Sureā¦
I thought Rudolph made more NFL throws tonight. I don't know who ****** up on the Jet motion. Haskins made more throws from awkward platforms adjusting to what was there. Dobbs was good but Dobbs is Dobbs and will never be an NFL starting QB.

It looked like Rudolph messed up on the fumble. Regardless, he was the better QB tonight, though still looks nothing more than a solid backup or below average starter. Haskins probably had some jitters in his first game with his new team. The arm strength is there but there wasnāt a dump off that he didnāt like and failed to connect on what shouldāve probably been a TD pass. I need to see him take more chances down field next game and put one in the end zone as his career TD:INT ratio is atrocious.
If I was guessing Rudolph was supposed to pull the ball on the Jet motion and give to Harris. They ran it 3 or 4 times after. I'd say he ****** it up.
The best nickname for PH3 came in the Q&A tonight from FB: Biggus Kickus!
Heās still a GA techie alum though.We can call him "Piercy" because I thought he was going to pierce thata couple times.
Feels soā¦.

Didn't need to rewind my DVR. The ball hit him in the hands, and it was well within his catch radius. He pulled up. Period. Not that I blame him really, it's a meaningless game. However, after you go through the Cowboys' sideline waving the 1st down signal after a 6 yard catch, you maybe shouldn't act like a ***** a couple plays later. I guess you gotta keep your tick tock audience happy.
Right on Sarge.
Its to the point where my wife an kids have to tell me the Steeler game is started and on TV..

AGREE, to a degree they called skill appropriate plays for each respectively. Obviously Mason's were higher up the play book. Can't compare to closely yet as the coaching staff was trying to get them comfortable with-in themselves. Red Nose leads over party boy and still #2.

EXACTLY what I saw as well. The whole game Claypool was pining for the camera. Look at me had best get his ******* head in the game come start of season. Last night he was there for the ride.

It's early yet and hard to judge from mostly the second string playing but I might have to stick with my 8-9 prediction.
I liked the signing when it happened...I believe I mentioned that here when it happened?
Hopefully he is not hurt too bad..
Ballage can be that solid number 2.

I am liking Claypool less and less. The guy is very talented and is capable of making spectacular plays, we saw that last year. As his popularity grew, so did the antics. He, much like Juju seems more interested in the show than showing up, playing football and winning games. I know a lot of people were happy the Steelers retained Juju, but I wouldn't have been upset to see him walk. Claypool isn't far behind.
Yeah its basically one half of one gameā¦ not time to judge yetā¦.
but here is his battleā¦.
Mason isnāt getting cutā¦ he has a negative cap hitā¦ coupled with having to add the extra contract to the cap we are talking losing a million this year for a player not playingā¦ that isnāt happening without a trade for significant assets coming back
Haskins is going to have to significantly outplay Rudolph to be the backupā¦ one of tge guys knocks in DC was that he wasnāt prepared on gamedays so he isnāt going to get it gifted to him on arm strength
he legitimately is in a battle with dobbs for QB 3ā¦. Dobbs is a legitimate backup Qb and is already really good at the mental side of the game and Ben likes his sideline inputā¦
i get Haskinsā potential but I still think the media has portrayed him in a rosier position than he is inā¦ there is as much of a chance the kid gets put on a practice squad as makes the teamā¦ he isnāt a sure bet at allā¦
ive seen enough huge arms that amounted to squat in the league to know that big arm just means you get a bunch of looks through your career
What he has to do is show he can make the reads and not toss picks constantly . Last night was a good first step but he will have to show more to move the needle. He hasnāt forced their hand yet for sure
it was a vanilla gameplan and not too much should be taken from the stats, but I thought he was Meh out thereā¦ he needs to be better than mehā¦.
Haskins still has time. And they have cut Dobbs at least twice maybe three times so he is not indispensable. That said Tomlin shared a nugget about Haskins. in essence he said he has looked good in football like drills. Football games remain to be seen. Drills will always favor the guy with the big arm. Games favor the guy with the ability to see the play and the defense. That said I was impressed with Haskins ability to throw from multiple platforms and get the ball effectively to the check down.
Me and my sons were commenting that physically Highsmith looks like Lamarr Woodley 2.0. He just has a similar build and demeanor on the field. I maintain he will be hard to get off the field. Let's be clear he is not in Watt's rhelm but TJ plays with that high motor persueing everything from backside. It might be TJ that Ingram ends up spelling as much as Highsmith.
Coach will really have a mental breakdown then...first Chickaslow and now Vander Esche???

I'm rooting for all the QB's but I don't see what you did...take a look again.
Except for the shot he took down the field to I don't know who to his left at the pylon in the third quarter it was all checkdowns, crosses and a couple counter boot throws. Now maybe that was all that was there. Like I said I did like how he changed his platform to make two of those throws in the flat on the check down.
