The Steelers future starting QB is available

Webster,lol. I was thinking Gary Coleman. Then we can also sign Malik Willis so Murray can say in the QB meetings "Whut choo talkin' bout Willis?"

 

What is your preferred solution at QB for the 2026 season? Genuine question.

I’m not talking about the long term as there is no path to a long term QB this year that I can see.

 

Start Rudolph. When he craps the bed after three or four games let Howard take his lumps. Steelers draft their franchise QB in 2027 picking in the top 10.

(it is not a crime to have a losing season, and teams don't get extra credit for one)

 

I wouldn’t hate this but we know the team won’t do it. They will bring in a veteran QB to start.

Rooney has repeatedly said that he doesn’t believe in rebuilds and McCarthy isn’t going to want to go with Rudolph and Howard in his first season (or any season).

 

Rodgers comes back. Have Howard sit and learn from a 1st ballot HOFer. Odds are that Rodgers will miss a few games so Howard will get a chance to start.

Or have the Reindeer start and have Howard take over when it goes South because it will. Still draft a QB in the later rounds.

People on the outside as well as in the building are on board with Howard. Smokescreen? Maybe. We need to find out.

Waiting till next season as we have seen does not guarantee a solid crop of QB's in 2027.

 

Fair enough. And that is probably what will happen. As in Rodgers coming back

I can’t see them going into the season with Mason as the #1. That’s giving up on the season and neither Rooney nor McCarthy will do it

 

I agree but stranger things have happened.

They could possibly throw a few lower round picks for Mac Jones for a one year rental.

And thank goodness that reports indicate that Minnesota wants to scoop up the 5'8" blunder Murrey. And the short king wants to play for the Vikings.

 

They aren't getting Mac Jones for 'lower-round picks." He isn't expensive. The 49ers don't have to trade him, so they don't have to take a loweball offer.
