Trubisky named Steelers' captain

[Inigo Montoya]

 

I hope he has a great rebound season for a few reasons;

 

1st;   He seems like a genuinely good guy.

 

2nd;  I've always been a sucker for a good comeback story.

 

3rd; The idea of coming to Buffalo to revitalize your NFL career is a great narrative for the Bills. 

 

Good luck Mitch!     

 

(Except for Week 5.  I hope you throw 5 picks that week and fumble twice)

Don't care for the steelers but he seems like a good dude. Good luck to him

I'm torn I also like mitch, even before here it was pretty obvious he got a raw deal.

That said I watch a lot of pitt the last few years and I want KP to win starting job. Hoping mitch plays will and Pickett just looks so good they can't keep him off field.

Side note Pickens is going to be the best WR off the class.

To me it was all about the over hype he got and then the ineptitude of the Bears. 
 

he can be a starter but not necessarily a top 10 kinda guy

I would've already picked him pre draft, buy once WR Univ drafted him, it became a lock

[Mr. WEO]

Has he been named starter?

[ddaryl]

Him being named Captain means he's earned the respect of the coaches and the team... 

 

I'm happy for him.

I thought Pickett was starting? Guess I’m wrong…..

Zach Wilson was named captain for the Jets..

Tua named captain for the Dolphins..

 

Amazing that we live in a time with so many QBs being such great leaders.. and it's not at all a default for the QB

This is awesome. My daughter was a nurse in the pediatric ICU at UNC hospital.  She currently is pursuing a PhD as a certified nurse anesthetist at Duke (dad brag moment).  Mitchell was a frequent visitor to the pediatric ICU during her time there. Just a super good young man.

Maybe it is just a starting QB situating

If not he should be by default. IMO, when you have a rookie QB you let the incumbent lose the job first. That way there is no questioning the decision when you put in the rook. Because rookies will always struggle eventually. Pitt knows what they're doing. On the flip side, we saw the Dolphins botch that up in Tua's first year.

Good for Mitch, sorta....

 

1. He has a "local" grad in Pickett, waiting in the wings.  It will be early in the 3rd quarter of week 1, when Steeler fans are calling for the rookie to take over.

 

2. Steelers oline is bad, likely bottom 5 of NFL.  Good thing Mitch has his mobility

 

Not liking his chances of a rebound season, specifically #2, but also the pressure of holding onto his starting job each week. I think we will see Kenny take over by week 8.

Steelers have a new IOL.  If they play well enough to give Mitch time, I feel he will succeed.

They open on the road against the Bengals and then home against the Pats.

That ought to tell a lot about how they can play.

About 2 weeks ago.

I think you’ll be surprised. Mitch is a very solid QB and will finally be able to show that.
