He hasn't obsessed over Kenny so that is a dumb analogy. As you like dumb to be thrown around.As you sit in the corner and crank one out to your self autographed poster of Kenny Pickett in his Blue and Gold Pitt uniform.
Now everyone could believe you rotating hands as you continually masturbate over your Red Nosed third stringers highschool graduation pictures. Yelling wee wee wee like you are the pig in the Geico commercial.

Free agency is not an ultimate truth. If that was the case guys like Doug Flutie, Rich Gannon, Kurt Warner, Warren Moon, Mark Brunell, Jake Delhomme, etc would never have amounted to a hill of beans.

Here are the facts. Rudolph did not get a chance. Pickett has not received a chance but has received much more of a chance so far. Those are facts. Not subjective. Those are objective facts. I don't care if Rudolph gets a shot. Unless he gets one here then I will root for him as loud as I am currently for Pickett. The obsession is with the people who ignore all the red flags of Pickett and just bash Rudolph who by all accounts has played better than Pickett. Again, statistical facts. And I really don't care who is the QB as long as they are playing good and we are winning. But I don't think Mitch or Rudolph are in the teams long term plans. Maybe I am wrong but I just don't think they are. So our best chance for long term success is for Pickett to turn his horse
play around and start putting us in positions to win. I will give him three years. That isn't a magic number. Just a number where I will either decide he can be our guy or we need to look in another direction. Just my personal opinion of how long it should take to see if a guy can play at this level.Biggest triceps on a QB in NFL history.
Please, not the Flutie/Moon/Brunell/etc. argument which I already debunked weeks or months ago.
Please God, not again.

Just too many excuses for KP.
KP's 2nd interception on Sunday was so bad that it wouldn't matter if Bill Walsh was our OC.
My biggest concern is that almost all of the young QB's that have become bona fide stars (Herbert, Burrow, Lamar) all have flashed some Elite qualities, albeit inconsistently. We have yet to see this from KP outside of a throw or two. So why are people so confident in his ability?
Better question, if we cut KP today, how many teams do you think would have him competing for a starting role? Maybe the Jets b/c of Rodgers injury, but would they want another question mark at QB, when the one they have (Zach) is still younger than KP?

Especially when a team as a HIGH END offensive coordinator they don’t want to hold back…….. Like O’Canada for example…

I think like others said it was simply mobility. He wouldn't survive running this **** show offense. Not sure anyone will.

The only thing about Ben that held us back was salary and that is true of any franchise QB.
Uhuh so what prevented a better offensive line team from signing him?
Let me help yinz.
Nothing.
Look at all his opinions he manifested into facts. He can't grasp that a FO doesn't have to give the exact amount of reps to decide what they see in a QB. He loves to tell everyone what is stupid but he doesn't grasp the simple. Then he repeats his dumb *** **** , tell me that isn't cooch type behavior. They could be twins

Nobody is looking for the type of QB he is. Everyone is enamored with the mobile QB at least to a degree. Mason is a throwback and while I think he may be the best pure passer on the team, as I have said repeatedly even in my defense of him it is his lack of lateral agility and short area quickness that is keeping him from getting a shot at starting anywhere. The league has passed his skill set by. But he does have a skill set and would have been right at home in the 70's and 80's leading a team as a pure drop back passer with a good run game throwing bombs.Uhuh so what prevented a better offensive line team from signing him?

He can't consistently throw into tight windows. He isn't mobile. He can be inaccurate. I don't know about the 70s but in today's NFL his lack of mobility gets him flustered leading to more errant passes and INTs. If he could thread the needle and was highly accurate and not prone to turnovers he would have a backup or starting gig.
Sorry his immobility isn't the only thing holding him back. And I don't dislike him. I like his arm strength and deep ball capabilities. But that isn't enough for me to want to see more. Apparently it isn't enough for other teams to want to see more either.
you dont dislike him? really?
Really. I don't need to pretend he is more than what he is to like him. I like him as a third string QB. I like him as a veteran over an undrafted rookie.
If people didn't throw out that cockamamie crap about him not getting a fair shake, I probably wouldn't even comment on the guy. Most of the time I even say something it is off Ford snowflaking over him.
I never threw away his training camp autographed picture. I just don't tape it to my ceiling.

Here should be a fun one for everyone. There’s 32 starting quarterbacks in the NFL. That includes Zach Wilson now. Where do you rank Kenny Pickett. I would say 31st ahead of Josh Dobbs. And not by a lot considering Dobbs was traded days ago and expected to start. Can you argue with that? Who is he better than? Honestly. This should be good for a laugh.
that is more than a bit harsh
while stats are far from the story they do play a part
he threw for more yards 21 of them and had a better completion % than about them.
he is not elite and he may not be in the very good category right now, but he is not too close to being the worst starter in the league
oh and remember that is from a guy who did not want to draft KP
who said he was only hyped here because he went to Pitt
I am not drinking the Kenny Kool-aid
but I do have hope that he will improve over last season
as I said on Stryker's vidcast, right now he is somewhere below Brister on the list of Steeler QBs
but that doesn't mean he couldn't be better than Tommy Gun and O'Donnell by mid season
and also as I stated on the vidcast
rudy stinks on ice

I’m thinking more like the scene from Deliverance.

Who is he better than?
Rudy the red nosed third stringer.
Again while I don’t think Pickett is going to be josh Allen… Remember that after his first game in his second year, the fans and media started suggesting he be traded because they lost faith… he definitely didn’t take a step forward that second year… but year 3 he shined…
Mostly the pickett talk is knee jerk reaction… if he has a great game next week then the guys who hated the pick will slink off and the pickett fans will be irrationally saying they told us so…
Its too early to make any definitive statements about him. Especially with the way the passing game is built right now
