Re: Who wins the Backup QB job? Josh Dobbs vs Mason Rudolph
From what I’ve seen, I feel like Rusolph has done a Farley good job at extending plays, keeping his eyes downfield and completing the passes.

Yes. When I watch him throw the ball compared to Ben or Dobbs, he seems to not have the same arm strength as either of them.

But go back and watch this last game and watch the ball speed on passes. At this point, it's my one concern with Rudolph. I mean, he doesn't have a lot of escapability, either, but I'm not expecting another Ben R. or someone who can sprint out of the pocket. So I'm fine with that.
(Seems a quick search shows arm strength and velocity was a concern in the draft as well. Rudolph even admitted that he didn't have great strength or velocity, but said for him, he's focused more on accuracy).
Just speaking in general terms in an attempt to avoid some people getting their underwear in a bunch, which tends to happen on this site. This pass last year to JuJu didn't seem to lack velocity.

Sure he isn't Josh Allen or Lamar Jackson arm strength, but he doesn't look Kyle Lauleta west coast offense weak armed. Rudolph is the #2 and an NFL QB, while Dobbs is a better runner than passer, which was shown in the preseason. IMO.

Maybe it was just me but the team seemed like it came to life when Rudolph took the field. I really like him, he's a strong natural leader. Pretty nice pump-fakes too for having "small" hands :chuckle:

It was just that Steelers depot had retweet this tweet
Sorry for that, I'll be more cautious about that ... It could happen that I post tweet that I should not do, but I will try to make the least mistake possible

Agree. It’s does get out of hand. Especially ones that are just random and clumped in a thread that doesn’t really pertain to the thread other than a players name. It’s very annoying. Start a new thread with some context and a source link.
Anything that is a response is totally out of context because the original tweet isn’t posted and the idea of the message board is to keep people here. Posting a link without a story or just a tweet pulls people away from the board and they may not return immediately...you’re basically sending people out the door and they may or may not find their way back.

Re: Who wins the Backup QB job? Josh Dobbs vs Mason Rudolph
No worries..........that's what Twitter is......random crap. Not everything can be earth shattering but some are thought provoking.
Quitchernitpickin'.
Carry on with the annual bitching about about who made the roster and who did not. :coffee:

I think the Aditi Kinkhabwala tweet was relevant info.
Ben likes Dobbs in the QB room, so he gets to be one of the 52 kids. And he can pretend to be Lamar Jackson on scout team.

I responded to a Marcus Moser or whoever’s tweet.

Denver is actively seeking to trade or sign a backup QB...

No worries. I just would rather hear what you and other posters are thinking than random Twitter folks. I value the thoughts of most on here more than the NFL Twitter verse.

It's fine ... I'll be careful
I believe the tweet of Aditi in post 370 was a good information, but not the tweet in post 371!

Anybody claim Hodges yet? I am curious to see if other teams saw what impressed some Steeler fans.

Roethlisberger is the oldest in the locker room, so that's probably why Colbert said that...And it's really not a big deal ... I often hear a media or player say like this kid when that person is much older than you.
Even Ramon Foster had said this kid in reference to JuJu or Devin Bush (I think) and we see that many time in the league that an older player or person say to a player that he is a kid, so I never understood why Colbert's comments this winter are a big deal even at one week before the season!

Surely because Russell Wilson has always been healthy in his career! ... Never missed a start in the NFL! ... Pete Carroll is a little too confident about this! ... No seriously it's a little weird .... maybe it was just for manipulate their roster a bit and they will re sign Geno Smith tomorrow..We will see!

Another similar situation is the #3 QB that got released in Minnesota. Everyone up this corner of the world is over the moon for this guy. Oddly enough no actual NFL folks care -- who knew?!

Anyways, good to see the Steelers now have a passer at the #2 QB spot.
