And, as painful as last night was... Something (kinda) cool.

Ben Roethlisberger was the only QB in history to have three 500 yard games. That's a record that has stood the entirety of the history of the NFL.

Until last night, when it was broken by... Ben Roethlisberger. The only QB in history to have four 500 yard games.

In a terrible, utterly garbage losing effort. Sucks to see that the last 10+ years of his career have been wasted with mediocrity.

Yep. Last 10 seasons, 0 Super Bowl appearances, 3-6 in the playoffs.

It is zero surprise that Tomlin started out 5-2 in the playoffs with the core of the team Cowher players (Ben, Ward, Parker, Holmes, Miller, Farrior, Harrison, Polamalu, Smith, Kiesel, Taylor, Townsend) and now that the team has been basically his and his alone the past 10 years (other than a HOF quarterback, of course), the team either misses the playoffs or gets bounced early by a dramatically inferior roster.

Ya, and we all know how ****** all that is. And yes, those big yard games all game in garbage time, but still - No QB has more than 2, I believe and Ben has 4. It's still impressive. Just one more thing to be impressed with Roethlisberger about.
