The Steelers are clinging to the past, and it’s going to cost them their future. Art Rooney II’s insistence on re-signing Russell Wilson is a recipe for disaster. Wilson is washed up, and he’s not the quarterback who can lead this team to a Super Bowl.
This is a franchise that’s stuck in its ways, and it’s refusing to embrace the future. They had a chance to move on from Wilson and build around the young and talented Justin Fields, but they chose to stick with the aging veteran. This is a mistake that will haunt the Steelers for years to come.
Wilson’s best days are behind him. He’s no longer the dynamic playmaker he once was, and he’s not the leader this team needs. The Steelers are going to be stuck in mediocrity with Wilson at the helm, and they’ll never reach their full potential.
