Former Super Bowl Champion Thinks Mason Rudolph Is The Difference Maker
Mason Rudolph looks like a different player this time as the Steelers starting quarterback. Former defensive back and Super Bowl champion Ike Taylor discussed Mason Rudolph’s play with Mark Bergin on a recent Bleav in Steelers podcast episode.
“People have to understand Mason was a dog at Oklahoma State. If you ask Mason, I am sure he might say he had an unfair shot when it comes down to his opportunities to either be a starter or a backup on the roster,” said Taylor. “He is taking advantage of his opportunity right now, and he is really comfortable with George Pickens and Dionte Johnson, and Pittsburgh is doing a good job with the dual coordinators learning how to mix up the running game and letting the running game turn into the play-action game.”
Rudolph has completed over 74 percent of his passes this season and has a 118 quarterback rating in four games since taking over for the injured Kenny Pickett. The Steelers are 10-point underdogs to the Bills this weekend, according to BetOnline.
