The news we all expected was made official on Monday when Pittsburgh Steelers head coach Mike Tomlin announced they were going with Mason Rudolph as the starting quarterback this week against the Baltimore Ravens. X (the artist formerly known as Twitter) was abuzz with the news. Here are some of our favorite reactions.
So does this mean I have to root for Mason Rudolph now?

Mason Rudolph has done enough to earn everyone respect. He has handled everything with class and has outplayed every other qb on our roster. He has earned this chance. #SteelersNation

I want Kenny to start, I think he’s not gotten a fair chance to prove himself. Canada, growing pains, poor effort from his teammates all led to iffy play. He also needs this late season experience. But, 100% Mason Rudolph deserves to start, he’s earned the right to continue.
