Ok. What changed

The offense played much better second half. Does the play calling change with a new QB? Because we need to keep those plays at the top of the list. I didn't think Rudolph would do squat and I was dead wrong.

 

IHO, I thought Mason was much more accurate than Rodgers plus he got the ball down the field faster.

 

Mason believed in himself today.

 

Obviously, everything Tomlin said at halftime resonated

 

For the most part, Rudolph took whatever the opposing D gave him rather than trying to create something.

 

NFL is bi-polar. Chargers got destroyed by the Jags a week after they looked like a juggernaut.

 

Tomlin called the defensive plays

 

Mason saw the field better

 

Mason
- killed time off the clock, with still getting points
- was able to target DK more
-gave other players heart

Mason moves better then Rodgers, and with a week.of practice he will look for DK more. I don't want to see a 41 year old qb behind a shaky ol anymore.

 

Nothing really changed. We threw a ton of balls behind the LOS and a couple guys made some plays with it. Defense scored 2 TD’s

 

Maybe I still have a an emotional rush from just watching this win but being well aware that they play down to inferior competition, I haven't felt this much confidence that the team can potentially put a good game on both sides of the ball to where they can potentially beat an elite top 5 team this year.
Of course injuries' being the wild card x factor,

 

I think Rodgers is close to retirement. Mason did a lot of check downs but at least he made up his mind quickly. Rodgers looks old slow and lost.

 

Yea, he has over $300 million in the bank. He doesn't want to get hit anymore. Hope he leaves gracefully and go on IR.

 

Mason just willing to take the underneath stuff

 

I like Rodgers, but I would have been content with Rudolph and Howard in 2025. I don't think our record would be much different had we rolled with Rudolph this year.

 

Yeah that probably is best for all involved. Then we can go with Mason and Howard backing up. If we get eliminated or Mason gets hurt we get a look at Howard.

 

Even if he didn’t get hurt I think Mason would have been the #2 regardless. The bottom line is the Rodgers experience is over IMO so Howard should get a shot soon.

 

The Steelers score a lot more points then the Bungles and won the game....duh

 

Rudolph got rid of the ball a bit faster. That gives players a chance of getting some yac. I’m sure the OC had a quick chat with Mason along the lines of what do you love/hate. Outside of that not a whole lot. You have to remember players and coaches have 11 minutes to get off the field and back at half time. Mason is a pro and he’s ready when his name is called.

 

Against the worst defense in the league, you cannot draw any conclusions about our offense.

We made some key 1st downs on 3rd down with runs after a catch that maybe should not have been.

I think overall we played poorly on offense. A bit better with Rudolph.

The refs definitely helped more than hurt.

Found out Rodgers can`t play when bruised up a bit.

Overall play not great, but good enough to beat an NFL bottom feeder.

 

Oh come on dude

WORLD BEATERS !!!!!!!!!!!

 

You can conclude both QBs played against the worst defense on the same day.
