    Doesn't even make sense....worst ever....yet He scored more points then Cam Newton, and Payton Manning did combined....., and they both had ints, fumbles, and No....I repeat....No TDs.

    LoL...exactly....You know, and I know that doesn't make sense. Kinda like the whole Qb rating that say Pickett has been better this season than Ben was last season.
    Stupid.
    KP....this season ..2 Tds passing, 2 tds rushing...8ints.
    Ben last year...22 tds passing, 1 td rushing, and 10 ints .....yet Pickett has a better QBR.....ridiculous.

    The only other quarterback named Trent that I can think of was Trent Green, whose primary claim to fame was being the guy who blew out his knee in preseason to give Kurt Warner his shot with the Rams.

    Worst ever for a winning QB. Tony Eason for the Patriots against the Bears in 1985 had the worst QB performance as a starter in Super Bowl history. He dropped back to pass 9 times and went 0-6 passing, the other 3 times he was sacked. He was replaced at halftime by Steve Grogan.

    That was the most lopsided SB I can remember until the Broncos/Seahawks SB.
    Wait so Payton Manning had two terrible SB games Broncos/Carolina, and Broncos/Seahawks....wow....not the great Manning who studied harder than any Qb ever (so I've been told), and knows every play ever (so I've been told).LoL

    Hate to break it to you, STD, but Ben was mediocre in Super Bowls at best save for one magical drive that led to the greatest finish in Super Bowl history and salvaged his Super Bowl legacy to a degree. But TERRY BRADSHAW was MONEY in EVERY BIG MOMENT IN EVERY SUPER BOWL HE EVER PLAYED IN. That’s why he IS and WILL ALWAYS BE the greatest quarterback in Steelers history! ;):dancing::yeehaw:

    Yeah....Your memory sucks. Since Bradshaw had the exact amount of Tds as Ben in their 1st SB , but one was a 2nd year player(youngest ever), and the other had been in the league so long they had been benched already.

    Are you denying that TB came up big at the most crucial points of the game in Super Bowls X, XIII, and XIV. If you are, somebody’s memory sucks and it ain’t mine.

    That was a much more run-heavy era. Bradshaw only attempted 14 passes in that game, but he was definitely better than Roethlisberger in Super Bowl XL.

    Their Super Bowl resumes aren't even close. Bradshaw's was vastly superior.

    Don’t forget fumbling, and then avoiding the ball like it was a live hand grenade

    Don’t forget San Francisco 55, Denver 10 one year. Montana vs Elway.

    Liberty is ranked #19 in the country right now without Willis. I don’t know how many of these same players were on the team last season, but I wonder how much merit there is to an argument that he didn’t have much around him. I’ll be seeing them in person tomorrow at UCONN.

    I think possibly the coach Hugh freeze possibly coached Malik up to more than he is.

    I remember.....I also remember Bradshaw played on a team with HOF guys at every level in a non free agency period. I guess that doesn't matter...right. :shrug: I don't know why You people have to compare our greats with one another. I Love both Ben, and Bradshaw. I've had a Bradshaw jersey since I was a wee lad......I bring up Cam, and Paytons SBs, and somebody always has to try , and compare Ben, and Bradshaw. :shrug:

    Again another Guy that can't get over the fact of differences....You do make sure You say oh....different times....., but never say....Well one was in His 2nd year with 2 HOF players, and the other was in His 4th year with a whole team of HOF players....,and they both scored one freaking TD in their 1st SB...... I love them both...You guys can argue the rest....I didn't even bringing this stupid stuff up.

    49ers vs Chargers....the Super Bowl the Steelers were supposed to be in was more lopsided than Bears vs Patriots.

    I have to be honest....because of our loss....I didn't even watch that SB....I just know who won.....I couldn't bring Myself to watch it....that AFC Championship devastated Me. I've told this on Here a hundred times, but I actually threw everyone out of My place after that game....I said get out You bad luck MFers. Also take that bad luck Papa John's pizzas with You. I haven't eaten a Papa John's pizza since. LoL
