@@Tmindful182 okay, buddy 😂 Russ’s stats were better actually solid last year, he led the league in 4th quarter comebacks, and he beat Patrick Mahomes and Josh Allen within a couple weeks of each other in addition to several red hot teams. He may not be up to what he was in Seattle, but just because Sean Payton hated his guts doesn’t mean he was bad at football.
I think Russ is better than half the starting NFL quarterbacks in the league. He isn't worth the 38 million a year, and the cap hit that he's costing Denver. He also isn't worth the 40 million a year that Atlanta is paying Kirk Cousins. But then again, neither is Kirk Cousins. Pittsburgh flat out stole this quarterback room. Spending that money on the rest of the team is smart.
What is so hard to figure out. Rich said it. The Steelers brought in Arthur to fix the offense. Obviously, Coach Smith decided what he needed to fix it.
That, and Omar Khan isn't the "let's just wait and see" GM that Kevin Colbert was. Colbert NEVER made risky moves like this. For the past decade, the Steelers have been known to hang on to high draft picks who turned out to be disappointing.

Russell wilson cost the steelers 1/3 of what they were offering mason rudolph (rumored). Was that a factor in deciding to bring russ in over re-signing rudolph? And while they wanted to stay with pickett, when he reacted the way he did, did it set things in motion for him to be traded? Is that possible?
They knew Rudolph was going to get better offers from other teams. They've always publicly claimed they want to keep even players they know need to be gone. Rudolph thinks he should be a starter, and he's not. Pittsburgh would've kept him as a backup, but that wasn't his choice. Yes, the contract amount was a huge reason to grab a QB who is far better than what they had.
This is an exciting time for Steelers fans and it's because of Omar Khan and Andy Weidl, not Fields or Wilson. Who knows if either QB get them out of the playoff drought - Personally I like their chances, but the fact is the Steelers new management is trying to correct the mistakes prior management made and are making moves were not used to seeing. I'd rather strike out swinging than never stepping up to the plate, and Omar and Co. are taking swings.
NO fan that actually watches football thought Fields was going to be traded for the 8th pick. That’s just the legit propaganda the media pushes. He’s not worth a pick higher than the 4th round,
Yes, yes, it's so very mysterious why the Steelers weren't all in on Pickett and didn't ignore Wilson and Fields out sheer gratitude and respect for Pickett's Hall of Fame trajectory at this point. The only mystery is why they didn't coax Tom Brady out of retirement to back up Pickett in the hopes that Pickett could show Tom a few tricks. I truly think you guys should spend more time investigating this further.
Steeler fans so happy they got for free, but Steelers announced Russ to start this year and intend to sign new contract.... how they supposed to evaluate Fields real worth before his 5th year option? smh lol
after seeing his market on the trade block, I don't think it'll cost much to extend/re-sign him. No need in exercising the 5th year option before seeing him play games for them.
That’s because Poles wanted to accommodate Fields, he said it during combine. I’m sure we could have gotten better from other teams that Fields didn’t want to go to. Not a great business decision but I respect a man of his word.
We'll never know if it's what happened, or if Poles simply couldn't get a NOTABLY better deal. But it's good optics for Poles, and a hell of a thorn out of Poles's side.
I live in the greater Pittsburgh area. Let me give you some advice Mr. Eisen. The Steelers don't talk to the local media because the local media is negative around here. That's why they're the last to know when they pull moves off like this and that's why they always call you up with negatively about Tomlin. Keep your positive perspective about Tomlin and the Steelers. Do yourself a favor and don't listen to the local media. Your original take on Tomlin is correct. He dragged 3 below average quarterbacks to 10 wins and gets no credit for it.
Don't be shocked if and when Justin takes Russ' job, though. After all, the signing of Russ seems more like a bridge signing while the signing of Fields seems like something for the long term. If they can iron out whatever few flaws he has left, then the Steelers are going to be just fine.
@12:05 Tomlin, "I don't want hostages. I want volunteers." Man, that's why Tomlin is the Steelers' head coach. Dude is a leader of men without a doubt.
Arthur Smith had to clean house. Like any new HC, OC or GM, he has to go, or fall, with his own guy(s), not the underachieveing remnants of the previous regime.
Justin Fields makes sense in Pittsburg. Y'all forget about Kordell Stewart? Theses QB moves are genius. Pittsburgh line will keep them upright. Way better coaching than bears or Denver. These guys gonna shine. And I am not even a Steelers fan.
In the first 3 minutes of this clip, Rich essentially buried the entire NFL reporting industry. NONE of these "experts" know more than the rest of us. Glorified talking heads.
