@PittsburghTiger I want to thank your team again for willing to trade us Pickens. I didn't keep up with him a lot at Pitt. Any reason why y'all wanted to cut bait? Locker room issue?

They had shitty QBs and he complained about it, rightfully so.

Hang that November Trophy in the sunlit Ring of Honor.

No Cowboy fan under 40 even remembers an important Cowboy win.

Lol.  I saw your handle and assumed you were talking about Tech.  I was going to tell you to add about 60 to your 40.

It’s more the offensive line sucking ass for the past decade. And as long as Roethlisberger was playing they could avoid a rebuild because, “Ben will get us through”. Pickens was, at times, a complete asshole. No doubt about that but, as Pam said, the QB play has been bad (and that includes my Pitt Guy Kenny Pickett) and Pickens got pissed, a lot, and threw tantrums. And I am sure they carried over into the locker room.

I don’t really blame him. I’d have been a bit less public with it but, it’s Picken’s career and his job is to catch passes and the passes were not getting to he, or any other receivers. I said, when he was traded, that he had a world of talent. And he does. If he can keep from being an asshole he has Hall of Fame talent.

When he was in college, I thought he had JJ/Jamarr Chase type of talent. Steelers really just never were able to get him the ball. He had a lot of "almost" great plays.

LOL.  Not quite 60, 40, or 100.

The miracle of VY is that he got that hyper talented squad across the line, even with all of the obstacles.  What, 53 of the starting 22 made the NFL, and they still had to fight like hell to overcome Mack Brown???

EDIT: There was a famous locker room incident which involved Greg Lloyd going after the offense and telling them, basically, “Now your incompetence is fucking with my money. So wake the fuck up”. That was in the 90s with Neil “and the pass was intended for” O’Donnell. And at times the offense was horrendous.

Yep.  And I'm just giving you shit. Dad's from Matador and a Tech fan.  I can't talk shit to him as he takes it personally.  Good luck in the playoffs

That dumb loss to Arizona is looming large right now. Just keep winning. 
To me, it's the Green Bay game. We got dominated out the gate and never really had a chance against Arizona. It was a terrible loss but we didn't really blow it in game. But the Green Bay game, so many missed opportunities to get that win at the end.

Don't forget the Carolina game. Had many opportunities to get that win but failed in the end.

How dare you besmirch Super Bowl XXX MVP Neil O’Donnell?

I remember Pickens pouting and taking plays off in Pittsburgh, wouldn’t run route if not getting ball, blocking, etc… think I even commented he should be kicked out of the league for his bullshit. He’s been a godsend for Dallas no denying that.
