definitely looking like from the outside. That the locker room is a cesspool.

Maybe...just maybe Antonio Brown is the good guy in all of this?

Can't really cover the stench of one of your highest paid stars going AWOL and not returning calls before a crucial game with the playoffs hanging in the balance - no matter how you choose to spin it.

Burnett wanting out has less to do with the culture problem and more to do with the fact that the position he wanted to play here he got beat out by a rookie.

Bye Felecia.

Burnett claimed he was playing out of position. I can't say, since I don't even remember him on the Steelers (and I did see a few Pitt games this year)

Hilarious that nobody says anything about Terrell Edmunds when they talk about why Burnett wants out.

Not saying the locker room isn’t a cesspool, but the media is wrongfully lumping this story into the drama.

Know the facts

He was playing the exact same positions that he played in GB. Not sure why he thinks that.

He was signed to fill the SS void after they cut ties with Mike Mitchell & transitioned Sean Davis to FS. But Burnett couldn’t stay healthy and the rookie they drafted overtook him. So that left him playing more of the dime backer he played in GB.

It's the Steelers. They probably expected him to actually play defense.

Guess the auto thing to do is to pile on when the shit runs easily?

Yep. Easy story to spin given the current state of things with the Steelers drama.

Yeah... even the story said it was about playing time/position.

cant disagree, but you certainly are uneducated on the issues
