    The only positive I can pull from this is maybe he won't look like **** next week now.

    Dude, stop. I'm pretty sure Bell could have played QB better, today.

    One shiny moment in a absolute pitiful performance.

    Actually, I was too hasty. I agree - Bench Ben, go 5-11, and once we realize what a galloping fraud Mike Tomlin is, fire the **** out of him.

    I just can't believe you all quit on Ben so fast and after he's given so much
    He's given probably 10-15 years of his life after football to the steelers in order to strap the gear on and go at prob less than 70 percent
    And how many times has he done it?
    You couldn't put all the legends together and they have played more games hurt than Big Ben has.
    And it's just crazy to say anyone on this team could have played better at qb than Big Ben today. It's just not true.

    I know that you have no way of knowing any of this. I just want to say if you disagree with something I said there is a disagree icon you can click on. I also realize you are new here and I welcome any debate you want to have but I will end with this.

    your comment is very offensive to me. I had a close friend do that. just please choose your words in the future more carefully. you never know how it will be received

    Agree, pulling your franchise QB is a slippery proposition during a game when he is struggling. I'm more po at the coaches for not giving him plays to work with when struggling like short quick passes to Ely and tight ends instead of keep running into a brick wall. I wish we would of given up on trying to run Bell up the middle against 8 man box.....worst play calling I've seen in a long time.

    I will agree with you. when I started the post I was mostly referring to bens body language. he just didn't look right. and to the play calling. when did he not have the ability to call the game? I have always thought he could call his own stuff in the no huddle? am I wrong

    You should call it a night. You say one more offensive thing to anyone and you can spread your hate on another board.

    Swallow a shot gun? What the hell is wrong with you?

    I shouldn't have to say this, but nonsense like that isn't acceptable here.

    My goodness guys. I understand Ben had a bad game.


    However... he generally does have bad days coming back from an injury; now 2-5 in those seven games.



    That being said, no amount of verbal exchanges, asinine ones at that, is going to change any of that. All we can do, as fans, is hope that Ben and the team can correct their mistakes for their next game.

    I haven't quit on Ben. No way, no how. Mr. Moustache isn't anywhere near the QB Ben is. Not. even. close.

    So very sorry for your loss, and for that board member's insensitivity.

    This game today is a prime example of why I hate fantasy so bad. Ben played terrible but the stat sheet won't necessarily reflect that and I will probably get told tomorrow how "Ben actually had a good game..." and all that. No. No he didn't. I'm probably the biggest Ben fan around here but he played terrible. The offense played terrible. Special teams looked terrible. The playcalling was terrible. Everything about today was terrible. Period. Not sure Landry would have been a difference maker though. I'd say the difference maker really would be showing up and acting like you're not a moron. Let's just start there and see how that works out.
