It will be interesting to track both players to see who got the better of the deal.

If you really were as disinterested in him as you say you are because he's no longer a Steeler , then you wouldn't feel the need to cut him up every time you post about him like you're doing now.Quote:

Makes sense. I was trying to quote a portion opposed to whole paragraph. One of these days I’ll learn to quote correctly and post pictures. But probably not.Quote:

Cant wait for the season to start. This feels like the longest offseason ever.

More importantly what are we going to say if Wilson and Fields turn out to be duds?Quote:

Probably the worst team to win a conference championship.

I am starting to see why people feel good about KP. I mean if the bar is Eason....
5 TD to 0 int’s in the postseason. It was a good playoff run and Eason played well until they got stopped by the Bears who were the undisputed dominant team in the league that year. He followed it up with a decent year in 86. I just wouldn't call him a bust. No more a bust than O’Donnell.Quote:

Way to distort whats being said. You always color things in absolutes. The guy got his team to the super bowl. Thats better than what we’ve done in recent memory.Quote:

Sorry. You can’t argue that we should all get on board your evaluation of KP when on the other hand you’re making the case that Eason was good.
i said i didn’t think he was a bust. Which i think is reasonable. Guy got to the superbowl - he had to be good for a while to get there. Even if his overall career was not great. And all i said about KP is i think we cut him loose too soon. And that might end up being the case. You cant argue that he definitely sucks and will be a perennial backup. Not with the fact that he was saddled with the worst OC we’ve had since many on this board were even born. Be honest, you just dont know. I dont think the steelers know for sure but they didnt want to deal with his attitude, which i get.Quote:

Eason is pretty much the definition of bust.
Dan Marino had a tremendous NFL career with the Miami Dolphins and is now a Hall of Famer. He was also taken after Tony Eason in the 1983 NFL Draft.
Eason, the No. 15 overall pick, would go on to rack up just over 11,000 passing yards in his career, compared to over 61,000 yards by Marino, who was taken 12 picks later.
That may not even be the worst part. Eason actually played in Super Bowl XX and put forth an embarrassing effort in a 46-10 loss to the Chicago Bears.
To this day he is the only Super Bowl starting quarterback to not complete a single pass. He missed on all six of his pass attempts before being replaced by Steve Grogan.
Eason only played in nine games in his final three seasons with the Pats and will always be remembered for his painful performance in Super Bowl XX.
5-0 TD’s-Int’s in the 85 playoffsQuote:
