Interesting quote from Fichtner here @ATL96Steeler @SteelersPride

 

[SteelersPride]

I think they reached and panicked when the took Rudolph, then tried to justify it. He’s not that good

Switz ain't goin anywhere folks... Pencil him in

Sneaky good FF pick @SteelersPride ?

I'm really starting to wane on him. Used to read a lot about his fall from grace that year in the draft had more to do with the hype of others than Rudolph's abilities. Made it seem as thought the Steelers got a helluva steal in the 3rd. But more & more its becoming reality that Rudolph seems destined to be a backup at best.

That's a pretty damning quote from Ficht. Makes it sound like he's still a long ways away.

Tweet from the new RB coach:

Don't tell Treff or Stomp!

If Hargrave & Tuitt both step up in a big way this season then this defense will be sneaky good.

Some great camp stats here...

@ATL96Steeler @SteelersPride




Don't just take them for face-value though... A lot has to do with opportunities. Reportedly Snell had 35 carries to Conner's 15, and Snell is primarily running against the 2nd & 3rd team defenses where Conner is running against the likes of Heyward, Tuitt & Hargrave. Also, don't get carried away with Spencer. I've seen a lot of videos of him dropping wide-open passes in the seams that have me very concerned. Sort of a 1-trick pony sotospeak.

Interesting 1st team combo on the O-line

 

[FaCe-LeE-uS]

Is Rudolph at risk? Doubtful but Hodges is making a strong statement.

“He’s getting some opportunities. He’s going to get some opportunities I think you refer to him as a fourth arm but every man here is a man that has a legitimate opportunity. Particularly so when Ben (Roethlisberger) is the quarterback because you know there is going to be regular scheduled days off and increased opportunity for others. So we’re not taking his presence for granted, and neither is he.”

Like the competition!

These guys will get their chances to shine starting on Friday.

Feels like every year we get a "minor" injury and it turns out to be much worse... I hate when Tomlin downplays injuries. Just tell us the damn truth.
