Surf’s up. The Pittsburgh Steelers are riding the wave of a 3-0 start, an elite defense, and an offense that’s getting better. So long as QB Justin Fields keeps winning and playing well, it’s hard to see the Steelers going back to Russell Wilson. The conversation is now less about the starter and more about how long Fields can keep the job, even if he does inevitably have a poor performance at some point this year. According to NFL insider Albert Breer, many inside the Steelers’ building have his back.
“I think there’s a tidal wave of support in that building for Justin Fields right now,” Breer said during a recent appearance on FOX Radio’s 2 Pros and a Cup of Joe.
