Coldfronts Posted April 14, 2022 Share Posted April 14, 2022 Wallace decided to leave the bills based on the color of his underwear. "Honestly, I was on the fence of either staying with Buffalo or going to Pittsburgh. And ultimately, when my agent called, and he was like, ‘You should think about going to Pittsburgh.’ I said, ‘OK, I’ll call you back, let me pray about this.’ I prayed, and I said, ‘Lord, if you want me to go to Pittsburgh, let me know, give me a sign.’ Man, I’m just sitting there, just contemplating, and I looked down, and bro, I had black and gold shorts on,” Wallace said. “I was like, ‘Do you know what?’ There it is. There’s a sign. The Lord must want me to go to Pittsburgh. And I honestly just called my agent back and was like, ‘let’s go, let’s do it.’" 1 1 1 1 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slippery Rubber Mats Posted April 14, 2022 Share Posted April 14, 2022 What if the color of Levi Wallace's undergarments in March 2022 (and whatever the Lord's involvement in that was) was the reason we ultimately don't win a Super Bowl this year? Something to think on for you guys that like to worry. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
msw2112 Posted April 14, 2022 Share Posted April 14, 2022 (edited) If this is all how it went down (and according to Wallace, it is), he made a poor decision. He could have remained a starter on a Super Bowl contender, or go to a lesser team where he has not established himself. Also, the Bills system is very favorable to DBs - I don't know if the Steelers system can say the same. Finally, the Bills were the team that "gave him his shot" as a UDFA, so some guys are loyal in that way, although he also gave back to the team by playing well at a low salary. From what I understand, the Steelers offer wasn't more than what he would have gotten from the Bills. EDIT: If the Steelers' offer was significantly larger than the Bills' then I'm fine with his decision. More money is a legitimate reason to take one offer over another, particularly when you came in as a UDFA and are not making the big bucks that some of the other guys in the league are making. (Based on the limited information I have seen, the Steelers' offer was not a game-changer and probably not more than he would have gotten from the Bills.)

Kindly remind them that Mahomes is one of the best QB's in the game and that a 5 year old girl can throw a football farther then Tua. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MJS Posted April 14, 2022 Share Posted April 14, 2022 This was already discussed. And he said shorts, right?

Yobogoya! Posted April 14, 2022 Share Posted April 14, 2022 This staff is very strong at coaching up the secondary. They get average play out of sub-average players, get above-average play out of JAG's and can unlock elite play in those who are truly gifted. However they replace Levi, we'll be fine. The only question is whether his play declines in Pitt. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