Legitimate question. If they pass on Fields' option, and somehow he winds up starting next year (either due to poor play or injury to Russ) and he winds up balling out, gets them to playoffs, etc. then they would obviously have to franchise tag him. But wouldn't that be more expensive then just simply picking up his option for ~ $20 million? Cause the way I look at it, it's a gamble to refuse his option and then he winds up being good. But 1 good year wouldn't be enough, so you'd want to bring him back.
Maybe they aren't, maybe they are... Steelers can do whatever they feel worth doing, namely, 5th yo, tag, or contract... or trade. Or cut. Anything, they hold all the cards.
Expecting Russ to play like prime Russ at this point in his career isn’t fair to him. He’s not that guy anymore, and he’ll never be that guy anymore. Steelers just need him to be decent.
Exactly. All I want is for Russ to be better than Kenny and for Justin to be better than Mason. Trubisky's _absence_ is an automatic improvement. They could go 10-7 again and I'd be happy just because those seven losses would mean we got beat and didn't beat ourselves.
And so accurate! I also think Steelers played their own Jedi trick on Russ: "Russ, you're a great QB, you're our starter, you won't have to compete, you'll get a big contract, come for 1mil and the rest will follow...".
Anyone who legitimately thought it was possible the Bears could get any 1st let alone a top 10 pick for Fields at any point were utterly delusional. Like how out of touch with reality did a person have to be to think that was remotely possible?
True! I’m a bears fan, and can easily agree. I did however, think a 4 or 5 was possible. I also don’t understand how keeping him along with CW was as bad of an idea as the media did. Unless they think CW is, or the choice at one will be soft. In which case why cut bait on a maybe who is far more valuable to your team than any other team? For another, maybe who is far more valuable to the league Everyone wants to compare CW to Mahomes, I haven’t heard anyone say “he would’ve been even better if he started immediately” Have him sit behind Justin for a year. He can see justin does things in the locker room. Show his team how good he is and how he can earn respect. Bears could have a competitive year, and then turn the keys over next year. I understand this sounds a bit too best possible case scenario. It also seems way more plausible than feeling good about this trade ever will.
Now that I've seen The Dynasty, I don't get why QBs like Russ or Flaco don't go to TB12 and Alex Guerrero on a regular basis for treatment and counsel.
Part of me thinks the Steelers could surprise a lot of people this year. Steelers style of play is honestly perfect for Russ. They got a good defense, they’re gonna run the ball a lot and if russ can just do what he did last year or better I believe they could go 11-6 potentially. What do y’all think?
It's all on Russ and / or JF, and nothing else. All good teams have great defense. All good teams run the ball well. Difference is, all good teams have VERY good to fabulous QBs.
*My boys are trying to become SERIOUS contenders AGAIN!!! The HATERS can say what they want, but in just a few months, the Steelers have ENDED the QB drama we were left with at the end of last year, picked up a veteran QB and his potential replacement moving forward!!! Fields could learn a lot from Wilson while he's there and also at a cheap price tag so that capital can go towards more possibly free agents!!! Plus, we've got the draft!!! As a Steelers fan, I'm already EXCITED about the upcoming season, and I haven't felt this way since the Killer B's!!! One thing's for sure this ISN'T the same OLE STAIL STICK IT OUT, Steelers, most of us TRUE FANS are used to PERIOD!!! GO STEELERS!!!*
Don't forget the real, honest to god Offensive Coorinator hire. The Steelers have changed everything that was holding them back. So can't wait for this season.
Last week it wasn't happening. This is all because of Pickett throwing a bitch fit about Russel. If Pickett doesn't get traded, the Steelers don't get Fields.
The upside of bringing Fields in is that he has the skill set that Russ had when he was younger but he has leadership skills Russ doesn't. There wasn't a Bears player that wanted to see him go. Everything he's done so far demonstrates that he is a solid individual. The only issue has been his apparent inability to read the defense and deliver the ball on time consistently leading to many of those sacks because he holds on to the ball too long.
Who knows there’s two sides to every story then there’s the truth but I wish the best for Kenny, Wilson, and fields Kenny’s got balls Wilson deserves something and fields has got potential this is the joy of football we will see!
@@MaynardGKrebs-tt1dd Look up sports mockery article “ NFL GM Crushed Justin Fields doubters in 1 quote. “ This is why your take is lazy and tired . Somebody else has to do all the work.

Honestly this was a horrible deal! They signed Russ to a 1 year deal, they only really get 1 year out of Fields if they don't pick up his $25M 5th year option. So at the end of the season Pittsburgh has no QB unless a team not known for developing QBs actually develops Fields into something workable. Philly got Pickett for 2 years before they have to figure out what to do with his 5th year option.
