In Replacing Ben Roethlisberger, Mitch Trubisky With Big Shoes To Fill

The current quarterback situation in Green Bay is what all Steeler fans can only hope comes to fruition, and that’s the seamless transition they made from one Hall of Fame quarterback to another. They went from gunslinger Brett Favre to one of the highest-rated passers in league history in Aaron Rodgers, whom they scooped from a freefall in the 2005 draft. Rodgers sat for several seasons behind Favre, learning from one of the best the game has ever seen and biding his time. Spanning the careers of both is two Super Bowl titles and seven MVP Awards, perhaps more by the time Rodgers’ career is final.
