Over 29 years of fanhood Posted April 21, 2010 Share Posted April 21, 2010 He could be a good problem to have. Hell we haven't had a QB half as good as Ben for 10 years. And with the possiblity of getting after 4 games, not bad. Only have to hope and pray that we at least do well against the AFC East during that time. Think the real point is there is a pattern and he does not seem to be learning anything. It's remarkable the extent to which folks looking for the quick, easy answer instead of giving the new guy a chance to build a team with his own brand of football. Why swipe up a legally troubled Big Ben, trade for McNabb, or take somebody elses cast off. We need to draft and develop a solid NFL quarterback and build solid lines, then we will have a team that is good for a while, and competative each year, like the Ravens, Steelers, Patriots, Packers, Colts, Eagles, Jets have done or seems to be doing. Drew Bledsoe was our last quick wein. While it provided a temporary boost, it was not long before we were back at square 1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UConn James Posted April 21, 2010 Share Posted April 21, 2010 I worried it will be Clausen. The Steelers are going to need new franchise QB. But will they really be willing to hand the reins over to a rookie? They've got Leftwhich now, and he could be their guy for the year, I guess. They did a few years ago.... But, to put my two pennies into the topic... just the way he played down the stretch last season, I wouldn't want him. Throw in all the other things: having to give up a top-10, a HUUUUGE contract, and the legal/league problems and he is untouchable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mjohns85 Posted April 21, 2010 Share Posted April 21, 2010 No question that Big Ben is a scumbag, but I would sell my soul to win a Super Bowl, and I hope the Bills don't hesitate to bring him to Buffalo if its possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peter Posted April 21, 2010 Share Posted April 21, 2010 Welcome to Two Bills Drive where we have quarterback controversies about QBs that are not even on our team. No one likes a good QB controversy like the folks at TBD. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

K-Gun10 Posted April 21, 2010 Share Posted April 21, 2010 I would sell my soul to have a winning season, we could win one game with ben out for four weeks get him back 1-3 could be possible, and in the draft get an O-line, but then we need weapons for him.

K-Gun10 Posted April 21, 2010 Share Posted April 21, 2010 Offer them a 2nd, trade Lynch on draft day for a second when the Giants shock people and take CJ Spiller and teams are scrambeling for a RB like houston. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PS 56 Posted April 21, 2010 Share Posted April 21, 2010 The team 'talking to them' seems to be the Raiders That is the perfect team for big ben Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glass To The Arson Posted April 21, 2010 Share Posted April 21, 2010 I say do it... give them our #1 since no QB in the draft looks good this year round 2 goes to LT round 3 - NT round 4 - LB EASY! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NY Nole Posted April 21, 2010 Share Posted April 21, 2010 I would buy another pair of season tickets if this deal was made. I honestly think there is no way Ben gets dealt -- but don't we have a connection to Pittsburgh via Whaley. If anyone knew how to work with the Steelers it is him!

dpberr Posted April 21, 2010 Share Posted April 21, 2010 Could always be a three way trade ala the Eric Dickerson trade in 1987. You'd have the Steelers sending BR to say the Bills (hypothetically) for either the #9 or a second round in 2010 and second round in 2011. The Bills in turn, trade BR to another team for a slew of picks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coach Tuesday Posted April 21, 2010 Share Posted April 21, 2010 This is all a ruse. The Steelers are doing a great job of doing everything they can to scare the bejesus out of Big Ben, in the hopes that he undergoes a personality transplant. Threatening to trade him to the Bills, Rams or Raiders (to the point where one or more of those teams might take the offer seriously) is a genius move on the Steelers' part, but it's all part of the trick. He isn't going anywhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
