[B]Can he still win? He deserves it. If only for staying alive, much less throwing 4 TDs, when being defended by a guy called Kelvin Beachum. WHOOOO????[/B]

The offense didnt score from the 1:11 mark of the 3rd quarter. Shut out in the 4th. Carson scored in the 4th and Ben didnt. Blame the D? Pffffffft

You better believe it. When the Raiders, who are 0-2, score 34 points on you, it's pathetic. I read, did NOT confirm, that the Steelers D only had 1 3rd down stop in the 2nd half. If true, that's pathetic regardless who you are playing. this is the same defense only played 1 series in the 3rd quarter of the Broncos game and gave up 7 points in about a minute. We're they too tired from sitting on the bench?

Ok, we all get your anti-Ben agenda but to not blame the defense for this loss is just stupid. We score 31 points and our defense lets an 0-2 team march up and down the field at will. Guess the offense is suppose to score 50 to cover for the defense now.

What does a record mean in the NFL? It means nothing hence the term "Any Given Sunday". The defense is the BEST PART of our team. Take Ben off the Steelers and we stil win (Batch, Dixon,Leftwich).
Take Polamalu/Harrison off and we lose. Oh by the way all of the Pro Bowlers and All Pros are on the DEFENSE (Harrison, Polamalu, Woodley, Hampton)

Anti Ben? I'm merely telling the truth. What did the Steeler Nation say when Brady put his team up in the 4th but lost to Plax and Eli? They called him a loser and disregarded what he did in the game. Ben was scoreless in the 4th, this is a fact. Should I pat him on the back for 3 quarters work? Lets look at the last 10 years and see who has shown up more the offense or the D.
You really want to go there?
The offense didn't score in the fourth quarter because Antonio Brown lost a fumble in Raiders territory. But let's blame Roethlisberger for that. :wft
