All this for a guy who's basically Joe Flacco at this point.

But also a wild d-bag, potential locker room cancer and a media circus.

This might actually put the nail in Tomlin's coffin.

It would probably be best for him and the Steelers both. Just seems like coaches run their course in the NFL. The message gets stale and both the coach and the team just need a change. The Steelers right now just seem to be completely embracing mediocrity. Forget winning more rings, let's just be happy if we make the dance. Two washed up retread QBs back to back just trying to cling to that mediocrity. I guess the Russ experiment didn't teach them anything. Now you're going with an older, even bigger egomaniac coming off an Achilles tear at 40. These guys aren't going to magically dial the clock back a decade. It is what it is. These dudes are washed and honestly so are the Steelers as a franchise in their current state.

would probably be best for the steelers to have a massive reboot, but i'm quite content them being on this path they seem to be content to be on.

It's a dicey situation for sure.  The devil you know and all.   And moving on from Tomlin would be risky as hell.   They are just in qb purgatory

I still can't believe they drafted Kenny Pickett in the 1st round.

Reports are that he's the worst player - the worst PLAYER overall, not just the worst QB - at Cleveland OTAs.

Probably the single most embarrassing thing since the butt fumble.

No one had ever seen a person get thrown by a football before. It was like that ball weighed 150 pounds and was super glued to his hand. LOL

Worse than Gabriel is insane. That's "about to be out of the league" status.

That draft really will go down as the worst class in NFL history for QB's. If it wasn't for Purdy, there wouldn't be a single NFL QB in the entire thing.

But, the most impressive of all is us picking the only one of them that ended up never seeing an NFL game.

Rodgers couldn't get back to the Super Bowl in his best years in the NFC which has weakened significantly over the last decade. The odds of him leading the Steelers to a deep postseason run in this iteration of the AFC with pissed off teams out looking for revenge like the Chiefs Bills and Ravens is nil.

Yeah, Corral was a pretty big bust for a 3rd rounder. You're not necessarily expecting to find a long-term starter at QB in the 3rd, but damn you at least hope to get a solid backup out of it or a guy who at least makes some noise and gives you some hope. Corral just immediately looked like a guy who had no business in an NFL camp much less on a roster.
