Steelers to extend Ben before the new league year starts.

[Drink IRON City]

Dittos. Now if Shades gets another extension I'm going to look for a bridge to jump off of.

There are a lot of them to chose from in PITTSBURGH but don't actually jump,........OK??? Go to Pepi's and have an original Roethleberger and chill.

I will judge Ben's will to get another title by the contract size. Not saying he has to get screwed, but less than market value would help. Brady has done that. Ben has made a ton. Should want to Elway out.

You do realize that t*mmy b*y gets under the table money through his TB12 health spa that cheatriots coaches and players MUST use. Rehab / minor injuries / trainer ordered etc.......... BEN will be treated fairly and ben will treat the team fairly, nothing more / nothing nless.

And if you really want to die eat 6 Pepis Roethlisbergers. Much better way to go.

If it also means 4 more years of Tomlin, I'm against it. If there's one thing the Tomlin era has shown me, four more seasons aren't going to change the lack of discipline, lack of preparation, and the endless distractions from the me-first players.

Maybe! I think Tomlin was given the directive from Art II himself to clean this **** up in the locker room. No more embarrassment, drama, unexcused absences of practice and walk through s, etc. Art II cannot be happy by what has developed and wouldn't be surprised if he layed it on the line for Tomlin.

Yeah I've heard that before and maybe some validity but the league might have scrutinized it. Brady and Ben were both about 22milion this year.

Do you work for minimum wage to help your company out? If not, then why would you ask someone else to work for less than they are worth, especially for a team in total disarray. What Ben gets paid has squat to do with his desire to get another title. He could retire today and his family will never hurt for money again. The fact that he is willing to come back shows me he wants to win another SB.

 

[SteelerSask2]

If they want to trade AB what if they have Ben 20 guarenteed 1 million next year and 19 in 2020. He gets 20 million for next year and if they dont retain him he still got paid. That would save 9 or 10 on the cap to make the 21 go away.

I'm pretty sure t*mmy b*y's cap hit is 15mil as he didn't hit any of his incentive pay bonus'. The league hasn't done squat **** to scrutinizing anything CHEATRIOTS . The league spends more time "random drug testing" Bozwell than scrutinizing the cheaters.

I dont know the cap site said his cap hit was 22 million.

Guaranteed money must be equally spread through the length of the contract, IIRC

It would be. 10 per year. But signing bonus is paid up front so essentially he gets 20 million in his jeans next year regardless of what happens in 2020. On the books it would be 10 next year and 30 in 2020. Just not sure because he is already on for 6 guaranteed in 2019. Not sure how that factors in.

So you're saying pay Ben 10 million a year??? Hell paying him 30 million a year would be a steal. Ben is seriously on top of his game, and I bet you could pin about 8-10 of this years picks on the receivers.

Gotchyaz but he had like several incentive bonus' that he didn't hit so nI'm not sure if that was counted or not. Either way the AZZhats are finding ways to circumvent cap money under the table through TB12

ANYBODY who doesn't think BEN is worth every penny he gets is ******* delusional. How many INTERCEPTIONS / deflected or otherwise were NOT his fault???? Passing Tidle anyone???? Glue to hold Tomlin's crappiness together and cover it up???????

The Wheeler is the one to try. I like the Roeth too.

LMAO, Ben was like the 13th highest aid QB this year and 11th last year, that's great value for us, and now you want him to take less? AB is the highest paid wr, they tried to make Bell the highest paid RB, and those two are ******* ********, but Ben should not ask for alot? He won't be the highest paid QB, but he's worth what they end up giving him.
By the way Mrs Brady's husband Giselle makes like 50+ million a year too.

Art can lay it on the line all he wants but the issues aren't just the locker room - its lack of preparation, lack of focus, and just general incompetence. No amount of pep speeches or ultimatums can fix that.

This makes me laugh! Dipshits like LaCanfora are the ones “guessing” and putting reports out there.

GET RID OF BEN!
Too many problems with this guy. Holds everybody but himself accountable, sexual assault allegations, takes too many sacks, throws teammates under bus, not as good as Dobbs, drama queen, throws teammates under bus, thinks he runs the team, teammates hate him, throws teammates under bus, probably voted for Trump, racist, etc.
We don't need this cancer on our team, and to add to all of his problems, he constantly throws teammates under the bus.
GTFOH


Really though, I'm stoked he's on board for awhile longer!

 

[Steel Ballin]

The longer Ben stays the longer Tomlin stays. Just sayin.

I guess if the choice is both stay or both leave, I'm keeping both. Ben has done a pretty decent job of covering Tomlins ***.

 

[Skott]

Let Ben play 2 more years and then draft Trevor Lawrence and let the long hair phenomenon dance magic.

Okay, that was both high emotion-enducing at first, and funny as hell.

You keep a HOF QB who is showing no signs of slowing down as long as you can. He needs to limit the INTs. Otherwise, no-brainer extending your franchise.
