The signing won't be official until the official opening of free agency on March 16. Tom Brady will lose his standout starting right guard to Joe Burrow and the Bengals, who have plenty of cap space and are expected to make massive upgrades to their shoddy offensive line. Cincinnati's offensive line was graded by Pro Football Focus as the league's eighth worst pass blocking unit in 2021. Burrow was und near-constant duress, setting a record for most sacks taken in a season.


Bengals go Cappa over Schreff…big L for Schreff

Okay .. Steelers are considered by most as a very stable highly productive front office and respected by most … they just signed trubisky and most Commanders fans thought he was horrible and wanted nothing to do with him .. it tells me several things .. The Steelers just like us realize there is NO instant starter in this years draft .. only project types . So I wonder if Steelers fans will hammer there team like we hammer our team ( I know there are a few of us that Are ok with the Wentz signing) .. does anyone out there think Trubisky will be better than Wentz .. I think Pittsburg would have taken Wentz if we had not ( the only negative I see with Wentz is his cost ..

Remember, the Steelers and Browns were in on the Wentz trade, they were interested in getting him as well.

Trubisky looks to be the fall back option for the Steelers, but I bet they will look at QB as well in the draft.

It's hard to figure out what all these teams are thinking - we can only speculate. My thoughts are that the Steelers' signing of MT, in a way, validates the Commanders' pursuit of him before the trade deadline. There's a couple schools of thought as to whether he can be a productive QB in this league, but I don't think the Steelers are signing him to be anything other than their starter. We'll have to wait and see what the contract details are.

As I said before, I would have been fine bringing MT here. He may have been cheaper than Wentz, but I'm not sure he would have produced better results. Time will tell on all of that - the $$ and the production.

No way Steelers fans react like the fans on this board though... Can't really replace Big Ben, but with what's out there, MT is probably their best option at this point. Wonder if they were in on Wentz? Seems like they were, but I can't remember.

I'd rather have Trubisky and the picks than Wentz w/o the picks.

I think Mitch and Wentz will probably play pretty similar ball. Both will be up and down. Neither will most likely outshine the other.
