00:00 In their list of priorities, making sure Kenny Pickett works out seems to be above
00:05 being a Super Bowl contender. And that's not going to work out in the long run. Because if it works
00:11 out and Kenny Pickett's the guy, cool. Then everybody looks like an idiot and you look like
00:16 geniuses. Cool. Sounds good. If it doesn't, you're sitting right back to where you were,
00:20 possibly in a worse spot because you don't have a quality backup instead of somehow finding what
00:27 Mason Rudolph was at the end of the season. And I think Kenny Pickett wins games. I think Kenny
00:32 Pickett leads you to a winning record. I think that's what Kenny Pickett brings. And I think
00:37 that's what the Steelers are capable of getting out of him. But it shouldn't be... That's not your
00:42 ball. And I think that's where people were hoping it changed this offseason. And it's not. And they
00:48 just... If they switch those two, if they said, "Well, we want to win a Super Bowl. And priority
00:52 two is making sure Kenny Pickett works out," you'd bring in tougher competition and you'd just
00:58 hope for the best. And you wouldn't be worried about taking a risk that maybe lowers the chances
01:03 of Kenny Pickett being that guy.
