there’s another story in Pittsburgh in Pennsylvania rather uh that is near and dear to the heart of lvar Arrington and that’s the quarterback battle for the Steelers because you got Russell Wilson and you got Justin fields and Russell Wilson we assume is going to be the starter but according to Justin Fields his mindset is not looking at it like well I’m just going to be the backup the entire year let’s take a listen uh I’m I’m definitely you know competing I think you know bruss knows that we’re competing against each other every day him being out there for me that you know helps me getting better us pushing each other so I mean I definitely don’t have the mindset of you know me just you know sitting all year so um you know I’m coming in every day giving it all I got and you know pushing him to be his best and he’s you know pushing me to be my best each and every day anybody get the feeling Justin Fields is going to take the field this year because I I get that feeling just give it some time I think he’s gonna be the starter at some point this year okay just give it some time what do you how do you think like barring injury like do you think this is something to where they go we need a spark we need somebody who’s going to you know add some athleticism to the offense or something like that I just feel like he’s going to get his shot this year and Mike Tomlin hasn’t shut the door on it like he said like yeah these guys are going to compete like I get this vibe that he’s going to be the guy at some point it’s gonna be Justin field I just keep going back to the fact that like Fields has never passed for over 3,000 yards in his career I mean like in Russell Wilson’s career he’s never passed for less than 3,000 yards not in any season at any point he’s only thrown less than 20 touchdown passes once in his career and that was his first year in Denver every other year has been 20 or more Fields has never thrown 20 touchdown passes in his season I I just I feel like initially if Wilson goes in and they play and they win and he’s playing well I just I don’t see how Justin Fields sees the field unless a package for him to utilize his athleticism but I I just I don’t know I have a hard time with Arthur Smith calling plays now the Personnel that they have I don’t know I guess I got to see it to believe it no I agree with you I I agree with that sentiment I but I also feel as though bringing in a Justin Fields the same exact time that you brought in Russell Wilson I I I feel like shortened Russell Wilson’s his his Runway he doesn’t have any real space or any luxury connected to a bumpy start a not so smooth start I mean if if it were set up differently I feel as though if he comes up short you you instead of saying bring in Justin Fields you say you know what like we expected him to have some Growing Pains we expected him to have to have some adjustments you know but if he loses games you know while he’s trying to adapt and adjust to what what the offense is going to look like I don’t know that he gets the fair opportunity and the amount of time to actually find that that Rhythm or find that success I think there’s going to be too much pressure put on the possibilities of what Justin Fields could be thus this conversation that we’re having right now as an example I mean if they were ready to turn away from Kenny picket a guy that they drafted and seemingly were invested in I think they could turn away from Russell Wilson at any point and just be like we’re not seeing it we we’ll go to obviously they haven’t invested anything in Russ I I think that I think think they invested a first round pick and there was more significant monies Denver’s paying the bill essentially for Russell Wilson to be there right now and can I ask you this as well too because that story that came out I think it was Tyler Dunn who had the story about Justin Fields daddy Justin Fields not getting along with Nick FES and not getting along with Andy Dalton in the quarterback room and all that stuff that came you you guys would know better than me you’ve been around Justin fields did you ever get the impression that he was that type of guy to where I’ve never been around Justin field okay I I have I’ve never gotten the impression he’d be like that I don’t know why that came out I’m not sure if it was a uh a reporter maybe a coach or someone with a bone to pick or someone was sensationalized from every time I’d been around a young man he had never conducted himself in any manner that would make you think that he’s not an upstanding good dude and and look you know I could reach out to some of those guys and ask them and and look they might have their moments people tend to forget when you were in a quarterback room man I’m telling you you are like family you’re like brothers you’re in there so much together I mean you’re getting into the office at least you should be somewhere between 5:00 and 6:00 a.m. every day every day especially once the fall starts offseason probably about the same but getting treatment getting workouts getting a little head start on the film and you’re with each other in meetings before like when special teams meeting you’re meeting like you’re always there together offense meetings team Mee like everything doing extra work off the field like you spend so much time together you’re gonna fight you’re going to have disagreements people aren’t going to see the world the same way that happens I just have a hard time believing that it was that bad of a of an environment I mean I I could be wrong again I’ve been in quarterback rooms before where you had people were who are Polar Opposites and you you know it’s funny like comedy tends to be the one thing that always brings and unites people which I mean I’m not trying to get off on a tangent but it feels like right now in our society there’s a little bit of that going on right but I i’ I’ve never I was never anytime I was around him I never could have seen him you know he’s I guess I guess I should say he always was the type of guy that you’d want as a leader the one saying the right things doing the right thing so that was very surprising to read yeah it’s just it was kind of a weird story that came out and like when you factor in and think about the fact that all of his teammates like majority of them wanted him back last year like they were all pounding the table like we want him back he’s our guy we love Justin field and then this story comes out to where you know Nick Foles Andy Dalton who I don’t know any enemies they have other than maybe Carson Wentz for Nick FES like I like all of a sudden he’s like a bad person to have in the quarterback room it was just it’s odd and nobody’s really come out and said afterwards I don’t know if he was asked about it yesterday you know he was asked about his departure from Chicago was classy about it said I wasn’t surprised by it I understood you know they talked about Pittsburgh being one of the places you wanted to go to even after they TR you know acquired Russell Wilson that that was still a spot that he wanted to go to it’s just weird that that would come out because you never heard anything about the guy well what what are we hearing about him now out of Pittsburgh nothing exactly yeah so there you go so you don’t so you don’t buy it I don’t I I don’t buy it I I just think that when things like this happen there’s there’s always there’s always going to be that one negative report it’s it’s like a part of sports for some strange reason it just seems like when something unceremoniously happens there’s that one source that says from the inside why it was all effed up it just always has been a part of media I I don’t know I don’t get it I don’t understand it but I guess in in our our society and our culture I mean we turned it into a social platform called Twitter now it’s X I mean everything is so negative people thrive people feed people people enjoy negativity it’s like oh Justin Fields was this amazing football star in high school did a reality TV show goes to college and up transferring has an amazing career finished out at Ohio State high draft pick goes to Chicago oh wait it didn’t work it’s it’s it’s horrible how it went well here’s why it didn’t go well somebody’s going to give you a reason as to why it didn’t go well and and that’s that’s how media works so I’m not surprised by it but would I judge Justin Fields off of that would I have a notion towards him I’ve never met him don’t know who he is uh outside of what I’ve seen of him as a football player but I would not I would not presume that that’s who he is based off of a report support unless there was real is there a quote from fos is there is there a quote from these guys exactly if there’s a quote from the players saying it then there’s validity in in my estimation if it’s not coming if that didn’t come as a direct quote from one of those guys that were in that that room then to me that’s it’s it’s just you know it’s fake news to me
