Me: “Kenny Pickett does this thing where he turns into Joe Montana late in the fourth quarter.”
Her: “Who’s Joe Montana?”
It is frustrating.
However, I can't get how Ben played in his only season with Canada out of my head.
Just take a peek at the split stats and notice how both QBs played badly in Qs 1-3, then turned into Montana in the 4th. They nearly mirror each other.

This is why I cannot and will not write of KP until I see him for a season with a different O coordinator.
This does not absolve KP of all of his shortcomings, he needs to play better, but you've got to give him a shot with someone else.
