Pickens is their 1b receiver, so not playing one of your best players for a critical game, even if for the proper moral reasons, is almost counter-intuitive to basic survival skills.
Given Tomlin's success in Pitt, I'm all for him getting canned and ya'll getting a crappy coach that can't win though!
also, I don't disagree with anything you're saying. And thus, it's a tough spot I'm glad I don't have to be in.
I disagree. There are guys in that locker room working their asses off despite the team spiraling out of control. The TJ Watt's, Jaylen Warren's, Mikna, and Cam Heyward's are going hard every day, but this guy is taking plays off?
It's only a matter of time before you lose those guys too.
If they lose a game they would have otherwise won on Saturday, so be it. The team will be better off in the long run. It's unbelievable to me that Pickens wasn't deactivated immediately after Tomlin hearing about that comment.
