Ben Roethlisberger Strongly Disagrees With Steelers’ Latest Apparent QB Change…..
Ben Roethlisberger, the former Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback, has expressed strong disagreement with the team’s decision to start Russell Wilson over Justin Fields. Roethlisberger thinks Fields should remain the starting quarterback, even with Wilson’s return from a calf injury ¹. He believes Fields’ unique footwork and ability to extend plays with his running skills are valuable assets to the team ¹.
Roethlisberger’s comments came after the Steelers’ 4-2 start with Fields as the starter. He emphasized that Fields is playing well enough to keep his spot, even if he has a bad game ¹. However, it’s worth noting that Coach Mike Tomlin hasn’t officially announced the starting quarterback for Sunday’s game against the New York Jets, but Wilson has been taking first-team reps this week ¹.
This development has sparked debate among Steelers fans and analysts, with some agreeing with Roethlisberger’s assessment and others arguing that Wilson’s experience and pocket presence make him the better choice. What do you think – should the Steelers stick with Fields or go with Wilson?
