Potential re-boot quarterbacks who could be the backup answer for the Steelers

This off-season is only a few weeks old, but it has already featured plenty of talk about what the Pittsburgh Steelers need to do at quarterback. Ben Roethlisberger’s recent throwing exhibition was a relief to most fans, but we all know how tenuous the body can be. Big Ben seemed impervious to “the big injury” for most of his career – playing with fractured bones, dislocated joints, damaged tendons and ligaments, and once a nose that was shattered “like cornflakes” (shudder). It’s been easy to assume that he might miss a game or two, but as long as he’s on the team, everything will eventually be okay.
