I can't stand Big Ben

[Steelers1985]

Hahah Im not a troll. And also not a kid. There is no way Ben is a "bus driver". Was he one last year when he threw 32 touchdowns? His stats arent glorious and hes not really flashy, his girlfriend isnt Jessican Simpson, and he also rarely blows the game. You guys can have the hollywood types and I'll take the playoffs.

Or the Steelers made plays. Go ahead discredit them it's what idiots do.

No I think idiots, or people with no life go on other peoples boards and talk smack when their teams wins. Go back to playing Halo online or whatever the hot xbox game is kid.

When your team wins, whether it's by your own doing or your defense, or whatever you can be whatever the heck you want to be. If teams don't want him to be cocky, arrogant, or whatever then all they have to do is beat him.

where did all these Steelers fans come from? In the entire time I have been on this board, I have yet to see one Steeler fan. Now I make this thread and here come the yellow and black cockroaches.....

Had we not choked the game away, they would have been nowhere to be found.....cause afterall winning is the best form of RAID....

Big Ben can be cocky because our QB made him look like an All Pro today! His performance included no interceptions, which was a huge difference in the game. Good job Romo!

It is typical for their fanbase. If they are having a bad season and you ask them about the game the response is "oh, there was a game on today?"

Right I don't own a xbox but you fail kind of like your team did today.
I came here saturday to talk football and I thought we were going to lose today but I can obviously tell you a tissue with all the crying your doing.

Um..? I been here since Saturday and I picked you guys to win.

And the cowboy fans have a billion excuses as to why they lost.

Jeez, people. Show some class. It's embarrassing enough you turn and eat your own after a single loss, but that Pittsburgh defensive team played an outstanding game today. Take the loss like men and quit embarrassing yourselves.

That said, I'd like nothing better than to meet these guys again this year on a neutral field with no wind. It'd be another great game.

Great post . I think it would be fun...we are a rival! Rival in a superbowl? that'd be awesome.

I always find it funny when Cowboys fans blast opposing quarterbacks who win ugly, or win by "managing" a game, when those same arguments were used to blast our own Troy Aikman. I hated the argument then and still do.

I have disliked Roethlisberger for some time. I hate how he seems so smug and arrogant ... but above all, I hate that he so often finds a way to win.

He's everything Romo isn't. Roethlisberger can play horribly all game, yet lead the Steelers to the game-winning field goal or touchdown. Romo hasn't shown he can do this -- basically, win ugly -- when it matters most late in the season.

Roethlisberger was putrid most of today, yet didn't throw a single pick. Contrast that to Romo who, when things go bad, things go baaad. And believe me, I'm not a Romo basher. I'm still of the belief we're fortunate to have him because I still feel like it was yesterday when I spent my Sundays watching Leaf, Stoerner and Carter.

But Romo needs to develop the sort of thing that makes Roethlisberger so good. We know Romo can go out there and throw for 300 and win games. But he needs to show he can win when the passing game isn't always there, when every possession is so valuable and we can't afford turnovers and when the season is on the line.

Roethlisberger pretty regularly does all of that. And I hate him for it.

This is a very solid post. Ben does come off as arrogant sometimes even to Steeler fans but he can throw 3 interceptions and at the end he will drive us down and give us the points we need. Ben holds onto the ball to long but like Tomlin says ya gotta take the good with the bad..with winning today he is the alltime leader for QB wins in there first 5 years.

Pretty much, my hatred for Big Ben developed when in his rookie year in '04, he came out gangbusters...while our Dallas team stunk it up a good one. Then the year after, the Steelers made that incredible Super Bowl run, while we tanked a good one in the second half of that season.

So yeah, if anything, it was more of a different hatred when you see one team with young guys having tons of success while your team is sucking it up a good one. And to boot, Big Ben is 2-0 against us.

Now McFlabb...hatred for him is far different...

Basically, EVERY QB *should* have some smugness and arrogance, why? B/c they're the LEADERS of their respective teams.

The LAST QB you would want is someone who is *nice* and comes off a bit too soft.

Like I said in my previous post-my hatred for Big Ben is largely b/c of the timing aspect...he started having success the same minute this Dallas team started stinking it up.

What aggravates me is Ben played amazing in that playoff run..then the superbowl comes and he looks like Tommy Maddox >.<!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

And im sure most people get tired of rom jumping up and down after a wide open td pass against lousy teams, or him pouting and throwing his helmet and whining by himself on the bench when something doesnt go his way. I wuld be cocky if I had that kind of talent around me too.

romo is a crybaby and a smug, arrogant, overrated choker, who has most fooled. And the people who dont realize that about romo, are probably are the same kind of people who could have been fooled into thinking hitler was a good man too with a good plan.

WOW. Now that has to qualify as the dumbest thing i have ever read on this board... I guess this idiot thinks we should just get rid of hitler...i mean Romo. You are a really uneducated fan.

 

[bigE79]

Big Ben had 2-3 good passes all game, and yet he has the nerve to be cocky and arrogant. Yes his team won, but not because of Ben. They won because of the defense.

Whats funny is the same **** people on this board are saying about romo,the steelers fans were saying the same thing about BIG FLEM after their loss to the giants,eagles and colts.yea BIG FLEM is the reason they won today...moron

 

[BruceWayne]

Hate him all you want but the kid wins - Roethlisberger was 17-of-33 for 204 yards in his 48th career victory, the most by a quarterback in his first five seasons

He didn't throw a pick 6 either. When his team needed him to step up he did just that.

 

[mmillman]

The thing Romo doesn't do that the good ones do is take care of the ball. When you are in the red zone or backed up in your own territory you have to take care of the ball. Romo hasn't learned that a punt isn't always a terrible thing. He has to manage the game better.
