From a 17-year-old kid dreaming about playing for the Pittsburgh Steelers, to being in Heinz Field for five college seasons, to now wearing the black and gold, quarterback Kenny Pickett is living the dream.
Kenny led all NFL rookies this preseason in QBR, completion percentage, and passing touchdowns. He's forcing people to start asking: what's it going to look like when this dude gets a shot in a real game? Kenny was the first guy we interviewed who we weren't close with. We came away impressed by the University of Pittsburgh's adopted yinzer.
In the news this week, we’re talking about NFL teams with two QB1s, why Kyler Murray is now calling plays, our reactions to the NFL Top 100 list, and what we think of the QB Betrayal Index. And we’re taking a look at Jake Paul’s new sports betting venture and our fighting styles in Throw It Deep or Check It Down.
If you're new here, welcome. We are talking with the best quarterbacks going into the most interesting matchups every week, and we are talking to them like we would in the quarterback room.
This is an authentic, high-level quarterback conversation.
This is The Room.
