Will Howard

In single elimination games circumstances always play a big part in whether a team advances. In 2008 and 2010 PIT was crushed by NE in the regular season. And even in 2005 they lost to them. In all three SB seasons PIT did not have to play against Brady in the playoffs to make it to the SB. If you really want to dive into the details, if not for an arm tackle by Roethlisberger, the Steelers don't advance to the SB in 2005.
I don't know enough about GB's history to say what they faced in the post season during Rodgers' reign. But as Cowher used to say it is the fine line in the NFL.

 

And now back to everyone's fav Will Howard! The training camp darling.

Is he the next franchise? Or the next fizzle?

Is it all hype? Or is it real? Lets find out shall we.

 

All of those articles say that MM developed Brooks and Hasselback and push back against MM Claims of anything else.

Half of the links you are posting argue MM shouldn’t get credit for Rodgers.

Also ALL of the links you are posting are using the same source for the claim that MM is a QB guru - the PR packet that MM put together for the Steelers during the interview process.

There is ONE person in the NFL who thinks MM is a total QB whisperer and that’s MM. I guess Matt Hasselback is on board too.

Everyone else that’s looked into the details is suspicious of the claim. Including the authors of the articles you posted. Let alone the actual stats.

If MM gets Howard playing lights out or has Ty Simpson or Drew Allar as functioning NFL starters it will be an achievement worth his lofty self promotion.

Until that happens; I strongly advise everyone rooting for the Steelers to be skeptical.

 

I’m skeptical of Howard because of his draft position and hasn’t wow-ed so far.
could be wrong, but looks like just another mason Rudolph

 

Let’s list the successful OSU QBs. Stroud and Tomczak and a bunch of busts.

 

You got any evidence that supports MM developing anyone aside from Brooks and Rodgers?

You claim it exists but can’t seem to provide any.

This isn’t about feelings and vibes.

Data is how we test things. And the available data, of which there is a great deal, is 50/50 AT BEST.

Your own “supporting” articles contained multiple quotes debunking the claim.

Logic and reason beats out vibes every time.

 

And yet with saying all that one SB appearance with what many has said was one of the Greatest Qbs ever to play the game. Either McCarthy isn't all that, or Rodgers is over hyped. I mean if people can b!+ch , and complain about Tomlin only making the SB twice with Ben, and so called wasting His years, as I've heard it put many, many times here. Then what does that say about a HC that had a 4 time MVP Qb, and could only make it once??
This is all I'm getting at. Believe me, I want McCarthy to be awesome. As a Steeler fan I would be a fool not to.
