George Pickens in Gaston Lagaffe mode

Did Steelers receiver George Pickens make a mistake?

During the traditional Friday press conference, Pittsburgh coach Mike Tomlin refused to formalize the identity of the starting quarterback this weekend against the Jets. A way to maintain uncertainty for the opponent, surely, despite numerous rumors about the return of Russell Wilson to the starting position.

Rumors were confirmed just minutes after the end of Tomlin's conference, when George Pickens was asked in the locker room about possible additional exercises carried out during the week.

“We've been practicing being on the same page, and we've been throwing more than usual because it'll be his first game. »

Stupid or stroke of genius? The answer last night.

In brief

Drake Maye has 0/20 in history-geography

Present in London for the Jaguars-Patriots match, the new Patriots quarterback Drake Maye attended a press conference this Friday. To the question “why should an English fan support the Patriots?” », the rookie dared a mischievous response.

“Well, look at the name of our team, New England. I think it's easy for an Englishman to support a team with such a name.”

Does the argument make sense? Not really, since the Patriots name, mascot (Pat Patriot) and entire identity of the franchise relates to the American Revolution. An American war of independence against… the British crown. Missed Drake!
