OAKMONT, PA — Rudolph with your passes so bold, won't you guide us to the Super Bowl?

The Oakmont Bakery seems confident that Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Mason Rudolph can do that. The former third-string quarterback, who will start in the team's wild card playoff game Sunday against the Buffalo Bills, now has his own cupcakes at the bakery.

And, of course, they have an intentional tie to "Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer."