@@alcozar5905 They are saving money this season! They already said they want a deal with Russ after the season (if he works out). Well no team signs a $25M backup, so Fields will be gone.! Pittsburgh isn't known for developing young QBs, they got lucky like NE did with finding Ben Roethlisberger. So now Art Smith gets to try to develop Fields into a player that they can shop around at the end of the season?
Love what Omar has been doing so far. And with all of this sewn up. He has still a ton of picks in the draft for O-line guys. Which we all know they will do some pick trades to grab up for the ones they want. I think Omar has a few more tricks up his sleeve.
Didn’t think so when they drafted him, so I certainly didn’t think so now. Just another version of Jay Cutler in terms of frustration. All of the tools, very limited amount of the decision making and vision necessary to get the most out of them at this level…
@@STEEPPOW oh sure just draft a dude with no line no run game (except himself) and no receivers for his first 2 years and be amazed when it doesn't go well. I don't understand how 90% of NFL staff have a job. Not a brain cell to be shared
@@dannyquilter8366 Now they are going draft a new QB with a coach on the hot seat and if they don't make the playoffs they will fire the coach and all the coordinators which will put their QB back to square one. 🤦
@@dannyquilter8366I see so many people blaming the team instead of Fields. He had the same problems in college as he had in the NFL, he’s not a good passer and has barely improved since coming to the nfl. Switch Fields with any of the other starters in the nfc north and the bears go the playoffs easy
@@khal7702not much more. No way is poles turning down a day 2 pick because fields preferred the steelers. The other offers must've been In a similar ballpark to what they got (ie not much at all) so they went with fields preference
I love Rich Eisen and he probably got lead astray by people who were lead astray by the Steelers organization butni distinctly remember Rich Eisen saying that the Steelers were high on Kenny Pickett and that Russ wasnt guaranteed to be the starter. Like just a few days ago im pretty sure.... wild is right.
And don't forget when Eisen recently said just a few days ago: about how there's no way that Fields goes to Pittsburgh anymore (once Russell Wilson signed there)
Steelers still paid too much. He can't play QB, all he has to show for 3 years as a starting QB is excuses, it's always someone else's fault why he can't make passes over the middle, why he holds the ball too long, why he can't read defenses, why he can't go through read progression, why he can't win division games and on and on. Excuses and nothing but.
The Broncos are a B/S organization and George Paton is a B/S general manager. I'm to see Russ get an opportunity to finish his career with a better organization.
If Fields shows the potential that a lot of folks think he has, then the Steelers have a good (note: i said good. Not great, not elite) QB of the future. Fields is going to a really good situation. An organization known for its stability, team building, and leadership. This is Fields make it or break it situation. Is he Jim plunkett or Sam Darnold? We're gonna find out.
So the Bears could have kept Fields, drafted Harrison, had a ninth plus a ton of draft capital for letting the number one go. And they do this? Don't know how the TEAM is better.
Steelers have a new OC, A rental HOF QB, and a young 3rd year QB to take the reins from him when he's gone in one or two years. All that and we still filled a hole at CB and still have plenty of time to find a run stopping LB.. that's darn good if you ask me
I am glad that the Steelers traded one of the "Picke*" because I always get confused with Pickett and Pickens. So they still have Pickens but Pickett is gone, yeah?I have been pushing for the Vietnamese Football League (VFL) or Vietnamese Football Conference (VFC), but I think I will really get confused with the names if they use local VFL talent.
Russell Wilson had good stats last season compared to Patrick Mahomes. But Lamar Jackson and Pat Mahomes are elite and Justin Fields and Russell Wilson are trash.
To let everyone know how bad Pickett was, Russ threw for more TDs this past season than Pickett ever did! He was so bad, there were rumors he was about to be benched before he got hurt. He got butthurt that Russ was brought in so they traded him and a 4th for a 3rd and two 7th rounders. Even JF had better seasons than Pickett. If JF can stop turning it over, he could be a good QB that could win it all. I believe this is a high reward/low risk set of moves that can empower the Steelers but won't ruin them if these guys don't work out.
A guy who has a better chance of ripping off a fifty yarder than Russ? The Russ who last year had the TWO longest in the air passes in the NFL? A TD to Sutton was in the air 60.8 yards.
