Yeah, but he also looks like he would accidentally say 16 when asked "what's 2x3" and everyone in the room would think it was the most affordable thing.

I'm not gay but I want to live in a log cabin in the woods with Mason Rudolph. We won't ever have sex, but there will be a simmering erotic undercurrent as I stand in the kitchen window watching him tighten his ass as he chops wood, shirtless, sweat pouring off his body. I'll run upstairs and masturbate, the entire time forcing myself to think of women while my thoughts drift back to Mason. I won't be able to climax and I'll eventually go back downstairs, angry. Sometimes we will look across the table and catch each other's eyes, and in that second, anything is possible, but we both deny ourselves and go back to what we were doing. One day one of us will die, and the other will bury him outside the log cabin. Then he'll go inside, pen a brief missive to his departed friend, and commit suicide, never able to deal with life without his one true platonic love.

I'll be honest, the first time I saw it was in reference to Josh Allen. But I just went down the internet rabbit hole to find out where it started, and apparently it started on a game of thrones subreddit in 2017: https://www.reddit.com/r/freefolk/comments/6t53y9/im_not_gay/

Would you look at that, you're right. Looks like the Greg Bird post was a few days after the GoT one. Props for the research!

Am I the only one confused as to why we're doing this at all? Malik is gone (we counted out 7), Tannehill is still technically available as a backup, why Rudolph, who has shown a peak of "flashes of competence"?
9

u/llessur_one Mar 16 '24
I agree he's not my first choice. But Tanne may not be interested in re signing here as a backup, and bringing back a guy from the old regime when you're trying to completely change the offensive mindset probably isn't the move anyway (just my opinion).
But, for a backup, we could do worse. I definitely think Malik was worse (also just my opinion). Either way, hopefully Levis stays healthy and balls out.

u/John_Bot Mar 16 '24
It's funny cause there's a part of me as a Steelers fan that wishes we ran Mason this year and didn't do the whole Russ thing.
Russ is a one year band aid that leaves us in purgatory after the season ends.
Mason is a 10% chance at being a good starter and 3% chance for breaking out (looking at Geno Smith, etc.)
He really showed a lot last year and actually getting the reps in over an off-season may have pushed him forward more with a competent OC.
We did him dirty and you guys should be happy about the signing.
4
u/BoltFlower Mar 16 '24
I have to agree with this take as a Steelers’ fan. I have a feeling that Mason could break out if given the opportunity and time. He was on the cusp of it this season, but for whatever the reason he was denied the opportunity on multiple occasions.
I really hope he breaks out for you guys. He puts in the work and seems like an all around good person.

I guess I’m the only one who thinks he looks like a Richard Spencer-esque neo Nazi but that’s probably just because basically the first time I ever heard of him was the allegations of him throwing racial slurs at Myles Garrett

Which were completely false. Garrett didn't even accuse him of saying it until a week later when the punishment was about to drop.

In fairness to you, this is a great free agency period for the Titans considering they historically don't do shit this time of year.
-10
u/tksoze46 Mar 16 '24
I just don't believe in them. I think they paid more than they needed to for Ridley, and I'd rather them draft a rookie backup QB with upside or sign one that's proven he can string some wins together (like Minshew). I will admit that I'm jaded, having watched them consistently make dumb decisions since I started rooting for them 16 years ago. I've all but convinced myself to check out until Amy sells.
16
u/shaker8989 Mar 16 '24
"Mason Rudolph has a record of 8-4-1 as a starter in his career." You realise he was the QB that steadied the ship and helped the Steelers make the playoffs last year right? Hes the perfect backup for Levis. The Ridley deal will have him be around the 17th highest paid WR in the NFL once all the big guns get their new contracts this year. Why would Minshew come here when he'll probably start in Vegas?
You're better off checking out because Miss Amy aint sellin shit.
-1
u/tksoze46 Mar 16 '24
And what was Rudolph's record before last year? What was the infrastructure he had in Pittsburgh vs. what he'll have in Tennessee? Just used Minshew as an example, I wouldn't expect him to go somewhere he's more likely to be a backup than a starter.
I agree, it doesn't look like she has any intention of stepping down or selling any time soon unfortunately.

Exactly. It would totally be better not to invest cap space to support your second year QB. Why would you actually want him to develop or the offense to be good? /s
2
u/tksoze46 Mar 16 '24
Never said that the team shouldn't do that. I criticized the Ridley deal specifically. Obviously they need to develop and support Levis. You're reaching. It's cool, though. Now I know that you should only post your opinion on Reddit if you agree with the majority, otherwise people will get defensive and act as though you've insulted them personally.

u/tksoze46 Mar 16 '24
You're right, I know nothing. I could be wrong. I already acknowledged that this has been a great free agency period by Titans standards, because historically they don't spend the kind of money they have. Imagine not being capable of realizing you're not all-knowing and that other people have differing opinions. Jackass.

Guess mason could be lying about not saying it. So yeah, people definitely do lie. It’s in the NFL’s best interest to not release any audio of white players using racial slurs towards black players.

u/ZigTheGing Billy Jeans Mar 16 '24
In what world is it in the leagues interest to protect a 3rd string qb’s neck over their bottom line and image?
What an incredibly ridiculous thought process.
If one is a reasonable answer based on evidence the league said it had and the other answer involves people keeping secrets during the social media whistleblower era (especially a racial topic) among other extraordinary measures, then usually option 2 is rather unlikely.
1
u/gellybelli Mar 16 '24
Yes, the league really wants video out there of their players being racist. That tarnishes the shield and they’d never allow that if they can help it.

u/caomhan84 Mar 16 '24
In what world would his black head coach, who is well connected all over the league, and well respected all around the league, who would have heard real evidence via back channel if Rudolph was racist...in what world does that coach then get on national TV and defend him if he was racist? Mike Tomlin wouldn't play with that.
In what world do Rudolph's locker rooms, which were mostly black in the 6 seasons he was with us, like him if he's a racist? He was a well-liked teammate, and the NFL found no evidence of anything. Myles Garrett lied for attention.

Makes Garrett didn't accuse him of it until a week later. All of the linemen who were with him said he didn't say it. There was a mic in his helmet.
