PITTSBURGH
Sometime soon, Ben Roethlisberger will meet his new offensive coordinator. That may happen as early as today.
When they do sit down face to face for the first time, it promises to be interesting to say the least.
It’s well documented that the Steelers’ star quarterback is disappointed with the change from Bruce Arians to Todd Haley.
Too bad.
Arians is gone. Haley is here. It’s time to move on.
As a ninth-year pro whose three Super Bowl appearances put him in the upper echelon of NFL QBs, Roethlisberger should be mature enough to handle the transition. If indeed he is the leader he claims to be, he should embrace Haley’s plan and go with it.
It’s well documented that Roethlisberger and Arians had a solid working relationship and a good friendship away from football. Roethlisberger may never become close friends with Haley, but it’s up to him to make sure there’s a positive connection on the job.
Haley, who was fired 13 games into his third season as head coach in Kansas City, comes to Pittsburgh with the reputation as a head-strong guy who’s not afraid to yell at players if need be.
None of the Steelers, not even Roethlisberger, should feel threatened by that.