I'm a Bills fan but my uncle was die-hard Steelers (not so strange geographically, job opportunities and all) and I don't think he'd be happy. Even if they "succeed" it's like mercenary ball. I wouldn't want that. Why'd they give up on Pickens so fast? Then again, Fields still has potential. Weird way to get there but - have hope. Try 25 years without it, lol... no disrespect to Fitzpatrick, of course... or Tyrod fwiw
Typically I agree with Rich, but he completely missed the mark on this one. Russ had a pretty good year last year, and actually had Denver in playoff contention before Denver started with the BS. Also we literally got him for free, if he sucks we just play Justin, this is literally a low risk high reward situation. Where else have you heard of a team singing a 9x probowler and superbowl champ for 1.2m? Aaron Rodgers got signed for $50m and nobody batted an eye, he was also coming off of his worst season probably in a decade throwing 26 tds to 12 picks. You completely missed the mark on this one Rich.
I think what Rich is missing is that Russ can still ball. He has all the same physical tools he did in Seattle. Denver was just a bad fit schematically and they have a bottom 5 roster. Now both Fields and Russ have a top 5 roster and I hope Fields learns from Russ and they both have success.
Well, say what you want.The sun is shining in the Burgh...... Russell is a class act & deserves it.& Justin is also a class act & they will get along just fine
Didn’t not dawn on anyone, that someone inside the Steelers front office might just have had Gerry release that they’re not interested in Justin or Russell, just to keep other teams uninterested also cause I’m sure teams value the Steelers opinions of players and interests in the free agency market. Just sayin it’s not impossible!!!
I STILL expect Russ to reprise his role as Carlton Banks on a remake of Fresh Prince…and soon. Loved him in that role. It was so cool to see him playing himself. Let’s Ride!!!
Russ had one less TD than mahomes last year even though lilhitler benched him because lilhitler’s ego couldn’t let Russ lead the way. Figure it out Rich.
As a Bears fan im happy tonsee Justin go where he wanted. Ive always liked the Steelers and their organization, Tomlinson is a fantastic coach. Giving Wilson cart blance to do as he pleases is like giving a teenager a supercar for his first car. Stupid. I hope they give Justin a chance because he is a good QB that deserves a shot at becoming QB1. Wilson with his larger than life Ego may be detrimental as when he was in Denver. Good luck
i would like to have seen fields with the offensive talent the bears have now. maybe one of the conditions of the FA players who the bears signed was that fields would be traded(?).
The Rams went from last place one season to winning the Superbowl the next. Can't make moves any better than that. Plus the steelers have done what with Wilson? Way to call it a GOAT move before a single thing has been accomplished.
$4m and a 6th round pick for the combo of Russ and Fields combined is WILD.
The only thing is neither are good. The money definitely works!

I'd rather strike out swinging than never stepping up to the plate, and Omar and Co. are taking swings.
Watch what they do not what they say Go Steelers!!!!
I wouldn't be surprised to see Josh Dobbs get signed on the cheap, just to fill out that room for training camp.
Yep. And he could beat out Fields for the back up spot.
@@jimmymacnutrition6628😂
@@jimmymacnutrition6628 I wouldn't say that. Not unless Wilson and Fields went down.
Who knows now that Canada is gone dobbs could work out hell anyone could work without Canada
Remember when Dobbs won his first Vikings game and their fans were like IS HE THE FUTURE?? That was funny
NO fan that actually watches football thought Fields was going to be traded for the 8th pick.
That’s just the legit propaganda the media pushes. He’s not worth a pick higher than the 4th round,
People who play fantasy tend to have an extremely biased perception of Fields's skills, because he's capable of being such a beast in fantasy.
@@Fantasyremix It's fantasy, Madden and highlights.
He is the best backup QB in the league.
@@michaelh370I want what you’re smoking
@@ryanp6999 If Fields is better than you think, why didn't teams kick the door down to grab him? Why didn't they get a 2nd round pick for him?
Yes, yes, it's so very mysterious why the Steelers weren't all in on Pickett and didn't ignore Wilson and Fields out sheer gratitude and respect for Pickett's Hall of Fame trajectory at this point. The only mystery is why they didn't coax Tom Brady out of retirement to back up Pickett in the hopes that Pickett could show Tom a few tricks. I truly think you guys should spend more time investigating this further.
Steelers ARE NOT picking up Fields option. Be serious. 😂😂
It's not guaranteed, but it remains an option.
@@punch1420 They have seen him.
Steeler fans so happy they got for free, but Steelers announced Russ to start this year and intend to sign new contract.... how they supposed to evaluate Fields real worth before his 5th year option? smh lol
after seeing his market on the trade block, I don't think it'll cost much to extend/re-sign him. No need in exercising the 5th year option before seeing him play games for them.
yep said it up further, there not picking up his option. they'll redo it for ALOT cheaper.
That’s because Poles wanted to accommodate Fields, he said it during combine. I’m sure we could have gotten better from other teams that Fields didn’t want to go to. Not a great business decision but I respect a man of his word.
