LPGA Tour Announces Record-Breaking 2024 Schedule Instead, he’s been compared to some of the worst quarterbacks in the league and is blamed for all that is wrong with the 2021 Steelers.ĭefensive captain and 11-year vet Cam Heyward, ever active on social media, has seen, heard and read what has been said about Roethlisberger and it has been baffling to him. ![]() Instead, he looked like a quarterback with a strong arm and a positive attitude who will do whatever it takes (yes, getting under center) to get that elusive third Super Bowl ring, which would put him in the same category as Terry Bradshaw, Joe Montana, Tom Brady and Troy Aikman as the only quarterbacks with at least three rings.
