Super Bowl!

[DesertSteel]

Backup #1 will be back so we can sit backup #2 and #3.

[86WARD]

Meh…why bother. Maybe they’ll rich him back to soon and injure him further.

Here’s to 7-10!

[Rotorhead]

At least he won’t be throwing INTs all game long

[Dwinsgames]

At least he won’t be throwing INTs all game long

you sure about that ? I seem to recall a 3 pick game

[86WARD]

True. Hasn't thrown one since 10/01. Trubisky has thrown 5 since then.

Sam Howell probably has twice that. lol

[feltdizz]

Kenny has issues but throwing fun balls to the other team hasn’t been one of them this year. I know he had a few almost INT’s but they were usually to DJ who likes to run the wrong way.

Trubisky is awful. Remember, even though Pickett wasn’t throwing a bunch of TD’s we were 7-4 and one the 1 yard line of a 3-3 game when he was injured.

I know you don't like him but seriously look at the coaching he's had. NONE. I'm willing to give the kid one year with a real OC coming out of a full training camp. This team has talent just absolutely NO coaching from the top down. The only way Tomlin even sniffs a Superbowl is if he realizes this and puts and OC/DC in place to win.

I'm so sick of hearing how Tomlin is loved and Belichick is a genius. After 2021 it is really starting to look like they both won a lot because of the QB's under center.

Pretty much the league unless you are in San Fransico. If Andy Reid doesn't retire in the next few years his time to be blasted by the fan base will come as well.

Just about…

[Dwinsgames]

maybe so nutsack clinger but Howell also has thrown 19 TD passes as a 1 year stater how many has the guys whos sack you are hanging all over have in 2 years as a starter ??? yeah thats what I thought far less in 2 years .....

Howell also have thrown for 300 plus yards in a game how many times in that 1 season as a starter ?? here is a hint 6 how many does your guy have that you are hanging all over his junk ?? yeah 1 in 2 seasons ....

Howell has completed 65% of his attempts your guy who you are hanging off his nutsack is just 60% while he rarely throws further than 15 feet in the air (90% of attempts within 5 yards )

so go play with your boy kennys nuts some more maybe you can pleasure him back to health so he can suck some more

I’m a Steelers fan, not a KP or even a Big Ben fan. Have been for close to 50 years. You’re just a negative hater who likes to pat himself on the back because you thought you knew which guy to draft. Your guy leads league in sacks and pics, lol. How do their wins and losses compare you negative kunt?

Howell has Eric Beinemy and a ton of losses. I know folks like fantasy stats but 19 TDs and 15 INTs is not good football.

I seriously doubt anyone would be happy if Kenny was 4-9 as a starter but had a few 300 yard games and more TD’s and INT’s with Eric Beinemy at OC.

I shouldn't even dignify you with an answer when you can not even spell picks ..... and anyone who does not see a direct correlation in sacks and int's (predicated mostly because of pressure) and then blames the sacks on the QB (whats he to do fucking block for himself??)

you sir are a complete dumbass ... go take your pills and change your diaper

I see you didn’t address your boys win -loss record and chose to ridicule a missing letter instead. WOW you really got me there, lol. Go have another bud light oops I mean lite in your double wide. The losses correlate to sacks and picks too, so are those excusable.

KP may not be the next Tom Brady but look at the coaches and the team around him. I think he has been adequate and will get better.

And Sam Howell? Who gives a fuck what he does other than one member here. I root for the steelers not the commanders.

Most of us can see as bad as offense is with KP , its much worse without him. Without an O line and a center who can actually snap , throw in vanilla offense it’s impossible to judge how much blame to put on KP for the shitty offense. Yet the guy with Howells cock in his mouth continues to pat himself on the back and tell us how bad Kenny sucks. It gets old.

again you completely miss the point why am I surprised .. I wasnt the one who brought up Howell ( once again you got it wrong ) cant fix your stupid for you reading is fundamental

[Edman]

Sadly, Kenny is just one of the many line of scapegoats for Tomlin for this teams' failures. Just like Ben, AB, and Juju was. But the curtain is off of them now and people see the ringleader for what he truly is.

[steelcityboyz]

Again, all you do is play the insult name calling game, that's all you got. I get it, KP is no superbowl winning Qb but he's the best the team has right now. Cuban is 100% right, it does get old. You come on here to bash KP and praise Howell to make yourself feel better. I don't hate Howell I hope he does well in his career, and i certainly don't bash him every chance i get.

Everything that is wrong with this team falls on Tomlin, some can see it, others will ride this train wreck all the way, including the Rooney's KP doesn't have a chance in hell on this team.

again if you had bothered to read it was Cuban that brought up Howell AGAIN and you jump in ( second time this month same deal ) and assume it was me ....

[86WARD]

Sam Howell probably has twice that. lol

He’s also been benched because of bad play.

[pczach]

Can we all please get past this Kenny Pickett/Sam Howell vortex that is sucking the life out of this place and making it a more volatile place to be?

How about everyone here make a real effort to not talk about it for a while....please.

I can't believe we keep having this erupt in every other post here.

Come on everyone, we're all better than that. Time to get past this shit.

I saw that but didn’t want to poke the bear.

Yeah. How bout they both suck so let’s drop it.

[Voice of Reason]

A lot of people were bashing second-year Kenny because in their minds they were comparing him to Ben in his prime. The past few weeks we've seen what bad quarterbacking really is, which is hopefully making some people realize that Kenny, while still a work in progress, might not be as bad as they thought. If Kenny wasn't hurt I think we'd have won at least two of those three games, if not all three.
