Mike Tomlin may not have declared a Week 1 starter following Saturday’s preseason finale, but the division of labor told us everything we needed to know. If it were a real competition, Wilson wouldn’t have come off the field after throwing just two passes in the final chance to evaluate the quarterbacks before the start of the season.
Former NFL head coach Herm Edwards saw enough to make a decision if he were the one in charge.
“Russell Wilson is the starter for me, but I’m not Mike Tomlin,” Edward said via ESPN’s SportsCenter over night.
