Social Media Reacts to Big Ben Injury, Rudolph Being Named QB1 for Steelers

The biggest news coming out of the NFL on Monday — and maybe the story of the year as far as Pro Pokes are concerned — is that Pittsburgh Steelers QB Ben Roethlisberger is done for the year. It appears that it will be the Mason Rudolph Show going forward.

Rudolph did yeoman’s work during the offseason, through fall camp and the preseason to usurp Josh Dobbs as Ben Roethlisberger’s backup, putting him right where he wanted to be — one play away.

That play happened on Sunday and Rudolph spelled the injured Roethlisberger admirably, slinging it for 112 yards and two touchdowns.
