It still feels strange needing to discuss who the Steelers next QB will be after nearly two decades of Ben Roethlisberger. Nothing lasts forever though, and doing this project has helped me both as a fan and an analyst get excited for the future. Whether Ben hangs it up after this season or next, it is time to look forward and get ready for a new era of Steelers football.
