    No .....I don't care what You believe. Anyone that's not to lazy, and don't believe it can look it up.
    Again You are spending 10 pages arguing about one game. Like Ab having 2 games of a hundred yards , and No TDs is way better in 10 games than 11 games. LoL Wow now He's awesome. Dork......Hell it would be even more if I used His rookie year, but Im not. LoL. God get a life.

    This thread is only four pages long and I didn't argue over one game. I argued over you insisting I was wrong when I knew for a fact that I was right.

    You claimed it was 11 games. It is your claim to support. You don't have to copy anything. Just tell us the dates. Here. I'll give you a head start. Here are the 10 I know about, including his rookie season. Just tell us which ones you think are missing.

    2010: Sept. 19, Sept. 26, Oct. 3
    s011: Dec. 24
    2012: Dec. 2
    2015: Oct. 1, Oct. 12, Oct. 18, Oct. 25
    2016: Oct. 23

    Actually, it is seven without his rookie season. Just give us the dates or admit you can't and we can settle this right now.

    There are ~130 game logs to go through, dude. If you already have, then why make everyone else do it?

    I can find these games that Ben didn't play:
    2011: week 16
    2012: weeks 11 & 12 (no AB, either), 13
    2013: none
    2014: none
    2015: weeks 4, 5, 6, 7
    2016: weeks 7 (AB over 100yds), 17 (no AB)
    2017: week 17 (no AB)
    2018: none

    That's 7, excluding AB's rookie year (2010).

    That fits in with what I have. I wonder if STD just looked up games in which Roethlisberger didn't play, but failed to notice that Brown also didn't play in four of them. That would be two games in 2012, one in 2016, and one in 2017. Add that to the seven we both have when 2010 is excluded, that gives us the 11 games STD keeps going on about.

    It reminds me of a short story I used to use in a college class I teach, "A Good Man is Hard to Find" by Flannery O'Connor. It is about this rather selfish grandmother who goes on a road trip with her son, his wife, and their three children. They are driving through Georgia when she spots a dirt road that seems familiar. She manipulates the family into going down the road to see this old house she remembers. They drive down the road for a long time, with the family growing increasingly frustrated. Finally, the son threatens to turn around if they don't find it soon. The grandmother's face turns red as she realizes that the house she was thinking of was down a different dirt road, a road in Tennessee, but refuses to tell her family about her mistake. This leads the entire family into disaster, but she never comes clean.

    I wonder if STD is just too far down that dirt road into nowhere to admit his mistake.

    So now You are saying 7 games...Hmmm :hmm: ....I do believe there are several comments on here of You saying 10 games. LoL. No I checked. Also people just because Ab didn't start a game doesn't mean He didn't play. Same with Ben.

    I'm not making anyone do anything. :shrug: Not only have I looked it up....
    This was widely talked about on many sport shows when Ab left for the Raiders. Now I guess Me, and all the shows could be incorrect. :shrug: Remember....just because AB , or Ben didn't start doesn't mean they didn't play. Also the opposite. I tried dropping this, but no one will let go.

    I have said this all along, that it is 10 games total, but three of those were during his rookie year. Unlike you, my posts have been accurate and consistent.

    Clive gave you the games he has that Brown played and Roethlisberger did not. Give us the dates of the ones you think he is missing. Based on your posts, that should only be four games.

    Actually, I had dropped it and you tried pushing an inaccurate summary of events again. Now I'm not going to let it go until you admit you made it up, admit you made a mistake, or provide the dates for the four games we are missing.

    Clive provided a list that included seven games from 2011 through 2018 in which Brown played but Roethlisberger did not. He also listed four games in which neither of them played. Now you are implying that Brown didn't start, but played in those games. That isn't true either, so either you made a mistake or you are gaslighting us.

    Here is the box score for Week 11 in 2012. Brown did not play a single snap.
    Box score for Week 12 in 2012. Brown did not play a snap.
    Box score for Week 17 in 2016: Brown did not play.
    Box score for Week 17 of the 2017 season: Brown did not play.

    Those are the games Clive listed that Roethlisberger missed, but so did Brown. So much for your implication that someone was mistaking a game he didn't start for a game he didn't play.

    So far we have seven confirmed games from 2011 through 2018 that Brown played and Roethlisberger didn't. You claim there are four more. Give us the dates. (Near as I can tell, they don't exist. The 11 games Clive listed seem to be all of the ones Roethlisberger missed those seasons.)

    Also, to clear up any more of your potential nonsense, this does not include three games Roethlisberger missed in his rookie season, 2010. You already said you aren't including that season. When I mentioned 10 games previously, that did include 2010.

    Winner, and He did it with multiple Qbs. Imagine if He had Ben His whole career.

    Even so called bad Ben was better than any of the Qbs that Ward played with before Ben.

    Ward was a much better guy and a hell of a player, but never among the best in the game at any given time. Still No. 3, at best, among Steelers all-time at the position.

    Now, what is the deal with your false claim of Brown playing 11 games without Roethlisberger. Clearly, that wasn't accurate. So, were you gaslighting? Or did you just make a mistake and you are too embarrassed to admit it?
