I didn't read this whole thread before I was spouting off, lol, yeah this is some crazy ****. JuJu straight ****** this guy's head up. I know these are assumptions but can you imagine the Pizza Hut commercials when the surrounding people are flocking to JuJu and wanting to engage him because he's such a cool, genuine guy & AB is just thinking he's Mr. Big ______ and nobody gives a ****?

Add in all the fans around Pittsburgh at the games, functions etc. and Mr. Fragile couldn't take it anymore. He lost his mind over JuJu becoming a beloved member of the team, way more so than him.

It wasn't even that JuJu was more beloved than AB. Everybody LOVED AB. I knew that he did a LOT of things to help the other receivers get open and have opportunities. But it wasn't like Brown was sacrificing his whole season to make JuJu look good. Brown STILL got 15 TDs (A career high, I believe) and over 1000 yards AND he got his all-important 100+ catches. AB WAS Loved. The Steelers Loved him when they gave him a huge contract and signing bonus. They loved him some more when they renegotiated his contract to reduce salary BUT converted that salary to ANOTHER signing bonus. He got love from the media when he was voted to the pro-bowl. He got love from the fans when he made all those plays.

The only people who didn't give him ALL the love he felt he needed was his teammates who voted JuJu team MVP. Maybe that was a shot across the bow, maybe that was a comment on his constantly being late to meetings. Maybe the team just honestly felt that the energy and enthusiasm JuJu brought to the team day in and day out were THAT valuable.

Regardless, it wasn't that AB wasn't loved. It wasn't that he was loved but JuJu was loved more. It was most likely because either directly or indirectly his teammates held him accountable for the flaws he DOES have and he simply could not cope.

He felt the Steelers were not giving him enough green love, aka, money.

The guy was upset about his contract, which magnified everything else, including his issues with Juju and Ben.

With the benefit of hindsight, I'm convinced that Brown approached the Steelers about a new contract after Odell Beckham and Jarvis Landry signed theirs, and was told no, which set the whole shitstorm in slow motion.
 
I can't believe anyone in Brown's inner circle doesn't tell him to stop acting like a complete dick. Not anyone in the Raiders' FO, Gruden, his family, etc? Not any of this that shines a good light on him going after a 2nd year player that showed respect to him until he was poked. He's in CA, going after a rising CA son. Doesn't make sense. He is really mentally unstable.

I'm sure there are people doing so, but Brown's ego will not permit him to listen.

Dude HAS to be the highest paid WR in the league, and HAS to be the undisputed big, swinging dick in the locker room, which wasn't happening in Pittsburgh with Roethlisberger around and another WR being named team MVP.
 
Welp....He's *really* a Raider now...
 
No wonder Ben wanted to retire a few years ago.

Guarantee all he is trying to do is get JuJu engaged in an internet war, make him say something stupid and further divide the team. I'd advise the players to just stay off social media. Go play golf or work out or have fun with the family. Screw the damn phones and internet
