    'I'm Sticking With Justin!' Steelers' Ex Ben Roethlisburger

    By Wil Riggs,

    The Pittsburgh Steelers are 3-0 and boast the league’s best defense. ... which has allowed quarterback Justin Fields and the offense to develop and grow together.

    While Fields hasn’t had a big game yet, Steelers’ legend “Big” Ben Roethlisberger feels that it’s coming, and right now, there is no reason to put Russell Wilson in.

    “I like what I’ve seen, I like that he’s getting into it, I like that he’s getting the feel of it,” Roethlisberger said of Fields before this latest win over the Chargers. “If you told me they were 1-1 or 0-2 and these are going on, I’d think they’d have to do something, but again, he’s not turning the ball over, they’re 2-0.

    And now they're 3-0.

    Fields is sustaining drives and not turning the ball over.

    Opposing teams aren’t getting extra possessions, and the Steelers are controlling the clock and dominating on the defensive side of the ball.

    If that doesn’t scream “Steelers Football”, we don’t know what does.

    “Justin’s stats ... are you impressed?” Big Ben asked. “Probably not. You know what I’m impressed with? No turnovers. I’m impressed with efficiency. I thought he ran the ball when he had to, he did some really good things.”
