Say what you will about Trubisky, but he's an immediate upgrade at QB. Pocket presence, decision making, field vision, checkdowns, scrambling, playmaking ability... all superior to KP.

I'm not saying Trubisky's great, that's just how badly KP sucks. Trubisky gives the team a much better chance to win. You'll see it this Thursday night.

lets see mason play........... the guy can throw deep

could he be any worse????

Mason's had many, many chances before. Let Trubisky play out the rest of the season. If it doesn't work, scrap all 3 of those losers and draft a QB in the 1st round next year. A good one.

Will Levis just destroyed most of the arguments for sticking with Kenny during his first ever NFL start yesterday.

Probably. Not one team even brought him in for a look. He was benched for Duck. Trubisky did get the Bears to two playoffs. He’s more athletic and has a better arm. But, at least we have Rudolph if all else fails. Mitch was rusty. He throws some dumb passes. But so does Rudolph.

KP's winning percentage with the Steelers is almost double Trubisky's winning percentage with the Steelers.

... I surely agree with Tommy (or he agrees with me)...

Play Mitch and let's see what he can do against the Titans.
The Steelers got a good excuse to sit Pickett due to injury.

If Trubisky is so good why was he benched last year? If he was good why would he be benched?

If I’m not mistaken the offense has been bad under Ben, Trubisky and Kenny?

Is it the QB’s fault the running game is bad. Would it not be a lot easier for a QB if a team had a good running game and a good defense.
The defense is bad against the run and the pass.

Because yinzers everywhere were losing their minds and booing Trubisky's every movement that wasn't a TD pass. He was railroaded unfairly. He was given 3 whole starts.

Kenny's had 19 now. He has 5 TDs in 7 games this season. 31st in scoring. He's godawful, but instead of blaming Kenny, yinzers everywhere are blaming everybody else from coaches to WRs to offensive line - all of which were shitty for Trubisky too.

But Trubisky got the blame, Kenny doesn't. It's acute homerism.

19 starts vs. 3 starts

Trubisky's sample size isn't large enough to make that comparison.

Who threw the interception with 3 yards to go for a first down with 9 minutes left and lose the game.

Charley3 · 10-31-2023, 07:23 PM

Wouldn’t hurt to start Mitch Thursday but I think Kenny’s smart enough to know he could lose his job if he doesn’t heal quick.
I agree Mitch was booed off the field but he did look terrible with us, but who hasn’t with us in years?

Charley3 · 10-31-2023, 07:53 PM

I’d start Mitch Thursday but I’d don’t think Tomlin will.

Trubisky was Pro Football Focus's worst graded QB of last week.

Another stat that means absolutely nothing. He didn't even start the game. He was called into action at the halfway point, when the team was already down 14 points.

Let's not forget, Trubisky came in last year vs. Tampa Bay in a similar situation, and won the game.

And now it seems Kenny can't read the room and he's "definitely going to play" Thursday night. Prepare for another loss, gents.

Charley3 · 11-01-2023, 08:35 PM

No use debating between what’s looking like 2 bad QBs.
In the off-season if Tomlin doesn’t hire a high level OC he should be fired.