We'll never know if it's what happened, or if Poles simply couldn't get a NOTABLY better deal. But it's good optics for Poles, and a hell of a thorn out of Poles's side.
@@jeanfourcade
Reporting suggests he had other offers that Fields’s agent rejected.
There is 0 proof of this claim the Poles did right by Justin.
As a Bears fan I’m not excited about Caleb. He’s too emotional and immature. I want a QB like Drake Maye. Williams will be a bust!
Anyone who thought fields was even a 3rd round pick were delusional, to even suggest a first round pick is just madness.
Can you imagine having to pay him 25M 😂
How bout that QB competition between Russell Wilson and Kenny Pickett. 💀😂
He should’ve ate more crow on this.
They traded Pickett
... Arthur Smith figured it out.
Scott Adams figured it out?
The "Great Job" only applies if one of them gets significantly better than they have been in the past couple of years.
If Russ matches his last year, the Steelers could be the 1 seed
Yeah they just need to be better than Pickett lol
I live in the greater Pittsburgh area. Let me give you some advice Mr. Eisen. The Steelers don't talk to the local media because the local media is negative around here. That's why they're the last to know when they pull moves off like this and that's why they always call you up with negatively about Tomlin.
Keep your positive perspective about Tomlin and the Steelers. Do yourself a favor and don't listen to the local media. Your original take on Tomlin is correct. He dragged 3 below average quarterbacks to 10 wins and gets no credit for it.
Rich love your cometary and delivery I'm enjoying the humor in voice great work 😂 exciting time to be a Steelers fan and here we go
You people were absolutely insane actually believing Atlanta would flip the 8th pick for fields. Just wild.
Some of the ludicrous Justin fans finally wake up.
They cleaned up the QB room and brought out in two new ones. They need a backup QB so its Fields
Don't be shocked if and when Justin takes Russ' job, though. After all, the signing of Russ seems more like a bridge signing while the signing of Fields seems like something for the long term. If they can iron out whatever few flaws he has left, then the Steelers are going to be just fine.
Agreed, career backup
@@MFBloosh"few flaws he has left" 😂😂😂
@@MFBloosh He's a free agent after this year, unless they pick up the 5th year option.
Rich just accept the fact that you were wrong about Russel Wilson being in a quarter back competition with Kenny Pickett
😂 yeah Rich is an old man who will never admit he was wrong. He be quick to point out others being wrong though.
@12:05 Tomlin, "I don't want hostages. I want volunteers." Man, that's why Tomlin is the Steelers' head coach. Dude is a leader of men without a doubt.
Arthur Smith had to clean house. Like any new HC, OC or GM, he has to go, or fall, with his own guy(s), not the underachieveing remnants of the previous regime.
Same guy who failed as the Falcons head coach.
@@JohnnyCooper-hm2zlMany very good coordinators fail as head coach. He got the HC position because he was a very good OC.
A leader of men who hasn't won anything in 15 years.
@JohnnyCooper-hm2zl Yeah being a Head Coach is the exact same role as just being the offensive coordinator.
Sports pundits are like weather men over paid and wrong most of the time!!!!
Was waiting for rich reaction the moment i see it on the weekend
Same here! The Obi-Wan Kenobi impersonation was so spot-on!
Justin Fields makes sense in Pittsburg. Y'all forget about Kordell Stewart? Theses QB moves are genius. Pittsburgh line will keep them upright. Way better coaching than bears or Denver. These guys gonna shine. And I am not even a Steelers fan.
In the first 3 minutes of this clip, Rich essentially buried the entire NFL reporting industry. NONE of these "experts" know more than the rest of us. Glorified talking heads.
They are not picking up Fields’ 2025 option…
Legitimate question. If they pass on Fields' option, and somehow he winds up starting next year (either due to poor play or injury to Russ) and he winds up balling out, gets them to playoffs, etc. then they would obviously have to franchise tag him. But wouldn't that be more expensive then just simply picking up his option for ~ $20 million? Cause the way I look at it, it's a gamble to refuse his option and then he winds up being good. But 1 good year wouldn't be enough, so you'd want to bring him back.
Maybe they aren't, maybe they are... Steelers can do whatever they feel worth doing, namely, 5th yo, tag, or contract... or trade. Or cut. Anything, they hold all the cards.
@@Sunamii_studios Yeah, but the chances he does that are small. You could say this same thing about every player's 5th year option.
Rich keeps getting proven wrong and I love it. Just wait until they don’t pick up Fields 5th year and extend him to a cheap contract.
Agreed. But admit it, Rich is never better than right after having been proved wrong ! Peace, Tjk.
