The Pittsburgh Steelers could be getting set to welcome the return for George Pickens star
00:07
wide receiver.
00:08
And it looks like they really have missed Pickens, getting it vertical, getting them
00:12
downfield.
00:13
They've dropped their last two and they're going against the reigning champs, the Kansas
00:16
city chiefs.
00:17
Yeah.
00:18
Well, let's, uh, this should be an interesting one as well, but, uh, the, uh, they need him.
00:24
They have absolutely no vertical threat defenses know it.
00:28
And what they have done is made Russell Wilson, very one dimensional dubs.
00:33
And when you do that, yeah, that's not exactly, uh, the best thing to do.
00:38
If you are the Steelers, you need Pickens, you need secondaries to worry about Pickens.
00:44
Uh, you've got to have that vertical threat.
00:47
You've got to have that one guy on the field, uh, that the secondary and the defenses are
00:52
worried about and they just don't have it.
00:54
Uh, and Russ is Russ ain't it by himself.
00:57
He needs, uh, can't do it with just a running back and a tight end.
01:01
Uh, you need a guy that can go vertical and it would be huge for them to be able to get
01:06
him back.
01:07
But quite honestly, at this point, make sure he's ready because I'd much rather have them
01:12
in January dubs available to me than try to hurry up on back from a hamstring, uh, issue
01:18
here to play a game against the chiefs who all but locked up the number one seed in the
01:23
AFC to begin with.
01:27
Yeah.
