For starters, we need to stop saying we need to get rid of one. We got both for cheap, they both want to win a ring, and historically speaking, Pittsburgh usually LOSES GAMES the backup plays. This year we don't have that problem. So. Run with both get 12 wins, and give EVERYONE what they want - a shot.
Love how people want russ to go to mia to throw the ball down field. But isnt that what we need in Pittsburgh a guy that can throw the ball down the field??
JF definitely has a nice deep ball that’s never been his problem. His weakness was the speed of the game after the snap making his reads and pre snap reads. His ability throwing and running the ball is as good as anybody else’s besides the elite of the elite like mahomes, Allen burrow
True but last year and for his career Russ has proven that he can win game when trailing. The Steelers need a guy that when the team is behind they can win the game.
So sick of the disrespect to Wilson. He threw 26 tubs with a coach that hated him last year. Y'all lacting like Fields' body of work in Chicago is good enough to beat out a HoF quarterback in Russell Wilson. Insanity.
I am a RW3 fan, but the current OL is ideal for JF2, until Semaulo returns RW3 needs to get 100% because JF2 Legs is an Asset. Continue to Play JF2, because He is the Future!
I'm pretty sure it's not just the folks here, but the people inside the Steelers building. Perhaps they know a little bit more about the situation than the random nobodies here.
Go watch the tape again, buddy. Russell Wilson lead the league in throws behind the LoS for a reason. He holds the ball and takes way too many sacks. He also avoids the middle of the field and tight ends like the plague. The numbers don't tell the whole story.
@@MrFreshEdition they literally have the 8th best pass blocking line.. fields took 2 sacks on sunday on early downs because he couldn't get to his 2nd progession (muth was wide open over the middle)
What is Mike talking about “Russell’s PR Machine?” The Broncos tried to renegotiate his contract mid-season and threatened him with benching if he didn’t take it. Russell had every right to call them out on it!
We all know Tomlin lookin at the 1 TD number. Penalties matter. But the focus this year was more TDs. he talked at length about that in the offseason. Wins are important. but unless fields throws a bunch of TDs its still up in the air whether Russ takes his job. Our highest paid in the league defense has won the last 2 games. Our offense just didnt lose them.
imagine if you had jamar chase and t-higgins? Or smith and Ajay Brown or the bears receiving core? The thing is Pittsburgh sopend their money on defense, have a great defense and then their peabrain fans get all upset when their 31st ranked offensive payroll is not balling like The Chiefs
Highest paid n the league defense This is how they’re supposed 2 win There will B a few games where the offense needs 2 do more & we’ll C if they do More times than not, this is how they should win based on the salary cap
Fields has alot more designed runs this year, which can lead to injury. Tomlin will start Russ at some point to avoid giving the Bears maximum draft capital as well.
Sorry bruh he's a professional regardless of what o.c. you have you need to perform period. Justin is no franchise q.b. he's an athlete not a q.b He's done the job as a back up should he's no starter and he's no q.b. that's going to take you to a superbowl and win sorry
I wish both Fields and Wilson a great season this year in Pittsburgh. Keep in mind that Russell Wilson helped the Broncos last year wth a leaky O-line to beat the Chiefs, Bills, Charrgers, Packers, Browns, Vikings, and Justin Fields Bears. I do think Tomlin will start Russell at some point this season. Better supporting cast in Pittsburgh for both Fields and Wilson. Remember the 70 point blow-out the Broncos gave up against Miami last year? This shows you what Russ had to work with last year with the Broncos. As for this current season, Fields needs to start landing more points: KIcker (Boswell) 24 points vs. Fields (1 TD).after 2 games is not sustainable as the schedule gets more real for the Steelers. The schedule in the second half of the season is not as forgiving. The first 2 games were a gift for Pittsburgh. Hope to see more wins and more points as the Steelers continue their season.
Mike Tomlin is the perfect mentor to JF.JF shall become an all pro QB The issue with the Steelers they need an ( OL). The so called experts have been proven wrong that he can't throw down field.
They got a lot of significant pieces on the OLine through the draft. The Center looks good so far and Fautaunu looked like an upgrade over Broderick Jones when he came in for him. They has 3 guys on the oline with a total of 5 starts between them in this game. The holding penalties were on Jones
Not being fully honest. Russ was also injured during camp. But youth is always a boon. But Justin would have to truly grow over the season and I wish that for him. But you can't be mad if after the while Russ wants to go. It's kind of selfish to want him to remain a backup lol! People always wants players to do what's best for the team and not for their very short career.
Rib fracture, 2021 - 2 games missed Ankle injury, 2021 - 3 games missed Separated AC joint, 2022 - 1 game missed Hip strain, 2023 - 1 game missed Thumb dislocation, 2023 - 4 games missed Did you actually watch Justin Fields play in Chicago?
The competition definitely seemed too close 2 call. Bur at this point Fields has played more wirh these players so far this year neither QB has been lights out but Fields has played and took care of the ball. Had there not been so many penalties he would have hit the end zone more. The team is 2 and 0. U would definitely have Fields start this wk. If he ends up struggling u make a switch if not u ride this.
I must Admit JF2 has surprised me with his excellent QB Play. No Turnovers! Reading the Defense and completing passes over the middle of the Field, Throwing the deep ball with deadly pinpoint accuracy. Using his legs wisely. Executing the offense within the structure of the offense. He is shown tremendous improvement as he learning his 4th offensive scheme under his 4th Offensive Coordinator. JF2 orchestrated a 12-play drive that went 78 yards and took 7 minutes and 34 seconds off the clock that ended with a Darnell Washington TD pass. If you factor in the 51yd Catch that was negated by questionable penalty and the 6 Yd TD pass to Pickens that was also a questionable call. JF2 is 12 -14 158 yds 2td's 0 int which is a perfect passer rating of 200 And Steelers lead at Halftime 17-0. The Second half offensive execution and play calling would have been much different. At the moment, JF2 is growing and must continue to grow in this Arthurs Smith Offense. JF2 is 12 -14 158 yds 2td's 0 int which is a perfect passer rating of 200
So players can't speak out when they're being done dirty? That's "PR." This is probably the dumbest take I've ever heard. If Tomlin starts acting like douche ball Sean Payton, he better speak out.
I think this media guy who said that is friends with Sean Payton. If they don’t start Russ they better let him go. I think they will actually play both guys. Russ to be aggressive and Fields to slow things down. I think this is a unique situation that playing both could work well
Russ should not be starting. Both he and JF are the same kind of QB; both guys earn a living off schedule. But RW’a athleticism has declined and is therefore not as efficient playing that way line he once was. JF, conversely, is young, uber athletic and is therefore better off script.
Stop the madness, if Russell wanted out Tomlin would say go. “Volunteers, not hostages.” But No serious player wants to leave Tomlin, so useless argument.
The goal is to get Russell Wilson out of the league and make it seem like he can’t play anymore! I like Fields and he should be starting somewhere and so should Russ! But this media assassination of Russell Wilson’s character and rewriting history like he wasn’t that good is purely pathetic!
For starters, we need to stop saying we need to get rid of one.

