HowboutthemCowboys Posted December 30, 2011 Share Posted December 30, 2011 Ben would give anything to play behind a "crappy" line like the Cowboys have. 2011 - Ben sacked 38 times, Romo sacked 30 times (this is with Ben missing some time) 2010 - Ben sacked 32 times, Romo injured but sacked 7 times 2009 - Ben sacked 50 times, Romo sacked 34 times 2008 - Ben sacked 46 times, Romo sacked 20 times 2007 - Ben sacked 47 times, Romo sacked 24 times 2006 - Ben sacked 46 times, Romo sacked 21 times 2005 - Ben sacked 23 times, Bledsoe started for Cowboys (the only season where he had a good O-line) Also, during that time: The Steelers have made the playoffs 5 times, won many playoff games, played in 3 Super Bowls and won two Lombardi trophies. If memory serves, the Cowboys have won ONE playoff game during that time. Now, much of this has nothing to do with your argument about their O-Line THIS year, but, it is still fun to remind you of it. 1. The Pro Bowl is for this year, none of the other years you posted mean anything to this discussion. 2. Everyone that ever watched the Steelers play will tell you that Ben holds the ball wat too long resulting in alot of sacks..can't put them all on the o-line Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everyone that ever watched the Steelers play will also tell you that Ben's mobility also saves the offensive line from several more sacks that most other QB's would give up. In the end, it all evens out, and the offensive line has still been very poor over the last several seasons. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tazinib1 Posted December 31, 2011 Share Posted December 31, 2011 When did voting end? leave off last weeks performance against the Jets and his PFF score falls to 1.7, and if it was closed before the prior week it falls to -0.3 Tillmans thru 15 weeks would have been 5.1 thru 14 weeks 4.5 oh and Webster has given up 4 TDs to Tillman's 1...and Tillman has almost 50, FIFTY more tackles than Webster does don't bring a "billy the kid pop gun to a stat fight" now back to writing Remind me to not get into an IDP stat fight with you when I'm drunk.

gilthorp Posted December 31, 2011 Share Posted December 31, 2011 I still applaud Peanut for making the Pro Bowl. I'm sorry that Taznib the Powerful doesn't think he belongs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