Expecting Russ to play like prime Russ at this point in his career isn’t fair to him. He’s not that guy anymore, and he’ll never be that guy anymore. Steelers just need him to be decent.
Exactly. All I want is for Russ to be better than Kenny and for Justin to be better than Mason. Trubisky's _absence_ is an automatic improvement. They could go 10-7 again and I'd be happy just because those seven losses would mean we got beat and didn't beat ourselves.
26/8
@@NeilTruickTrubisky sucked on the Bears i was glad to see him go and they have nerve to talk about Justin Fields.
Damn RE That Jedi Mind Trick Spiel WAS FIRE
And so accurate! I also think Steelers played their own Jedi trick on Russ: "Russ, you're a great QB, you're our starter, you won't have to compete, you'll get a big contract, come for 1mil and the rest will follow...".
Anyone who legitimately thought it was possible the Bears could get any 1st let alone a top 10 pick for Fields at any point were utterly delusional. Like how out of touch with reality did a person have to be to think that was remotely possible?
True! I’m a bears fan, and can easily agree. I did however, think a 4 or 5 was possible. I also don’t understand how keeping him along with CW was as bad of an idea as the media did. Unless they think CW is, or the choice at one will be soft. In which case why cut bait on a maybe who is far more valuable to your team than any other team? For another, maybe who is far more valuable to the league
Everyone wants to compare CW to Mahomes, I haven’t heard anyone say “he would’ve been even better if he started immediately” Have him sit behind Justin for a year. He can see justin does things in the locker room. Show his team how good he is and how he can earn respect. Bears could have a competitive year, and then turn the keys over next year.
I understand this sounds a bit too best possible case scenario. It also seems way more plausible than feeling good about this trade ever will.
@@grantandanimals Go look at comment sections about JF...there are so many cultists that think he's awesome, that it'd make the PR situation a PITA.
Now that I've seen The Dynasty, I don't get why QBs like Russ or Flaco don't go to TB12 and Alex Guerrero on a regular basis for treatment and counsel.
Part of me thinks the Steelers could surprise a lot of people this year. Steelers style of play is honestly perfect for Russ. They got a good defense, they’re gonna run the ball a lot and if russ can just do what he did last year or better I believe they could go 11-6 potentially. What do y’all think?
It's all on Russ and / or JF, and nothing else. All good teams have great defense. All good teams run the ball well. Difference is, all good teams have VERY good to fabulous QBs.
They gotta play the Ravens, the Browns and the Bengals@@jeanfourcade
*My boys are trying to become SERIOUS contenders AGAIN!!! The HATERS can say what they want, but in just a few months, the Steelers have ENDED the QB drama we were left with at the end of last year, picked up a veteran QB and his potential replacement moving forward!!! Fields could learn a lot from Wilson while he's there and also at a cheap price tag so that capital can go towards more possibly free agents!!! Plus, we've got the draft!!! As a Steelers fan, I'm already EXCITED about the upcoming season, and I haven't felt this way since the Killer B's!!! One thing's for sure this ISN'T the same OLE STAIL STICK IT OUT, Steelers, most of us TRUE FANS are used to PERIOD!!! GO STEELERS!!!*
Setting up for the "old" Russ only works if the old Russ shows up.
Long Gone not to Rich though and Deshawn Watson was a Great Pickup at QB?
That's a big part of his problem: Russ is Old. Just because Brady played great at 40, doesn't mean these other QBs can do it.
The Steelers just pulled off an Ocean’s Eleven-level heist. Super exciting to see.
Don't forget the real, honest to god Offensive Coorinator hire. The Steelers have changed everything that was holding them back. So can't wait for this season.
Steelers got 2 avg QBs
And last year they had 3 below avg qb's so might be better this year.
Steelers are embracing the recycling business !
@@jeanfourcade You just described the Mike Tomlin head coaching philosophy in six words!
@@ross6343 😉
Rich, Russ and Fields will make the Steeler fans happy! Rooneys approve this!
Eisen literally said last week that "Justin Fields trade, not happening" regarding the Steelers chances to land him 🤡
Last week it wasn't happening. This is all because of Pickett throwing a bitch fit about Russel. If Pickett doesn't get traded, the Steelers don't get Fields.
Let them intermittently put in Fields in games on 1st and 3rd downs, use him like Kordell Stewart.
But where's the BEST DAD EVER plaque gone?
All B.S! Suzie told him to remove like who to Vote for! Wait for election season the Elon Musk and Trump bashing will resurface!
The upside of bringing Fields in is that he has the skill set that Russ had when he was younger but he has leadership skills Russ doesn't. There wasn't a Bears player that wanted to see him go. Everything he's done so far demonstrates that he is a solid individual. The only issue has been his apparent inability to read the defense and deliver the ball on time consistently leading to many of those sacks because he holds on to the ball too long.