@@defrank1870 You're absolutely correct, Steelers are quarterback rich. Aedin
@defrank1870 Exactly, today 9/30/2024 analyst Rex Ryan stated teams need 2 quarterbacks. Aedin
CAPTAIN RUSS IS SB '24 NOW.
Nobody else can do that.
Love how people want russ to go to mia to throw the ball down field. But isnt that what we need in Pittsburgh a guy that can throw the ball down the field??
If I'm Russ, I'm going to a place where I can play. Best of luck to the Steelers but I didn't uproot my whole family to sit on the bench.
JF definitely has a nice deep ball that’s never been his problem. His weakness was the speed of the game after the snap making his reads and pre snap reads. His ability throwing and running the ball is as good as anybody else’s besides the elite of the elite like mahomes, Allen burrow
Lol, Justin has literally completed it got DPI on almost every deep ball he’s thrown. They’re just being hella conservative
Facts
Russ is Mr. Limited!!!! Now!!!
The Steelers Defense is Great, and can overcome whatever mediocre QB is starting. They proved that last year, and it has continued into this season.
True but last year and for his career Russ has proven that he can win game when trailing. The Steelers need a guy that when the team is behind they can win the game.
@@Joel_Aleman oh I definitely agree. They should start Wilson as soon as possible.

@@TheInterestedObserver youre right. thats always been tomlins mo.
Highest paid n the league defense
This is how they’re supposed 2 win
There will B a few games where the offense needs 2 do more & we’ll C if they do
More times than not, this is how they should win based on the salary cap
Fields being the starter is best for the Steelers now and in the future. Best case scenario if it happens
Fields has alot more designed runs this year, which can lead to injury. Tomlin will start Russ at some point to avoid giving the Bears maximum draft capital as well.
This is Fields 3rd OC in 4 yrs give him time
Sorry bruh he's a professional regardless of what o.c. you have you need to perform period. Justin is no franchise q.b. he's an athlete not a q.b
He's done the job as a back up should he's no starter and he's no q.b. that's going to take you to a superbowl and win sorry
Negative, Wilson is the skilled quarterback; there's a lot of football to be played deep into playoffs. Aedin
they act like the season is 2 weeks lol I guarantee you if the steelers make the playoffs russell wilson is starting that game
@@send6pray Tomlin knows there's a lot of football to be played: the goal is Super Bowl, Ciara perform during halftime. Aedin
@@aedinquinn8687 C popping out with kendrick lmao
So happy to see less of Simms and more of Devin and Michael
Lol😂😅
I'm gonna feel gross if using fields to win early keeps Wilson fresh and he somehow ends up gashing beat up teams later in the season.
I been saying play both of them and stop this who is the starter non sense and I believe arthur smith is the perfect guy to balance that

If im Russ im tryna get to miami that offense will get his career back in track
Exactly what I've been thinking.
Miami sucks

In today’s league, if you wanna make it into the playoffs, you most definitely need 2 good QB’s to survive…..
Russ has a no-trade clause on his contract doofus 😂
You really think he wouldn’t wave that to go play somewhere if he’s ridin the bench in Pittsburgh???
@@davidmakcen3704especially Miami he can ball with them receivers
@@davidmakcen3704 he knows fields is terrible im sure future hall of famer russell wilson is shaking in his boots about "justin fields"

He won the job because he can read a defense and pass the ball accurately. Wtf is this guy talking about...
Sorry, no he is playing because RW was injured
@@martyransom6710 my comment was about Russ.. not Fields.. Fields never won the job.
He just lied and said JF has an injury history, WTH, since when?

There not rooting for my Steelers, their hoping to see them fail.
