    I was wrong and he didn't have to cause the D was a force the 2nd half. Think it was his best game so far and he still has it left decent enough.

    Ben's Brother is on 60 minutes now after the game.

    Ben was great in the first half, it's just that the steelers played the Cowherball in the second half

    Ben had an awesome first half, but he helped keep the Bengirls in the game in the 2nd half with numerous untimely incompletions

    No big mistakes. No turnovers. Good enough to win.

    That TD pass to AB was perfect.

    Why do we not use Grimble more in the passing game.

    With the way Bell and our defense are playing right now, Roethlisberger does not have to be incredible for the steelers to win.

    This team looks a bit like the 2004-2005 team with a very good running game and defense.

    Hopefully he keeps it up. I figured he probably wouldn't really be in form until weeks 8-10. Was nice to see.

    Re: Ben's Breakout Game

    We don't need Ben to throw for 300 yards a game. What we need is 20-24 250 yards and 2 Td's along with our running game for 125+ and solid defense, we win 8 out 10 of those games.

    In fact, the Steelers are 13-1 in their last 14 games including playoffs when Ben is not having 300 yards

    Of course, sometimes he was on pace for 300 yards in the first half like today, but the steelers decided to run the ball for most of the time in the second half.

    If Ben does not have turnovers, I like the chances that the steelers win with the way that the defense and Bell play.

    Yep, just keep it balanced and we're damn near un-beatable.

    Maybe we should put Ben's brother in on 3rd and 1 and in the red zone....and Hayley's sister.

    He’s just on the brink of being “there”. He’s still not “Ben”yet...

    I think he is close but didn't have to be the last two weeks. Glad he knows it and doing enough and not forcing the issue.

    I'm pretty sure he has more left then Manning had in his last SB win. That will work for this team! No doubt I think we seen the best of Ben.

    If McDonald didn't drop what should have been Ben's third TD pass at the end of the first half, would Ben be Ben yet?
