Blame yourself Ben two weeks straight

[SteelBucks]

This collapse was a team effort. Fundamentally unsound football on the field and on the sideline.

[Steeler Mafia]

I have stayed quiet all year long, but I can't stand to do so any longer. Ben can say or blame whomever he wants, but these two losses are on him. He made the descision to throw both those balls. Trying to be cute rather than thinking about managing the game in the situations given. He needs to take this offseason and think about protecting the football and, hopefully, LEARN THE DANG OFFENSE!

1 and 6 for the last 7 games. 3 losses since Ben's return.

Not exactly the resume of a playoff team.

i say again...

[BradshawsHairdresser]

i effin can't stand steelers fans.

you are unbelievable.

without ben we have ZERO superbowl appearances in the past 8 years. not to mention 2 superbowl wins and an additional appearance.

just shut up!!!

Sorry to disappoint, but I won't shut up. Who died and made you boss?

Undoubtedly, we owe a debt of gratitude to Ben for his contributions in past years. I'm thankful we've had him these past 8 years.

But does that mean that we can't come to a point where we recognize that his performance isn't what it could be, or once was? Hey, let's suit up Terry Bradshaw...and I can't believe anyone would ever argue with that notion or say otherwise...because, after all, without him, we would have 4 less superbowl wins than we do.

Ben told everyone he did not want to change the offense. This offense has taken some of Ben's magic away it seems. Hope Ben can get healthy and find his magic again for next year.

Tomlin, Haley and DL was questionable at best. But neither blamed any one other than the whole team. Ben distinctly called out TH although both was directly his fault for the loss

how is lebeau questionable today?

This guy hasn't posted anything that's made sense on here so don't expect an intelligent response here.

Dalton outplayed Ben today.

...I've seen this before with the Penguins. ...arguably the best player on the team at one point, JJ, was disatisfied with the coaching (Constantine) his star status v. Lemieux, his arrogance, and suddenly the entire team is in disarray. I don't like Tomlin because he did not corral the attitude problems. I have a really hard time with Ben's controlling ego. I just have a funny feeling that Ben wanted to play poorly enough so as to see Haley gone. Ben forced his teamates to take an unnecessary stand for him a couple of years ago, and Ben did not reperesent his team well over the years publically. Those are the things that JJ did. Nobody would argue JJ's skill, but his attitude

When teams are tempted to take a chance late in a game backed up in their own territory, they might remember what [URL="http://sports.yahoo.com/nfl/players/6770"]Ben Roethlisberger[/URL] did on Sunday and run out the clock instead. ....

Ben has issues. Draft Geno Smith!
