From the beginning, Ben Roethlisberger's post-retirement podcast has been something different in the world of football punditry because it's honest.
Where TV analysts pull punches to avoid offending individuals and fan bases, the Steelers' future Hall of Fame signal caller has shot from the hip in talking about the NFL and his former team.
That was especially true Sunday night when he welcomed his replacement to the podcast for the first time. In a nearly two-hour conversation, Roethlisberger and Kenny Pickett broke down the latter's rookie season, from getting drafted by the Steelers to replacing Mitch Trubisky at midseason.
