Yesterday, I'd have saod you're being too hard on Kenny...today, yup I guess you're right. I truly thought Kenny would at least TRY and compete then maybe ask for a trade in the middle of the season if he didn't like the results. Which is what he SHOULD have done...by doing it like this he looks like a PUNK running away from a fight. Not cool man. I thought better of him, guess I was wrong.
Rich is going to take this one from this bunch lol I seen the earlier videos and they were disagreeing with him big time on Pickett. You can feel the excitement and gratification of being right and Rich being wrong 😂
@@kenxclout the other day he was trying to get emotional over jason kelce letting his trainer tape his ankles for his retirement speech. Was so cringe I had to turn it off
@@ekoboyz757 well, to be fair they did make some decent trades on defense, and they did pick up ine of the best punters in the league, right when they got Wilson. I just wonder who will be on the field longer, Wilson or the punter
Yes it would be! Trading for Fields would make plenty of sense! It would be a BIG upgrade from Kenny and Mason to Russell and Justin! Go Steelers…make it happen.
I don't get how that makes sense for Pickett. If he hated having to compete for the starting spot with russel in PIT, why would he go to a team that has a clear #1 QB? One who has many more years ahead of him than russel does?
Football players are drama queens now a day's, look at who Tomlin picks in drafts, Leven bell, drama queen, Antonio brown, drama queen, George Pickens, drama queen. Wouldn't be surprised if Pickett was a quieter drama queen
Mason didn’t want to be backup. He wanted a chance to start. He was not this year, and he wasn’t going to miss his chance to make decent money and battle Will Levis instead of Russell Wilson.
Mason wouldnt be afraid to compete for the position.. this decision from kp8 really was bad and puts him in a very bad light plus now he is 100 % a backup
Love that the Steelers culture is changing. Making splashes, not being afraid to move on from players early, not taking no BS. This can be a good era for the Steelers
“was” a Super Bowl champion. He’s 36 this season. Ben “was” a Super Bowl champion at 36+. That didn’t make him good at 36+. At best, he’s a bridge QB for a couple years.
Pete Carroll let RW walk for a reason. RW is just going on name value alone at this point. Denvers paying him millions to play for someone else. That said, I think you are correct that RW would beat out Pickett anyway.
And Pickett knew it. But he has missed a golden opportunity to learn from one of the best. Look at Jordan Love. He’s a top-5 MVP candidate for me: Stroud Love Goff Russ Mahomes Others: Watson Allen McCaffrey Watt Bosa N’Jigba Cousins Murray Carr
I’m embarrassed that I bought Kenny Pickett’s jersey. Yeah the OC sucked but man he would just collapse under pressure. Couldn’t think on his feet or look down field to wide open targets. Eagles can have em.
Pickett is a coward the way he left. He literally left and did not say a word to people who stuck up for him who were fans of this team. In Pittsburgh he always had a chance to get the job back because they drafted him. These other teams see him as a backup. He messed up. Vanity gets you nowhere.
@@nelsonc6173he is bad qbr in the 40s 61 percent completion percentage and 16 passing tds, all this while Pittsburgh would need and under center field general to guide a run first scheme. He sounds like the exact opposite of the backup you’d want.
He had no idea by refusing to dress that last game would be it!! They way he handled getting benched for Mason plus that....Coach T and the organization was done!!🫡🫡🫡👋🏼👋🏼👋🏼👋🏼
As a eagles fan this is Howie roseman flexing i thought devin white was the cherry on top but getting pickett as a solid backup was a another great move and we still have 8 picks this year
Great move ? Devin white is washed for one , did you even watch him play last year ? And Kenny Pickett is statistically one of the worst QBs in the league, he hold a nfl record for worst pass to touchdown ratio and had the highest un catchable ball rate in the NFL, what a flex 😂🤡
@@Ruthless13xhaha, what! No weapons!? Mason Rudolph came in and showed that there were weapons to be used. All Kenny did was dance around like a scared, blind child.
