Week 17 Game Thread

What a great win. I don’t understand why these receivers are getting open now that Rudolph is quarterback. They were never open when Kenny was playing and I just don’t get why they would do that. Najee had a great game and he’s been nothing but classy while splitting time with Warren. Hopefully Kenny is healthy next week so he can lead us to the playoffs!!

I agree with everything but I want Rudolph to remain starter
 
Mason's pocket presence is infinitely better than the other QBs on the roster. Literally two years of incompetence on offense gone, yet some on here believe that an All-Pro QB wouldn't be able to succeed in this offense.

Give it up. Tomlin created this situation and was FORCED to play Rudy. If Mitch throws a TD in that game, he never gets benched and they go 7-10.

So if Mitch played decent they would have stayed with QB2? What a terrible coach.
 
Playcalling and QB play essentially defines this season and the most recent few seasons. In an offense oriented league, defense will have let downs-especially when playing 3/4th of each game. Injuries on D. You can't win without solid QB play. Two weeks in a row we got it from MR.

Remember who was the play caller then

He steered it into the brink of disaster, while leaving what is apparently his best QB on the bench for the vast majority of the season.

If non-losing season is what does it for you, Tomlin is the man. If it's winning championships, not so much anymore.

These are undeniable facts. I'm just going to enjoy the moment.

I'm digging running the ball to set up the pass again. They still do zero play action,but I'll take it.

Love seeing them smash.

It is the timing of the throws. Especially the throws over the middle. In the NFL the windows are very small. Rudy pulls the trigger on them. Pickett and Tribisky didn't.

Psst they’ve been open like that all year, Pickett is flawed in his progressions and pocket presence

Decent, it would have been a questionable call. That wasn’t what it was.

They were open often, and he didn't stay in the pocket or see the reads. Plenty of footage showing this on youtube.
