    Being a big OSU fan, I never thought he would be a good pro. And he hasn’t been so far

    Let’s hope he continues to suck when he gets his chance in pittspuke

      As much as I liked him at OSU, I wish him no success there.   Of course, who knows if he will stick.

        Haskins blows... But it also says... They're probably not sold on Rudolph...

          If Haskins doesn't put in the work?  Then he's Matt Leinhart

          If he does? He's a good starting QB.  

          So it's on him now being with a stable organization.

            Yup...

            He has a chance of being good, but I can't squint hard enough to see great.

              He's going to be 3rd on our depth chart, there are people losing their minds over it because they don't understand the why.  The why is it's risk free and if he's ANYTHING AT ALL he's a RFA after the one year and they can reposition themselves for a longer term deal.  He's been pretty bad at the NFL level, the one stat steeler depot posted was he's 10-48 with passes over 20 yards.  He needs to mature and a lot and if he does he has the talent but it's a big damn if.  I'm happy about it because it's good depth but no one with a brain is holding out hope he's the heir apparent.  I also thought Mason looked shockingly competent in the Browns game this year but it was also a shift in our offense.  We put more speed on the field and essentially ran a crash formation for most of that game.  As of now I just hope the Steelers bring in pep hamilton and give him the OC job and that they hire Fraley to be our line coach.  We may lose our db coach tho AND matt canada if he doesn't get our OC job. Hue Jackson is also being interviewed and I'm alright with him at OC, just not HC where he was clearly pretty damn bad.

                Who is losing their minds?  No one here. 

                The why is it's risk free and if he's ANYTHING AT ALL he's a RFA after the one year and they can reposition themselves for a longer term deal.

                Fair point.  No risk, no biscuit.

                  He's been pretty bad at the NFL level, the one stat steeler depot posted was he's 10-48 with passes over 20 yards.  He needs to mature and a lot and if he does he has the talent but it's a big damn if. 

                He does seemingly have talent, and he does need to mature.. 

                I'm happy about it because it's good depth but no one with a brain is holding out hope he's the heir apparent.  I also thought Mason looked shockingly competent in the Browns game this year but it was also a shift in our offense. 

                Competent?  Sure.  But that is about as far  as you need to go with your praise. 

                We put more speed on the field and essentially ran a crash formation for most of that game.

                Wait.....are you saying that your team has been holding back on putting in speed players at points in the year? 

                  As of now I just hope the Steelers bring in pep hamilton and give him the OC job and that they hire Fraley to be our line coach.  We may lose our db coach tho AND matt canada if he doesn't get our OC job.

                                It’s REALLY REALLY REALLY complicated but from what I can comprehend, they are screwed if he stays or if they cut him

                                He could always retire and give up that money. WINK WINK WINK

                                  Lazy take, be better. I've lived in ohio now for off an on 15 years including college, do you know how much I've heard this?

                                    He will be back and I highly doubt he's paid what he's owed.  If he really wants guys like juju back he's going to need to sign an extension on a qualifying level with voidable years and bring his hit down. Tomlin is also doing these hires in the right way, bringing in a line coach before he hires an OC to make sure they jive and the candidates are pretty good.  Fraley for the line and possibly pep hamilton at OC.  Ben has already said he wants to be back so the only way he doesn't return is if the Steelers don't want him.

                                      He's getting a little long in the tooth.?‍♂️ His understudy played better against us the week before. Brees is going out the right way, just as he's starting to be a tad off he goes into the broadcast business where I think we will do very well. He will be announcing after the Superbowl most likely.

                                        He has been accused of rape twice. And settled out of court with one of the victims. So, yes he’s a rapist. Why is that a lazy take?

                                          Yup...

                                          He has a chance of being good, but I can't squint hard enough to see great.

                                          He's going to be 3rd on our depth chart, there are people losing their minds over it because they don't understand the why.  The why is it's risk free and if he's ANYTHING AT ALL he's a RFA after the one year and they can reposition themselves for a longer term deal.  He's been pretty bad at the NFL level, the one stat steeler depot posted was he's 10-48 with passes over 20 yards.  He needs to mature and a lot and if he does he has the talent but it's a big damn if.  I'm happy about it because it's good depth but no one with a brain is holding out hope he's the heir apparent.  I also thought Mason looked shockingly competent in the Browns game this year but it was also a shift in our offense.  We put more speed on the field and essentially ran a crash formation for most of that game.  As of now I just hope the Steelers bring in pep hamilton and give him the OC job and that they hire Fraley to be our line coach.  We may lose our db coach tho AND matt canada if he doesn't get our OC job. Hue Jackson is also being interviewed and I'm alright with him at OC, just not HC where he was clearly pretty damn bad.

                                          Agree on your Haskins take. He has at minimum backup level skills.

                                          And, yes, Hue was a good OC, but... you can't trust the man. He's an insecure backbiter. Tomlin needs, and I suspect likes, staff who will disagree vehemently as long as their stance is an honest one and can then walk away in harmony.

                                          That's not Hue...

                                          Hue will tell you what he thinks you want to hear and then harbor grudge after grudge until he can't help but grumble about you.
