Defense has a lot of injuries at middle LB and secondary and Tomlon lost control of the team. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hardcore troubadour 13,540 Posted December 20, 2023 There’s no doubt Tomlin gets his guys to play for him. Except that child George Pickens. I was pissed when the Giants passed on him due to character concerns. I’m not anymore. He’s 100 pct turd. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It stems from Tomlin's very conservative offense to not turnover the ball and the wr's are getting the ball and are acting out. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

OldMaid 1,878 Posted December 20, 2023 I think next year will see some big improvements. Firing Canada mid-season didn’t fix the problem-as they couldn’t exactly re-write the whole playbook. They’re still stuck with what he left them. The morale problems should right themselves after that. To say there isn’t talent on this team is stupid. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They don't have a quarterback, they don't have a WR1, they don't have a TE, ok RBs (Najee sucks), & the o-line sucks. - Neither Trubisky or Pickett is a franchise QB. Both are backups at best. - Dionte Johnson and Pickens are nice players, neither is a WR1 but would make very nice WR2s. - Najee Harris is slower than a slug on Fentanyl, Warren is a nice complimentary back but that's all he is. - Friermuth is as average as you'll get Where's all this talent on offense??

OldMaid 1,878 Posted December 20, 2023 I think Pickett is going to rebound next year after they fix the whole Canada mess. Maybe not Purdy level, but I think he’ll be fine. Pickens might arguably be the most talented WR in the league if he could get out of his own way. I think part of his problem is just frustration, but we’re used to drama queen WR’s. Najee and Warren have both flashed some signs of being quite good when things are firing on all cylinders. Freiermuth, too, so GFY on those. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He's a nice WR, he's not in the same conversation as Justin Jefferson, Tyreek Hill, Kupp or Jamar Chase. As for Pickett, He was having one of the worst NFL seasons OF ALL TIME prior to getting hurt. 6 TDs & 4 interceptions in 12 games. It doesn't get worse than that.