Kenny has been pouting since losing his job to Mason. He could've used the Russell signing as a learning tool instead he went negative once again (remember he said that he couldn't learn anything from Mason) ✌🏼✌🏼✌🏼✌🏼✌🏼
Kenny couldn’t handle the heat in the kitchen.. him going to the Eagles let you know Kenny is a loser at heart.. now you’re going to the Eagles where there’s no chance of competition 😂😂 like what
The Steelers took a RB 3 yrs ago because the owner said they had the run ball more, then REACHED for a QB 2 yrs ago because they NEEDED a QB that at best was a late 2nd Round, early 3rd, because the Owner wanted him…Mr. Rooney PLEASE stay out of personal decisions
This is the biggest shock I've seen in the free agency so far. I thought they'd at least keep him as a backup but ig he wanted out. Whatever, he aint starting anywhere else either so idk why but now we also have the option to draft a QB in round 1 and have him sit under Russ for a season or 2 and get actually properly introduced in the NFL.
Picket was more of a story than a genuine first round talent (Pitt to Pittsburgh). Pickett has some good intangibles on the field, versus his off-field attitude of not wanting to compete. He is a good backup to Hurts if he's out for an extended period of time, but he is not a franchise starting QB that will take your team deep into the postseason. I regarded him as a mid-round talent who would be a good backup and a serviceable starter - nothing more. I saw Pickett interviewed in a Florida hotel room on this YT video and he came across as a great kid. But after last year? He just put a ceiling on his career.
I luv how everyone forgot about Matt Canada, and how the Steelers have been jerking around their QBs for years. Screwed Mason. Screwed Trubisky and then screwed Kenny. It’s a S show in Pittsburgh. He’s better off getting out now!
Steelers defense will do well, thank God they picked up one of the best punters in the league because Wilson and fields will make sure he is on the field longer than they are 😅
@@christopherharte4741You don’t watch football at all, they’ve been the joke of the league the last two years. Russel Wilson had 26tds to 8 int last year, that’s more than the entire Steelers QB room has had in two season. Just say I don’t know anything about football and move on clown 😂🤡
@@Keefer24 ever heard of Carolina panthers or Denver broncos? Obviously not because they have been the clowns the past couple years. Maybe actually watch football instead of looking at stats. If you want to go trans that's your decision don't have to ask me
Josina Anderson of CBS Sports first reported this "Pickett asked for a trade in the aftermath of learning of Wilson's signing through social media on Sunday night and being told Monday morning by Steelers head coach Mike Tomlin that Wilson would get first-team reps in the pole position to be QB1, NFL Network Insider Tom Pelissero reported. Tomlin had previously told Pickett he'd have a chance to compete for the starting job, according to Pelissero." So evidently, was still a competition, but yeah...Tomlin gave the veteran the "pole position" in the competition...as he should have, Russ earned that much in his career. Kenny didn't like it so asked for a trade. Volunteers, not hostages. The Steelers really didn't "quit" on Kenny...Kenny quit on the Steelers. It is what it is.
So... they ashcanned three high-priced QBs in favor of one million dollar man and two scrubs to be named later? They got rid of a 24 year old with a future for a 35 yo who sucked last season and a career in the past? Looks to me like the Pirates' philosophy of building a team around cheap players well past their prime has taken hold. It sure as hell isn't the Chuck Noll philosophy of building the team through the draft.
@@rickwelch8464 Steelers drafted Bradshaw and the team was 5-9. The next year they were 6-8. By the prevailing wisdom they should have traded Bradshaw and Greene.
@@spaceflight1019 I'm aware. Our QB room was garbage at seasons end. By the beginning of next season it will objectively look much better with Russ + any of Tannehill/Fields/Dobbs
The Steelers receive a grade of an "A" so far this off season. Bring in Fields and then omg...I absolutely love what they are doing. Their GM is a boss
@@hexagonoctogon3140 because you need to think more than one year down the line. Fields never had a chance to sit and learn so you roll the dice on that for his upside along with drafting a high risk prospect like Milton. Then when you no longer have Wilson on the cheap deal you have options far beyond what you'd get drafting at 20+ in any year. Unless you're suggested long term option is Tannehill or someone similar
Keep Kirk as a permanent replacement whenever you're out Rich. Dude is a joy to watch and hes very respectful to the guys. That big ear fella seems like a jerk and looks down on the guys. You can tell the energy whenever Kirk is hosting is high.
I predict a Minshew path for Pickett. Eagles will have a great season, Pickett will shine when called upon- with those weapons- Moore will get a HC job with a team like the Titans, Pickett will go with him, end up starting then going to the Raiders as a starter on a big contract.
