@@twotimes8395 nah don’t get me wrong I know he missed hella throws/reads. But it’s hard to develop/excel when the OC and o-line is boo-boo. However, assuming that changes will be made, he’s running out of excuses and he gotta step up
Philly fan here I want my 3rd draft pick back now! Why the hell did we trade for this guy when we have Tanner Mckee sitting behind hurts who an absolute gunslinger. We just drafted him and showed great progress in the preseason! Waste of a pick good 3rd RD , this could be worse then when we got Marcus Mariota 🤦♀️
This is what I'm saying kenny showed alot of flashes and he takes care of the ball if he can develop an average 3 step drop game especially in the redzone he's instantly better.
@@darrinhale8931Despite having to play under the consensus worst OC in the history of the NFL with an offense that has ZERO run game or rhythm, he has a 14-6 record in games he’s started and finished. He’s also one of the best, if not the best QBs in the clutch as he leads the league in comeback TD passes under five minutes in the last two years. This isn’t a coincidence, when it’s clutch time, he’s calling his own plays and not being handcuffed by Matt Canada. People will say, “is Canada making him miss throws?” The answer is no BUT Canada was definitely destroying his confidence and making him second guess himself. That’s why in the VERY FIRST game without Canada, the offense put up 400 yards for the first time in years and Kenny looked almost perfect. To sum it all up, I’ve never seen a first round QB with a very good winning record and very rare clutch ability, get this much hate from a fan base but it doesn’t surprise me since this dumbass fan base wanted Ben to retire also not realizing it was Matt Canada all along.
@@ItsJuJu26 The defense is the only thing that kept steelers in the game most weeks. Lowest scoring offense-enough said. Watch football a few more years and you will understand.
The kenny hater are just blind you cant tell me mason better then kenny when kenny had to deal with canada calling his play and he was still making plays
There’s not a single X, NFL, quarterback or expert who would agree with that statement. Kenny Pickett does not stay in the pocket, which does not allow for plays to develop downfield. Many times he rolls into pressure. He struggles to read defenses and go through his progressions. He is light years behind Mason Rudolph.
@@shawdiparker512Mason had the same protection he stayed and the pocket and made throws Kenny is scared he runs into pressure and he doesn’t keep his eyes downfield it’s terrible
@@ESTENT-cu7qd kenny was sacked 23 times mitch was sacked 7 times the oline was inconsistent all year they got it together at the end of the year and still gave 3 sacks in the play off kenny didn't have the same protection And if it wasn't for chuks getting himself benched will probably wouldn't have won those last 3 games
@@shawdiparker512 do you not watch tape half of the sacks was caused by Kenny spinning into a sack have you ever seen Kenny step up into the pocket NO I’m so tired of Steelers fans taking up for this guy because he is a hometown guy I’m not saying he won’t become good he just hasn’t looked up to par
kenny pickett is the guy. i think people overlook the good things about when he played and just focus on the bad cuz of injuries and matt canada. he was 7-4 start of the season. wasn’t pretty but it’s just like bryce young once the team is fit and we get a new oc then we’ll be fine
Jesus Christ lmaooo cut the 7-4 shit dude. We were 7-4 in spite of his poor play. His situation wasn’t even remotely close to Young’s. Young has nothing coach WRs backs line defense nothing and somehow still threw for more TDs and passing yards than Pickett . Pickett blows
Burrow didn’t play, Ravens dropped 8 passes and 3 were touchdowns!! The defense was healthy and kept us in games!! With Kenny one read Pickett Steelers were outgained in yards by opposing team every game he started!!!

Thank you all the nay sayers need to see this video !! Imagine if he would have had the oline play like they did the last 3weeks and the run game he would have been way better! If he was available for the Arizona , pats , and colts game we probably win all 3 had would have had a home game!!! Get this man a real oc!
