Greg Cosell: Steelers Need To See Kenny Pickett More In Current Style Of Offense Before Knowing What He Can Be

On the most recent episode of the Ross Tucker Football Podcast, Tucker and NFL film guru Greg Cosell broke down whether or not Kenny Pickett is a quarterback that the Steelers can actually win with. While the team’s currently 7-5, Pickett is out for at least one week and more likely longer with an ankle injury, and his performance hasn’t been why the Steelers are winning. Cosell believes that the Steelers can’t make that determination until they see him in an offense that prioritizes using the middle of the field and being aggressive downfield, That’s what the Steelers were doing more often in the last two weeks under Eddie Faulkner at offensive coordinator, with Mike Sullivan calling plays, but Pickett’s injury limits the time he’ll spend getting to prove that he can be a winning quarterback.