Y’all just hating on Russ come on go get a job
Who knows there’s two sides to every story then there’s the truth but I wish the best for Kenny, Wilson, and fields Kenny’s got balls Wilson deserves something and fields has got potential this is the joy of football we will see!
*LETS RIDE*
I am enjoying the incredulity over these deals from Rich. 😂
I feel sorry for Arthur Smith. Justin Fields' coaches usually get the blame for his inability to read defenses, see the field and make timely throws.
You are commenting with way too much logic and sense.

@@Saidakine Your grasp of logic and the English language is quite poor. Are you a college student?
Probably been since the 2980s last time the QB room of Champion QB room was below 5 mil!
Honestly this was a horrible deal! They signed Russ to a 1 year deal, they only really get 1 year out of Fields if they don't pick up his $25M 5th year option. So at the end of the season Pittsburgh has no QB unless a team not known for developing QBs actually develops Fields into something workable. Philly got Pickett for 2 years before they have to figure out what to do with his 5th year option.
Nope WRONG an average starting quarterback number is $40 million they are saving big money!
he could sign a bridge deal like Jordan Love
@@alcozar5905 They are saving money this season! They already said they want a deal with Russ after the season (if he works out). Well no team signs a $25M backup, so Fields will be gone.! Pittsburgh isn't known for developing young QBs, they got lucky like NE did with finding Ben Roethlisberger. So now Art Smith gets to try to develop Fields into a player that they can shop around at the end of the season?
Love what Omar has been doing so far. And with all of this sewn up. He has still a ton of picks in the draft for O-line guys. Which we all know they will do some pick trades to grab up for the ones they want. I think Omar has a few more tricks up his sleeve.

I love Rich Eisen and he probably got lead astray by people who were lead astray by the Steelers organization butni distinctly remember Rich Eisen saying that the Steelers were high on Kenny Pickett and that Russ wasnt guaranteed to be the starter. Like just a few days ago im pretty sure.... wild is right.
And don't forget when Eisen recently said just a few days ago:
about how there's no way that Fields goes to Pittsburgh anymore (once Russell Wilson signed there)
Steelers still paid too much. He can't play QB, all he has to show for 3 years as a starting QB is excuses, it's always someone else's fault why he can't make passes over the middle, why he holds the ball too long, why he can't read defenses, why he can't go through read progression, why he can't win division games and on and on. Excuses and nothing but.
175 yards per game and 4th quarter turnovers
There is a lot of sense in the above comments.
The Broncos are a B/S organization and George Paton is a B/S general manager. I'm to see Russ get an opportunity to finish his career with a better organization.
If Fields shows the potential that a lot of folks think he has, then the Steelers have a good (note: i said good. Not great, not elite) QB of the future.
Fields is going to a really good situation. An organization known for its stability, team building, and leadership.
This is Fields make it or break it situation. Is he Jim plunkett or Sam Darnold? We're gonna find out.
It’s apparent you don’t like Russ and want him either back up or out the league. Please stay objective.
Pressed this video a little too fast as a bears fan 😮
Nice reference to Obi One and the Jedi Mind Trick!!!..😂😂😂😅😅
So the Bears could have kept Fields, drafted Harrison, had a ninth plus a ton of draft capital for letting the number one go. And they do this? Don't know how the TEAM is better.
Wait. Bears STILL may trade down for a few more picks and draft whomever is left below Caleb. Who, by the way, is a gamble like anu other rookie.
Because Fields was a backup in the #1 spot
Tried finding the show live in the UK.. nothing ☹️ I have Roku too
u need a vpn
pittsburgh just got better
A better backup QB
Steelers have a new OC, A rental HOF QB, and a young 3rd year QB to take the reins from him when he's gone in one or two years. All that and we still filled a hole at CB and still have plenty of time to find a run stopping LB.. that's darn good if you ask me
Can't wait to be 7-10...:(
If Fields plays it will be 5-12.

@@seal4ever778 Not if they play Fields. Slight chance with Wilson.
@@jimmymacnutrition6628Exactly what did you see from last year to think Pickett is a better QB than JF?
Imagine starting 0-3 or 1-4 with Russ. Who wou gonna call? Jus...tin Fields (Ghosbusters theme).
I am glad that the Steelers traded one of the "Picke*" because I always get confused with Pickett and Pickens. So they still have Pickens but Pickett is gone, yeah?I have been pushing for the Vietnamese Football League (VFL) or Vietnamese Football Conference (VFC), but I think I will really get confused with the names if they use local VFL talent.
