I'm skeptical we've really changed the culture in these parts if this happens.
Their franchise QB was never the one who carried their team. He arguably wasn't particularly important at all.
The first 10 years of his career, the Steelers missed the playoffs every single time they didn't have a top-3 scoring defense.
1st
3rd
11th (missed playoffs)
2nd
1st
12th (missed playoffs)
1st
1st
6th (missed playoffs)
14th (missed playoffs)
Then over his final 8 years when they found a way to make the playoffs without a top-3 scoring defense, they went 3-6 in the postseason.
