Say it, Cam. Russ is a heck of a lot better than Philly’s back up is.
You mean phillys third QB?? Kenny gotta compete for that back up spot
Do you think Kenny will leave if he has to compete for #2
Cam is probably thrilled Pickett is gone, He had the defense out on the field so much he probably took an extra season off all their careers.
That was also a problem in Denver. Will be a problem in Pittsburgh again next year.
@johnnyblazers lmao Denver sucks
@@TheManWhoFlys22 I don't disagree
The quarterback who sucked last year was Mitch
The only problems Kenny had was that he couldn't stay healthy, and his supporting cast, 18, and 88, were injured when he played. They were healthy for Mason.
Kenny played well against Cincinnati, Baltimore, Los Angeles, and Vegas.
He was never as bad as people thought he was even when he was dealing with the fucking idiot Matt Canada.
The bottom line is the defensive players who recruited Wilson need to worry about their own side of the fucking ball and stop getting destroyed in the playoffs.
They're running out of scapegoats.
And they'll turn on Wilson in a minute, to avoid any accountability.
That’s a future hof right there
real recognize real, and there's a reason the main steelers guys (minkah, tj, cam) all advocated for russ !
Not only that, they REALly knew Kenny didn’t have the top tier potential. Could be a decent starter but a top 5 QB? More than likely no
I have belief in Russell wilson but I'm pretty sure any guy that would come in they would look for the positives and voice them.
im not talking bout what he said in this video lol the guys I mentioned all recruited Russ and pushed for him before he was a Steeler, they woulda done that with any QB but they chose the guy with the most wins thru a decade in nfl history@@alanbirch469
With friends like Cam Heyward you don't need enemies.
Publicly supports Pickett.
And privately stabs him in the back.
I don't think Walter Payton would approve.
I wonder if they can call for a re-vote?
Kenny Pickett is the defense's latest scapegoat.
They will turn on Russell Wilson in a minute, to avoid any kind of accountability.
Pickett wasn't the problem at quarterback last year.
Mitch was.
If this fails? 90, 97, and 39 can go right out the door with Wilson.
They want to play GM? They can suffer the consequences.
Cam represents the Steelers well. Let's go Steelers
We should win at least one playoff game this year. Either way, super excited to see what we look like.
I'm curious, be honest, how many complete Broncos games did you watch? You know it's zero
@@johnnyblazers Doesn’t matter. This is a new opportunity for him. And last season he was better than Kenny Pickett by far.
Yea, we don't mind someone who may throw pics a little more, but he also triples in TDs with less talented receivers. Upside. 👆
@@steelersgoingfor7706 that's cute that you think stats exactly translate over.
@collectordk4334 to say he was far better, you must have been watching Broncos games. How many did you watch?
Steelers nation cam Heyward son of iron head Heyward is an OG Steelers legend and I am a OG Steelers fan and I will never stop rooting for my Pittsburgh Steelers we are on the stairway to seven as we currently speak here we go Steelers here we go 🖤🖤🖤💛💛💛
Pickett is in the rear view and that's a good thing.
Cam wanted to say… “and then Lenny P ran away and threw a tantrum.” 😂 love ya Cam, you’re a beast!!
Russ will kill it for the Steelers.
That’s what Denver thought
Just remove "it for" and that will be accurate. Our pathetic Broncos are glad to buck him to you.
@@meorsoithought the last time the Broncos made the playoffs Peyton Manning was still in the league 2015??? 😂. I don't think we can blame Russ for that.
@@meorsoithought exactly. Broncos fans who watched all the games knew how bad that offense flowed with him under center. The numbers don’t tell the story
@@meorsoithought Your pathetic Broncos will fare even worse in the future. Russ deserves better. Headed for SB with the Steelers!
I really think the Steelers were hoping to bring Mason Rudolph back this year, but he had to wait until free agency opened up to talk to teams and Wilson did not. Considering that Wilson cost nearly nothing, it was a easy move. Mason scored points back during what I call his "rookie" year, the first year he actually started, and he scored points this year, I think his QB rating was something like 115.
