Not even dressed? are you forgetting the year that Ben was hurt? Mason has played in 17 games and started 10 of them. I mean jeez this has been beaten to death. The guy is a decent backup and that's what he is. The team has 4 years of watching him. The NFL has a seasons worth of film on him. If somebody wanted him for a starter he could have been had. If he was Starter material then a team even a dumb one wouldn't draft a QB in the 1st round and sign a free agent.
Yes, his second year when he was younger than Pickett and had better stats than Pickett. He had 8 games started in 2019 with 10 games played. We have already determined this. Also, there's a total of 384 pass attempts worth of film which is roughly half a season of film. And Rudolph hasn't ever been a free agent so we don't know what his free agent value will be. I don't think him giving the Steelers a hometown discount helped his cause for 2023 and he would have been better off going into last year as a free agent. And I think if the Steelers were a respectable organization they would have just been honest and gave him an outright release after drafting Pickett. I think they gave him a false sense of there being an open competition which there obviously wasn't. I think when he refuses to answer about the competition and corrects himself when he separates his love for his teammates for his love of the organization in speaks volumes about what we have become. I don't think we will pull any players to this organization with false pretenses anytime soon because we are not transparent anymore. This started with the handling of James Harrison and has now become overtly obvious.
He has been a member longer than a year so maybe you shouldn't point fingers you FNG.
With all that said you are still certain of Art and Mike's assessment of Rudolph? I am not saying Rudolph will become successful. I mean I would put the odds at 10%-15% chance he is a successful starting NFL QB. But I can't give KP much higher of a percentage of being successful either.
Your so pretty!
I agree Slash, If Mason was not smart enough to realize he had no shot when a QB was drafted in the 1st and a former 1st rounder signed in free agency then he is not qualified to lead anything. That's about as clear of writing on the wall as their can be. And besides hes being paid millions can you see the worlds smallest violin i am playing for him. Just like i posted before the guy has played 17 games and started 10 of them. He had his chance to shine and prove what he is worth. Not to mention if he was all that and a bag of chips pretty sure we would have gotten a good offer for him and we would take it. There are a lot of things wrong with this team and the front office and coaching but how Mason has been handled is not one of them.
Well, considering the two mentioned above has played like horse **** and a dumpster fire, maybe he saw this in camp and preseason and figured anyone that knew anything about football wouldn't put those two on the field.

Pickett has started 9 games with 10 being this Saturday. So unless he throws for 12 touchdowns Saturday you are about to call him a bust with no chance of NFL success. That is by your own logic of success.
Oh no, they've treated Mason so fairly. I keep reading all about it from the beat writers and how the team responds to questions about him.

LOL Blitz, i think the real problem in this thread is someone believes they found their Soulmate and they don't want to hear anything else about him.
I think the real question is how would Mason do if he had more Cowher players around?
Hey dipshlt, Mitch has a passer rating of 81.1 with the Steelers this season, which is higher than your hero's career mark of 80.9. So by your own convoluted logic, Rudolph has played like horseshlt and been a dumpster fire over his entire body of play.Well, considering the two mentioned above has played like horse **** and a dumpster fire, maybe he saw this in camp and preseason and figured anyone that knew anything about football wouldn't put those two on the field.

Wow who is reading all this garbage?
Your so pretty!
What I love about this is YOU’RE too stupid to know why this proves you are a nincompoop.
^^^^^^^This^^^^^^ The guy might have improved some, but at this point I think he knows he's not going to be Steve Young to Joe Montana on any team. Take the money, do your job by preparing, and be a good teammate. And he's doing just that, he knows the system just has some serious weaknesses in his game. I hope to see him at some point with this bunch before the season is over though, he might have improved some and putting that on tape might help him get on somewhere else if the Steelers choose to part ways. Seems like a good guy.
Don't confuse hatred with not thinking a player is very good, they aren't the same thing.

I don't think you would write a book about your opinion though. Then hang on every comment in a 30 page thread. An opinion is fine, the ignorance he attaches to being right is another story.
There it is... yet another you're so stupid comment. Black n Gold this is why the tool gets flack it isn't primarily opinion based. He is cooch smarter than everyone else.What I love about this is YOU’RE too stupid to know why this proves you are a nincompoop.
Good analogy. I lost a close friend over this type of thing. She was dating a guy w/ warning signs all over the place that something wasnt right, but she wouldnt listen. We would just go round and round finally she just pretty much shut me out. We still talked, but it wasnt the same. I think they ended up breaking up, but I never asked outright and there is no way she would ever admit i was close to being right.
