    Apparently, you missed a big chunk of last season. You should go back and watch it. Those games were fun.

    Good point

    I have no faith in Ben. I have no more faith in either of the other two.

    So, you believe the Raiders have a shot at the AFC Championship, but a loss to them is so horrible that the Steelers should give up. Your attempts at logic are ...interesting.

    Nobody is trading for Roethlisberger's contract, not for a guy who is average at best and in his final season.

    Same logic as when at draft time people wonder why we don’t just move up in the first round.

    This is on the owner. Ben should not be here but Deuce wanted him so we're stuck watching this mess. He's still the best QB on the roster, which is rather frightening. It's gonna be a rough year and then he's finally gone leaving dead money behind.

    Mason doesn't like being sacked, probably because the golf cart is 50-50.

    By the looks of our pass protection and play calling I suspect we will see Mason soon. Ben has been taking some shots .... many of which I cannot believe were not flagged. Apparently hitting the QB is back in the NFL. I can't wait to see how Tom Brady handles shots like that. Oh wait, there's different rules for everyone not named Ben.

    maybe.

    we won't get any more with Ben, and he is not a future at all beyond today. Time to turn the page, but I wanted that page turned after January. Rooney keeps throwing out good $$ after bad. Unable to come to grips with our reality.

    The song from Music Man sums it up:

    Well, ya got trouble, my friend, right here
    I say trouble right here in Pittsburgh City.

    Best of the worst I am afraid. At least Big Ben is playing as such anyways. Pushing the ball down the field has a lot less to do with the deep passes but the intermediate ones as well; something he has not done since Week 11 of 2020. Until he does, well...

    Remember that ...He just got paid ....the cap hit hasn't happened yet. Now wait till the need 2 resign players. Then Remember what You said.
    It's funny How stats, and regular season wins count for every Qb , but Ben in some fans eyes.

    Helmet to helmet hits are allowed on the qb this year. You just aren’t allowed to taunt the quarterback

    I don't believe either Rudolph or Haskins are a better option than Ben when the team is sitting at 1-1. If they are 2-7 or 3-6, then why not see what you have? However, I think we may very well see Rudolph and possibly Haskins for more games than we think if this team can't get the run game going and the o-line can't offer better pass protection. Ben was hit 10 times yesterday. No way he's going to play 17 games taking that kind of abuse at age 39.
