    Cousins isn't bad, 70% completion percentage and 30 TD / 10 INT is not bad at all. Can't help the rest of his team is trash. However, I don't think he's worth that money he got, that big contract is part of the reason why they can't afford much else.

    True. All that and the 10th best passer rating in 2018. Doesn't look like a bad QB if he throws 3:1 TD to INT and is top 10 in passer rating. Steelers can be hopeful that whoever replaces Ben is that proficient of a QB.

    If Rudolph leads the Steelers to the playoffs this season then Ben is done in Pittsburgh. That is just the way it is and you don't bench your future QB or trade them. Ben will be traded or a post June cut. That is if he doesn't decide to hang it up after this season to begin with.

    When Dalvin Cook went down the Vikings and Cousins were easier to defend. Now that Cook is healthy this will be the year for Cousins to prove he's worth the money. With a stud RB like Cook his receivers (Thielen & Diggs two very good guys) should be open.

    Agree with this. Now if Ben were 10 years younger absolutely you trade Rudolph but there is no way you trade a 24 year old who just lead you to the playoffs to keep a 38 year old who is coming off of a major surgery.

    Whenever the moment is big and his team needs a play, Cousin wilts and throws a pick. He is kinda like an Alex Smith or Andy Dalton type. If what we are talking about is winning a SB, you simply are not going to do it with either actual Cousins or a Cousins clone.

    I'll take the guy with slightly less stats who can actually make plays in the biggest moments.
