Terrible Towel: NFL is leaves Steelers a terrifying message.
Welcome to the new “Towel Tales” series! Every Monday through Saturday, we will highlight the latest stories coming out of the Pittsburgh Steelers media. In today’s news, the NFL sends a strong message to the Steelers regarding their quarterback situation. Teams were telling the team to watch, because not every situation is as simple as Pittsburgh is trying to make it look.
This weekend, all three of the Steelers’ starting quarterbacks lit up the scoreboard on their way to victories, but it wasn’t always as easy as it looked on the stats. The Steelers got a clear message from the three signal callers on how they should approach the rest of the season.
On Thursday Night Football, the Patriots stunned the Steelers, 21-18, led by quarterback Mitch Trubisky’s 1-yard first-half touchdown. The Steelers, led by quarterback Ben Roethlisberger, were 3-for-14 on third downs and had one play of 20 yards or more until the final possession of the game. They scored 15 unanswered points to cut the Patriots’ lead to 21-18. However, on two drives that could have tied or even won the game, the Steelers had a combined 35 yards in 13 plays, including a punting and a turnover on downs. The Patriots, now 3-10, had their first win since Oct. 22, while the Steelers, now 7-6, lost for the second time in a row to a team at least eight games below.500, according to the Amazon broadcast.
Here are the 8 different routes that the Steelers can go with quarterback Mitchell Trubisky in 2024:
This would allow Minshew to step in and take over. You could keep Pickett on the team and let the competition for the job be open next season. Pickett would probably have the advantage given the money invested in him, but Minshew is the safe bet in the league. He’s a quarterback who can do it all. He’s not flashy or flashy, but he can control the game and take what defenses throw at him. He’s also a tough player who finds ways to win in the clutch. No, he’s not the next Patrick Mahomes, but he can hang around until you bring in a franchise quarterback.