But once Wilson was hired, it was over for Mason, he was not returning to #3 and clearly, Kenny did not think it was fair for him, to be #2. Huge sign of immaturity on Kenny's part. His best bet was #2 and wait for Wilson to fail or just get too old. Even if he was good, that means the Steelers were NOT getting a top 10 draft pick. Now Kenny sits behind a young player who is very good.
That opened the door for Fields and now the Steelers have two, count them TWO, maybe's. They both got dumped by their teams, they both looked bad and they both might actually look better, playing for a team that paid nothing for them, meaning, a playoff team that can repair some holes in the lineup and make the quarterback better. Such as a better Center.
100% Agree
Steelers plan was to have Mason and Kenny back.
But the defensive players went out and recruited Wilson on their own, and when they told Tomlin that they were getting him to play here he went on board with it.
Mason's agent flew to Pittsburgh to finalize the contract that they had agreed to. Only to be told that Russ was coming so they pulled the offer from the table
Mason calls Pickett, as they were supposed to practice together the next day.
That night Kenny tried to call Tomlin but he wouldn't answer the phone
The next day Kenny met with Tomlin who told him that Russ was the unquestioned starter and there wouldn't be a competition
And that's when Kenny asked for a trade
As he damn well should have.
Cam Heyward and his defensive buddies stabbed both of them in the back, and made Tomlin look like a liar.
Because at the end of the season press conference after they were eliminated from the playoffs Mike Tomlin already said his quarterback for next season was already on the roster and the only quarterback that had a contract when he said it was Kenny.
nice
Love it how the haters are SCARCE on these videos when Cam/TJ/Minka say it like it IS about coach Tomlin/Russell Wilson......they hide like cowards when the REAL dudes who ACTUALLY know what's up speak.....HILARIOUS!!!!!
The real dudes know what's up? Hate to break it to you, those steelers were busyplayibg games on Sunday, they were not watching Wilson. They are just saying the right words.
@@johnnyblazers Bullshit.
Bullshit? So are you claiming g the Steelers, who play on Sunday, somehow found time (or even cared) to watch Wilson's games?
@@johnnyblazers And YES.....they have ALL played games against Wilson.
Not against Wilson in Denver
MOUNTAIN CLIMBERS
6 MONTHS I BEEN TRAINING FUR THIS
I'd feel much better about this QB room rebuild,and I'm very excited about it) if we kept Diontae. His ability to produce will be missed, and the guys they've picked up so far as replacement aren't close. Draft!!! Center in Rd 1, wr in 2nd, and one of the 3rd picks as well
Russell Wilson is going to get Sean Peyton Fired 😂!!! 24 TDs Doesn't mean You Suck!! Didn't He Beat Pat Mahomes and the Chief's? 😂😂 Was That Bronco's Defense ONLY?😂😂😂 These Haters will be eating 38 Million of their own Oats AND for ANYONE Who Thinks Field's will Start this year Over Russ.. Well Didn't Russ Beat Field's and the Bears Too.. Allen and the Bill's Too!! What Are Y'all Talking About 😂😂😂😂
You mean the Chiefs game where the D created 5 turnovers and held the chiefs to 9 points?
Yes Russell threw 3 touchdowns. Must of been tough when they were for 11, 5 and 4 yards and with all that short field. Don't worry about the whopping 114 yards he threw or the 6 sacks and 1 fumble he lost.
Without Russell, no chance any other QB in the league could put up 10 points off of 5 turnovers.
@@johnnyblazers the chiefs had a amazing defense last year. So putting up against them wasn't easy. 24 was a lot. Yes the defense played well but let's remember Denver had a 30th rank (DVOA) defense last year. They did get cooked by Sam Howell. They let Mia score 70 points.
@@Joel_Aleman you really aren't that bright. Broncos D came up with 5 turnovers. 5 turnovers. I know it's tough to score in that situation. Wilson only needed to throw 114 yards to get those 24 points. Must have been some long fields
@@johnnyblazers that's one game buddy. In football there are 17 games in the regular season. The defense had 2-3 solid games. This was their best game. Patrick mahomes was under the weather apparently which is why he played poorly if you believe the rumors.
