Pickett was always an ominous name for an NFL QB….
That aside, this current moment in time might be the weakest the league has ever been at QB. Just past the halfway point, and Rodgers, Jones, Watson, Burrow, Richardson, and Cousins have all suffered season ending injuries. That’s 20% of the league that’s lost their franchise QB before Thanksgiving - unbelievable. On top of that, Fields, Carr, and Ridder have all missed extensive time due to injury. Bryce Young has been a whiff. Pickett having a rough year 2. Lawrence and Mac Jones both having a rough year 3. Geno Smith coming back to Earth. Tannehill and Garropolo played like crap and got benched for mediocre rookies. Even Josh Allen is having a down year, for him.
I mean Jared Goff might be a legit Top 5 QB out of what’s left. Sam Howell’s a Top 10 QB among what’s left. Its pretty depressing. That’s Pickett’s only saving grace….Steelers have plenty of company in their QB misery. Both in their division and across the league.
