The toughest part for Ben Roethlisberger after surgery to repair a torn meniscus in his left knee?

It's too bad Ben didn't have that compete level for the Ryan Tannehills and Carson Wentzes.
LOL, that's it, criticize away. You'll be praying for another QB like Ben to come along in a few years when this team is forced to start another Kordell Stewart/Mark Malone/Bubby Brister, et al. with no relief in sight.
Alot of steeler fans will realize how good of a QB Ben is once his playing days are over like FS76 has stated numerous times. He will be in the HOF someday and, when you see the qb play before Ben is was god awful.
Ugh...Kent Graham?
It's coming...

Exactly. We talk about how Ben doesn't get the proper respect from the national media but he also doesn't get the proper respect from a lot of Steeler fans.
The more that I think about it, the closer I'm getting to just saying goodbye to the whole NFL when Ben finally retires.

Since 2015 Ben Roethlisberger, Le'Veon Bell and Antonio Brown have only played together 5 out of 24 games.
Don't need to wait that long.
We'll see Sunday how badly we'll miss Ben. It's just a preview of what is to come once Ben hangs it up.
This level of uncertain defeatism? Little to no confidence? The absolute dread over the course of the week? Knowing your Quarterback sucks and you have slim to no chance to win? Welcome to the Post-Ben era. At least back then we had a Defense to look forward to. This week there is NO Defense and NO Quarterback.
Woe be to all Steeler fans attending the upcoming shitshow on Sunday, because it is going to suck.
Tom Brady vs Landry Jones. The joke writes itself.

Add in Martavis Bryant, it's probably 2 quarters out of 24 games
If they revert back to an '80s-era version of the Steelers again, I know I'm not going to bother. I've already completely tuned out on the rest of the league.

You guys suck. I'll be here for the Steelers whoever plays. We get spoiled by championships and HoF players, but if you jump ship when things go badly, good riddance.
I don't see anyone jumping ship. It's just the reality that is observed. It's a good thing, in this case, that they actually play the game. Stranger things have happened.

Only meant for those fair weather fans.
What an asinine comment.

And who exactly are you referring to?

I'm not naive. I know how rare Ben is.
The fact remains Tomlin gets all the criticism for losing to inferior teams.
Ben's rating in this years losses was 62 and 57. "How did we get blown out by Philly?! How did we get blown out by Miami?!"
I think Roethlisberger's personality has a bigger effect on the Steelers than people realize.
The flip side to that is that Ben is one of those Michael Jordan types who does his best under pressure and thrives the larger the stage.
Some of you guys have some thin skin.

He's was outplayed by both of them and the Steelers lost both games, pretty badly.
Ben's a Jordan-type. He beats good teams and loses to shit teams consistently. It's not that asinine.
So you're saying the Jets are a good team? Give me a break! I wouldn't say the Eagles are a shit team. I stick by what I said.
Array title="touchdownward is a glorious beacon of light">
Yep, much like with Ben, we're going to have to trade up to get a QB when it comes time to replace him. The Steelers rarely finish outside of the top 15, therefore, pick low in the draft. Not looking forward to the day when Ben hangs up the cleats, he's the toughest QB in the league.
BLAH!!!Forever loving and missing you Gal.

My hope.....The Broncos are satisfied with Trevor Siemian and we can get Paxton Lynch in a trade. Sooner rather than later. Heath's retirement kinda caught us off guard, I feel. FO panicked a bit and traded for Green without due diligence. If Ben retires without any warning, we could very well fall into that 'Browns' QB hole. I would like to make that move now and be ready for the eventual.
And if the Broncos go with Lynch, trade for Siemian. That would be an upgrade as well.