You sound foolish....stop making excuses. RUSSELL WILSON beat 5 if the top 7 teams in NFL@@johnnyblazers
Cam da fam, superbbowls now, no flimflam
*WHO RIDE* !?!?
Steelers playoff drought is crazy
A positive Russ story so only 12 cooments.
Benton should be starting this year. I would of traded Cam by now
Is that Campbell🤔
By Russ’s third year in Pittsburgh, everybody is going to be looking back at Pete Carroll and wondering why he wasted Russ’s mid-prime 2016-2021.
Yep also trading for Jamal Adams vs drafting OL.
For sure. Always held back, always trailing by bad play calling, then asking Russ to use his magic to bail them out. Imagine if they unleashed Russell in 1st quarter instead..
Pete was ok with just a good season. Russ wanted SBs. That was the rub. Russ left. But there's still love there.
Payton is psycho.
That's comical. Russ won't even be on the Steelers in 3 years.
The best part, we get to see who's right.
@@johnnyblazers : If this year goes the way it should, Tomlin and Russ will be there, and Fields will either be converted to receiver or shipped out to a QB desperate team. Cousins could get injured again. Anyone buying this bs about Fields replacing Russ anytime this season is just a Russ hater who mistakes Fields for Lamar Jackson, and tbh, I’m not even sure LJ could beat out a p!ssed-off Russ.
Cam won't say the real reason why they recruited Wilson.
And it had nothing to do with Kenny's play.
The quarterback who sucked last season was Mitch.
Kenny's only downfall was that he was injured too much last season.
But he didn't play nearly as bad as people are trying to convince themselves he did.
Capitan CAAVVVEEMMAAAAAANNNNNN
If there is a fair competition Fields will beat him out

I hope you're right, but I'm putting money on you're not.........my bet is russ is replaced by mid-season. And this is the end.
Bronco fans crying, just like the Ravens fans with Queen lol. I guess Broncos fans have at least a little bit of justification though.
So when Fields out plays Russ do the Steelers actually acknowledge it, or do they hit him with the Mason Rudoulph treatment and make the wrong decision once again? If the Steelers go into this off season anointing Russ the Starter then the Steelers have already put themselves in poll position to make a BAD decision. This should be a TRUE QB COMPETITION!!
The backup QB is always great on every team until they have to go out and play in real football games. Rudolph played so well that he earned the right to go hold the clipboard for another franchise as a backup there as well 🙄. All 3 of the qb's on Pitts roster the last 2 years will all be backups for other teams this coming season. So saying one was better than the other isn't saying much at all 😂
JF too many fumbles turnovers he looses games.
@michaelbooth4998 I believe they both had 10 fumbles in 2023, meaning Russ and Fields.
@@BesTiCaN1000difference is Russ had 26 TDs even though he missed final 3 games. Fields can’t say that.
@manifestra2003 Actually, it was Fields had 20, and russ had 29 and fields missed 5 games as well.
Copium
People are perplexed at the Steelers enthusiasm because they buy into that false narrative that he has declined. It just isn’t true!
Nick Wright, who has been promoting the narrative that Russ is no good anymore, low-key admitted that Russ strategically manipulated things last season to pad his stats and drive Sean Payton crazy. Well, guess what! Payton was trying to tank, and Russ strategically navigated that because he knew he would be leaving one way or another. How can a QB be washed yet good enough to manipulate an offense to get his money and nearly lead that same team to the playoffs while his coach is trying to tank?
It makes no sense. The Russ we know from Seattle never went anywhere except to a lousy situation in Denver. .
The other head-scratcher is that everyone is expecting Aaron Rodgers to return from his career-threatening injury at age 40 and play MVP football in 2024 while expecting a 35-year-old Russ to lose his starting spot to Justin Fields, a QB who over 4 years hasn’t even shown himself to be an NFL-caliber starting QB.
Fields has shown terrific athleticism, but he has some people drooling thinking he’s another Lamar Jackson. He might not even be starting QB caliber.
