@TheDavidRiveraa@relley40 That's my problem with Allar. It's not his physical talents. He's pretty good with those traits. It's his ability to step up. IMO, he won't lose you the game but he's not the guy leading the charge in those one score need a 1st down or TD situations.
@BrettCWilliams@relley40 If Allar were to get coached up and figure it out his ceiling is through the roof though. I don’t mind it. I don’t love it either though I see both sides for sure.
We’ve got literal Steelers fans praying on a Steeler QBs down fall because he went to PSU and not Pitt
Does any non Pitt fan seriously like that part of the fanbase ?
I don’t have any problem with the school itself, but the fans are just always wrong.
@TheDavidRiveraa@relley40 I don't like Allar bc I saw him falter in big moments. Taking Allar in the 3rd cost us some players that would contribute right away, whereas Will Howard did not. For me it's the opportunity cost associated with Allar.
@BrettCWilliams@relley40 Yeah that’s a fair take lol but you can’t like Howard and not Allar imo. I mean it’s 2 dart throws at QB who you didn’t invest much into. If one hits great, if not at least they tried.
@SCityNATION412 Steelers haven't won a SB since 2009. Not sure we should trust the process. But agree we are overreacting to picks. The 1st step is admitting to having a problem! 🤣
@TheJonTebay@MinkahBurgh39 100% I never root against a guy the Steelers draft. I get annoyed at both sides for blindly attacking/defending bc of WHERE the guy played. I watched a ton of PSU games last year. Just not sold on Allar's ability in big moments. All the physical traits, none of the intangibles.
@BrettCWilliams@MinkahBurgh39 Totally agree with the first half. We root for a logo. I hate PSU and Bama. That said, I root for their players once they become Steelers. Not that hard of a concept.
@VRuoste I loathe OSU, PSU, ND and even WVU. However, I never cast dispersions on the players based on where they are from.
Muth,JPJ...love them.
Frazier, love him.
Cam and a slew of other, love them.
Just draft the best avaialable.
If you are a Pitt/Penn State/Ohio State fan, I will automatically discard your opinion about the Steelers QB situation for the sake of keeping my sanity. Hell, let's throw in the WVU fans as well for good measure.
@lcgarbage@TraiDay79 I would have moved on from Arod but they aren't. He's coming back and our backups are going to be 2 guys that haven't taken an NFL game snap.
@TraiDay79 Regardless, I think they need to tell Rodgers to enjoy retirement. They have to see what they have. Three way competition in camp. I don’t care if they have a losing season.
@pitt_fan51 ARod is absolutely coming back. Mason is either being traded or cut. Steelers might hold on to him until camp injuries happen then trade him.
What I do hope the Allar pick means is Rodgers is done. Figure it out before the draft next year. Let Will and Drew battle it out. Give one of them a shot. If they pan out, great. If not, you suck bad enough and you are a top 10 pick next year.
Steelers loading up on offensive lineman is what I wanted them to do the year they drafted Pickett
Reach
Just build the line and run the fuck out of it like Barry Foster years and find your QB while you do it
@SteelersWin109 That's like saying after not financially planning I'm good now because I bought a lottery ticket. In big games Allar hasn’t proven he can win. Not sure that can be coached. Mechanics yes, the "it factor" no.
Blows my mind that people are so bitterly upset about a third round QB dart throw on a high ceiling guy when the team has been directionless for so, so long.
There’s a common denominator among many of them, and it has to do with their favorite college team
@DonChed54 Trade up to get both ILB and DL. I'm still annoyed that we grabbed Allar instead of Orange. I'm not crazy about Everette but feel like he'll contribute.
The most important thing for a quarterback is his decision making.
Drew Allar is a TERRIBLE decision maker. Doesn’t matter what kind of size or arm strength he has.
