This literally had to be on purpose by Pickens.
And who else?
This entire team is fucked in the head.

Everyone is saying trade Pickens
Who in the Christ is going to give them more than a 6th or 7th for him? He’s a head case. The league knows it.
With the 6th or 7th round pick the Steelers can draft another sibling of a player already on the team. Team Nepo for Life
Name a top 10 or 15 receiver in the NFL. Now envision him on this team the past two years, in GP's shoes. It all ends the same. Why have a receiver at all? Just put some 300 pounders out there as multiple tackle eligibles and really give Tomlin what he likes.
Take any top receiver and absolutely bury him in this offense for 2 years, he's as frustrated as GP. I'm not justifying Pickens's tantrums, but I certainly understand.

Muth being the offensive star of the game is pretty funny.
He has lead in his cleats. And I mean, how is he the focus all of a sudden.
Art Smith has millions from his Dad, can he just go use that to live on. He has to be able to afford prime real estate and the best architects but nooooo, he's in the NFL for some reason acting like he knows what he's doing.
I’ve been hard on Freiermuth but he played great tonight and I feel really bad for him on that drop.
You feel bad for him?
Haha!
Yep.
He was the offense tonight. Made a bunch of nice plays and the ball was on him just as he got his head around.
Freirmuth played his ass off. Pickens played like he wants outta Dodge.

Oh please. He’s soft as fuck
He played really well tonight.
Terrible drop but the ball was on him as soon as he got his head around.
Friermuth isn’t the problem.
But Pickens. My God.
Pickens was so bad it almost looked on purpose.
I thought the same. Was Pickens pouting tonight? Did he have money on the Bengals?

Embarrassing.
Gonna have a very different looking team next year.

Oh I bet they look the exact same. 9-8 next year? Run the ball excessively for about 3 yards a pop,
Beat me to it

Two of those balls were punched away on good plays by defenders
And last one looked like Wilson’s fault

I don’t give a fuck what offense Pickens is playing in, you’re paid a bunch of money (with a huge contract on the line) and he intentionally fucked his team tonight.
Russ was literally pleading with Pickens to turn it up.
Fuck Pickens and his frustration.

I don't know why people think Pickens was supposed to drift inside toward the safety in a two minute drill at that. He fucked his route and yes, I think it was intentional.

This game was so far from normal football I'm not sure it wasn't some bizarre AI.

Pickens never drops balls like that and he is literally credited with 3 drops tonight.
Also that ball was very likely supposed to lead Pickens to the sideline because they needed to get OOB. Pickens inexplicably went inside.

If all you said is true, and it very well may be true, it still doesn’t create a trade market for Pickens where the Steelers get anything more than a 6th or 7th. What are they going to do with that, pick another Heyward brother, or maybe an Edwards brother??? Maybe there’s another Watt brother out there they can draft
Dino Tomlin is in the draft this year …..

Well after today 4 straight Loss. I can figure that Dan Moore played his last game here in Pittsburgh. GP needs to be traded tonight performance was just non interesting to play. The playcalling sucked most of the game. Smith and Tomlin playcalling sucked. The other issue for a veteran Qb Wilson must have went to the same school of time management. It the Steelers give him a new deal anything more than 10 million they are nuts. I would clear out the Qb room unless fields come back cheap. The WR needs a makeover.

If he fucked up the route then that’s on him …. Obviously

Pickens will be a convenient target of blame for a total team shit show
Heyward, Boswell, P Wilson and maybe Muth can keep,their heads up … the rest and the coaches can piss off
Arthur smith especially can fuck right off
