My point is, people seem to be trying very hard to come up with ways that Ben was great yesterday.
He was not.
Other than the opposing coach, game announcers, ESPN anchors, Mike & Mike in the morning, and all the other talking heads who have repeatedly said that despite Roethlisberger's poor stats he had a great game, everyone seems to agree with you.Ben didn't have his best game, but he was a huge part of that win. If he doesn't make several CLUTCH runs and throws, the Steelers lose that game.
You won't admit it because you're a Steelers/Roethlisberger hater.
It's hard to comment on others' objectivity when you are unable to be objective yourself.
Oh ESPN said he was great? Well then...
Oh Westin said he was bad? Well then...
Hey you want to throw out names like ESPN and Mike and Mike...not me. ESPN is pretty much a sports gossip program and Mike and Mike are the sports equivalent to Regis and Kelly. You should've just stopped at "opposing coach" because he's about the only opinion there that means a thing The funny thing is you say I'm a Ben hater...why?
Because I don't think he's elite?
He is clutch. He is good. And in two weeks he may have his third Super Bowl. I've stated this so many times in this thread.
What bothers me is...in two weeks he could throw 15/30 for 100 yds and 4 INT's/0 TD's and if somehow the Steelers defense mans up and they win the game ....everybody will talk about how Ben has 3 Super Bowls and is a lock for the HOF and one of the best ever.
I've ignored this thread for a while, because we just go in circles. I just popped in because I wanted to see if the same people would give him credit for yesterday's win. And what do you know..they did.
