You want the Steelers to think about a future without Ben Roethlisberger? Dwayne Haskins it is

“When are they going to start thinking about Ben’s replacement?” many fans have been asking since Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger was about 30.

I’ve been trying to tell those fans that Pittsburgh will really begin to think about Roethlisberger’s heir apparent the moment he finally hangs up his cleats, but they just don’t want to believe me.

“They need to groom someone!” When has grooming ever worked? I know what you’re going to retort with: “Aaron Rodgers and Patrick Mahomes say, ‘What’s up?’”

My retort to that is, please. Those guys would have been great if they showed up to work on Day 1 and were named starting quarterbacks for their respective teams.
