    Those are Ben Roethlisberger's TD pass totals from 2010, 2011, 2012, 2013, and 2014 with three games left to play, respectively. This is NOT the sign of a QB whose best days are behind him. Trade him nowhere but here, and give him a blank check for the remainder of the decade.

    I may get frustrated when ugly Ben shows up but I wouldn't trade him for the world. It's been a fun ride and I think he has 5 years left

      Why *does* Bad Ben show up sometimes?

      I would chip in $5 if everyone else in Steeler Nation did too, to get him to a sports shrink. How about you guys??

            While funny, I think he could really use the sports shrink. Something goes wrong with him at times. We clearly know he has all the physical tools and when he's on, he's on fire.

            Even yesterday, he had accuracy problems for a while. A guy at this point in his career shouldn't have to be reminded of mechanics. Something is causing him to make mental mistakes, which translate into mechanical ones. Could be something in his personal life.

                  As I saw somebody point out elsewhere, Peyton doesn't just choke in the real playoffs. He also chokes in the fantasy playoffs, which typically start in week 14.

                    If Peyton keeps it up and drops 2 games the number two seed is in reach for the Steelers

                      Bad Ben shows up because of his success on the field. You win a lot and some guys get content. It is why we lose so much to the bad teams.
                      You can tell he looks a little bored playing the Raiders. Needs to find a way to get up for the bad teams to.

                            I have a theory. I think that if the team comes out throwing too many horizontal passes early, it puts Ben out of rhythm. You will note this to be true in many of the games where he's played badly.

                              If I were Ben's sports shrink, I would advise him not to bang his throwing wrist off of another player's wrist early in a game, because that could lead to a bunch of overthrown passes.
                              Steeler teams featuring stat-driven, me-first, fantasy-football-darling diva types such as Antonio Brown & Le'Veon Bell won no championships.

                              Super Bowl winning Steeler teams were built around a dynamic, in-your-face defense plus blue-collar, hard-hitting, no-nonsense football players on offense such as Hines Ward & Jerome Bettis.

                              We don't want Juju & Conner to replace what we lost in Brown & Bell.

                              We are counting on Juju & Conner to return us to the glory we once had with Hines & The Bus.
