They suck and until Tomlin is gone they will be nothing more than a .500 team. He should have been fired 5 years ago.

Steelers beat the raider’s.
I had it wrong. Good thing I ain’t a betten man!

Stat wise, hard to tell the difference between Fields and Pickett. Neither seemed to ever be the reason they won a game. With the Jets winning the Devontae Adams lottery, Steelers are likely going to need a QB that can be the reason they win. Not saying Fields can’t be that, but Wilson was brought in to be that and was that for a while. I’d be just fine if he comes in and crushes it.

How many passing yards past two games? Guy is not winning games. He is a backup, better than Pickett backup, but backup. Steelers gave him a chance. Now they are giving the other backup a chance…

 Having the 3rd worst punter in all of football worked out great with Picket.
  Even Bobby Walden avg. over 2 yrds. a punt better for us way back when.
 
 

Crappy, you don’t happen to have a Fields t-shirt with his head imposed on Rambo’s body and a 4x8 sheet of plywood with “Fields is the starter” spray painted on your front lawn? Starting to sound MAGA for this guy…. Wilson is not my QB!!! Rigged!!!

Fields threw for 150 or so each of the past two games. Like it or not, that is KP level play. Doing it in the weak part of the season too. I’d love if he took off and proved without a shadow of doubt that he is the future QB, but he hasn’t. That is what he had to do with Wilson on the bench. If he was all they had, I’d be 100% support behind him and wouldn’t mind them taking some lumps in his development.

But they have a proven elite guy as well, who they brought in to start. It is time to see if his play is close to his prime. If he is, they have a shot to get beyond 1 and done in playoffs. If he looks similar to Fields in a game or two of play, I would be completely for them going back to Fields. It is a rough situation for Fields, but the Stillers were pretty transparent that Wilson was brought in as the starter. They would have definitely went back on that IF Fields came in and lit it up. He did not light it up.

I’m Twitter, where the “truth” is spoken…

This conversation is about Wilson likely getting the start. I’m not a proponent of either player. I want them both to crush it. I personally would have loved it to be Fields. He is young and potential future of the Stillers. His natural ability is off the charts, unfortunately that doesn’t always equate. His play has not been Super Bowl quality at all. They are hoping Wilson’s will be. I highly doubt it will. But I have no issues with them seeing if it is. Fields was not their first round pick that they owed it to themselves to give him time and take lumps as a learning process. They are looking for whoever gives the best chance to win as much as possible this year. Fields simply didn’t do enough to keep Wilson from showing what he can do.

Wilson 2024!!!

BTW, got to give Fields a ton of credit for how he seems to be handling it. I only saw one small thing. Him saying that he just hasn’t played well enough. Whether that is really how he feels, he is handling it the right way. Chances are likely high that he will start another game this year. Would be best for him to not have to deal with the media down his throat for “you said this or that”.

Picket is another not so cool name for a QB.

 Go catch some Perch    

No perch yet. I figure how long it has taken fall weather to show up, the perch bite is off? Supposed to get my brother, nephew and my son out next week. So might give it a shot.

Was supposed to get out with a buddy of mine, but he had something come up. So I figured I’d give it a try solo. Tried doing some vertical jigging on some humps for eyes. Of course that didn’t amount to anything. One bite, enough to have me waste time trying again.

Switched to finding some sunken brush piles and got about a dozen crappie. One at 12.5”. Most were 7”-9”. Not a great outing, but not too bad. More trying to just find a good pattern for when I take my crew out.

Mason Rudolph is supposed to start today.

What you talkin' 'bout Holmes? Go Bishop!!!

Fake News!!!

 Thought all scoring plays are reviewed? Should work both ways. Offence better wake up. Jets are down 4 defensive backs and we got the ball to start the game. Tomlin better put a good show on for Trump or he might work for MD's
 

If Fields could learn the touch pass, especially deep ball dropped in perfectly, he could be the best QB to ever play! But, that is just showing the strengths and weaknesses of these guys at the top level. Once Wilson settled in, he looks like a guy that can be the reason why they win games. He looked like hot garbage early though. Can’t say he was why they won, still the defense. But the offense for the first time in a while, looked on par with the defense. Granted, half of Jets defense was in the injury tent… I would have loved to see Fields look like this, plus his legs, get him for cheap for the long run. But also would love a $500k per year job, getting BJs and grabbing ladies by their yummy meat too. But, I’m not a circus clown, so can only dream.

George was the difference in the passing yards.

He must not have been on the roster the first six games?
