So you wrote about Pickens. Do you feel as though they have a problem with this kid despite his town? Oh
00:08
I do absolutely and I think it was very well reflected. I I'll be honest
00:13
I was working at the big net 10 networks up could only pay casual attention to the Steelers for much of the game
00:20
but I saw the offensive pass interference of
00:24
against Pickens that was
00:26
Essentially the end of the Steelers serious contention they had a
00:32
Punchers chance, I guess in the fourth quarter when they were unable to complete their their
00:37
series down
00:39
2814 but when he pushed off
00:42
They were still in the game and he did not need to push off on that play
00:47
But that's who he is as a player. Take the easy way out
00:51
It's been it's who he's been as a Steeler for two for his entire time there
00:57
It's it's ultimately a disappointment. I don't think they can afford to trade him unless they are able to sign an elite
01:04
Or significant wide receiver in the offseason as a free agent
01:08
I use T Higgins is the best example of that because he plays in the division and I'm aware of it
01:14
But I I don't think they can afford to let him go
01:17
But if they are able to sign someone like T then I would trade him
01:21
Because you've waited three years now for him to stop this and I think it's pretty clear. It's not going to happen
01:28
Just as it became clear after they gave Deontay Johnson money and he stopped blocking
01:33
That that it wouldn't it really wasn't the way to go forward with him
01:41
I mean, that's four teams in a calendar year basically in one year. Yes
01:46
Yes, I think that he's he's he's indicated who he is as a player as well
01:52
Yeah, and it's a shame because he's a talented guy and it's just as it's a shame with Pickens
01:56
I what I wrote last week before the Baltimore game was look at the going rate for a receiver with that ability
02:05
You're talking north of 25 million dollars a year
02:09
Scott I know you have that much money, but I don't and if I did I think I'd be set for life
02:15
So, I don't know why Pickens doesn't seize that
02:19
And and just put his head down and do the things that you do to win games
02:23
And if he did that he'd be among the I don't know the exact number
02:26
but he'd be among the top seven or eight receivers in the league and
02:30
And that's that's a nine-figure payoff and he's not he's not going for it
