Not sure you get my point either...but who really cares.

Re: Grats to the Packers

Congrats Packers...you were the better team tonight.

You can't turn the ball over that often.

And here is where I will be controversial...

All this talk about Ben being great...

Montana is great...he comes back and wins with 2 minutes.

Ben is very good...but he puts his team in bad spots too often.

I think Ben can be better.

Controversial? More like spot on. Maybe on a Steeler board it is, but the media and fans were proven exactly right, by Ben and the D. This blemish will stick with Ben forever. And the D???? Please. Put up stats and great numbers against average QBs, and then get rocked by the great ones.

Are you kidding me? "This blemish will stick with Ben forever"...really? Like a Super Bowl loss is sticking to Kurt Warner, Peyton Manning or Tom Brady? Good god man, get some perspective...without him we don't even make it this far.

Unfortunately, this team lives and dies by Ben's arm. Tonight he played poorly. But, like it was just said, this team doesn't make it the SB without him.

Actually, yeah it is sticking with those guys. Peyton had a chance to really be considered one of the greats last year. He threw a pick 6. Brady is right up there with Montana right now if he wins that Super Bowl, but guess what? He isn't. Is Warner even a QUESTION for the HOF if he is 3-0 right now in the Big Game?

Take it how you want to take it, but Ben just went from a Hall of Famer to a good/really good quarterback.

Take it how you want to take it, but Ben just went from a Hall of Famer to a good/really good quarterback.

Whatever...he's brought us two Super Bowls & to the brink of a 3rd - without him we're a sub-.500 team. But hey, don't let me stop you from enjoying the loss.

I don't agree. We went 3-1 without Ben the first four games. I think we might have even been able to make the playoffs without him.

But...I don't think we would have made it to the Super Bowl without him. Probably would have been one-and-done in the playoffs.
