‘I’m Just As Confident With Either Guy:’ Roethlisberger Says Pickett And Trubisky Give Steelers Same Chance To Win

Sitting at 5-8 heading into a Week 15 matchup against the Carolina Panthers, the Pittsburgh Steelers need to win out and probably get some help if they want to sneak into the playoff field. Heading into a must-win game, the Steelers are banged up, with rookie quarterback Kenny Pickett exiting the team’s Week 14 loss against the Baltimore Ravens with a concussion, leaving his status for Week 15 murky. Even if Pickett can’t play though, former Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger’s opinion on the game doesn’t change. On episode 16 of his Footbahlin’ podcast, Roethlisberger said he’s just as confident with Mitch Trubisky at quarterback as he is with Pickett.
