    Agree 100%. We already know what we have with Rudolph. Letting Howard start and see what we potentially have going into next years draft could go a long way even if it is only one game starting.

    Tua is small and struggles in cold weather no thanks.

    He is another example of a high picked Qb failure, and I don't want to hear about coaching failures. They have done everything they could to make it work.

    I'm not a fan of small QBs like Tua and Bryce Young.

    There is truth to that.
    I usually think of 1 or 2 can't miss types are in a draft, guys that just have all the tools and yes, sometimes there's only 1 or sometimes there's a few ie Rothlisberger draft.
    It's really more of the scouting being good enough to do quality scouting and finding those guys.
    You don't want a Ryan Leaf, a guy that I pulling against the pack as I was pretty sure he was a bust. Lot of physical traits, no brain.
    And of course, the QB has to fit your offense and blend with the coaching.

    With Pittsburgh, there has to be a focus on QB, they must find some sort of solution.

    I figure Tomlin will return, in 26.
    Tomlin prefers the Vet types. Mac Jones would be #1 on the list but he's also under contract and I don't think a trade will happen because, well, you know, Omar.
    So, Kyler Murray will be cut - Hard pass for me.
    Tua might get cut, it is an expensive proposition but maybe...
    There's probably another 1 or 2 in trouble.

    We have Skylar and Howard and, Mason.....

    In the draft, there's 5 QB's I have that are worth the gamble and a couple wild cards.

    At this point, those are the options as I see it... maybe I have a few modifications as circumstances change... but generically speaking now.
    I don't know what they'll do.

    Rudolph is not a young worthy quarterback

    He’s had almost 8 seasons of opportunity and he has shown he is not starter material

    You have to be joking about Pickett

    They will not and should not play Howard in a game that counts but in your scenario it seems to make sense

    For the Steelers to give up that fast on a 1st rd pick and QB no less you know he was bust. I would like to have video of that come to Jesus moment when the coaching staff realized they made a mistake.

    Liked everything but the maybe for Tua
    He can’t win in the cold, so let’s bring him here
    No thanks
    I am honestly worried Magic Mike brings in Flacco
