bigben07MVP Posted August 11, 2022 Share Posted August 11, 2022 No surprises but Trubisky starting Saturday, followed by Mason and then KP. Also said starters will play the full first quarter. I hope guys like TJ, Cam, Najee, Minkah etc will be held out but I wouldn’t be surprised if Tomlin plays them all. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bigben07MVP Posted August 13, 2022 Share Posted August 13, 2022 Desmond Ridder looked pretty damn good tonight too. I really hope Pickett shows something tomorrow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not that you cant take anything away from these games, but alot of mediocre and even bad QBs have balled out in preseason. Not saying they are going to be bad, but it really doesnt really mean anything in regards to their future success. It just means they look semi decent against 2nd and 3rd string, vanilla defenses. Coaches are just trying to see how well these rookies understand the offense. Doubt they put much stock into how they stack up against career backups, other rookies and training camp fodder. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m 100% with you, I’m not drawing any big conclusions from week 1 of preseason. I didn’t watch the full Falcons game for Ridder but Willis also made a few egregious mistakes (missed Treylon Burks for a wide open TD) and even got benched. I just want Pickett to go out there and give us something to be excited about, even if it’s against future car salesman. Does anyone remember how Ben played in his first preseason? I genuinely don’t remember. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jebrick Posted August 13, 2022 Share Posted August 13, 2022 Remember when Ben had to start, they modified the offense for him. And yes, he could do more on a broken play than most rookies but still the offense was tailored to him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
