"Steelers' QB Controversy: Rudolph Starts, Pickett Backs Up Amid Injury Debate"

Gerry Dulac of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette strongly believes that Steelers' coach Mike Tomlin should continue playing quarterback Mason Rudolph if he maintains his performance, arguing that it would be foolish to switch back to a healthy Kenny Pickett for the season finale. Despite Pickett being seen as the franchise quarterback for 2024, Dulac emphasizes the importance of sticking with the "hot hand" in must-win games, suggesting that only a Super Bowl win by Rudolph could change the Steelers' plans for Pickett as their future starter. The debate hinges on Rudolph's performance in the upcoming games and whether the "hot hand" approach is appropriate for the quarterback position.
