Do you think mason should be our #1?

You keep saying this

And I keep saying they and I did find out all we needed to find out

 

Nothing runs like a Deere and Fields is the better runner. Should have not let him get away.
Rudolph is a different Deere and possibly could run the offense too.

 

They?
Bags and crew?
No way guey

 

And you think Fields would've done any better with the tough schedule at the end?

 

That was also when Pickens was acting out because he wasn't heavily involved in the offense.

 

Ok

I

 

Fans crack me up with this Milton hype , he has a cannon for an arm and accuracy issues too. I'm not worried about Mason numbers with the Titans he will be playing with more talent on the Steelers.

 

Fields wasn't really benched because he was only starting because of injury, Fields also got injured during that stretch at the end and missed 2-3 games.

 

The other guy faced the far more difficult part of the schedule, played many of those games without the team's only viable starting receiver, and was out there as the defense fell apart, but sure, ignore the context to sell your false narrative.

 

Tomlin didn't trust him to take shots down the field, which took away a big part of Pickens' game.

 

me too

 

Yes, possibly.

 

3 games is a few not many talk about false narrative
oh you forgot the days were colder and shorter, and blah blah

4-2
2 west coast victories
4 away games
both losses because of the defense.

 

Can't disagree with this. Fields' success with the Steelers was 'manufactured' by keeping him from high risk throws to the middle of the field, throwing to first reads or taking off on a scramble. It's not an offense that will compete with the better teams. He still struggled to read defenses. Sure, Fields improved on a few things, but it's a question of how far and how long it would take to get him to an above average QB. Then, it's a rebuild on defense.
If the Steelers really felt that positive on Fields, they would have offered a longer contract for more money than the NYJ. As it is, he got a two year deal which is really just a prove it contract.

 

Not really

$15M a year would place him about 20th on the salary list pretty much as expected

With 32 teams that is well below average as was his play and ability

One draft pick away from being a number 2

 

They needed a backup and made an appropriate offer

In hindsight it was a mistake switching to Wilson but at the time it was the right decision

As hard as it is to fathom we just might have to live the rest of our lives realizing we disagree on Fields

 

I dont see anything wrong with MR being the starter. He can do well with a good line (hopefully we have one) and a good receiver corps (we do have a great one). Were not a contender and not expected to compete for the division title. I really think he’ll at least be as productive as the last years starters

 

It's hilarious how much some of you guys want to argue about which sh!tty QB is better than that sh!tty QB. Any QB not named Ben that this FO has acquired over the past 20 years sucks. Period. And even IF the FO could actually properly evaluate and sign legit QB talent, the sorry ass coaching staff would just f#$% it up anyway. You guys are arguing about stuff that doesn't matter and wouldn't mean the difference of this team being a legit contender vs a mediocre sh!tshow.

 

As long as coach T is there and meddling in the offense, don’t much matter who is qb
