    What about the 3 road playoffs game when Ben had a passing rating of 125?

    You need to be in the super bowl if you want to win the super bowl and winning a road playoffs game is very good....The steelers have won 3 that year

    I can make a argument that Ben deserved the SB mvp in 2008 and John Stallworth was the true MVP in the super bowl vs rams.Bradshaw had 3 interceptions vs rams....

    I could said that the steelers win the super bowl 1974 despite Bradshaw was hot garbabge in the regular season.....I mean he start the first 6 games as backup,take the starting job after but he has been benched like 3 games later again.

    Without a super human effort from Franco and the defense,the steelers would not make the playoffs that year because Bradshaw was just horrible and they won several games despite of him and they won like 0 game because of him

    Thank god he was much better after that year

    Imagine if Ben would have a offensive mind as head coach like Sean Payton,Andy Reid or Kyle Shanahan in his career.....

    We saw how good Bradshaw was in the 1976 playoff game against the Raiders without Franco or Rocky. We got blown out and he was 14-35 for 176 yards and a pick.

    You do know that there is a difference between tremendous talent, and HOF talent correct??
    Also Bradshaw had 10 HOF, and tremendous talent he played with most if his career....it wasn't 10 HOFers, and the rest a suck a$$ team.
    Also ....incase You didn't know Bradshaw, and Ben scored the exact same amount of tds in there 1st SB....so if Ben won in spite of himself , so did Bradshaw.
    So sorry boys.

    So tell me the many differences in scoring that the Bradshaw, and Ben had in both their 1st SBs, because they both only scored a td apiece, and one did it as 1st full time starter, and the other as His 4th, or 5th season , but hey makes no difference correct??
    Also how does that rating work, because I know that Trubisky had a higher rating than Ben's in both their last two years here....Yet Trubisky had 2-5 record, and 8tds,and 10 ints, while Ben had over 50 tds, and 20 ints, and a winning record.....so tell me how this so called rating actually works???? Anyone, someone???
    I mean people like to use it when it serves their purpose, but when I ask these questions, they can't answer.

    Just curious, who are the 10 HOFers TB played with? Google says 7: Mel Blount, Jack Ham, Franco Harris, John Henry Johnson, Jack Lambert, Chuck Noll, and Donnie Shell. Obviously one was the coach but who are the other 3? BTW, this would be a great trivia question.

    That is why it is a mistake to trust what AI gives you. I believe the correct number is nine players and one coach.

    John Henry Johnson played with Bobby Layne, for crying out loud. C’mon, we’re supposed to be knowledgeable steeler fans here

    And why are we trying minimize what Terry did? As the Qb he was the main driver of that dynasty offense. He and the offense kept our HOF defense off the field. We lose Super Bowls 13, 14 and probably 10 also, if we even get there, without TB

    Admittedly, it was lazy on my part to Google it. I knew it wasn't completely correct, which is why I posted the search result here and asked the question. Again, I didn't feel like researching when chances were very high that somebody here would know off the top of their head. None of this is about minimizing TB's legacy and questioning someone's fandom is so Bush league, man. I really didn't think it needed an explanation but that's what I get for assuming. Couple of y'all might want to consider trying decaf in the morning.

    Same with me when I write it. I'm a Huge fan of Bradshaw , hell His was the first jersey I owned , and still have the raggedy old thing that will not fit.
    When I say what I say it's not to minimize, but to make the people that down Ben to realize that Ben, and many , many ,many Qb never had that, or ever will have that type of team with them.
    As I said before I can't think of one Qb that has played for most of their career with that many HOF players, and a HOF HC.

    Not questioning your fandom, just trying to shed some light on the Steelers pre Noll history. Its not only pre Noll but pre Dan Rooney as well. I hope were not going back to those times
