Mason Rudolph mania: Can the Steelers steal a win vs. the Bills‪?‬ Bleav in Steelers

    • Sports

"Bleav in Steelers" hosts Ike Taylor and Mark Bergin discuss the Pittsburgh Steelers' NFL Wild Card matchup against the Buffalo Bills.

The Steelers are a 9.5-point underdog, according to BetOnline.ag.

Mason Rudolph has led the Steelers to three straight wins to finish the 2023 regular season. Rudolph will likely start again against the Bills.

Najee Harris has had back-to-back 100-yard games for the first time in his Steelers' career.

The guys also discuss the contributions of the Steelers' rookies: Broderick Jones, Joey Porter Jr., Keeanu Benton, Darnell Washington and Nick Herbig.

Meanwhile, the Bills have won five consecutive games. Josh Allen's 18 interceptions were the second-most in the NFL during the regular season.

The Steelers will be without star edge T.J. Watt who is out with a grade two MCL sprain in his knee. Rookie Nick Herbig and Markus Golden will fill the void along with Alex Highsmith.

Safety Damontae Kazee is expected back for the Steelers after a suspension. The Steelers could also get Minkah Fitzpatrick back from a knee injury.

Last, the guys talk about Mike Tomlin's 17-year tenure with the Steelers in which he hasn't had a season where the team finishes below .500.

Tomlin's Steelers haven't won a playoff game since January 2017, but the team finished the 2023 season with a 10-7 record. The Steelers' offense has struggled in the last several years too.

Bergin asks whether Tomlin should have played Rudolph over Mitch Trubisky sooner, but explains the rationale behind the decision.
