As they used to say ..Cricketts....I’ll hang up and listen.
As they used to say ..Cricketts....
I have come to the conclusion most people on here have no clue of what they are talking about.
Only circling those who talked about the great Seattle defense and how the Steelers (with rudodolph) would be throttled by them, no sure if this includes you or not.Taking a victory lap on Mason Rudolph right now is hardly the intellectual take.
I’ll be man enough to admit that I thought the Seattle defense would present a bigger challenge. I was wrong. Mason had a solid game for sure. I was especially impressed with the 40 some handoffs that went for over 200 yards. Point is it all starts up front. Rudy has had the benefit of a dominant run game and really good protection. To his credit he’s taken advantage of that. Looks like he’s going to have another break next week as the Ravens likely will be resting many of their startersOnly circling those who talked about the great Seattle defense and how the Steelers (with rudodolph) would be throttled by them, no sure if this includes you or not.
Given the incredibly low bar set by Pickett and Trubisky, yes, Rudolph executing some basic passes and a few deep balls has been impressive.Did he impress anyone that much? Like, you'd be comfortable rolling with him as the starter in the future? I'll pass on that.
They all suck lmaoMason Rudolph throws a great deep ball and doesn’t make a ton of mistakes. I don’t see why he can’t be a Joe Flacco, Geno Smith, Andy Dalton type of QB.
Honestly, bad games for Mason aren’t much different than what you get from Pickett in a weekly basis. You’ll get between 10 and 17 points. He’ll throw 1 pick, but also get at least 1 TD and probably have over 200 yards passing. Maybe you miss out on the clutch late-game drive in a close game, that’s about it.Rudolph has played pretty well so far and they absolutely should be riding the hot hand, but it's almost as if everyone has forgotten that career backup Josh Dobbs was the talk of the NFL after week four of the season, which included them getting a big upset over Dallas, and by four weeks later they were so happy with him that they traded him to Minnesota.
And then in Minnesota he got thrust into starting and for the first three games there he played pretty well. And then he followed that up with a four interception game, followed by a 10-23 for 63 yards game in which they scored three points, and he got benched.
Absolutely ride the (relatively) hot hand, but if you guys expect that all the sudden this is the new normal for Mason Rudolph you are almost certainly going to end up disappointed.
All I will say is fans are not the ones who buried him in a cornfield. Mike Tomlin did.And this board is filled with them. Now what’s your excuse?
Just curious how you play this one. Are we still bring in 2019? Just trying to figure out how we move the goal posts after the latest outing where he threw for 275
I’ll hang up and listen.
Would you help someone take your job?It didn't help that Ben was so insecure and never took him under his wing, even though Ben talked about how Tomzak helped him when he was a rookie.
All the guys you mentioned ( including Ben ) are HOF QBs. If they felt threatened by a young guy coming in to take their job so helping them was a threat to that says more about their arrogance and lack of being a good teammate.Would you help someone take your job?
Montana wasn't doing it with Young, neither was Marino with Mitchell. Favre didn't do it with Rogers. Rogers didn't do it with Love. I'm not sure Brady was coveting Jimmy G either. All these guys when asked why they didn't embrace the backup, they all said the same thing - why should I? Maybe some guys do but it seems many do not.
Ok EinsteinLike the ones who cautioned against crowning Jake Browning, Josh Dobbs, and countless other bums who have won a few football games?
Taking a victory lap on Mason Rudolph right now is hardly the intellectual take.
Ok Einstein
Here is some hate. Why the personal attack.? Show me the quote where MR says "I am the next franchise qb if I just get the chance."One more thing. You can ask Mason what time it is and he will start thanking God first, and then ramble on for 3 minutes then tell you. Glory be to Mason. He is the next coming of Ben. Lets all anoint him.
Hate ? LolHere is some hate. Why the personal attack.? Show me the quote where MR says "I am the next franchise qb if I just get the chance."
It is a "What have you done for me lately" league, always has been, Rudolph has supplied a spark with a strong arm and decent accuracy, enough to get the ball to their top receiver down the field and score the last two weeks. Show me the stats that say otherwise the past two weeks. He is the best they have right now, your hate seems to blind you from that fact.
Wow. Just wow.One more thing. You can ask Mason what time it is and he will start thanking God first, and then ramble on for 3 minutes then tell you. Glory be to Mason. He is the next coming of Ben. Lets all anoint him.
Agreed! Let the athletes compete for their positions and those who perform, get them on the field. This brings out the competitor in everyone. With franchise qb's few and far between allowing a QB to mature should be the rule not the exception, seems the league has forgotten that. If you can't see that Rudolph has played the best back to back games by a steeler's qb in a long time, you are just not knowledgeable. Why should draft order matter? It did not it work with Devin Bush for example. Why is the QB position any different?We need more people like you
Agreed. It is not as cut and dried as the poster wants it to be. The offensive line played its best game in ages yesterday. They ran the ball with power which also helps the defense. The receivers didn't whine and mope. This is a better team than it was five weeks ago. There is no doubt about that. Mason played very well, and I am glad. There is a ton of work left to do and the Canada firing was the first of many steps.Dude played well..the funny thing is the supporting cast played well around him for a second game. Hats off to Mason Rudolph but he is kind of the beneficiary of the dam breaking before he jumped on the ship. So many things worked out in his favor..Pickens getting called out for effort, O Line getting blasted for awful play against Colts and Pats. If you want to tell me he is the only difference in this team the last couple of weeks I'll gladly listen, but we all know the entire team looked way better these last 2 weeks especially the O Line. But you go ahead and take your victory lap like you are Nostradamus or something 🤣. Rudolf has a strong arm, improved his pocket presence a ton, but also.....come on. He has not been asked to drop back 40 times, he has basically taken like 1 hit....Life has been pretty easy on ole Mason.....and he deserves it after the crap he has been put through by this franchise.
