Okay, so the Steelers, right? I mean, they’re kinda in this awkward dance where they might need to shuffle their quarterbacks again. Big sigh. Been there, done that, got the t-shirt. They brought back Mason Rudolph, which, let’s be honest, feels like when you go back to an ex just because they’re familiar. But hey, both their 2024 starters skipped town, so here we are.
Anyway, there’s all this buzz — more like a bee hive ready to burst, honestly — about Aaron Rodgers and Shedeur Sanders joining the crew. Now, imagine having both of them. Wild, right? But Nick Wright from FOX Sports basically threw cold water on that idea. He went, “Nah, that’s ridiculous,” on live TV. Something about it being hard enough with just Rodgers, let alone adding this young gun, Shedeur, who everyone seems to have a crush on. Can’t say I blame them.
Here’s the thing though: the Steelers threw an offer at Justin Fields — kinda like tossing a bone to a dog — but he ran off with the Jets instead. And don’t even get me started on Russell Wilson; he’s now doing his thing with the Giants. So yeah, the Steelers’ flirtation with Rodgers? It’s like when you’re texting someone, but nothing’s really happening. Been there too.
With the draft coming up, the Steelers sit with the 21st pick. Not really the sweet spot for landing a star QB, right? But Sanders — this kid is something! A lot of people say he’s a top-five kind of guy. Yet, rumors are swirling like coffee in a cup, and apparently, he’s slipped a bit. I mean, he even dropped by for a chat with the Steelers. Coincidence? You tell me.
Look, even if his stock falls, grabbing Sanders still feels like catching a rare Pokémon. Multiple teams are drooling over him. So trading up might be a must. If by some fluke, Sanders is there at 21, Nick Wright’s all in. He’d take Sanders over any complicated plan with Rodgers. Makes you think, doesn’t it?
Now, what would it be like if Rodgers and Sanders actually suited up together? Kinda like a buddy cop movie, but with more touchdowns. Rodgers, obviously, would be in the driver’s seat, but Sanders — sitting shotgun – getting all the quality tips from a legend. Steelers fans are all a-twitter (pun intended) because Tomlin knows how to keep things from going to chaos. Been doing it for years.
2025 could be a mess, I guess — spaghetti on a wall sort of situation — but who wouldn’t want to have those QB choices? Compared to past years when they, well… let’s not even go there. Here’s hoping for some magic. Or at least a season that makes us sit up and say, “Did you see that?”