You obviously never watched Kenny Pickett play, 13 tds 13 int in 24 starts? Highest un catchable ball rate in the NFL? NFL record for worst pass to touchdown ratio ? Panics in the pocket , can’t read a defense, bad attitude and a coward. Yeah he’ll be great 😂🤡
I'm super happy for Pickett. He needed to go to a team that could truly develop him. I believe in Pickett. On the right team and system, he will be just fine.
I'll give the Steelers credit, they're trying something. What you don't want is your team to not be contending but just sticking with the status quo. If you're not one of the top six teams or so then you should be trying to get better and that means making some moves. Though if Pickett wanted out going to another team with an established starter is kind of a lateral move for him. Did he have any say in that or did the Steelers just ship him out? At least he doesn't have to change his license plate.
He has zero say in being traded at all. People framing this as his idea are morons that will eat up anything the media says. Local media has been taking shots at Kenny since he got injured, why would he want to play for a team and fanbase that hates him for no reason?
So, he got butthurt about Russell Wilson, who could implode at any minute and get him right back in at starter, and end up in Philly, where he'll be lucky to win the backup job.
Everybody: the Steelers, the city of Pittsburgh, TJ, Brock, all those folks, except Rich, KNEW Russell Wilson was going to be the starter in Pittsburgh and Pickett would be in limbo. But Rich kept chewing on that Pickett bone for some odd reason. Let it go, Rich. We told you so.
It's because Rich was advocating for actual roster management and not wasting a 1st round pick by using the guy as a scapegoat. Steelers issues were with a bad OC and every QB on their roster played better once he was fired. Not even a full offseason later they are pushing their young QB out by bringing in a washed up dramatic veteran who has known ego issues. It better work out or they'll be the laughing stock of the league.
@donywahlberg Scapegoat? Kenny Pickett was terrible. Mason Rudolph looked better in a couple games than Pickett ever did. Rich was wrong and TJ them was right. Rich's age is starting to show because he can't accept that this is a new era and the GMs today are not afraid to move on from old traditions.
Preferred to move on to back up Jalen Hurts? Seems like staying in Pittsburgh would be the way back into the starting lineup, either if Russ flames out or in a year
Russell Wilson better have on hell of a season in Pittsburgh!!! They better have a deep playoff run!!!! If he doesn't the Pittsburgh brass will crucify him!!!☹️
Now get a qb in free agency or the draft. they betting the farm on Wilson now. All they needed was a descent qb. All Wilson needs to do is manage the game and he throws a good long ball. Also he is mobile and can run for 1st downs and tds.
Did this guy really say "espen" - and not know it said ESPN?? 😆 And interrupting TJ when he's saying his thing; c'mon, man, you can keep that thought in your head for a minute without losing it. I saw this news a few hours before seeing this clip and it was immediately what I thought too (it's obviously what EVERYONE thought) - if they cleared their QB room completely, brought in Russ for a cheap, one year deal, of COURSE they can (and probably should) get Fields before his 5th year and only having to option it so they have him for 2 years before deciding to keep and pay him.
Clearly it's time for TJ to take over the show and Rich has to sit in the corner for a few weeks to think about his hot take (I kid, of course, but TJ is always a great voice on this show)
And 24 hours later, Fields is off to Pittsburgh. Kirk is a prophet.
Kirk called it... Fields to the Steelers. Great call, Kirk. 2:45
We want volunteers not hostages..didn’t want a competition with Russ & was butt hurt being benched for mason last year ✌️

So, he got butthurt about Russell Wilson, who could implode at any minute and get him right back in at starter, and end up in Philly, where he'll be lucky to win the backup job.
Bro Chicago not letting Justin fields go they are getting Marvin Harrison Jr at #1 I thought you guys knew this 😂
Man I thought Kenny 2 Gloves was the next Terry Bradshaw 😂😂
Everybody: the Steelers, the city of Pittsburgh, TJ, Brock, all those folks, except Rich, KNEW Russell Wilson was going to be the starter in Pittsburgh and Pickett would be in limbo. But Rich kept chewing on that Pickett bone for some odd reason. Let it go, Rich. We told you so.
It's because Rich was advocating for actual roster management and not wasting a 1st round pick by using the guy as a scapegoat. Steelers issues were with a bad OC and every QB on their roster played better once he was fired. Not even a full offseason later they are pushing their young QB out by bringing in a washed up dramatic veteran who has known ego issues.
It better work out or they'll be the laughing stock of the league.
