George Pickens' dad, Carl, slammed Pittsburgh Steelers coach Mike Tomlin for the team's inability to find a long-term solution at quarterback. In a tweet on Saturday, NFL media personality Dov Kleiman shared Carl's tweet from 10 days ago, where the former wideout praised George's "sanity" for already playing with five different quarterbacks since entering the league.

A few others also attempted to decode Pickens Sr.'s tweet by suggesting that the team needs to find a quarterback to be relied upon for the future.

"Woah holdup. I dont believe GP father is pointing out any one QB of the six. What he is pointing out that it’s been SIX different QBs in 3 yrs. GP works continuously year after year putting in extra time to get the flow of passing down &works w all SIX QB’s. Count ‘em SIX," a fan said.

"I'm with pops, but it's coaching and Scheme that's a huge problem." another fan said.
"Not necessarily a dig at the quality of QBs, but maybe the quantity of QBs," a fan said.

The Steelers drafted Pickens in the second round in 2022. The wideout has recorded 2,841 yards and 12 touchdowns on 174 receptions across three seasons with the team so far.

While Pickins has shown glimpses of brilliance during his time in the big league, he needs a stable quarterback who can help with his productivity.