@@thetattedpilot yeah i he sure did have his second yr struggles but nobody was negative towards him his rookie season !! I wonder if niners fans want Purdy gone??? He looked like shit ! I wonder if bills fan want Josh Allen gone he missed a wide open digs underneath probably to win the game before the missed field goal
@@chadbarcavage4265 don’t ever compare this bum to Purdy or Allen . They both showed they had upside and elevated their game from year one to year 2. This bum had 5 years in college he should have been as NFL ready as possible. He sucks
He had the same o line as mason had don’t even mention them the difference is mason isn’t scared and stays in the pocket Kenny is to scared and runs away first chance instead of progressing through reads like mason
Steelers fan here... this highlights are reason why we need to get a better QB. Yes he shows flashes, but there are many people who do but are not consistent enough to get the job done. I mean if he's the guy going into 2024, then I hope for a renaissance, but to believe he's the guy to help us hoist no. 7 is kinda rich, no lie...
@@timothywilliamsjr2218 he’s nothing special those QBs the Steelers had before Ben and after Bradshaw were showing how much of a backup he is. He’s being carried around by the defense.
@@JustBloutPlayers were open and wide open in Canada games!! Kenny one read Pickett didn’t even see them!! The play he ran to a 4 week injury Calvin Austin was wide open during entire route and in the end zone!! Kenny doesn’t even see him!! Atrocious QB play!!!
Im not a Steelers fan but I like this kid just watching from the outside. So much of football today is OC dependent with all these different schemes so Id give him one more year before you give up on him bc he seems like an accurate thrower with some mobility
Kenny cannot read a zone defense. as a QB you have to be able to anticipate throwing windows, thus he looks at read 1 then checks down resulting in short gains, 3 and outs, and the inability to stretch the field. He also will not stay put in a clean pocket consistently. has zero to do with Matt Canada. KP literally has the worst TD % in NFL history among QBs with at least 400 attempts@@xngscout5357
Kenny isn’t a winner!! Steelers were outgained in yards every damn game he started!! That’s the defense who kept Steelers in games!! Ravens dropped 8 passes vs Steelers and Burrow didn’t play in either game!! 6 touchdowns in 12 games!! That is terrible QB play!! Mason Rudolph is way better!!!
not in the Cardinal game, resorted right back to checkdowns after 1 good throw to Pickens. actually go hurt bc he panicked and ran, had Johsnon wide open for a td
Kenny will be fine what make Pickett special is that he good in the 4th Qtr which is hard for a NFL QB now and days. I think the new OC needs to do his best in bringing out 4th Qtr Pickett and having him play like that all game. Kenny Pickett has what it takes to take the Steelers to the SB. You see the Ravens. Lamar folds under the lights time and time again. Kenny has proven he doesn't. He wins the playoffs game in BUF. He's amazing in the 4th Qtr and if Mason played decent football for the whole 4th we win that game.
Only reason people think he’s good in the 4th is because we’re always playing from behind and the defense keeps it close. Mason had better highlights in his four games than Pickett had all season. Only think Pickett has on Rudolph is legs
@@hpwraith7985 Exactly that's why when he went against Bills he looked like that. Remind you that was the same Bills D that made Eason Stick look like a decent NFL QB.
If I hear good in 4th quarter one more time!!! Only 1 Touchdown was thrown in those games!! It took 4 quarters to get that touchdown!! That is bad QB play!!
🤡🤡 You realize Steelers offense was outgained in yards by opposing team every game right? 1 Touchdown per game is what Kenny one read throws!! Kenny is as subpar as it gets!!!

@@gregd6706ur comparing a guy who played ina whole different era? 😂 compare kennys stats to bryce toung (who everyone agrees was terrible n had a worse roster) youll see even bums can look good compared to other bums
And a right tackle. Move Broderick back to left. I want Calvin Austin to play more but they will sign a vertan/draft a slot. I would not be upset at bringing back JuJu. The offense should be set at that point.
so a center and oc will fix the fact that he leaves clean pockets, doesnt understand how to attach a zone defense, doesnt read through his progressions?
Tape isn’t bad, just needs more time to develop. And a better oline. He’s not the worst I’ll say that. He has good on the move passing ability and he’s clutch. Just needs to work on seeing the whole field instead of quadrants
Keep in mind that you are seeing “the highlights”. Full tape on Kenny Pickett tells a completely different story. He leaves clean Pockets, rolls into sacks, does not allow plays to develop downfield
He's definitely got what it takes.. That offensive line was horrendous. Look how that pocket collapsed every play, but towards the end of the season it did get alot better. Hopefully they can feed off the Improvements into next year.
