Former Steelers head coach Bill Cowher shared that Tommy Maddox was outraged about the Steelers drafting Ben Roethlisberger in 2004.
"We drafted Ben Roethlisberger and Tommy Maddox comes into my office the next day like, 'You told me we weren't going to draft a quarterback' and he's yelling at me for like 20 minutes. I finally just said. 'Are you done?' Ok now that you're done, let me just speak. You're the starting quarterback, and the fact that you're so bothered that another quarterback is in here makes me think that you shouldn't be the starting quarterback because you can't handle the pressure," Cowher told Jason Garrett on the Coach 2 Coach Podcast

Former New England Patriots wide receiver Julian Edelman gave high praise to Steelers running back Jaylen Warren. Edelman gave the Himmy Award to Warren from Week 8.
"I gotta go with Jaylen Warren in Pittsburgh," Edelman said The Gronk & Jules Show
.
"Shout out to the offensive line, too. We've never seen Pittsburgh have a rusher like this since [Jerome] Bettis. He's the spark plug of that offense. When they get the run game going, it sets up their play-action. Aaron can do more in the passing game when the run is working. 143 yards, a touchdown, and a huge, huge run in that game. I think he's Himmy."
