Mike Tomlin can explain it away all he wants. A great opposing defense. A focus on establishing the run. The winning model the Pittsburgh Steelers are trying to build. At some point, the blame for the Steelers’ continued offensive woes have to turn to one person. Their quarterback. Kenny Pickett.
Tomlin said he needed more. He’s right. We’re all still waiting for it.
I don’t want to dump on the guy each week. Because it’s not all his fault. Context, nuance, and patience are all important ingredients in evaluating a football player, especially a quarterback.
