Someone said to me Sunday after the Steelers lost to the Patriots that if I wanted to really create a buzz, I should "write a column that the Steelers should bring back Ben Roethlisberger."
I laughed and then said, "I just might do that," even though I've spent the better part of the three years arguing the Steelers stayed with Roethlisberger too long and to the detriment of their rebuilding efforts.
The idea of the Steelers bringing Roethlisberger back is silly, but it isn't that much sillier than the idea of benching Mitch Trubisky in favor of Kenny Pickett after just two games. No disrespect to my good friend and colleague Joe Starkey and everyone else calling for Pickett, but you have lost your minds and aren't thinking this through.
