The Pittsburgh Steelers seem to be in a predicament at quarterback once again. With Russell Wilson suffering a calf injury, Justin Fields could be the starter in Week 1. If he has a good performance, it will likely spark discussion about the quarterback controversy in Pittsburgh. However, CBS Sports analyst John Breech believes that this decision should be an easy one to make for the Steelers.

On a recent episode of CBS Sports HQ, Breech was asked if he believes Fields being the starter is a downgrade or an upgrade.

“I think in this exact situation, putting Justin Fields in is an absolute upgrade,” Breech said.
