Mason Rudolph is a little bit jealous of Will Howard and Drew Allar, but for reasons you may not think. Rudolph is jealous of the tutelage they have gotten so early in their careers that he didn’t get from a veteran QB or his head coach early on. Aside from the shot taken at Ben Roethlisberger and Mike Tomlin, Rudolph is very aware that the fanbase is starving for their next franchise guy. Fair to say he has a point? If Rudolph gets a shot this season, will he succeed under Mike McCarthy?
KDKA TV’s Bob Pompeani joined the show. Pomp thinks it’s a good broadcasting tool to go back and listen to your work, especially the PXP duties he has with Steelers preseason games. Bob said the preseason games are great for the ratings, even though people claim not to care. Bob thinks 4 QBs is a ‘logical’ move for the Steelers, but it will make things tight when it comes to the 53-man. Pomp was ‘stunned’ by Kaleb Johnson only playing 5 snaps against the Packers, but expects a larger workload tomorrow night. Has Pomp traded notes with Ian Eagle yet, who calls TV games for the Jets in the preseason? Is Gabriel Rubio bound for the practice squad even though he has put together a strong camp? Bob sees a different fire in Roman Wilson this year. After the call, we took a look at the TV crews for NFL preseason games.
Power Rankings – Top 5 guys you want on the Steelers roster instead of 4 QBs.
