ran right through Seattle.

Pete Carroll was beside himself.

Jordan Love has 600 yards, 5 tds - 0 int in the last 7 quarters.
And Kenny Pickett hasn’t thrown a pick since week 5.
He’s thrown some. They just weren’t caught by the other team.

SFs offense moves so quickly, there is a lot of coordination and smoothness.

The Steelers have none of that, they all look like they're moving in slow motion.

Warren is mostly an exception.

3 games today and all 6 teams are NFC. And all 3 games are going badly…

Sure, but right now Howell is way better than Pickett. Watch his highlights from this season.

Legit NFL throws. Come on dude.

This freaking San Francisco offense is so damn good.
Howard Griffith had to resort to chop-blocking him during the 1997 AFC Championship Game. An incredulous Kirkland asked Griffith, “Why do you have to use cheap tactics like chop-blocking?” Griffith replied “Why do you have to be a 300-pound linebacker?”

Yeah, that was nice.

I noticed, you were silent when he threw that ugly pick six and looked off in the 3rd quarter.

I know, you hate Pickett and look for every opportunity to rub it in the faces of his supporters but don’t forget, who’s responsible for selecting KP and putting him in position for all this fan hate?

I was eating dinner with my family. But cool comment. I didn’t see any of the 3rd quarter.

Seeing Trent Williams do what he does is the best example of pure football. It’s basically art. He’s unbelievable.

And I guess to answer your question, Kenny Pickett is for playing like a dickbag? Or maybe Kevin Colbert for drafting a 6-7th round low ceiling non-NFL ready 24 year old with the 15th pick? I dunno what you are getting at.

It’s quite simple.

Hate KP for not being good enough to play NFL ball. Not as if he’s not doing his best. He’s just not good enough, like many other players who fail in the NFL.

Don’t think for a moment, Art II and Tomlin didn’t have a heavy hand in drafting KP.

If anything should upset you, knowing that the Steelers are a poor culture for drafting and developing
players, especially QB’s should be enough.

So, the venom should be directed at management and coaching because they have failed the fan base.

How long have you been on this message board? I’ve been bemoaning management and coaching for over a decade now. I’ve been relentless. Kenny seems like a good dude I’ve said that over and over again, so it sucks he gets lost in the wash, but yeah, it’s Post-Ben Purgatory and unfortunately Kenny is front and center.

Still want them to win though and want to see them in the playoffs. Why not? Kenny isn’t going anywhere until 2025.

That’s right.

KP has regressed terribly. He plays scared and doesn’t look like he’s having fun. His performance is bad and he’s just not good enough at the moment. He may never be.

Whenever I see him fail, I despise the organization a little more. I have no doubt they’re not providing him with adequate NFL coaching, while being asked to run passing concepts that make it more difficult on QB’s.

Sadly, even if a Josh Allen type of player fell into the Steelers laps, I think that player would ultimately fail as well.

Until ownership/ HC gets a hard reset, Steelers will never be a serious contender.

Yes, Purgatory is exactly right.

They absolutely and completely fucked up the ‘21 and ‘’22 Drafts.

Also, I heard Dulac say that Art2 fired Canada.. I hope that affable goof has finally had enough and doesn’t extend Tomlin.

Most likely none of you are sick enough to be watching the Jets-Phins game. My observation: the Jets offense makes the Steelers offense look like the 49ers offense.

Tua threw two 1st half picks. Better shut his ass down the rest of the way.
Jibba Jabber’s offense hasn’t scored more than 7 1st quarter points in 84 consecutive games. An NFL record by far. A historic amount of “easin in”. We are lucky to have him.

This is the part people don't get.

Ben Roethlisberger, a sure fire first ballot Hall of Famer never seriously contended for a ring under Mike Tomlin the last decade of his career.

Mike Tomlin would have fucked up any QB's future.

Is there anything to be gleaned from the Jets, who are led by a defensive minded coach.

Other than they are QB-less.

Just saying, you can’t baby a QB to the point of all they do is dink and dunk in fear of a mistake.
