It's perplexing how a guy like Pickett can go in the 1st round yet DTR can fall to the 5th.FantasyFreak wrote: ↑Sun Nov 19, 2023 1:36 pm Pickett is SOOOOO bad. He still doesn't understand his little spin move doesn't work in the NFL. He can't adapt to this level of football. The Steelers reached on him, but they are a good franchise. They need to cut loose the "home kid" crap, and move on. A good QB, and they can contend.
The TV announcers loved talking him up and crediting him for their recent wins. I'd say all he's done is not turn the ball over. The real credit goes to the defense IMO. Wilson finally eclipsed the 200 passing yard barrier this week though.Orenthal Shames wrote: ↑Sun Nov 19, 2023 8:45 pm Why did Denver pay Russ a mega contract to just use him like Andy Dalton?

Honestly, i hope it works out for the kid. He is talented
I didn't see any of the CLE-PIT game... I've already seen enough from Pickett to agree with FantasyFreak's opinion, but did DTR look good? Obviously not the best box score, but that rarely tells the whole story.Sriracha wrote: ↑Sun Nov 19, 2023 8:10 pmIt's perplexing how a guy like Pickett can go in the 1st round yet DTR can fall to the 5th.FantasyFreak wrote: ↑Sun Nov 19, 2023 1:36 pm Pickett is SOOOOO bad.

The difference in arm talent between these two is night and day.
Just change his name on Sleeper to Moses and he'll part the Red Sea.

There was a concerted effort to get the ball out early to avoid TJ Watt and Pitt's front 7 which resulted in a lot of short quick throws near the line of scrimmage. At one point they showed an infographic saying he averaged 2.15 seconds a drop back. They jumped out to an early lead and then basically sat on the ball the entire 2nd half with PIT cheating up to the line of scrimmage. There were anywhere from 6-8 drops by CLE receivers that game including a gimme TD by Njoku. The INT was off a deflection but he also had one other INT dropped by the defender (although it would've been a tough catch).BigJoeWall72 wrote: ↑Mon Nov 20, 2023 10:44 amI didn't see any of the CLE-PIT game...

He was throwing 40 yard (not vertically, but across the field) lasers with ease and after PIT tied the game up and they loosened up the playbook for him he went 4 for 4 for 39 yards to set up the game winning field goal.Users browsing this forum: Ahrefs [Bot] and 8 guests
