Ben Roethlisberger just had his 44th game winning drive (5th all-time) and 33rd 4th quarter comeback (tied 5th all-time) -- passing John Elway and tying Dan Marino respectively.

Win # - 151 (5th all-time).

TD pass number - 378 (8th all-time)

and if he holds an average of 20 completions per game and 204 yards passing, he'll top 5000 completions and 60000 yards milestones.

You know - accomplishments that would put him in the company of only 5 players ever.

But Lamar won an MVP because he's electric..... until he plays against someone good.

I wonder if they will throw him under the bus tomorrow for having 4 turnovers and blowing a lead the way that they did last week on Ben
 
Lamar Jackson has thrown 5 interceptions in his last two games against the Steelers, and it would have been 6 if Haden gets a better break on that ball.

And there was Harbaugh, standing on the sidelines with a deer in the headlights look after every INT.

oh get over it..Ben is obviously just a game manager

Yeah, well I can ***** about Minkah not making any plays -- just forget about defending the final pass.
 
Ben's so underappreciated he can't even get any love in his own thread.

Kidding guys, I know how it goes.

To be fair, he only lost 2 of them.

But that 3 TD to 5 INT ratio - sacked 9 times, with that whopping 184 yards per game and passer rating of 55.4 over those two games, that's electric! Where's the MVP ballot, can I get a mail-in?

perfect timing on that play

And Minkah's forcing Lamar's 2nd fumble doesn't count because he already came from across the field to stop him short of the 1st down with less than 2 minutes left.

He shouldn't get too much credit for stopping two drives.

no credit at all....
 
Greatest QB in Steelers history. Greatest QB in the history of the AFC Central / North. Easily and by far. I don't think he's ever been TEAM MVP, even though, in reality, he always is.

Imagine how many 4th quarter comeback wins he'd have if the defense could have held the lead? In how many of those comeback wins did he have to do it twice in one game? I'm guessing he should be near 60.
 
Not bad for having a shot arm.
 
All the bandwagon haters fans can **** off!
Since the app isn't working I've been reading Twitter because this is to hard on the phone, but the people on Twitter were already blaming Ben for the loss, saying games over, Bens done. **** bag fans

You mean short arm...... mine is 2mm shorter and they only had to sew back one tendon
Ben had 3 done .....so I am guessing 6mm 1/4" south of the border:disillusionment:

No a few **** fans think his arm is shot.
 
Our team sucks.
Ben sucks.
Tomlin sucks
Randy sucks.
Mincah sucks.
Haden sucks

(probably forgetting a few)

Only really good guy this year is Boz.

Come on man.

Ben didn't blow a lead last week.
 
This is the diffence between Ben and Lamar. Ben was down on the road, and took his team down the field, in hostile territory to go up by 4.

Lamar had 4th and 2, ran and fumbles short of the line to gain. FSF excellent post! This play was ruled a fumble and recovery by Spilly, so it wasn't a turnover on downs.

Great game, you have the student vs the master, and the master will be better than the sutdent ever willl. LJ is a flash in the pan he's their Kordell, he'll be good every other year for like 6 years then die off. He is a terrible passer.

I seriously doubt that he will last that long
 
Lamar Jackson is a better version of Kordell
Ben is a guy who played his first four seasons as a qb in a run first offense and a stretch in the middle with no oline and is going to finish his career as one of the most prolific passers and winners ever...

LJ will follow the path of every One read wonder Run First QB who isnt a true Pocket passer... eventually the team or the qb himself will try to make him learn the pocket passing game and it will be like a second rookie season all over then he will sink into mediocrity...