@donywahlberg Scapegoat? Kenny Pickett was terrible. Mason Rudolph looked better in a couple games than Pickett ever did. Rich was wrong and TJ them was right. Rich's age is starting to show because he can't accept that this is a new era and the GMs today are not afraid to move on from old traditions.
Justin knew he wasn’t being traded from the get go. They are trading the pick back…wake up.
Packers fans are hoping for that for sure 😂
lol. Can we get Bradshaw's take too? I bet Aditi Kinkhabwala is having a conniption that her favorite underappreciated Steeler has been cut.
laughing at everyone saying fields
Preferred to move on to back up Jalen Hurts? Seems like staying in Pittsburgh would be the way back into the starting lineup, either if Russ flames out or in a year
He’s a scrub and should never see the field as QB1 again 😂
Who will be the back up? In the modern NFL, you need two decent qbs on the roster. Get Justin Fields today!
Russell Wilson better have on hell of a season in Pittsburgh!!! They better have a deep playoff run!!!! If he doesn't the Pittsburgh brass will crucify him!!!☹️
We need Rich's show soundbite...."Hell goin on"?! 🤣🤣
Philly is foolish to take Pickett. Pittsburgh is foolish to take Wilson. Philly will be fine, but the Steelers are in organizational trouble.
When your most impressive achievement is being drafted in the first round, is the situation worth lamenting…
🤔
yeah, not all but a lot of us in Chicago would rather send Caleb to Pitt, tbh, but it would at least be closure to this
Wow...😂😂the Steelers aint playin' around....if you're not helping them win, GET OUT! 😂
TJ, I've been wondering the same thing too. The Bears are going to surprise us..
Now get a qb in free agency or the draft. they betting the farm on Wilson now. All they needed was a descent qb. All Wilson needs to do is manage the game and he throws a good long ball. Also he is mobile and can run for 1st downs and tds.
Fields!! Let’s go!!!!
Wait, WHAT...EVERY SINGLE DAY ON THE ROKU CHANNEL?!?!?
Did this guy really say "espen"
- and not know it said ESPN?? 😆
And interrupting TJ when he's saying his thing; c'mon, man, you can keep that thought in your head for a minute without losing it. I saw this news a few hours before seeing this clip and it was immediately what I thought too (it's obviously what EVERYONE thought)
- if they cleared their QB room completely, brought in Russ for a cheap, one year deal, of COURSE they can (and probably should) get Fields before his 5th year and only having to option it so they have him for 2 years before deciding to keep and pay him.
TELL EM TJ! You were tryna tell Rich all week and he was so wrong. You gotta rub it in next week when he is back 🤣😂
Lets not forget how wrong Rich was. He beat the desk down and wouldn't let TJ speak about the situation 😂.
If Kenny want out? ✌
Kenny Pickett much rather be a Backup QB to Jalen Hurts in Philadelphia than to Russell Wilson in Pittsburgh.
Who cares what he wants, dudes a first round bust and a scrub 😂🤡
@@Keefer24 That may be the case but he’s still collecting a NFL Salary for 2024.
He called it
What a waste of Steelers 2022 No. 1 draft pick and potential talented quarterback from not too long ago; the Steelers front office is “STUPID!”
Kevin Colbert picked him, and 2 weeks later retired.
Clearly it's time for TJ to take over the show and Rich has to sit in the corner for a few weeks to think about his hot take (I kid, of course, but TJ is always a great voice on this show)
"You don't draft CW, you're fired" is the rallying cry of all brain-dead pundits, this off-season.
Kenny was a detrimental attitude
The Khan Artist 👨🎨 isn’t playing games. Nor is Coach Mike T and Andy Weidl.
fields to steelers?
Calling it now. They are gonna bring in some nobody from the XFL/ USFL to fill at least one of those spots 💀💀💀
Ryan Tannehill. Will be the backup. Justin Fields will go to The Raiders.
makes sense. Nothing would surprise me after today.
I would'nt mind that.
To bad your guy is wrong. The bears should keep Fields. Poles will have his job
they should, you're right, but will they....?
these guys know ball!
As an Eagles fan, I'd've preferred Philly simply trade for Justin Fields ... I guess this was the cheaper move, in terms of draft capital.
I do not want Fields on Pittsburgh.
and the next day...oops.
So, Rich Eisen was very wrong about the "QB competition" lmfao.
