It felt as if Steelers’ fans didn’t know exactly how to handle the quarterback situation that was thrust upon the team during the 2019 season. While some fans understood neither quarterback who saw action was going to be Ben Roethlisberger, some felt anything shy of Roethlisberger‘s production was utter failure. Opinions fell across the entire spectrum when it came to both Mason Rudolph and Devlin Hodges.
One particular comment I saw repeatedly among Steelers’ fans was both quarterbacks only ran a “check-down” offense. Was this the case in 2019, and is there any sufficient data to support the claim?
