Maybe not but it's not like it's some prohibitive figure that is going to doom them for multiple years. So long as Mike Tomlin is coach, the Steelers will be just good enough to lack the ammo to get a top qb. What are they going to do next year after they finish 9-8 and Wilson sucks balls again?

Well, when you're the Steelers and a) are not in a position to land one of the top prospects in the draft and b) your previous QB had no upside with 13 tds in 25 games, it doesn't sound so bad to me

That is dirt cheap in today's QB landscape

He's without question better than anyone on their roster last year, as well as the vet minimum worthy Wilson. Pittsburgh can more than afford to pick up his option. What I don't get is the reporting I now see that he is not in a QB competition. If that's the case, why make the deal at all?

Agreed, but as much as I hated the Russel Wilson move this is a great deal for Pittsburgh. Hopefully Fields doesn't put it together and add to the AFC qb gauntlet

True but I'm not a fan of the Russell Wilson bridge idea. Regardless, Pickett having 13(!) career TD's in 25 games is laughably bad so Russ can't be any worse

This is just an awful post

Well rats

Don't quite understand the hate for Neal. It's obviously not a huge loss that we can't overcome, but he was a good role player for the Bills for 6 years 🤷

He's been such an outstanding citizen too. My heart breaks for Joe

I'm happy about this move, pending money of course. Needs to become more consistent but the ability is there. Draft and develop

No surprise here. KC would've been crazy to not bring him back

I wouldn't trade a bag of footballs for Jerry Jeudy. A name with little production to speak of and injury/attitude issues.

Hard pass. The dude is awful in coverage

People say this every year. There's a reason why - because the Bills have been very good

This

I would be disappointed if the Bills can't find a way to retain Epenesa. Young player who they drafted with a premium pick on the upswing

I can't believe the dude still calls in to WGR all the time. That's usually a cause to mute the radio

In all likelihood we would have lost by more. Flutie was straight garbage in 1999. That Titans defense was no joke

It's only 1 year. They're not signing him long term

My previous post about calming down on the hyperbole obviously went unnoticed. Where the @#$! did I say anything even remotely approaching this? I think everyone here understands that you're not a fan of Sean McDermott (and I would agree), but there's almost no shred of nuance or objectivity in anything you're saying. You make it sound like the plays made on the final drive were the equivalent of completing a pass in a 7 on 7 drill while wearing shorts in July.

And as we all know, Tua has been an extremely clutch QB who always comes through with the game on the line 🤷. To make a blanket statement such as yours and then apply it to the situation that occurred late in that game, with a trip to the AFC Championship on the line, is ridiculous. It's not a question of whether all those guys can make those throws, it's whether they would have executed in that moment. I am in no way absolving McDermott for his abject failure in that game, but let's pump the brakes on the hyperbole.

It was horrible defense. But do you really think, say, Trevor Lawrence or Tua would've pulled that off? I highly doubt it. Beyond the Bills charity, the 13 seconds disaster still required a high level of execution from the Chiefs and an innate understanding of how to quickly identify and attack the weakness in coverage (specifically the positioning of Levi Wallace) by 2 All Pro players in Mahomes and Kelce.
