I agree with Winston going to Pittsburgh. But it won't restore their glory days. It is time for more substantial changes there. Like coaching.
Ayup.
As for Kaepernick, people are already forgetting that he lost his starting position and was benched for inadequate play.
The kid was on fire when he first started. I thought he was going to revolutionize the game. The league caught up, though. Quickly. RGIII, Kaepernick, and countless others… If you can’t throw, you can only run so long.
Lamar Jackson is already declining…
Now mobile QB’s or dual threat QBs are a different story. Josh Allen… Burrow… They’ll run, but their eyes are downfield the whole time looking for an opportunity to throw.
If Pittsburgh get’s a QB and the first highlight they show is him running the ball? SMH.. I actually walked away from the game for a while thanks to Kordell Stewart. I don’t want to do so again.
Remember Fran Tarkenton?
But both guys were great passers. And they could read their progressions.
That's my point. A QB needs to throw the ball. Period. Being able to run is great, but you gotta be able to make the throws and read the defense.
Like I said, if the first highlight of the new Steeler's QB is a running play, I will be pissed beyond words.