It got better because Mason Rudolph can throw deep passes to our open receivers!! That’s why defenses didn’t blitz at nauseum the entire game!! Mason Rudolph can throw to open receiver!! These are highlights of Kenny! They don’t show all the missed reads and missed throws!!
@@braazypf im absolutely confused as to how people think he’s going to all of a sudden be good under a better OC. Even with a bad OC a QB won’t look this bad. The same people saying give him more time he’s only in his second year was callin for Dan Moore job after his first season 😭😭😭😭. Mind you they the same age
@@thetattedpilot That's crazy tho. How all of sudden we fire Canada and Kenny is suddenly accurate and was reading the field and pushing the ball downfield and look like an NFL QB.
Same line Rudolph had....and ge looked decent enough that some of our fans are willing to settle for him as our permanent starter 😮😅 says alot about Pickett
he doesnt understand zone coverages. a qb has to anticipate windows in a zone and KP is lost against it. thus the checkdowns, 3 and outs, and no points. real game tape shows over and over again open receivers that he never looks at, with very visibly frustrated receivers after the play
@darrinhale8931 facts ppl keep making excuses for what they're eyes are showing them. No matter what issues the coordinator or offense scheme has the biggest problem is the QB not reading the field correctly. Since why Randolph LOOKS Better than Kenny (which he isn't a good QB his self) but he at least knows how to read coverages better
One thing I will say. We fired Canada & in 5 days without him Kenny played by far his best game against the Bengals, then the following week he was looking pretty solid until he got hurt. Who knows, maybe he would’ve turned it up, and played just as good as Mason in the final 3 weeks of the season if he didn’t get hurt.
Reminded me of how damn good he was against the Bengals in his first game without Canada. Unfortunately he got hurt the following week & was 7/10 on his passes so far early in that game when he went down. Hopefully that’s a sign that he will be much better without Canada.
I wish I felt the same way but he’s failed miserably so far 😢. In fact, I cannot think of any game he’s played where he’s dominated and led Steelers to a win.
@@killalltogepis9916idk bout miserably.😂 he’s still winning games and not turning the ball over. He just needs confidence. Maybe if our entire fanbase didn’t act like toddlers he would have some more 😂
After the Steelers officially build the Pickett fence the Steelers offense with Kenny Pickett will be explosive, but the Steelers still need a true #1 star receiver
@@ryanmiller3126 the eagles are better at every position. AJ Brown better than Pickens, Devonate Smith better than the rest of the Steelers wide outs, Saquan Barkley better than Najee. They all pro and pro bowl offensive lineman. You think just bc you got Russ and Fields the Steelers are fixed now? Keep dreaming
@@thetattedpilotnot entirely his fault. That man hasn’t had an easy transition into the nfl with terrible coaching/inconsistency from the oline and no run game early on
@@stingrayyy it’s not entirely his fault no but he is not good. He should have never been drafted near a first round it’s simple as that. Pickett wasn’t good in college either it’s no surprise he isn’t good now. Even with bad coaching line etc a QB with some kind of upside would have shown you flashes or given you something to hang your hat on to believe in but he doesn’t. Nothing about his game stands out
So many of you are quick to dismiss a guy who excelled in a pro style offense in college and has proven when he stays upright and is able to finish games, he wins. Knock on his availability and occasional pocket presence troubles, but the guy can play. To act like the Steelers offense that fired it’s coordinator and didn’t start its first round LT who was traded up for until halfway through the season, to make that offense seem loaded around Kenny, is ludicrous. He’s got quality skill guys around, but the line just wasn’t there last season. They released Mason Cole today for good reason, as well as Chukes a few days before. If Kenny doesn’t get the support needed here, I hope he finds a new home and rips us to shreds so Steelers fans can stop acting like bens successor needs to be elite right away without much to work with.
