Kenny Pickett, NFL Champion
How crazy is it that Pickett has a Super Bowl ring and TJ Watt won't ever get one? TJ won't even get to play in a Super Bowl...Kenny actually played.
Lots of shitty players over the years have won SB's without contributing much if anything and lots of amazing players have never won a playoff game.
Not sure how this is news?

It’s not crazy at all. Pickett saw the future and had the balls to get out. TJ and his buddy Cam love the easy practices and basic game plans of Coach Teflon, and those translate into early tee times after the season ends. Pickett took a lot of shit in Pittsburgh. The demented fans and radio personalities are STILL trashing him, because it makes them feel better about themselves. It’s pathetic. Kenny escaped and he’s better for it. He would have been stuck in a bullshit system for another year, taken more abuse, and been completely destroyed. Regardless of whatever else happens, he has a ring and that’s something that Mr. November Heyward desperately wants and will never have. Unless he leaves, TJ won’t have one either.How crazy is it that Pickett has a Super Bowl ring and TJ Watt won't ever get one? TJ won't even get to play in a Super Bowl...Kenny actually played.

Super Bowl Champion. 3 words Cam Heyward will never have on his resume. Fuck you, Cam. You are the player who represents NHALS more than anyone else.
I hope Kenny visits the Steeler locker room, slides the ring on his middle finger and shows his ring to Cam, TJ and especially Mediocre Mike. Cam and TJ are the two biggest reasons in the locker room why their fraud coach continues to be employed.

Big takeaway, the Steelers are delusional to think they're even close to being what the Eagles are
They're a better standard, than what Pittsburgh used to be.
Rooney is simply afraid

You were way ahead of the curve on this. TJ is a dominant stat machine, but he doesn't seem to have the killer instinct / drive to win that true Steelers greats of the past did. Do you see James Harrison or Greg Lloyd or Jack Lambert passively tackling someone who didn't have the ball over and over again just because the coach said so, even if it clearly wasn't working like TJ did in this Ravnes playoff game? I think those guys would do something about such nonsense. Maybe I'm wrong.
I'm not as far down the "Low Watt" road as you, STD, but I am starting to head down that path. Watt, Cam, Minkah- they appear to be company men and enablers who would rather lose than rock the boat.
Harrison's SB pick was an ad-lib. He was supposed to be blitzing, but read a pass to the flat and instead chose to drop into coverage.W&M_Steeler wrote: ↑Mon Feb 10, 2025 8:05 pmYou were way ahead of the curve on this.

You don't like freelancing like that, but you live with it and let your special players make those special plays. But in Watt, and especially on the offense side with Wilson, you see the Steelers have pretty much a zero tolerance policy for ad libs.

Ooooh! That’s quite the burn! Did that make you feel better?
Now, tell me about his small hands.
You, Mark Madden, Joe Starkey and the countless others that suffer from PDS can rest easy knowing that Pickett is no longer your problem, and yet you can’t stop talking about him.
Kenny Pickett freed himself from the dysfunctional clutches of the Steeler cult. In their spiteful effort to screw him, they accidentally traded him to a real team with real coaches and a real culture. He has a ring and has learned far more to continue his NFL career than if he stayed in Pittsburgh with Mediocre Mike.

