Greg de'Ville Posted October 18, 2004 Posted October 18, 2004 21-of-25 for a buck-93. Steelers rally and get a big win in Big D, 24-20, and go to 5-1. Patsies and Dog-Ass Jets are still unbeaten going into their showdown, but they best not be looking over their shoulders. The Stinky Littles are coming on and Big Ben showed again why he's a keeper.
BB2004 Posted October 18, 2004 Posted October 18, 2004 I saw him. Simply outstanding and didn't look like a rookie. Losman will hopefully have as much potential as this guy.
Foxboro Mike Posted October 18, 2004 Posted October 18, 2004 Wow, was I ever impressed by Roethlisberger. No way Tommy Maddox ever sees the field unless Big Ben gets hurt!
nodnarb Posted October 18, 2004 Posted October 18, 2004 i hope big ben isn't as good as he looks. no rookie should be that good. it should be illegal. he is so eerily calm out there, especially for a rookie. that's what you want to see. he has a Brady-like calmness about him. He makes the Steelers MUCH, MUCH better. We tried to get him, but couldn't find a trade partner. Hopefully, Losman will be just as good. I don't know how you get much better.

No way Tommy Maddox ever sees the field unless Big Ben gets hurt! 73582[/snapback] The Steelers will have a bye this Sunday, then we'll know if they're true "players" in the SB derby. Back-to-back homers vs. Patsies & Iggles at the Mustard. If the Dog-Ass Jets can't beat NE this week, the Stinky Little Steelers (with their Big QB) might be the ones to break the Patsies' record win streak. The Battle of Pennsyltucky Nov. 7 will be a HUGE game for both the Steelers & Iggles. Iggles haven't been tested yet.

billsburgh Posted October 19, 2004 Posted October 19, 2004 I was listening to the steeler game on the radio yesterday and their announcer Myron Cope was going on and on about how the steelers could thank Jax for being able to draft Ben. the reason being was that TD desperately wanted to trade with Jax to draft Ben ahead of the steelers and even Houston turned down a trade.
R. Rich Posted October 19, 2004 Posted October 19, 2004 Wow, was I ever impressed by Roethlisberger. No way Tommy Maddox ever sees the field unless Big Ben gets hurt! 73582[/snapback] Told ya so. I watched Roethlisberger from his last 2 years at Miami of Ohio on, and I had a feeling that he wouldn't be intimidated by playing in the NFL. It's early and there's still more football left, but so far, so good.

R. Rich Posted October 19, 2004 Posted October 19, 2004 They're not only healthy, which they weren't last year, but they are actually progressing as players as well, especially Kendall Simmons. Imagine that.

Like Dunta Robinson wouldn't have been available at 13? Those bastards cost us Big Ben. Again, i pray JP pans out but right now he would have to be incredible to pass Ben R. Manning & Rivers aren't even close either.
