Ben placed on IR

Tomlin just released a statement. Ben done for the season. MR is going to get his shot. Any ideas of what back ups are out there.

 

Just heard Ben will go on IR

Saw that too....

 

so with the news of Ben needing surgery on his elbow, is that the last time we see him under center?

 

needs surgery and is out for season...placed on IR

 

ESPN just reported Ben is having season ending elbow surgery. I think he hangs it up too.

The Mason Rudolph era has officially begun.

 

The season is over, honestly.

 

Next man named Mason up

 

Reminds me of when Bradshaw's arm quit.

 

Almost seems like destiny. I have seen this movie before.

 

So what's the 2020 QB draft class looking like?

 

I’m fine with that Ben WAS our hero , IMO he’d did the job he was hired to do ,2 for 3 in the SB 30 other teams would take that.

I’m all on the MaSon Rudolph train !

 

Which part do we get the new coach....lol

 

Kaepernick

 

Well, can't say I'm surprised, but he did bring excitement back to Pittsburgh football for quite awhile. Now we'll see what Mason can do.

 

Bens probably glad to get out of this s**t storm he started collect the 30 mill injury guarantee, i'm just sorry mason doesnt have any talent to work with on this offense....

 

I hope it doesn't end the same as that season.

 

Ummmmmm. No.

 

I have confidence in Mason ...but man I think I am stunned.

 

Landry Jones. Take it to the bank.

 

Brain Hoyer would be a good guy to have. He backed up Brady last few years in New England.

Very sad for Ben. I hope this isn't the way it ends for him. But, as Walter Payton said, Nothing lasts forever.

 

Well... no time like the present I suppose. It is unfortunate I am afraid. I am wondering if this is it for Ben?!


Nothing definitive from him. That is something of note for certain. We will have to wait and see.

 

Well, I am going to try and look on the bright side. There was a kid named Brady who replaced a guy named Bledsoe and no one thought he was ready or going to amount to much being a 6th round pick and all. Somehow that Brady kid managed to rewrite history books and win Superbowls. Okay I got it. He did have a better HC to work with.
