GET UP | "Why Russell Wilson" - Dan Orlovsky says Justin Fields deserves to be Steelers' QB1

Big One in pittsburgh Who's going to be The quarterback russell Wilson played five snaps on saturday against Detroit led the steelers first team offense to their first touchdown of the preseason and then they took him right out Justin Fields came in he played three series he also led the team to a score After The Game Mike tomlin gave this timeline on the decision ahead we'll make a decision at the end of our work week this upcoming week Uh We got Three Days of steers versus steers work and Why not do it then it Kind of You Know minimizes the steers versus steers work when we start making decisions prior Uh to the completion of that we've got ample time to prepare for atlanta and make whatever decisions or announcements regarding divisional Labor or pecking orders and so forth and so we'll do it at the end of the work week Okay so they're going to do steeler versus steeler work and then make a decision at the end of the week Shy What should we take from that well itl Be The End Of The Week as he says and I think most people would be surprised if it weren russell Wilson I think Mike has been Pretty Clear from the outset of the offseason that russell Wilson has been to use his Words in the po position and russell Wilson has played well Enough To Win that job to keep that job However you want to freeze it And Again that doesn't mean that It's going to be a long It doesn't mean We're not going to see Justin Fields at some Point time but I think it would be a Surprise If He went Justin Fields over russell Wilson to open the season I I would think most people think that That's the mo he make that that Be The ste Open starting quarterback dansk if you were the head coach Of The pittsburg steelers Who you given the ball to I would have started Justin Fields but this was never a quarterback competition We were Bamboo a little bit and I have endless amounts of respect for Mike tomlin There was No way that This is a quarterback competition russell missed practice and only played in essentially one game Green I Remember When Both of the Moves were made being On The Show and we said if if this was really going to be an open quarterback competition I expected Justin Fields to win that this was never a quarterback competition russell played in preseason week two he threw the ball twice against the steelers Now Justin field has had the ups and downs the waves and whatnot I thought he threw the ball really well versus the Detroit lons everyone was going to say he took two more sacks neither of them were on him and so I understand the premise of like they're Banking on the hopeful more consistency from russell Wilson but this was never a quarterback competition if it was russell would have played much more in preseason week this past weekend I would have started Justin Fields and I would have tried to minim the Riding of the Wave That's not the case in pittsburg What do you think No I agree listen me person i would start Justin field he brings to the table from athletic standpoint that russ Wilson doesn't Both of these guys flw quarterbacks make no mist about it they quarterbacks but At least with Justin FS I got a game play something with him at quarterback especially in the running game you don't have anything to game against russell Wilson He is who He is and He's not in my opinion He's not going to get any better so like Dan said I think this was never a quarterback competition russ Wilson was always going to be The guy but me personally I would i would started J feld he feels Again he feels reer he feels like He's theon he russell with the Run game being What It Is with the Defense being What it is in pittsburg he feels like He's going to get a chance to Shine and you'll see the russell Wilson that we've seen in the past now Again We have to see Tom make the decision We to see russell go out and play but he feels like it's the Pieces are in place for him to play Better Than He has I'm trying to I'm trying to make up My Own mind What to make of the fact that he continues he being ml in this case continues to Push the announcement back If he already knows What He's going to do what I would say is and this applies to New England pittsburgh I don't understand Why they're announcing it at all What's the what purpose does that serve Again If I'm ger mayo I know you want to announce the decision but Why Am I telling The bengals Who The quarterback is the Media will see it But you say to the Media practice That's closed Off You can't say What We're doing personnel like What advantage is to say ine Which you tell me That's interesting Let's Be clear as far as transparency is concerned they're obligated to report injuries they're not obligated to report Who The starting quarter and people could figure it out they could sens it but Again you want every advantage you could have right and I would think that preparing for drake may and jacobe per are different russ Wilson and Justin Fields a little bit different and by the way If You're the falcons and You're getting ready for the steelers you probably have to prepare for both quarterbacks Anyway but What advantage do you Gain by saying to be What Comes out of that Danny Go ahead Yeah I would say This I don't know If There's An advantage that you Gain I don't know If There's a an advantage listen you got to know who your starting quarterback is the pittsburg steelers want to know as you go into the regular season Who's the guy you everybody's got to start to buy into what that decision or Who that decision is to your pointy the the atlanta falcons they're going to prepare for both quarterbacks It's not like they're not going to have a very specific Plan for If Justin Fields were to Come Into The Game because The designed quarterback Run is going to be a much kind of more staple part of their offense so they're not going to get surprised by that I don't think this is a deception thing by Mike tomlin I agree I don't know What's Taking So long to make the decision publicly cuz It's Pretty clear that It's been made privately players know Who's start quarter All You got to do in practice Everything a give in practice by reps and all that the players know we're not obligated to know but the players on on their respect squads know Who's going to be The starting quarterback week One so we'll see so they're on their way to making a decision and Maybe on their way to making it public that was big question number one 10 Days from the start of the season here Comes number two a decision at the end of our work week this upcoming week Uh We got Three Days of steers versus steers work and Why not do it then it kind of you know minimizes the steers versus steers work when we start making decisions prior Uh to the completion of that we got ample time to prepare for atlanta and make whatever decisions or announcements regarding division of Labor or pecking orders and so forth and so we'll do it at the end of the work week all right you've digested mik tomlin postgame press conference Jeremy faller here to dig a little bit deeper He's buying himself more time is Mike tomlin but time quickly running out so not naming a starting quarterback yet What are you hearing well m given jess field a little more time a couple more practices to make his case but they treated russell Wilson like the Starter that he Pretty much is on game day against the lions He went in a few plays got the touchdown they got him up out of there as We started Camp um russell Wilson being the guy Who's in po position and obviously Taking a look at these Numbers There's a solid reason Why Justin Fields played 14 snaps in that preseason finale and It has been a little bit different the way they've had to structure these Games since We only play three preseason Games and obvious russell Wilson getting that first team treatment just three snaps well Fields is an intriguing Talent for now in the future they can find a way to use them certainly He's been In The Mix getting a lot of first team reps and practice they've seen enough Where even Though He's a free agent in 2025 he could certainly be in their future plans Maybe play this year may they resign him and He's the guy for next Year They have two viable options that they like future plans Jeremy part of ours in this show He's Back In just a couple of Minutes for a second year quarterback that could Surprise Plus a star quarterback that benefited a performant [âm nhạc] sẽ cắt bớt đi một chút xíu mình bở phần dư đi nhá dư đi rồi bây giờ mình sẽ dán vào mình
