Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger recently turned 34 years old. The team’s championship window with a franchise quarterback who can play up to the level of such would seem to be closing, but their general manager, Kevin Colbert, believes that the former 2004 first-round draft pick still has a few years left of his prime abilities.
After all, just last season, in spite of a litany of injuries, he put up one of the best passing yards per game totals in NFL history, and the pairing between Roethlisberger and Antonio Brown set a historical pace if only they were able to stay together for a full 16-game schedule.
