Steelers QBs: National media getting Russell Wilson, Justin Fields dynamic wrong?
Listen now
Description
On the Wednesday episode of the North Shore Drive podcast, presented by Mike's Beer Bar, host Christopher Carter welcomes Post-Gazette Steelers insider Brian Batko to break down the team's QB competition between Russell Wilson and Justin Fields. Why does national media perceive the battle to be a 50-50 proposition, when locally it's clear that Wilson has the starting job comfortably heading into training camp? What should we make of Fields' demeanor about his current role as the backup? And is coach Mike Tomlin handling the competition correctly by giving Wilson such a comfortable pole position? Our duo tackles those topics and also ponders Najee Harris' buy-in as he's set to inherit such a large role in Arthur Smith's new offense. Then later, Christopher welcomes Pirates insider Andrew Destin to react to Paul Skenes' latest start against the Cincinnati Reds, as well as a 2-1 loss to the same opponent on Tuesday night. Note: This Steelers segment was meant to be posted Monday, but was not in error. We hope you enjoy it now.
