Rudolph is our quarterback.

Yeah, I'll be the bad guy and say this but even if we sneak in today, without Watt our chances are very low of making any noise and probably trending towards another playoff debacle.

I watched Stroud last night again, as much as we all may hope a new OC will turn Kenny around or make Mason better, we ain't got a dude like that. At best we have a fringe top 10 QB in the conference.

This team probably isn't good enough to win a playoff game with Watt either.

But maybe we can run a lot. Slow the play down. And get opportune turnovers. Watt will probably be out. But if Roberts and Fitz can come back, we might the middle of the field and the corners get a lot better (because Peterson can go back to CB). And Mason has been making plays (small plays and big ones) pretty consistently.

We'll be the underdog. But we've won a bunch of games this year without being the better team.

Either way, I'll always take another Steelers game. Even though this year has been mostly frustrating.

First Balt game, who else? We've lost more games as a significant favorite than the converse.
