bushwacked Posted December 7, 2006 Share Posted December 7, 2006 Ben is leading the NFL with 20 int's and played 1 game less than most QB's. Not all int's from any qb are bad throws. Everyone throws int's on tipped balls and have wr's run the wrong route...I don't believe he threw 12 int's that were'nt his fault. That's absurd. And I live where I get the Steeler's games every week so I'm not just looking at the stat line.... Pittsburgh fans blame Ben's O-line and his WR's for him not wearing a helmet while biking.

Ursa Majoris Posted December 8, 2006 Share Posted December 8, 2006 111 yards on 17 carries and it's not halftime yet. FWP does have a lost fumble though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chavez Posted December 8, 2006 Share Posted December 8, 2006 He will end the season breaking the record for the most carries by a Steeler back You're predicting him to get 159 carries over the last 4 games? (hint - record for carries in a season by a Steelers back is 390 by Barry Foster in '92, Parker had 232 going into tonight) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He seems to have a great feel for hitting the hole and finding the path of least resistance for additional yards. Hopefully Cowher doen't feel the need to put a big back on the field for goal line situations in the future. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was an article talking about his carries. They must have been talking about recent history. Sorry for the mis-information.......

Menudo Posted December 8, 2006 Share Posted December 8, 2006 Ben Roethlisberger, TD vulturing bastage. Yep, got Willie Parker playing in my main league, and though I won't comlain, I'd love a TD at some point tonight....... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ursa Majoris Posted December 8, 2006 Share Posted December 8, 2006 Yep, got Willie Parker playing in my main league, and though I won't comlain, I'd love a TD at some point tonight....... I have him going in two. I could have used that TD but the 159 yards so far are looking mighty fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Menudo Posted December 8, 2006 Share Posted December 8, 2006 I have him going in two. I could have used that TD but the 159 yards so far are looking mighty fine. I'm still frustrated that the Steelers don't consistently get him involved in the passing game. He has done well with it when they have given him the chance, and he is built perfect for him. If you can get him in open space, he is extremely dangerous. I think they should throw at least 3 screen passes to him per game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ursa Majoris Posted December 8, 2006 Share Posted December 8, 2006 This is FWPs second 200+ yard game of the season. If they keep him going against a tiring Cleveland D, he could break the NFL single game record tonight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TDFFFreak Posted December 8, 2006 Share Posted December 8, 2006 (edited) NOT what I want to see playing against him in Bling Bling 1st round playoffs. This is going to suck if I lose this week. Edited December 8, 2006 by TDFFFreak Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cre8tiff Posted December 8, 2006 Share Posted December 8, 2006 (edited) Good week for a career game. Glad I'm not playing against him. EDIT: Think I am going to have to call the suicide prevention hot line for the guy in our league that sat him in favor of Kevin Jones.

Perhaps if the Browns score here that will justify continuing to turn him loose. The way it's going, I could see him breaking a really long one before all is said and done.

Well, Anderson killed that drive with the pick. I wouldn't mind more, but he has already had a great game for me in my local tonight.

Your mouth to the coach's ear. FWP has done enough damage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
