The "Problem Child/Prodigal Son" was one of the first players to show up for the first round of OTAs (which are voluntary). I wonder if maybe it's possible for a 23 year old kid to gain maturity and learn how to be a professional. I also wonder if some of us aren't so scarred by the AB...
Some of these players act like they are completely blind to the realities of the roster.
Harrison at that stage of his career wasn't going to be taking a lot of snaps from a developing, yet promising TJ OR, a slowly ascending Dupree. Same with Blount, if he looked at Tomlin's history of using...
Tomlin? Yeah, I could see that.
I could also see him out after next season if this roster "retool" turns sideways. I don't, however, see them not giving him an extension this Summer.
Not apologizing for the pick, or Tomlin, but the local media, etc. has always said that Kenny was Colbert's pick. He wanted to give the franchise Ben's replacement before he left. That said, it's also been stated many times that under Colbert, the high round picks were made by concensus of...
Not to rain on any parades, and I may be wrong, but, don’t they usually handle Tomlin’s extensions closer to training camp? Like May or June. DK and Dulac have both said they don’t expect an extension until the Summer.
What about when ARll used pretty much the same words about Kenny after the season? Wasn’t that an endorsement? I mean they both committed to Kenny and claimed there would be competition for him.
I think they weren’t able to discuss Wilson or Fields at that time because of tampering rules. But, I...
Interesting that he didn't mention his former teammates in that post. Maybe a little more heat to the smoke signals that KP was not well-liked in the lockerroom.
JeMarcus Russell ... but only on work ethic. Dude literally ate and lazied himself out of the league. But, he had more talent than Kenny.
Ryan Leaf ... Probably also on work ethic. Maybe a worse attitude also.
I don't know if or think that Mr. Noll would even want to deal with today's players. I think that today's coaches are handicapped by the attitudes and feelings of entitlement of the players and the way CBA/FA is handled.
On the subject of the character of these 3 QBs.
Russel Wilson at least did the classy thing and posted a goodbye/thank you message to his ex-teammates, the Broncos team and the fans in Denver.
Justin Fields did the classy thing and posted a goodbye message to his ex-teammates, the Bears team...
Nah, I'm interested in knowing who on this board has ever complained about the QB of the Steeler's race. Like, put a name on it and back it up with a quote. Otherwise, he's just talking out the side of his neck and dog whistling.
