Ben Roethlisberger on Mason Rudolph: "Mason can get the guys the ball. He can throw. Mason can throw the ball. Like, that's never been a question. He can get guys, he can make decisions, and get the ball out of his hand and he's not afraid to take shots down the field either. You know, that's one of the things I think that as you've watched Mason when he was here and then in Tennessee, like he's not one of these guys that gets nervous and just wants to get the ball out his hands right away. He'll sit in there and he'll throw it down the field. And I think that's what you got to do when you have George Pickens and DK Metcalf, those are deep down the field type guys. And so, if you don't end up getting Aaron [Rodgers], which is what I think you'd want if you want to make your offense a wider net offense and create more things. If you don't end up getting him, I think you can stick with Mason and be happy with what you're gonna get." #Steelers #NFL
Steelers have been playing super conservatively on offense b/c their #1 goal is protecting the ball. When they do, they win. When they don't, they lose.
Of course, this is limiting to make a serious playoff run.
