Haskins vs. Rudolph

This is just a silly storyline. What exactly are people unfairly pinning on Rudolph? He did play poorly much of the time in 2019. He isn't the only reason that season was a failure, but he certainly didn't help matters.

He was not a factor in 2020.

 

Preach brother.

 

Rudolph played relatively well given the talent around him. JuJu was banged up, Conner & crew weren’t terribly productive. Not every QB does Mahomes #’s in year 2

 

joe gilliam. name me another qb that went 4-1-1 with a 43% completion ratio. the year prior he was 33%.

 

You don't have to buy it..... but statistically he is.... Ben, Bradshaw, Kordell

Yards...3rd
Record...3rd
Tds...3rd
Completions...3rd
Attempts...3rd

If you add his 35 rushing and 5 receiving TD... he gets to 104 and he is still 3rd...34tds behind Bradshaw

Let that sink in... the 3rd best QB ... is still 70 TDs away from being #2

Would need 61 more W's to tie #2

I know I'm an old guy in the room.. but I'm telling you it's hard to find the FRANCHISE.

in the history of the Steelers.. they found 2.... what other teams do you think found more? Pats 2...Packers 3...49ers 2.... Dolphins 2....Raiders.. maybe 1? Chiefs 2 if you count Mahomes....So what team am I missing??? What team just keeps drafting these great QBS?

I'm not talking QB1...don't get me wrong.. you can win a Super Bowl with a QB1... but I'm talking about THE FRANCHISE

HACK

 

Meh, accumulated stats. Give me a big game and I'm picking Terry, Ben, Neil, Maddox, Layne, even Tomczak over Kordell.

 

Don't sell Dobbs short. He's a tremendous slouch.

 

That's all Kordell ever did in the playoffs, though. All QBs have bad playoff games if they're in enough of them.

 

I totally agree with the ...
It's hard 2 find a Franchise QB.
I've been Preaching that awhile.

 

If it’s just ONE post, I’m totally on-board.

 

His best post season game was AFC Championship vs. Broncos after '05 season. Ben never could quite get back to that level in the post season.

 

Kordell was the good sex you couldnt leave. Sure there was missteps but my god when it was on....

I'll take the peaks and valleys over the missionary all day.

Gimme Kordell right at 3

 

I would say Kordell was no climax.

 

Later in his career Ben became Brett Favre 2.0 in the playoffs, a turnover machine .

 

Is it too early to ask what the Steelers are going to do with all their free Cap space next year?

 

I know your playing, so I won't get into the crippling a team in a rebuild with a overpriced and aging Qb.

 

Best post of the year so far lol

 

umm, sorry but I'm not interested in that kind of sex...

 

I'm a Buckeye, and have watched every play of their every game for decades now, as well as daily kept on top of much of the "goings-on" in that program during that same time. I say that to make these two points.

1. During his time at OSU, Dwayne was lauded as not only a true team leader, but actually a top worker, consistently, on a regular basis. And with the absolute STUDS in that program each and every year doing the same thing, he wouldn't have been called those things if it weren't real. No, I wasn't there, but those who were don't just make these things up for anyone, no matter who it is.
2. Not only have most of those in Washington said much the opposite of him during his two years there, but none other than Chase Young, his teammate there and at OSU, has mentioned the same criticisms about him during their one year together in Washington.

So something happened to Dwayne when he left OSU and went to Washington. I have no idea what it was, but something did. You don't have all of those people in both of those places say almost the exact opposite about you - consistently - unless both are true.

The good news is that he does have a past that shows he has it in him to be great. The bad news is that he now has things (habits, attitudes, whatever) that he's going to have to spend considerable amounts of his resources on to get rid of, and that's before he can start making real progress and improvement on his quarterback play.

He hasn't made it easy on himself.

 

$14,416,612 Happened to him

 

I was living in Denver at that time. Ecstatic doesn't even come close to how I was feeling after that one. Going into work that Monday morning.....priceless

 

Sadly 2 some that's all its about. Now so I don't sound Hypocritical....at that age If I got that much money I might have been the same. I'd like 2 say I wouldn't, but know way 2 say for sure.
