Musket: Pitt has a quarterback from the North Hills who can be accurately called “Big Phil,” which feels like it should be enough to make a Pitt quarterback invincible. However, Jurkovec struggled in a relatively unexpected loss to Cincy. What were the main issues and do Pitt fans think he can recover to have a strong season?

OPG: Saying Phil struggled against Cincy feels like the understatement of the year. He was 10/32 for 179 yards, and the receiver he targeted the most, Bub Means, made zero catches on something like 11 targets.
