A Letter From the Editor: At some point the Steelers are going to have to be aggressive

The Pittsburgh Steelers find themselves in quite the conundrum.

Coming off a 9-7-1 season, they say goodbye to their veteran quarterback, and usher the post-Ben Roethlisberger era to Pittsburgh. Who this quarterback will be is anyone’s guess, but I can tell you one thing — at some point the Steelers are going to need to be aggressive in some way to find their next franchise quarterback.

Some fans proclaim from the mountain tops how the Steelers should tank a season to get a high enough draft pick to select a franchise quarterback. What people don’t remember is how in 2003 the team didn’t tank, they just were a team meandering their way throughout a season with a below average quarterback, sorry Tommy Maddox.
