nothing wrong with that message. Given the circumstances. Only thing I didn’t like was his confession that he’s a lifelong eagles fan. They’ll like that in Philly.Quote:

is this Mason Rudolph’s cousin posting? You cannot be serious. Are you seriously seriously thinking we had a Super Bowl QB for 6 years and we failed to discover his full potential?

He had many starts as a Steeler and failed to distinguish himself as a franchise QB. Even Duck Hodges and Chase Daniels won games in this league. So winning a few games doesn’t mean he’s starter material. He may have been the best Steeler QB last year but that is like saying he is the tallest midget.Quote:

So his sophomore season when he was thrust into the starting lineup and the covid game where he didn’t get starter reps vs the Lions. You know that Lions game where he lead two game winning drives but DJ and Freiermuth fumbled them away.
Mason Rudolph showed in the last three games that he can play in this league. Is he going to be Ben Roethlisberger? No. But he can definitely have a productive and perhaps a Super Bowl ring NFL career.Quote:

Where is Duck Hodges now? He wasn’t just better he was Andre the Giant compared to them. Trubisky and Pickett couldn’t hold his jock strap.Quote:

All the Rudolph hate comes from unintelligent football fans that don’t understand the game. You clearly fit in that category.
Well....that was well and truly over the line.
Guess we know who the next contestant on biggest jackass is gonna be.

Well, she mentioned his 2019 or his “sophomore” season and THEN she mentioned the Lions game. I was responding to BOTH the 2019 season comment and the Lions game in 2021 comment. You know. Freiermuth’s rookie season.Quote:

You say "entitled". I say "tired of being screwed".Quote:

Pickett was a third round graded QB and everyone else saw that but us. If he would have been drafted later and sat as a backup a few years I think he’d had a better chance at starting and playing well. Maybe sitting a few years now will give him that opportunity to develop. But right now we have an established veteran that in his bad 2023 threw 26 touchdowns and 8 interceptions. That’s light years better than Pickett. And Fields who has thrown/ran for 26 and 20 touchdowns the last two seasons and is head and shoulders better. Not being able to bring Rudolph back hurts the QB room a bit but overall it’s a better place today than it was last season with Kenny and Mitch being QB1 and QB2. I feel we can now draft a guy with more potential than KP late and use that roster spot to develop a guy and not stash the best QB on the roster.
People are still on the Rudolph bandwagon. What you saw at the end of the season was the highest of all Rudolph high ends. [emoji23]. The guy is just a career 2 or 3 QB. Nothing wrong with that but he’s not a great NFL QB and not someone you’d prioritize to get a contract to at any point in the season…
If the stories about KP being an entitled brat are true, well, good riddance. I was certainly rooting for him to be successful but if he wants to be one of them snobby players, he can go and rot behind Hurts for a while.
Maybe Fields can do for this team what KP couldn't.
Good riddance to them both.Quote:

The more I read from reliable sources about Kenny's sour grapes attitude, the happier I am that his entitled butt is gone. His performance was one of a guy who should be fighting for playing time, not feeling like he deserved to be crowned. Things get harder from here on for him.
What social media post is this? I have seen nothing reported anywhere about Mason and the Steelers pulling a deal from him.Quote:
