This is like arguing which of your children you love more!
Bubby Brister was the best
I’m going with Johnny Unitas.
lol. Definitely the “one that got away”.
I will say this. Although Ben has been labeled as something of a diva at times, I think he could have played the hard-nosed football that was played in the 60s and 70s. Imagine him as QB in place of Bradshaw (not taking anything away from Terry’s accomplishments). Big. Tough. Hard to sack. Throwing to Swann. Wow.
Ben would have been bigger than some linemen in that era lol. But yeah he could have hung in there in the toughest eras on the NFL. Him and Brett Favre imo were the toughest players I've seen play QB. Average QB's would have been forced to retire taking half the hits he's taken over his career. I mean he's finished super bowl seasons getting sacked 50+ times.
You have to wonder if Ben has any cartilage left in his noes, or maybe that’s all he has. Coming in as the backup against the Browns.....probably had no business playing in that game....and watching him with that club foot, taped up from the bottom of his shoe to part way up his shin. No one can argue that the man loves to be in the game. It’s going to be a sad day, (at least for me) when he retires. Over the years, there have been a number of players who have defined “Steelers Football”, and he is one them. Sad to say, but I don’t think we will ever see another one like him, suiting up in a Steelers uniform.
