There’s been a lot of negativity surrounding the Pittsburgh Steelers’ quarterback situation and Russell Wilson in the national media, but former NFL head coach and current ESPN analyst Jeff Saturday isn’t concerned. Saturday said that the Steelers will be fine with Wilson as long as he protects the ball.
“They don’t have to win games offensively. They can win defensively. They just have to protect themselves offensively, and I think that’s what they’re expecting from Russell Wilson. Run the ball, be effective, have [George] Pickens make some big plays, stretch the ball downfield somewhat, but understand defense is gonna win them a championship if they have any aspirations of doing that,” Saturday said on Get Up Wednesday morning.
