Mason era should be over

Mason is playing in a different league than 2005, Sounds like another Mason excuse imo.

 

I'll put myself on the record that neither Rudolph nor Hodges will be in the NFL 3 years from now.

That said, I'd rather start Duck. At least he has the potential to make some fun Bubby Bristerish type plays in between his..well...Bubby Bristerish type disastrous plays.

 

LMAO. I believe Bubby's first start was against Cincy as a rookie. I think it was still Malone at Qb and he was injured. The Steelers, Bubby completed something like 33% of his passes, and the Cincy coach said, "I had to shake his hand that guy is going to be a star". Malone (?) said something like 'hell I complete way more than a third of my passes and get booed'. LMAO. Please take my memory with a grain of salt, I do not care to look this stuff up..those years are painful enough.

 

That's cool man glad you heard that I love that show and for some reason PK has a very warm spot for the Steelers. I did hear him talk about duck but I thought he said he would sit Mason in favor of him but he did say he would have put him in the clown game. I also head him say to that caller that he wouldn't put duck or lynch in as a starter.

PK did say he wasn't ready but who is? He also talked about how little help he has around him and especially talked about the difference in the team when Ben was in this position compared to Mason. Just because a guy isn't ready does not mean he can't get ready? Mason is getting zero help from the run game, the oline, his receivers and the play calling. I mentioned this earlier but Mason had a good pass deep and Holton dropped it(as well as others), that has been the story of the year. How is Mason suppose to get better and gain confidence when we drop passes, are getting pressured and fumble games away? One question for ya if we don't fumble those two games away and win them don't you think the confidence level would have been different for Mason? I do and don't get me wrong I am not taking the blame away from Mason but after thinking a lot about this I am ready to keep going with him until I see another performance like the last game. jmo

 

That's fine you keep believing that, I don't have to make excuses the proof is there. Both DJ and Juju fumbled games away and took wins from us how is that Mason's fault? This team is a shell of what it was last year when Ben was tossing 5k yds. Ben was struggling in a game and a half, our 1,2,3 rb's have been hurt and now our #1 wr is out.....oh and let's not forget our all pro center. But that's ok I will go find more excuses........smh

 

Me as well I won't use the "A" word , yeah there is something they see in him but it is awful funny how they cut him and yet in a league where QB is king nobody picked him up. Part of me wants to see Duck come in and if he does well we can put all the Mason talk to bed and if he don't then we can just remove Duck and insert Lynch to the replace Mason talk. I hope that don't happen as if we can't beat the Bungals we have some serious problems.........and this board will not be too fun the days to follow.

 

There's plenty more to be found but are still excuses. Mason needs to step-up or step-aside until he can be productive.

 

I do not disagree that he needs to step up but he is not alone and to put the blame just on him is a joke.......

 

Get a Kleenex and dry your eyes FFS. What's funny is how some people just can't move on and the rest of us are forced to scroll through 12 pages of incessant whining and condescending bullshyte.

 

We can only hope...

 

Find my quote that he is to blame, you will be wasting your time. He is a BIG factor in our offensive ineptitude.
Excuses can be made for the oline, the running game, wrs ability to contribute, coaching that can all point directly to Mason. Kid needs to get it together, SBs are not won with excuses.

 

So by poise you mean the way he is unable to lead WRs, checks down immediately, throws balls behind over and under receivers, spazzes out when pressured, cant scramble? Or maybe you view poise as the way he handled himself during the Myles Garrett spectacle? Oh yes, what a stellar example of what poise looks like... Either way, we clearly have different views of what poise is and isn't. But hey, I guess my dumb comment deserves an even dumber comment by you.

And another thing, if you read my comment and actually "heard" something, then you've got bigger problems and might want to seek professional help.

 

Mason flat out stinks, nathan peterman caliber QB. Honestly, Mason has to be in the bottom 3 at QB in the league. It's like he's allergic to making plays. He will struggle against cinci. I think the team felt is was best to run wild cat against them last time around. If your team is running the wildcat consistently in a game, that means you don't have a QB.

 

Which makes me wonder why so many people want to draft a QB to run the wildcat.

 

Dobbs could do it but we let him go. Just need the te's to make it work.

Edit: & some pulling linemen

 

i must have missed that but who wants a QB so we can run the wildcat, which almost never includes the QB?

 

I agreed with this, but not totally. I don't think he's Peterman bad.

 

Right here just quoted it

Why are you looking to bench Mason but nobody else??????

 

I am disagreeing with the part about dropping dimes.....yes he is a part of the problem. So is DJ so is Juju but you don't talk about benching them......just sayin

 

Sign everyone...........wait I mean.....bench everyone

 

I chose let Mason start in the board pole, I would like to see how he rebounds after a bad game.
That said I think his career as Ben's replacement is slim to none.
