Mitch wins the starting job, question is will he be able to keep it based on his play?
Kenny Pickett is who I though he was .. Eagles didn't value him either , now he is a Stain at the Mistake by the Lake 3 teams in 4 years more of a shooting star than a superstar

You can win with him but this is likely you will not win because of him!Originally Posted by Dwinsgames

Welcome back, BEAST!!!
I love stats. I love analytics. I love metrics of all types and kinds.
But, unfortunately, I have seen Mitchell Trubisky play NFL football. And other than one half against Green Bay where he looked like a super-star, Trubisky looked confused, unable to read defenses, flummoxed by post-snap movement, and prone to stretches of inability to execute fundamentals.
I expect turnovers and punts. An exciting number of them!
I agree for the punt...But he is not a turnover machine(37 interceptions in 50 starts)...He is just very innaccurate for both team!
Trubisky on the move and throwing to the middle of the field, which is what Canada claims he wants to do, is going to be a turnover factory!
Trubisky never met a safety or a linebacker that he actually anticipates where they are going to be.
If you are right,I don't think that Tomlin will be much patient with this and he will be benched!
I actually look for Pickett to win the job. Maybe not necessarily "win," but be handed the job. It doesn’t make much sense to me to not start developing Pickett as quickly as possible. We need to know if he's the future or an average NFL QB, imo.
very true
If competition is remotely close he gets the job . Mitch is insurance policy(a cheap term policy) . Not Winning A SB next year with Mitch. I was good with Trubisky signing, but it’s a dynamic situation and circumstances changed. I really hope Pickett starts.
I expect the Defense dragging the Offense kicking and screaming to the 6th/7th seed.
In other words, what we've seen the last few years. 2019 Redux.
Pending the record and timing…
Trubisky gets injured, short term it’s Rudolph, long term it’s Pickett…

I think Rudolph is gone if Pickett shows some competence in preseason. I just can't see Pickett not being active on game day. Trubisky seems like a durable guy so I'm going with poor performance opening the door for Kenny to step in -- about week 5-6.
Not the best time for a rookie QB to start his career against the 2 of the best teams in the NFL(Bills in week 5 and Bucs in week 6)!

Okay.... the following week lol. Those would be good games to end Trubisky's brief reign as starter.
I wouldn’t mind that at all but we all know how this team lives to hold onto veteran scraps because there’s a comfort factor there. Maybe it will be different out of the Ben/Colbert era…
in system he was in this is 49% true (remember other qb's publicly said that system sucked so its not hyperbole)
in this system we have no clue .... we haven't witnessed a meaningful snap yet and quite frankly we haven't the first clue what the system even is at this juncture ... we have heard rumored things but no specifics from anyone truly in the know so until its rolled out we won't know a whole lot about anything ....
the good thing about all that is we can remain hopeful , the bad thing is all we have to go on is what we seen in the past in terms of play calling from this OC ....
Time will indeed tell in either case ( or should I say both cases as we don't even know if this is a true NFL offense YET.... )

how about we let performance dictate if he ever is the starter and if he is let it dictate if he keeps the job or not instead of draft pos. dictating anything .............

It's possible now that Ben is retired, our offense will change....It's the perfect time to change our offense.
Let's hope it will be the case and that it will be positive!

I am just hoping the WR scheming that we saw last season (ie not able to get them open) was just a product of having Ben still here, or that something was learned to fix that issue. That really was my main concern not Ben related.
absolutely , change for the sake of change is never a good thing so if there is change it MUST be for the better

Haha!
Stats after day 1 in:
Early Overreaction Time.Mason Rudolph: 7/9 46 yards
Kenny Pickett: 4/7 21 yards, 1 INT
Mitch Trubisky: 3/7 10 yards
Why did we sign Trubisky in Free Agency when we already had him?
Welcome to the Quarterback desert.
Not even close at 5 yards per pass attempts!...In fact it was barely over 5 yards per completion!
Clearly the offense hasn’t changed…
