Let's discuss!
To go further:
Jameis is rostered already, so it's irrelevant.
Cam sucks, and would be expensive.
Red Rocket sucks, and is a never was.
Cap is tight, the backup has to be cheap. So it's gonna be one of the guys on the roster already, or some surprise UDFA out of camp.
Jameis was a never option for me. Never wanted him here and don't believe he's a good fit here. Don't trust him and he's not a winner so, no thanks.
terry isnt good at backing up commentsHe won a BCS national championship, a Heisman trophy.. all while basically blind, and now he's had LASIK
1 yr contract worth up to $7m, but only $3m guaranteed... Too rich for the Steelers who are currently sitting just barely north of getting all of their rookies under contract.Dalton just signed with Dallas.
No way Cam takes backup money.
Let's pray Ben doesn't get hurt.
Even if cam does he doesn't fit here. He's never been known as a throwerDalton just signed with Dallas.

anyone but mason or duck, we lsot a season because of them...........
again i'll ask......cam whose made his living being mobile........has feet issues........
cam whose never been a good passer has recent throwing arm issues............
And hes aging............
Hes clearly a hot commodity...................
you also dont trust jameis, hes not a winner........
whats cam won again? about the same as jameis. i seem to remember him actually NOT TRYING to get a fumble in the superbowl, yep hes a winner folks!
But the training staff in pittsburgh's gonna juice him up and hes gonna be ay 'ok
dalton or jameis all day..........we absolutely CANNOT wast that D..........the bears did last year , and so did we........that window will shut ever so fast. You wanna let guys develop then fine. But you dont develop a guy when your in win now mode.......when you have a short window of an elite D. If mason or duck havent taken about 234 steps forward from last year, and ben gets hurt, season lost. Also that D will start to tail off.........will be good, not great..........
If we had anyone, halfway competent last year were in the playoffs with EASE, and were winning games.....that d was just nasty, if we coulda score 3 morepoints a game.......
He won a BCS national championship, a Heisman trophy.. all while basically blind, and now he's had LASIK

Stealing @SteelersPride's take from last season...
For the "Mason wasn't ready last year" crowd...
How many rookies, 2nd yr, or UDFAs even, stepped into the starting role last year and had instant success? And how many of those rookies were taken AFTER the 3rd Rd? Without looking it up, I'm positive that almost every single one of them last year were drafted AFTER the round Mason was. Or at least the vast majority.
Some of them may have had their struggles, but comparing them to Mason... Mason wasn't even close. He simply didn't measure up at any point to how those other guys played. Nothing of what we saw from Mason last year should have instilled ANY confidence to be optimistic about believing he could be a serviceable backup. I wouldn't even be confident saying he could become Landry Jones after 4-5 years of grooming. And how many of us even like Landry Jones? lol.
I want to give Mason the benefit of the doubt... I really do, but I just don't see it. The kid proved very little last year. He looked like a scared deer in the pocket, and all of his mechanics went out the window. He became a single read dump-off artist... As soon as he finished his 3-5 step drop he was immediately looking to the LOS for his release valve. And all this was BEFORE he took that shot to the face from Earl Thomas. I'll admit, during the preseason last year I thought Mason was the real deal. He was slinging it all over the field with ease. But as soon as he lined up week 4 he was DOA. I have no idea what happened to the preseason version of Mason, but it was long gone.
I don't know how fans are rationalizing Mason's future... We went from hailing a UDFA QB in Duck Hodges after 4-5 games of Mason's terrible play, to thinking Paxton Lynch could be the answer, to begging for them to bring in a backup QB, to now thinking: "I'm feeling confident in Mason" once again. WTH?
Right now Mason looks like a turd in the punch-bowl to me.
Anyone but Mason.Who was your vote for?
exactly u dimwit.......u failed to see the complete irony and idiocy of the comment. Clearly you still do.Says the guy who asked "whats cam won? about the same as jameis."
I'm completely fine with someone who thinks like you thinking I'm not good at backing up comments.
how has it helped cam?How has his BCS title and Heisman Trophy award helped him in the NFL?
really your going with the won more games argument.......and hes won an mvp with his legs. i didnt think u had much beyond a long winded reply saying nothing, called it.So, just to get this straight. You think what Jameis did in college 6 years ago is good enough to pay him to learn and lose all his bad habits? What he's done since then is just, what, forgotten about?
1 winning season in 5 years, just forgotten about.
30 INTs last year, just forgotten about.
No playoff experience, just forgotten about.
I try to stay civil with you but you just come at me out of the game with this fucking attitude and then you say STUPID shit like "whats cam won again? about the same as jameis." Like, are you for real?
Cam has won more games than Jameis. He's won an MVP, he's been to the playoffs, he's won playoff games, he's played in a conference title game, he's won an NFC title, he's played in a Super Bowl. Like, are you serious right now?
just give him time to develop.Anyone but Mason.
Ask me again in 2022 when he's up for FA...just give him time to develop.
