Bombs Away Posted September 26, 2005 Share Posted September 26, 2005 Ben had a nice 1st half, but he was part of the reason the Steelers lost today. He couldn't hit anyone in the 2nd half. Additionally, they abandoned the run way too quickly. Ben, was quickly looking at getting out of the pocket before looking downfield. Between the play calling and Ben they gave NE every opportunity they could to give the game, and sure enough they were successful. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Pats D-line is pretty good, and big Ben impressed me by shaking off a couple of rushers, moving out of the pocket, and making a couple of good plays.

jgcoach Posted September 26, 2005 Share Posted September 26, 2005 The guy is a second year Q/B that throws as many times during a game as a high school q/b. He's expected to do more because of the hype surrounding him from the success the team had last year. Without a running game to dominate the game for him he'll take some lumps as do most all new q/bs. I can give the guy some slack for that reason alone, if some could accept the fact he's not super q/b. He'll do fine and progress as well as many others, it'll take some time.

TecmoBeast Posted September 26, 2005 Share Posted September 26, 2005 just a close game that went down to the wire. Roethlisberger seemed pretty off with the pressure being applied. But when the time came, he manufactured an ugly drive that tied it. Brady just picked apart that tired PIT defense in the end... they looked pretty gased to me. Roeth kept going 3 n out.
