bushwacked Posted November 19, 2006 Share Posted November 19, 2006 I don't know that this season is necessarily a fair assessment of Roethlisberger I don't think anyone is saying that. If this season was indicative of his ability to play he wouldn't have a job in the NFL. It's the blinded praise, the beckoning of the 2nd coming of some great QB, that blinded homers continue to give him, when everyone else realizes he is a mediocre QB that can manage a game given the proper surrounding cast. Everyone outside of Pittsburgh knows this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Azazello1313 Posted November 19, 2006 Share Posted November 19, 2006 what kind of QB rating does 7 of 15 for 48 yards and 3 picks work out to, anyway? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Menudo Posted November 19, 2006 Share Posted November 19, 2006 I'll tell you one thing, the int's might not have been his fault, but, he does look pretty bad today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Menudo Posted November 19, 2006 Share Posted November 19, 2006 I'll tell you one thing, the int's might not have been his fault, but, he does look pretty bad today. ...and now he makes a phenomenal play where he rolls out of trouble and throws across his body on the money for a TD. This year, his inconsistency has been amazing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mediocre is mediocre. ...and a obsessed crybaby is still an obsessed crybaby.... Seriously, as a relative outsider looking in on these boards, this guy's obsession with you is very odd. Yes it really is and I often wonder about it. I have meet Bush and I think he is a decent guy and all but his obsession with Menudo is mind boggling to say the least. I really must have missed something. Edited November 19, 2006 by Menudo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Menudo Posted November 19, 2006 Share Posted November 19, 2006 (edited) I'm sure it will be ignored by many, but, after a poor start, Ben Roethlisberger played a phenomenal 2nd half of fooball, throwing for close to 250 and 2 TD's in the 2nd half. It was also a gutsy effort to lead his team to the comeback victory on the road. However, I'm sure he was just 'managing' the team down the field. Hey Bier, Not a team leader - he was an incredible leader in that 2nd half Can't succeed when the team is behind - 250 yards, 2 TD's to bring the Steelers back to victory Only excels when the running game and defense do well - No running game to speak of in the 2nd half.

"can we judge him by 1 game?" "rolleye: how about the super bowl then...... i dunno...i saw a lot of open receivers, how about you?

Carry on. there was a play where he did a nice job avoiding a sack.... the d lineman let up and he completed a nice pass.... that, and the trip in the indy game last year are the best plays i've seen from him.

bushwacked Posted November 19, 2006 Share Posted November 19, 2006 I wathced the 2nd half and Ben looked good. Completely different than his first half stat line. And all of you Big Ben/Menudo obsessers should stop picking on him or Skippy may have to bring out the whomping schtick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bushwacked Posted November 19, 2006 Share Posted November 19, 2006 Wait, let me read it again. I've watched him play quite a bit so it's bound to happen sometime. Now we can all live in harmony until Ben plays crappy again and then you can pretend like everyone is obsessed with you and Ben when they mention it.

Menudo Posted November 20, 2006 Share Posted November 20, 2006 Ben Roethlisberger, AKA 'The Game Manager' threw for 229 yards & 2 TD's in the 4th Quarter to get that comeback victory. Thank goodness, he can only manage games and not win them for his team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
