Antonio Brown traded to Oakland

and yet here you are, doubling down

you mean pittsburgh squandered their chance?

the steelers ran off two all pros this year and if you think that locker room situation has been resolved you're fooling yourself. roethlisberger will always, always throw his teammates under the bus. at worst this is a lateral move for brown because neither of those franchises have much of a chance going forward. this is antonio brown's job. he took a toxic work environment with $0 in guarantees going forward and turned it into a pay raise with $30 million in guarantees. he trashed his trade value to get what he wanted (and he completely fuged over the steelers in the process lol), he very likely ended the bills trade all on his own, and he's going to get paid $50 million to play in vegas in 2020. that's a huge win for all involved except the steelers who lost a hall of famer, kept $20 million in dead cap, and only gained a fugin 3rd and 5th round pick lol

in 3 seasons nobody will remember the state of the "Steelers locker room" as they change nothing and will continue to pile up playoff successes and they will remember how this was the moment Brown exited the prime of his career.

If Brown is content with that then the very reason no self respecting franchise made a run at him will be vindicated.

If you can’t realize Ben is the problem in Pitt at this point, you don’t want to. 

Imagine all of this going around a team with Cam as a QB. The transcript would be entirely different. 

Hmm I'm impressed you can say this with no bias. Even non-NFCS teams can't say this.

Yeah, man, I heard some of the stuff that he was saying on his radio show for the first time today, and I was like :omg:. Some things a QB just doesn't need to say publicly, whether it's true or not. Breaking down little plays, like he is just the epitome of perfection and it's the receivers' fault...there's no need for that. You can discuss things more democratically and constructively in the video room. It's a douche move from a teammate.

he had zero guaranteed dollars going forward and the steelers FO threw their support behind shitty leader and shitty person ben roethlisberger. when roethlisberger fugs up he attacks his teammates through the media. he's simply not good enough to do that and keep the respect of the locker room. brown is a better player and i can see why he would want out in that situation.

He had zero guaranteed because it was already paid to him up front as a signing bonus.

All reports mention he lived above the rules in Pittsburgh. He was liked but didnt feel the need to abide by what was expected of others . Its not mystery why they got tired of his antics.

The Raiders are just confusing to me.    They don't want to pay Mack, one of the best defensive players in the league.    They trade Cooper, who then helped save the Cowboys' season.      You hear rumors that Gruden isn't sold on Carr and probably doesn't see him as long term QB.    So the Cooper and Mack thing makes sense if they are rebuilding, kind of.     Now, they trade for a 31 year old WR, the best in the league yes, but are they rebuilding or what lol?    Like others stated, Gruden probably looking to replace Carr but who even knows at this point.      Anyway, I love seeing the Steelers getting fleeced.

I don’t understand, a rapist continually acts like an ass and calls out his own players, which isn’t acting like a leader. Meanwhile, AB wants away from the organization that puts Big Ben on a pedestal and at the same time he wants more money, because who doesn’t want to better their life? Yet ppl are hating on AB, for what?

The comments here would be different also

I mean it's not like the guy has worked his ass off to the point where he's arguably already a lock HoFer. Brown has been a great receiver and his teammates have liked him a whole helluva lot more than Roethlisberger who had been reported to have bad behavior , and yet Briwn has haters the Huddle-over. Hmmm, I wonder what that's about...

:thinking:
