Wow

So much better than Kenneth it hurts to watch

It’s not even close

I really am beginning to lean strongly towards the idea that the Steelers took Kenneth in order to lose a lot of games this year and next

Of course. Why wouldn't they burn a 1st round pick solely with the intention of throwing the following season away? Clearly Kevin Colbert would be on board with that brilliant strategy in his final year as GM. Then Tomlin would have no issue of going along with it and lying about why he drafted the kid, inserted him into the lineup and is staying with him the rest of the year. Cudos to you for sniffing out that master plan.
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?”

Arm strength and accuracy wise it’s very apparent Malik is a lot better

I think having Derek Henry and this o-line will make any QBs life a lot easier.

He has some wheels though for sure.

As I just said in another thread, I was just thinking, let's build a line like the Titans have, let's get a RB like Henry, let's run the offense the Titans run, then let's see how Kenny looks.

Get back to me when Najee is averaging over 10 yards a carry in one half. Playing QB is a lot easier when the ILBs are having to crash the line and are still getting creamed.

I don’t need to watch Malik Willis look totally whatever to know that Pickett has looked like dogshit.

Kenny has been ass. It’s not like it’s an either/or thing. Both these guys look like crap.

This is the thing that baffles me the most, I remember 3-4 years ago ArtII wanted PS to run the ball better, with that in mind why haven’t they spent any high picks on the o-line since then.

It's hard playing QB in the NFL when your your RBs don't even break 50 yards in a game and your Oline gets mauled. Just ask Josh Allen today.

Deep into the 3rd quarter and Willis has targeted WR's zero times, and yet somehow Tits are winning in Arrowhead running a junior high offense, just goes to show smash mouth football still works.

Willis is trash. And his accuracy is easily one of his worst traits. That guy makes Lamar look like Chad Pennington.

Exactly! Willis has barely thrown. With the Titan's OL, they are bitch slapping KC's defense, even though KC knows they are running. I remember hearing that Mike Webster used to tell opposing D's that they are going to run the ball and try to stop them, all the while Franco is rumbling down the field all game - they couldn't stop them! that's the kind of OL I want for the Steelers. I never wanted little hands Kenny drafted by the Steelers - I wanted OL, but it is what it is. If he had a really good OL, I think he would look a whole lot better! (Get a different OC and he would look miles better). Not his fault that he is working with chicken shit!

LOL at this thread. Willis has completed 4 passes through 3 quarters, zero to WR. 48 of 82 yards came on a -2 yard screen where the ball carrier broke 75 tackles.

The Titans are scared the death to let him throw the ball.

It became clear to me in the other thread where STD says he wanted the Steelers to draft Willis. So it's an ego thing for STD to trash Kenny and praise Willis so he can say he was right.

Willis currently 4-9 for 84 yards 2 mins into 4th

Amazing….and only 48 of it came on a 5 yard pass and YAC by the TE

I’d call him “handoff ________” but that would be perceived as being racist by some of the wing nuts here. You can only call white QBs that expression.

The Steelers run game isn't working, so the Steelers end up asking Kenny to throw the ball as the primary way to move the ball, such as it is in our offense. The Titans run, run, run, run, run, the ball and then have Willis throw a pass to try to surprise the D who is busy worrying about the run. Not the same situations.

It’s Willis time

5/11 80 yards

Vrabel has lulled the KC defense to sleep on the passing attack

Now Willis comes alive to lead a late Tenn victory

Do the Titans have the guts to take the shackles off of Willis? No way they can play for OT, right?
