Steelers Making Bad Moves to Protect Kenny Pickett

The Pittsburgh Steelers have a very soft approach to their quarterback.

PITTSBURGH -- The Pittsburgh Steelers are being a little dramatic about Kenny Pickett as they approach year two of their (hopefully) next franchise quarterback. 

Pickett didn't showcase he's a star in year one. Did he look good at times? Yes. Very good at times? Yes. But overall, his rookie campaign was much as many expected, good signs for the future but plenty of improvement left before he's a good quarterback in the NFL. 

So, in year two, the Steelers are doing whatever they believe necessary for Pickett to hit that next level. Unfortunately, they're playing it way too safe and ruining the rest of the team by trying to take care of their new quarterback.

Plus, a former teammate of Ben Roethlisberger's is blaming the quarterback's attention on why the Steelers lost their last Super Bowl appearance. Apparently, someone was focused on MVPs not Lombardis.
