Do you think mason should be our #1?

Yes it's relevant MASH

The Steelers proved there is other ways to sh!t thebed

 

Number 3 is my WFH setup. I use the tank as a desk for my laptop. Occasionally on conference calls, I must ask others if they are hearing any feedback to cover for any peculiar noises.

 

I concur. He is a dolt. Remind me what he said about our secondary in camp. I could use a laugh today. Our DB's are held together by duct tape.

Rodgers is all but checked out. He is going on a permanent vacation away from football.

Start Howard soon! We need to see what he has to offer before the draft.

 

all I could think of on Sunday night is that Aaron has to be wondering "what in the HELL was I thinking." (but HE was the major part of the problem.....)

He won't be back, he CAN'T be back....

 

I was wondering why Rodgers didn't retire in the offseason. Vikings would have been a better fit for A-ROD... and now they are stuck with a 2nd year QB who is not NFL caliber. He should have retired when Vikings turned him down. Steelers are a below average team in most categories on offense and defense.

 

If Rodgers plays poorly this week.Then should Mason start--Tomlin has his non-losing season on the line--Cant mess that up

 

Why start Mason and not Howard? Not that this will ever happen.

 

This. Though the chances we are seriously considering benching Rodgers are zero. We're still in the playoff hunt and we are still leading our division. Rodgers is T-5th in the league in TD passes right now. There is zero reason to bench him just because he played like total @$$ for a game in LA. The only way we bench him is if we are eliminated from the playoffs, and if that happens, we should start Howard the rest of the way. We know what Mason is and isn't and he isn't a starting caliber QB for a team that isn't drafting in the top 5. He's a tremendous back up in a pinch, but that is the extent of it. If Rodgers goes down with injury, then we need to start Mason until eliminated from the playoffs. Then Howard. It would be nice to know a little bit of what we have in Howard before we go into the draft thinking QB.

 

There's still no reason to build around Mason though... The only reason to start Mason for a year is to farm a high draft pick and use that on a QB (which I would've been fine doing this season if we really wanted to. Could've traded Watt and rolled with Mason, and been set up for a top 10 pick where we'd be a lot more guaranteed to be within range for a real QB in a weak class).

Rodgers played awful Sunday night, but he's the best thing we could've hoped for in the short term if we were truly trying to win games and make the playoffs. He's far better than Mason, Fields, or Wilson. You can make the case that we should've drafted Dart (who looks like the real deal), but that's about it.

 

he was probably regretting not signing with the Vikings. An overall better team that just lacks a Qb.

Mason is not the answer. Hes just a backup. Howard may have potential but hes way too raw. I would play Mason if AR’s play continues to slide, like next game. We cant go below 500. If were out of the playoff race, throw Howard in there…


The AR move is one of those moves where if it works everyone thinks your brilliant but if it doesn't - everyone involved in the decision will look really stupid.

 

No because Mason was not trained with this group to be the starter. This is not 2023 when we had DJ and GP who were on the team for awhile. Steelers should not give up on the season with the dude they went through camp with and now 9 games as the starter.
But yes, Mason should be the starter for 2026 and given the full offseason of training for that role, and the next 3 years.

 

You are just trolling now, right? You can't possibly believe this.

 

I would have been down with a Rodgers for Flores trade.

 

i wonder if Howard might get a look if Rodgers plays bad again...They did sign him to the team ..very interesting.

 

ARod is not getting benched.
We have the best QB play since Ben left and we're benching him for Rudolph?
Ridiculous

 

Not below average
That’s being generous
Bottom 5
On both sides of the ball
