Winning Percentage
As of today, Ben Roethlisberger has done about 95% of the work getting Tomlin to a 145-78-1 record.

Winning Seasons
One well-known fact about Ben Roethlisberger is that he's never had a losing season. That makes Mike Tomlin look practically competent.

Super Bowl Legacy
It only took Ben Roethlisberger two seasons to win a championship with Bill Cowher. Then he did it again within 2 seasons of being saddled with Mike Tomlin!

(Just havin' some fun. Don't get all grumpity.)

It depends, if you are only wearing Depends than I's say your immeadiate future is questionable. Now if you are wearing a Bee suit & hood then you will be much happier in your immeadiate future.

Wig everybody always brings up this non- losing season record of Mike Tomlin. Mike Tomlin has never had a losing season. In doing so they are being very disrespective towards BEN ROETHLISBERGER. He is the HUGE reason of all those NON-losing seasons Y-E-T never mentioned or respected for it.

Ben is probably on the top of the stack of players not given their due respect. It always baffles me how far down he is in the polls of quality players. The man is far and away the best quarterback this team has seen - far better than our first-ballot hall of fame quarterback. Not only that, he has been able to redefine himself from a gunslinger into a quarterback that is great at reading defenses.

How many here, advid STEELERS fans, realize that BEN ROETHLISBERGER has never had a losing season in his entire career?

Never mentioned, never acknowledged, blind spot.

IMO too much love has been given Ben for these non losing seasons. So where did he go come playoff time?

Those that say we had too much talent to not to have won more in the playoffs will blame Tomlin.

In other words Ben is to be given credit for the non losing seasons, but lets blame our dismal playoff record on Tomlin.

I think it's a blessing in disguise TBH because it fuels Ben's competitive fire and simultaneously makes him work harder.

Ya big Nancy. Do it again with Habanero peppers. Then you'll find the jalapeno burn nothing more than a pleasant "tickle".

That's fair enough. However I think any deep statistical dives into playoff failures would reflect much more poorly overall on Tomlin than on Ben.

Look, maybe you have experience with your dick burning but I do not. I prefer to keep the big guy burn free. 😂

34 td’s — 28 ints in playoffs is a pretty deep stat in career playoff games. I think they have both choked in the playoffs. They have also had great playoff games. A long , long time ago.

Partly explained by the fact that in the playoffs you will face good teams. In the regular season we have the Browns and Bengals in our division so until last season that was 3-4 wins a year guaranteed.

I think the SB winning drive against the Cardinals gave Ben a confidence that is risk and reward.

He learned to just go for it. Worked out well in that game. One of the best moments for me, but may have created a monster!
