I think I follow that guy specifically because I thought he was a funny schtick. You sure it's not?

And saying you can get him in the 10th round or later. He's not wrong. You can. But like ... You know.

Starting week 17 vs the Browns. Ben gets a rest.
Watch Rudolph play pretty well, now that he's not needed to save a season. He did play pretty decent his first couple starts last season.

Rudolph has shown flashes but his biggest problem is he rarely throws the ball more than 5 yards beyond the line of scrimmage. If he continues that trend it should be a pretty easy day for the Browns.

Any predictions on the sack count for Garrett?
Steelers homer here. And I agree.
When Mason was drafted in the 3rd round they claimed they had a 1st round grade on him.
At best he will be a career backup. If he ever starts it will be out of necessity. In other words he’s not very good.

I can't read the article but I hope the title is click bait. Garrett vs Rudolph is such a minor story here. The Browns NEED this win, period. No one in CLE gives a flying #### about that old story.Faust said:

So he'll have a job as A QB? Yeah, prolly.
The guy already had all the "positives" mentioned in the fluff of that article....and yet the Steelers immediately put the new guy, who almost everyone views as a failure to this point in his career, above him in the pecking order for reps.
If he's any good at reading tea leaves at all, Mason shouldn't be buying a second house in Washington County or anything.

From Titans website- In the team's first nine practices of training camp, Rudolph completed 82-of-98 with two interceptions in the 7-on-7 and team drills in camp.
The guy was at 82% completion rate and I've been expecting it to go down but he's absolutely killing it as the second string QB

He will be the starter by year's end. After the Levis Mayonnaise revelation, I know his decision-making process is flawed and its only a matter of time.

Its you and me buddy.
This seemed like "no way" in May but I had someone telling me some good facts on Rudolph on X. (Will edit and link, here https://x.com/DBAkron/status/1813258580021178434 this guy has some points to make!)
Then it's been he and Willis competition but he clearly is the veteran they need a veteran and oh btw there's a young starter and the veteran stuff has a shine to it.
His accuracy has been phenomenal and I can't believe it really. Back down to earth during Seahawks days but still good just not 83%.
So there's this wow he is better than I thought but why didn't I notice if I followed him at Ok St and expected him to be a good pro? What's his deal?
Bloom said something like he's a different QB when the pocket breaks down or he's always been good with a clean pocket. So hmmm
Back around full circle- unless Daddy Callahan fixes the right side of the line, I'd second guess playing Rudolph because the Titans have had one of the worst OLs two years in a row and very bad three years ago. What Bloom said offers some pause.
Idk now because we don't know how Levis will do. That will obviously factor in here hugely. Once we know that, this is an easier Q

Rudolph never had the opportunity to take the majority of first team reps in Pittsburgh until last year. Always took the blame with media when OL or WR messed up. Has an NFL arm. Makes good decisions. Under rated.
Thrilled he landed in a spot with a decent shot of earning starts after Levis displays his capacity for decision making and accuracy.

He had 10 as a starter games in 2019

I honestly dont remember how he played his 1st few years. But I can tell you based on last year he definitely has the guts to stand in the pocket until it collapses, for better or worse. In other words, I wouldnt call this a problem for him. But hes not going to go all Lamar Jackson either.

Sooo coach was not pleased with either backup QB and thought they both settled down well but they need to do a better job being ready to go.
I think everyone could see Rudolph get it together and put out a nice drive and suddenly it doesn't look frantic. Malik then looked better and that's probably evidence of what they want Rudolph's affect to be on Levis.
I wasn't so sure Willis had that in him and that was very good for him too. INT at the end aside, he looked good in the second half

Coach said it'll go down to the final game deciding who the 2 is.
First of all- kudos to Malik because again he battled way better than anyone predicted.
Rudolph's 82% completion rate has dropped but it's still OMG. He has a veterans way of calming things and not only did I expect he's win the 2 spot but that if Levis falters, he could sub in.
Coach talking of history today was a surprise I didn't see coming but should have. Something like "there's a history there we've played against Rudolph and prepared for him" with negative tone. That really takes the shine off a good summer. Or does it? It's really interesting to guess which way they think.
He went on to say they may keep three may put one on PS and keep two, may just keep two. That hasn't been decided at all and will come down to numbers.
Both will play week three
Same in Malik thread and here

After coaches comments, you have to pick him up if it's a QB desperate league.
I still think Levis has some time. I think we gotta admit that Monday's frustration with young QBs is often washed away by Friday.
I'm in many leagues where there's 8+ QBs on the WW but in a few the pickings are slim as some teams have three QBs. In these only- ya gotta pick up Rudolph.
Day off coming, time to chill and regroup. We'll see quotes as the week progresses and how coach is thinking of this

I'm expecting offensive meeting+ week of news+ Trevor Seiman activated means Rudolph starts.
Burks is out so NWI plays and maybe a little gadgety stuff to Jahquan Jackson.
The Bills presence already meant the Titans would have to put up a bunch of points but (probably) being down their top two CBs against Allen puts some emphasis on that.
Maybe, probably, we see the Callahan offense and not some stripped down offense for a developing QB. Maybe then we can see the WRs play closer to their capability.

Yes
They've made it simpler and simpler for Levis and this week the film gurus were saying it's as simple as can be- can't take away anything else
