The mark of a good gunslinger at the quarterback position is to have a short memory and never be afraid to make any throw.
Former Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback and future Hall of Famer Ben Roethlisberger certainly had those qualities in abundance, at least according to former backup quarterback Bruce Gradkowski, who had an up close and in person look at Roethlisberger for one season in 2014.
Appearing on 93.7 The Fan’s PM Show with co-hosts Andrew Fillipponi and Chris Mueller, Gradkowski — who is currently an offensive coordinator in the XFL for the St. Louis Battlehawks — spoke glowingly of his time with Roethlisberger, and stated he always admired his mental toughness and confidence under center.