Fun fact: justin fields stats over his last 17 starts are virtually identical to lamar jackson….
Russell Wilson had good stats last season compared to Patrick Mahomes. But Lamar Jackson and Pat Mahomes are elite and Justin Fields and Russell Wilson are trash.

So as a Pats fan, we got the same value for Mac that they got for Fields. That's not so bad.
Sprinkling in a WR screen or a sweep or 2 for Fields is gonna be fun to watch.
To let everyone know how bad Pickett was, Russ threw for more TDs this past season than Pickett ever did! He was so bad, there were rumors he was about to be benched before he got hurt. He got butthurt that Russ was brought in so they traded him and a 4th for a 3rd and two 7th rounders. Even JF had better seasons than Pickett. If JF can stop turning it over, he could be a good QB that could win it all. I believe this is a high reward/low risk set of moves that can empower the Steelers but won't ruin them if these guys don't work out.
A guy who has a better chance of ripping off a fifty yarder than Russ? The Russ who last year had the TWO longest in the air passes in the NFL? A TD to Sutton was in the air 60.8 yards.

I'm a Bills fan but my uncle was die-hard Steelers (not so strange geographically, job opportunities and all) and I don't think he'd be happy. Even if they "succeed" it's like mercenary ball.

Try 25 years without it, lol... no disrespect to Fitzpatrick, of course... or Tyrod fwiw
A lot of people are going to verbally bully you for writing that, however, I agree %100. I feel the same as you.
What are you talking about? You have no idea what’s going to happen…if they go 12-5 and win a playoff game, you aren’t allowed on the bandwagon
Typically I agree with Rich, but he completely missed the mark on this one. Russ had a pretty good year last year, and actually had Denver in playoff contention before Denver started with the BS. Also we literally got him for free, if he sucks we just play Justin, this is literally a low risk high reward situation. Where else have you heard of a team singing a 9x probowler and superbowl champ for 1.2m? Aaron Rodgers got signed for $50m and nobody batted an eye, he was also coming off of his worst season probably in a decade throwing 26 tds to 12 picks. You completely missed the mark on this one Rich.
The Khan artist
I think what Rich is missing is that Russ can still ball. He has all the same physical tools he did in Seattle. Denver was just a bad fit schematically and they have a bottom 5 roster. Now both Fields and Russ have a top 5 roster and I hope Fields learns from Russ and they both have success.
My Bears got fleeced.
Addition by subtraction.
Well, say what you want.The sun is shining in the Burgh...... Russell is a class act & deserves it.& Justin is also a class act & they will get along just fine
Didn’t not dawn on anyone, that someone inside the Steelers front office might just have had Gerry release that they’re not interested in Justin or Russell, just to keep other teams uninterested also cause I’m sure teams value the Steelers opinions of players and interests in the free agency market. Just sayin it’s not impossible!!!
I STILL expect Russ to reprise his role as Carlton Banks on a remake of Fresh Prince…and soon. Loved him in that role. It was so cool to see him playing himself. Let’s Ride!!!
Idc what anyone says…I believe in Caleb Williams
Russ had one less TD than mahomes last year even though lilhitler benched him because lilhitler’s ego couldn’t let Russ lead the way. Figure it out Rich.
Just let the season play out then people can talk about next season and beyond. If somebody gets hurt the future can turn in a blink of an eye
If Russell Wilson plays like he did two years ago in Denver, he will not get an extension they will put fields in and extend fields
As a Bears fan im happy tonsee Justin go where he wanted. Ive always liked the Steelers and their organization, Tomlinson is a fantastic coach. Giving Wilson cart blance to do as he pleases is like giving a teenager a supercar for his first car. Stupid. I hope they give Justin a chance because he is a good QB that deserves a shot at becoming QB1. Wilson with his larger than life Ego may be detrimental as when he was in Denver.
Good luck
Think the media is focused too much on what a great deal the Steelers got. They still need a QB.
Cant wait to see Russell Wilson have a great season to shut Rich up
i would like to have seen fields with the offensive talent the bears have now. maybe one of the conditions of the FA players who the bears signed was that fields would be traded(?).
Rich is a true Rusell Wilson hater. It is now official.
Omar Khan changing the game and ReKHANSTRUCTING the standard! Time to take us into success in the new NFL. 🤟🤞☝️👊💪💯
No matter how this season turns out, Steelers with the GOAT of all off season moves with these two.
The Rams went from last place one season to winning the Superbowl the next. Can't make moves any better than that.
Plus the steelers have done what with Wilson? Way to call it a GOAT move before a single thing has been accomplished.
The Russell Wilson slander on this show is wild
Happy that JF is with a better organization.
