Former Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Antonio Brown clearly wasn't a fan of Ben Roethlisberger but the team's current number one receiver JuJu Smith-Schuster is. On Saturday afternoon Smith-Schuster posted standing alongside Roethlisberger with the caption “that's my quarterback.”

He also posted the Terrell Owens crying gif saying ” that's my quarterback.” It's clear the Smith-Schuster likes Roethlisberger, but this also feels like he is trying to continue to throw shade at Antonio Brown who has bashed Big Ben all offseason.
The hope is with Brown gone, and Smith-Schuster the face of the wide receiver room, there will be no more drama, and so far that has been the case.
“The chemistry is on point,” Smith-Schuster told the Associated Press on Wednesday. “Everyone is on the same page. Everyone is communicating. There's really no — how do you say? — drama in our locker room.”
Brown did do a lot of talking but there is one thing that Smith-Schuster and the rest of the locker room did learn from him, a work ethic.
“I think everyone picked it up, not only us as receivers but everybody on the team. They all see how AB worked. They seen how he came out here every day and he just ran hard, 100 percent.”
The chemistry that Big Ben and Smith-Schuster is great, but there also needs to be the results on the field this season or it means nothing. The expectations are that Smith-Schuster can fill the big shoes that Brown left when he was traded to the Oakland Raiders.
