Nailed it.Fields must be coming now?

Wilson and Fields give you a more mobile duo at QB, which is needed behind the OL IMO. Wilson no longer runs a lot but he can dance around in the pocket to buy time.Gotta be honest, I would have felt more confident in Wilson & Kenny. But Fields isn’t a bad get. He gives us just as much upside as Kenny did. Fields has better arm talent though, so there’s that.
I think we can all be happy they got rid of Mason & Trubisky… Except for Terry lol.
We're the Poverty Edition Ravens offense now.All joking aside, Russell Wilson and Justin Fields is a better QB room than any combination Trubisky, Pickett and Rudolph could have ever given us. With that said, we are running into the situation where we have essentially admitted that the Trubisky signing was a bust, drafting Kenny Pickett was a bust and that the "pocket passer" type QB is not a thing that the Steelers are putting their chips in now. This to me means a totally different offensive attack, different offensive playbook and, in all honesty, a totally different outlook on how the offense will operate on a baseline level. With all that said (again), if this does not work, and this is just my opinion, but if this doesn't propel us to at least a division title or if we are still stuck at 10-7, 9-8 and don't make it out of the first round, then it's time to fire Mike Tomlin. That's the only change left. We've changed QBs, OCs, DCs, signed the right guys at the right prices, the only thing left to change is the Head Coach and I think it's time for all Steelers fans to realize that if this season doesn't improve at all. Even a first round playoff win would be worthy of saying this season was a success in my opinion. But we can't keep making changes to every position on the team, players and staff, keep barely making the playoffs and exiting in the first round and keep Mike Tomlin.
Arthur Smith is the new OC. He can figure it out IMO.All joking aside, Russell Wilson and Justin Fields is a better QB room than any combination Trubisky, Pickett and Rudolph could have ever given us.

Absolutely, fuck yes. Its been time to cut his ass looseArthur Smith is the new OC. He can figure it out IMO.
Fire Tomlin? Fuck no.
BahahahahahaView attachment 357419Love the upgrades but this is hilarious.
I love that addition.
Look at all the QB's the Steelers had after Bradshaw retired until Ben was drafted. Complete dog shit for the most part.It can be brutal when your franchise quarterback retires. The Broncos have been in QB purgatory since Manning left and Rothlisberger left a big gaping hole in Pittsburgh. It can take years or even decades to find the next one. Broncos are headed into year 8 without a legit QB and they're nowhere closer to having one.
I think Pittsburgh has done really well for themselves, given the fact that their current QB situation cost them nearly nothing. If Wilson plays well, the Broncos will be covering his salary for you for a couple of years. The potential upside with Fields is also there. Minimally, the Steelers bought themselves a couple of years of still being competitive, while they search for the long term answer. That answer won't be Wilson but he'll win you some games. Fields is kinda the wild card in this one.

And now since Ben retired they are already guaranteed to have their 4th starting QB, this doesn't happen over night and honestly I am glad they aren't sitting on one player too long hoping they become good (IE..Pickett) and moving on quickly.
Don't forget Stoudt, Woodley, Scott Campbell, Jim Miller, Steve Bono,Todd Blackledge and Kent Graham.Dog Shit? You had a problem with Malone, Brister, O’Donnell, Tomczak, Stewart and Maddox before they drafted Ben?
Essentially, this is the highlight of that period of Steeler QB's.I drank away the memory of Todd Blackledge…..
