So what prompted Steelers receiver Antonio Brown to go AWOL, only days after having his best game of the season? Some are pointing to the internal vote that resulted in not Brown but receiver JuJu Smith-Schuster being named the team’s MVP for 2018.

The team announced that Smith-Schuster won the award on Thursday. Not Brown, who was in the discussion for NFL MVP in 2017 — and who won his franchise-record fourth team MVP award last year.

 

Quote

“He was unreal in New Orleans, we still lost, and the vote comes out and it’s JuJu,” the unnamed source told Breer. “So [Brown] shows up for work, he’s not voted MVP, he’s in a bad way, and that carried over into the walkthrough.”

Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com reports that Brown wanted to see whether the Steelers would thrive without him, and whether Smith-Schuster would perform at a high level without Brown on the field to draw attention away from the second-year player.

Team MVP snub may have led to Brown's ire

Whoa... are we really boycotting and turning our nose up at Antonio Brown now? Are we so much better off without the best wr in the game that we can say no? Brown would instantly have a career second and rivaling panther all time great Steve Smith.

We just lost the last what 7-8 games of the seaso. And are picking at 16 and can say Antoine brown is a diva do not want? I don’t care if he was a A hole most great WRs(Smith was 2) are. He missed very few games due to injury and was borderline unstoppable reguardless of who was covering him. 

Again I think this whole he isn’t a nice guy approach is why we are a lower tier team consistently. Anyone that looks or has a stitch of stink on them we hard pass on. Any jenoris Jenkins, honey badger, larmey tunsil(turned out to be false) we stay far away from. Playing it safe.

i say you don’t win a violent game like football with Choir boys. Everyone has crazy people on their team and you need and would glad to have a few on your side. I give a hard yes to brown who is mildly problematic no real trouble with the law.

Antonio Brown has been low-key selfish for a long time. It’s finally coming to the surface. 

Carolina would be wise to steer clear of this mess.

  It hasn’t even low-key to any Steelers fan for about 5 years. But you’re correct most in the general public didn’t acknowledge it much. Ben is the same way. So was Bell. And Tomlin has let it go on to the point of no return. 

  I hope the Steelers trade him and don’t want him anywhere close to CAR.

Ummm...yeah. I would say exactly that.

If the Steelers trade him, they keep all his guaranteed money, he would be affordable from a cap standpoint. I doubt we would want to trade enough for the Steelers to agree to terms.

It's not the money.

Okay, it's not ALL about the money. Brown is 31 years-old. How long he plays at a high level is anyone's guess, but I would expect his behavior is not going to improve. In the meantime, the team trading for Brown gets a nice big salary cap hit.

I don't care if the coach is Rivera or someone else, I would rather they spend their time worrying about the entire roster than having to babysit one player on the team. Character DOES mean something.

Additionally, I would be more than willing to bet that Moore or Samuel or both are better and cheaper than Brown inside of three years, and I think I'm being generous with the three years.

      Young QBs lead their teams to undefeated October

      By KaseKlosed · Posted

      Young quarterbacks Drake Maye, Bo Nix, and Bryce Young have led their teams to undefeated records since October.   Drake Maye has guided the New England Patriots to a 5-0 record in that period, with 2,285 passing yards and 17 touchdowns in nine games. Bo Nix has directed the Denver Broncos to a 5-0 stretch, throwing for 1,976 yards and 17 touchdowns, contributing to a 7-2 overall start. Bryce Young, in his second season, has led the Carolina Panthers to a 4-0 run since October, accumulating 1,390 yards and 11 touchdowns amid a 4-4 record.   Undefeated QBs since start of October (min. 4 starts)   Drake Maye 5-0 Bo Nix 5-0 Bryce Young 4-0   Bryce Young when asked about his mindset during game winning drives: "You don’t rise to the occasion you fall back to the level of your training."

      Most hated teams

      1. Cowboys-No explanation needed. 2. Rest of NFC South equally. If I had to pick I would say Falcons.    3. Eagles- Both of the games I have attended there the fans were so horrible. The fan base is so ridiculously misbehaved, I’ve never seen such immaturity. 4- Lions- I have cousins in Michigan that grew up Lions fans and they are some of the most obnoxious people I have ever met, as are all of their Lions buddies. The NFL has been lucky that Detroit has been in the cellar for its eternity.    5. Tie between Bears and Vikings. Both act like Steelers, Cowboys, Niners fans do with nostalgia and legendary seasons but neither have ever really had them. They act like they each won 5 super bowls in previous decades but never accomplished poo outside of Chicago in 85.
