How would you feel if Mason Rudolph was named QB1 heading into the 2025 season?

Lead our sleigh!
He’s in pole position.
I’d hate it but just deal.
The best realistic scenario. 9-8 like every other year, and didn’t waste $30 mil on a veteran for a year. Or 3-14 and a good draft pick.
Seriously, at this point, who cares.
That it would be an obvious wasted season and and if anyone thinks otherwise then they have than they have either have their homer blinders on or they never watched Mason play outside of a three game stretch two years ago
I like Mason. He’s a really good backup. But the Steelers are not a serious team next year in any capacity if we start him every game and I think if that’s the route we go then we should just trade TJ now because whats the point of having him next year. Hes been in the league for 8 years. He is who he is
I’d be happy with it. Give Mason a full season. Always been a fan of his.
He is a decent QB2. A QB1 who can lead us to the Super Bowl? No. We’ll get a decent draft pick next year.
At this point, I don’t care as long as it gets us his replacement in the 2026 draft.
Literally a win-win. This roster (and coaching staff) isn’t winning crap this year regardless. If Mason plays amazing, AWESOME! We have a QB. If he plays decent, Awesome! We have a bridge that a rookie can sit behind. If he sucks nuts and we finally have a losing season, awesome! We get a high pick in a draft with good QB prospects. And we don’t burn $30 mil on a douche bag who can’t be bothered to make a decision till he’s spent a minimum of 100 hours shroomed out of his mind in a deep Amazonian mud hut
I’m fine with it. Give him the season and see what happens.
Not loving it but yall remember the fight with Miles? Mason was psycho!!!! You gotta root a little for Mr. American Psycho!
Tommy Maddox 2.0, and I’m just fine with that
Fuck it, we ball
Gets us a better 2026 pick and is basically free. I’m for it
Much better than I would feel with A Rod as QB1
I support it over A A Ron
Terrible especially after burning a 2nd rounder on DK and paying him
This is actually the scenario I’m hoping for at this point. I think Rogers will be a toxic waste of money and hope he doesn’t sign. Mason will be a decent bridge to get us to the future. He is this era’s Mike Tomczak or Tommy Maddox and I’m cool with that for a season or two.
Better than if Aaron Rodgers is
Great. See what happens if we lose then great better position for qb next year.
Better than Rogers.
There’s such few options that I’m mailing it in for 2025. I think seeing mason would be more fun than the 3 years we had with Pickett and Tribs to be honest. Atleast he gave GP his best game in the 3 he started. Couldn’t really be worse than the QB play we’ve had since 2021. My opinion
Better than i would if AR was QB1. We never gave Rudolph a proper chance to show us if he can be a proper starter
Honestly I’d be happy that it’s drama free, and we have a volunteer, not a hostage.
Doesnt change the O Line protection skills.
Anyone that’s not Aaron Rodgers.
Always has been
Are we watching the same football? They definitely should’ve resigned Russel or Fields. Fields still young with a promising future. Russel had no one to throw the ball to and that was shown after Pickens was out 4 games . We at least now have two deep threats and let’s not forget our secondary suspect. But I’m sorry give me Russ any day over Rodgers
Let’s do it! I feel like he’s matured a lot since the last time he was given the reigns.
Deeply relieved because we would have passed on Rogers, a cancer in any locker room.
He’s not Aaron Rodgers, and I love that about him
I’m gonna need that Dexter Laboratory meme with Mason’s picture on it saying “stunt on these hoes”
Whelmed.
I’d rather lose 13 with mason than win 5 with Rodgers.