Pickett is the embodiment of everything that is wrong with the organization and the fanbase. From the selection to his departure, the Steelers did NOTHING to help him. It wasn’t Pickett’s fault the Steelers drafted him, failed to develop him or provide him the tools and support he needed to see if he could develop into a franchise QB. Steeler fans ripped Colbert for drafting him and Kenny for not developing himself, but nary a word was ever spoken about the incompetent coaching dipshit who wanted to draft him, gave him Matt Canada as his OC, and had zero plans to develop him. (That plan also seemed to be AOK with Art II, billionaire dipshit.)
Kenny didn’t ride the coattails of anything. He didn’t seek a trade to a Super Bowl contender. He just wanted out. He was traded to the Eagles out of spite, and hilariously ended up with a ring. He actually played in a Super Bowl, something Heyward and Watt will NEVER do. The Steelers knew what they were doing by trading him there. The Eagles have a young franchise QB and the odds of Pickett playing were zero without injury. That was a “fuck you, Kenny” trade. Pickett knew what was up. Everyone did. I love that the Eagles won, because mouth-breathing Steeler fans are STILL bitching about Pickett. Pickett isn’t and wasn’t the problem.
One thing, though. The Eagles were looking to draft Pickett, so they like him. And if you look at their roster and their drafting over the last 5 years, they have done some tremendous work. They wouldn’t waste their time with Pickett if they didn’t think he could help the team. Pickett is also very well-liked by his teammates in Philadelphia... all in all, the year went much better for Pickett than it did for Heyward, Watt, and the rest of Tomlin’s sycophant gang. If Pickett ever has a chance to start again in the NFL, his trade to Philadelphia will be the reason why. His career would have been crushed if he stayed in Pittsburgh, because there is no offense in Pittsburgh. There is no player development in Pittsburgh. Anyone with any raw skill, like Pickens, will do whatever they can to get out before their career goes up in smoke too.
You can’t control where you are drafted. Brock Purdy would be on a practice squad right now or out of the league if he was drafted by the Steelers.

If they had any will/drive to win, they would have gone to management years ago and pulled the plug on Tomlin... or requested a trade to force their hand. All they do is praise Tomlin and tell the world how they’d never want to play for anyone else. They are losers.
It’s a match made in NHALS heaven.

Pickett's a spineless pussy. A SB ring for being in the right place at the right time doesn't change that. He asked to leave because he didn't want to compete for his job that he never actually earned.

The current Steelers player get a rah-rah speech from their incredible Head Coach about how much of a great competitior he is and how he loves to compete and how great he is at competition.

That's because DL was a teacher of the game. He engineered Blitzburg. Today's Steeler coaches seem to do nothing. I agree with you.

You are a clown. What is "documented" is that Tomlin was self-scouting, and thought the team was sloppy blocking after turnovers. So, that IS a credit to him. Harrison doesn't score without effective blocking from his teammates.SteelerDayTrader wrote: ↑Tue Feb 11, 2025 5:27 amIncorrectjeemie wrote: ↑Mon Feb 10, 2025 11:25 pmJames Harrison's greatest moment of his career happened because he ignored his assignment on a hunch.W&M_Steeler wrote: ↑Mon Feb 10, 2025 8:05 pm

It's also well documented by Lebeau and Harrison himself that he was *not* supposed to drop back into coverage at all on the interception. He was supposed to rush the QB, and decided on his own based on film study and how the game was playing out to drop and look for the quick hitter.
Tomlin did not coach Harrison to do what he did at all. Neither did Lebeau. He just did it. And it worked.

The fuck you talking about? There were a million and one apologists complaining about Canada. And yes, the Steelers coaching sucks. No disagreement. But Pickett also sucks. He doesn’t have NFL tools (he has a weak arm, middling accuracy, and doesn’t process at a high level. If Pickett maxed out his career, he is a serviceable starter.

Do you see James Harrison or Greg Lloyd or Jack Lambert passively tackling someone who didn't have the ball over and over again just because the coach said so, even if it clearly wasn't working like TJ did in this Ravnes playoff game? I think those guys would do something about such nonsense. Maybe I'm wrong.
You don't like freelancing like that, but you live with it and let your special players make those special plays. But in Watt, and especially on the offense side with Wilson, you see the Steelers have pretty much a zero tolerance policy for ad libs.

The fuck you talking about? There were a million and one apologists complaining about Canada. And yes, the Steelers coaching sucks. No disagreement. But Pickett also sucks. He doesn’t have NFL tools (he has a weak arm, middling accuracy, and doesn’t process at a high level. If Pickett maxed out his career, he is a serviceable starter. Nothing to write home about and someone you are only happy with if you are paying him little money.
He can show off the ring at the car dealership he will be working in 3 years