I think Fields should consider switching to WR/QB2/PR/KR or WR/QB3/PR/KR.
Fields isn’t LJ because LJ is a much better passer. He can at least hit SOME tight window throws. Fields only hits the layups…wide-open receivers.
Secondly, what has LJ done besides win two MVPs on the backs of loaded squads and lead a team with 15 Pro Bowlers to a first-round playoff exit?!
Is THAT what Steelers fans want? Is that what fans and media outside of Pittsburgh believe constitutes success?
Even more ridiculously, these folks are expecting Kirk Cousins to have more success with Atlanta and remain their starting QB for the next five years, despite his also coming off of a gruesome leg injury and having an abysmal playoff record.
Russ is still a top QB if not an elite one. Have people looked at him lately? He’s ripped! He looks greasy fast. He has a hungry look in his eyes like a man possessed.
There’s no way Fields beats out Russ this year, and I would bet money that Russ plays better than Rodgers and Cousins this year. People need to pump the breaks on trying to push Russ out of the league.
Yeah, Nick wright has a personal vendetta against Russ so I do not trust anything he says about him.
The Steelers are a good fit for Wilson, much better than the Broncos. However, Wilson's decline began in Seattle. On top of that he was never an elite QB, he was a very good player on a team that catered not only to his strengths, but covered for his weaknesses. The minute he wanted them to let him cook, they jettisoned him. The results of let Russ cook under Hackett are well documented.
In regards your comments of Nich Wright's take of Wilson protecting his TD-Int ratio, are those the actions of a good leader? His ego and baby-kissing ways have followed him from Seattle to Denver and most likely came along with him to Pittsburgh.
It took LJ a couple sof years under great coaching and a stable organization to be who he is today. Ummm what team was fields drafted by... remember Lamar fell to the ravens fields was a top 5 pick for a reaaon...
@@justadude-sp4fxyour reference to Russ not cooking under Hackett, a guy who was NEVER remotely close to HC material, is absurd. Brady, Manning & Rogers would NEVER cook under a horrible coach like Hackett. How the hell was that Russ’ fault? And save us with the baby kissing crappy narrative. Nobody says anything when Drew Brees and “lighter complexion” QBs do the baby kissing. Star QBs all have egos. And 9X Pro bowler Russ is a star QB regardless of your opinion. Ben Roethlesberger benefited tremendously from #1 ranked defenses and strong rushing attacks by Bettis and Parker that covered his weaknesses. BUT no one marginalizes Ben like they do Russ. I wonder why. 🤔
@@manifestra2003Oh wow, no, I get it, you do not have much or an argument, so you gotta go that way.
Rodgers did cook under Hackett. That is why Hackett got both the Broncos and Jets gigs btw. Much like Gase got a HC job due to Manning and McDaniels got two HC jobs due to Brady. Both Gase and McDaniels stints as HCs showed that they were less than suited for the jobs they got due to established QBs playing for them.
Oh and I could care less how many babies QBs Warren Moon, Doug Williams, Lamar Jackson or C.J Stroud kissed, but somehow it became very obvious that it was very important to Russ, much more important than anything else.
Cam, ALWAYS the great teammate and leader. The Steelers brought in TWO UFL QBs, and this season is going to be bitterly disappointing.
We’ll see
Steelers just got rid of 3 UFL QB's this off-season. Corrected that for you.I know auto correct doesn't always work at times 🙂
Yeah.....most UFL QB's have been to two Superbowls and won one....also threw 28 TD's last year with 8 Ints. Yeah.....sounds about right......
@@gregd6706
Ben threw 33 TD passes in 2020 add Tomlin tried to get him off the team and start Dwayne Haskins in 2021 before he was overruled by Art II who brought Ben back.
So don't use Wilson's statistics to justify what Tomlin did to Pickett.
Because Tomlin didn't care about statistics when the white guy from Ohio threw 33 touchdown passes in his next to last season and won 12 games.
Maybe 3 or 4 years ago. Russ is washed
He's not wash last 5 years over 100 TD
Kenny Pickett got drafted wash and a big GIrl that he was
