By my count, the Pittsburgh defense has one and Ben has one. Don't try to claim Roethlisberger did anything positive in Super Bowl 40. 9/21 for 123 yards and 2 INTS (0 TDs) is what I would expect from Curtis Painter -- the backup for the Colts.
The refs helped the Steelers out too, I accept that, what happened to the NFL being a team sport like you say later on in your post though? Don't flip-flop, he was still the starting QB and his team won
with him. One could say he was a huge part in why they got there in the first place.
LOL! 2-minute drives are not the exclusive territory of Roethlisberger. Brady has done it numerous times in the Super Bowl. Manning did it in the AFC Championship a few years back. Drew wasn't in a position where he HAD to win a game with a 2-minute drill and you're going to hold that against him? LOL
Oh, and "gave up his body"? LOL. He tackled a GIMPED Nick Harper, who just a few weeks prior to that game had been STABBED IN HIS LEG. If not for that or the idiot liquored up kicker, Ben would not have had a chance to embarrass himself in SB 40. But since he did, we can laugh.
Uhh, did I say he was the only QB EVER to do it? LOL! No, I know Brady did it a couple times, I'm not debating/comparing Brady. Unfortunately Brees hasn't been in the play-offs enough to be in a pressure-packed 2-minute drill situation, not holding it against him but it speaks on him not making the play-offs very much or having a good run while in one.
And stabbing or not Ben had to turn his back to Harper before tackling him, who had room to run in nearly ever direction except the one he took. Was one of the most impressive non-offense plays I've seen a QB make. If Harper seriously couldn't play then he shouldn't have been in there, him being in on a goal-line stance is enough for me to assume he was good enough to put out there in one of the most desperate moments that game had for Indy.
Big Ben was ATROCIOUS against the Seahawks in that Super Bowl. The Steelers won IN SPITE of him.
He was still the QB of the team Brad Johnson/Trent Dilfered his way through the game. Ward doesn't get his MVP of the SB without Ben zoning in on his clutch receiver.
Football is a team sport. I don't think Drew was playing defense too.
An elite QB overcomes poor defenses. Warner always had crappy D's and he did all he could to overcome it, to the tune of something like 10-5 in the play-offs.
LOL, I'm not dreaming buddy. I've seen Ben shrug off blitzers with ease, nearly get pulled to the ground and still come out of it, move all around the pocket just enough to get his throw off.. he's shown me more composure in the pocket then Brees, put it that way, though I have seen more of him.
What? Now you're being ridiculous. Brees played well with San Diego prior to his injury. You haven't seen Rivers take the team deeper than Drew has the Saints, have you? And arguably, Rivers has had the most talented team in the league a couple of those years.
Yeah, he played well in SD, never took them anywhere though. I wouldn't say Rivers has the better team either, it's debatable, SD's defense was vicious with Jammer and Merriman when Brees was there and still had Gates, a *great* LT, Vicent Jackson was there, they had Tuner as the backup RB, etc..
You're right, Ben doesn't have to work with many doctors in the league. He seems to have a penchant for working with lawyers, though.
No arguement there. The man should be dead for riding a motorcycle without a helmet, and then he should be in jail for doing what he did more recently. Never said the guy was an angel.
