I don’t think it’s all Kenny’s fault. I’m not gonna try and come off as some “Kenny is the prodigal son” dick riding mofo, he should 1000% be showing more promise than he has been especially this season. I feel like it’s both Coach T and canadas fault to be honest. I know everyone’s on canadas ass, but it’s fucking t’s job to sit the kid down, and fucking discipline his ass.
We aren’t Buffalo, we don’t let Josh Allen lose to the fucking bronco’s on prime time and still worship him. This is Pitt, let’s be real here. Kenny is a sub 25 qb in the league. But he’s still a professional football quarterback, and looked even better in college. It’s time for tomlin to be a FUCKING COACH, sit the fucking kid until he’s ready to play, release Mitch shitbiski, sign an EVEN SUBPAR QB, and let Kenny learn his lesson. I’m not on this “release Kenny” wagon. I think the potential is there, but tomlin needs to realize the next 10-20 won’t be like the last 2 decades. Kenny is not, and will never be a Ben. We don’t need a ben (although it would be nice). We need a Justin Herbert, a Trevor Lawrence, a tua. Not some god player like mahomes, Brady, Ben. We need a decent qb, and quite frankly we do not have one. But that doesn’t mean that with some discipline, training, and experience, we can’t make one.
So I leave you guys with this. Kenny Pickett deserves some back lash, but way more so does coach T and canada.
Thank you for coming to my ted talk. Have a great week
It seems like a domino effect really. It starts at the top. Tomlin hires/promotes guys into key coaching roles who aren’t qualified/ready, and it has a massive impact, especially on the O.
Canada was an AWFUL choice for anything football related. Nothing on his college coaching resume that even slightly indicated he could coach in the pros. Then when we couldn’t gotten rid of his worthless ass, they keep him…while not even talking to Bienemy, who was available.
Austin had nothing on his DC resume to indicate he’d be remotely good at it. His last two DC jobs ended in disaster, as both teams Ds were WORSE under him than they were before. Seems like a “appease the mob” hiring, but make sure the guy is someone who Tomlin can run roughshod over, as it’s well known Tomlin interferes with the D, A LOT.
Meyer was another head scratcher. Dude again has nothing on his resume that indicated he’d be capable of running the OL, and he was the one at the head of possibly the worst OL in history in Carolina the other year.
The QBs coach Sullivan was another internal promotion, and we see how that’s worked out. The QBs ALL look like hot garbage.
So OL sucks, Offense sucks, QBs suck, and Tomlin is at the head of it all.
