There are few relationships in professional sports between two positions that shares a greater bond than that between a quarterback and his wide receivers—especially his number one wide receiver. And when it comes to the Pittsburgh Steelers, the team has never before been blessed with such a combination as Ben Roethlisberger and Antonio Brown.
Roethlisberger, the quarterback, came to the team in the first round of the 2004 NFL Draft. He already won two Super Bowls with the team by the time the Steelers drafted Brown in the sixth round of the 2010 NFL Draft, and they went back to the championship game his rookie season, though he lost.
