Former Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Joe Hayden stirred up talk this week about his old team's quarterback woes. He flat out said, Shadour Sanders, the Colorado star and son of Deon, looks like a stronger option right now than what the Steelers have under center. The Steelers are eyeing several names to sort this out, like Rookie Will Howard, who's yet to prove himself in the pros, veteran Mason Rudolph, or even, a possible comeback from Aaron Rodgers. Hayden pointed out how crucial a solid quarterback is in today's league. Without one, teams often end up middling around with no real shot at the top. Hayden even admitted he likes to cleave and browns his quarterback situation a bit more than Pittsburgh's at the moment. That said, Sanders hasn't hit the NFL yet either, so it's early to crown him. Still, Hayden's core message rings true, and the Steelers clearly see the problem too. Expect those quarterback questions to keep coming until Pittsburgh locks down a reliable answer.
