Steelers News: Ben Roethlisberger, Carson Wentz, Antonio Brown
The Steelers are coming off of their first home win and are looking to stack their victories with a trip across the state this weekend.
While the focus turns from the Bengals to the Eagles we’ll be busy looking for mentions of your Black & Gold so we’ve got you covered. Here’s your Steelers Morning Huddle for Thursday, Sept. 22nd.
Big Ben Cheeseburger
Ben Roethlisberger responded with a pronunciation lesson for her. I have to be honest. When I heard his name during the 2004 draft, I had the same response she did. Glad it worked out.

Slow down

There is a lot of hype around Eagles quarterback Carson Wentz so far this season. The fact that he hasn’t blown so far has a lot to do with it. Also the fact that the Browns passed him up in the draft is par for the course for them.
I’d have to say that I disagree with Roethlisberger when he told the PPG this week that he expected the Browns to take him in the draft this past march. They instead traded the No. 2 pick to Philadelphia. Not unlike how they had a chance to draft him in 2004 and instead went with tight end Kellen Winslow Jr.
However, the comparisons of Wentz to Roethlisberger have got to stop. It’s been two games. Roethlisberger’s first loss as a rookie starting quarterback was the AFC Championship Game. Two games with no interceptions thrown for a rookie quarterback does not mean he’s the new Big Ben.
Three-pump rule
Antonio Brown said he’s going to observe the three pump rule and not twerk in the endzone anymore this season after being fined for his Week 1 celebration. Dan Hanzus describes how Brown’s celebration was his favorite so far for this season.

Brown is already taking suggestions for his next celebration. If his touchdown celebration upsets you I must ask why do you hate joy?
