Who is Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger as a person? As a player? As a leader? A lot of people who have never played with him or at least have hardly known him have spent a lot of time trying to answer one or more of these questions this offseason. Of course, some high-profile people who did spend a lot of time with him had pretty definitively negative answers, which is what drove so much of that discussion.
The question that seemed to bother Roethlisberger most was the doubt of his leadership, based on the sparse comments that he has made when given media availability so far this offseason.