Kenny Pickett was a good Asset to the Pittsburgh Steelers, unfortunately we had a terrible Offensive Coordinator who made 5 yards game plays, useless Matt Canada, got a crybaby Dionate Johnson Butterfinger Slingky, Pittsburgh Steelers had broken chips on their armor. Now that Kenny Pickett is playing with the Philadelphia Eagles, hope he evolves on that Team.
in four games rudolph did more then pickett did at all in his pro career. not saying pittsburgh should run with rudolph for the future he was a temporary fix at qb who certainly was better but pickett is not the guy for the steelers
IDK I WATCHED HIGHLIGHTS FOR JUSTIN ,,,RUSSELL,,AND KENNY ,, MAYBE KENNY HAS ONE MORE YEAR TO DO GOOD AND SHOW HIS POTENTAIL ,,HE ISNT BAD AT ALL ,,SO WHAT EVER TOMLIN THINKS IS BEST,,,GO KENNY
Mason was going against some of the worse defensive in the NFL. He did bad against a decent D. The Bills D made Eason Stick look like a good QB and Mason look like that vs them.
absolutely most ridiculous statement that I have seen. you obviously didnt watch the games or simply dont know what to look for. Rudolph was 3rd string for 2 years. that means no snaps in practice with the 1st string offense, the rest of practice he runs the other teams offense so that the defense can get a look. He comes in and lights it up, has good timing and chemistry with the offense and gets the job done. This "played against weak" teams is just a dumb statement. He had 3 straight games of over 100 qb rating, the first time a Steeler (including Ben) had done that since 2014!!!!!!@@timothywilliamsjr2218
There’s things to like there’s things to really not like. But to me he looked better as a rookie…and that’s not saying much. Looks like he regressed or wasn’t as confident when the season started.
Easy to look good on a highlight tape, that’s why they’re called mf highlights lol. But I will say this, I am not against giving the man 1 more chance with a whole new offense installed. Idk if people understand truly how bad Canadas entire offense was, it was legitimately high school shit, or let’s be generous & say college shit. He has been fired from like 8/9 college jobs for a reason. Like I’ve said for the past year, idc of our OC is a super successful guy with a big name… just having a competent pro level OC should make all the difference in the world. Even after firing Canada they had to stick with his playbook that is full of trash route concepts. Because of that, I am ok with Kenny getting 1 more year to prove he can be a good QB.
Everyone of these games the Steelers offense was outgained by the opposing teams offense!! Cute video but you are not showing Kenny one read Pickett not even seeing open and wide open receivers and throwing to double teamed receivers instead!! Stats were 6 touchdowns in 12 games!! That is absurd for a starting NFL quarterback!! Mason Rudolph was able to get the ball to the receivers way more often!! 6 touchdowns in 12 games!!!! Stop the hype!! Kenny one read Pickett is waste of time!!!
Yeah......Imagine if the Dallas Cowboys would have thought like that. Stats after first 24 games started in the NFL: Completions Attempts Comp % Yds TDs Int W L Troy Aikman 369 673 54.8% 4328 19 35 6 18 Kenny Pickett 446 713 62.6% 4474 13 13 14 10 Aikman was TERRIBLE for his first two seasons....now he's in the hall of fame. Kenny was running a Matt freakin' Canada designed offence and somehow managed to go 7-4 two seasons in a row. He deserves a chance. Just sayin'.
I don't know why this man has so many people haters I believe he can win a Superbowl championship 🏆🏆 but Mike Tomlin needs get out of Pittsburgh he finished as the head coach
Texans game he had 2 highlights!! In 4 quarters!! 🤡🤡 TE Heyward was wide open in end zone and he throws it to double teamed Allen Robinson instead!! No touchdown on Steelers scoreboard!! Lost game 30-6!!
Biggest mistake the Steelers made. This kid has that clutch gene that makes him special. He just needs a little more work till the game slows down for him a little. I could see him being the starter when Hurts' contract comes up.
@@EastsideCrazy what has Hurts really done? The guy lost 7 of his last 8 games on a completely stacked team. Steelers offense is nowhere near as good as the Eagles was at any of the skill positions or the oline. Kenny went to a way better offensive unit.
