And of course Cowher is going to let him start with a 104 degree temp 15 days after getting his appendix out. Must make Charlie Batch feel great. And of course there will be that built in excuse is Ben doesn't look like himself tonight....
Hope it's not a surgery-related infection causing the fever. That could be dangerous.MoLewisrocks said:WTF is it with this kid.

Only one Qb other than Brady could have led his team to wins on the road against Indy and Denver in the playoffs last year. That QB was Ben. The other four on your list are unproven in the clutch, have happy feet under pressure, wither against the blitz, puke in the huddle, or throw gawd-awful untimely INTs.Remix 6 said:Bens not even top 5..

Roethlesberger's performance in Denver was fantastic. He did in 2005 what our QB could not, beat the blitz. How R's face plant affects him psychologically is still an open question but he showed unbelievable, history making poise in three straight road playoff games prior to the SB. For that he deserves more credit than Manning, Palmer et al have received, combined. His SB performance was poor, but not enough to lose the game, which is all that matters in SBs.MoLewisrocks said:Basically except for three road games in the playoffs that was Ben too. Remember Charlie Batch got them there while Ben was having one of his semi annual surgical procedures, Ben rose up as if in a semi-coma once the playoffs started to carry them to Detroit and then he woke up and choked in the Superbowl. Maybe he was sick or hurt in the playoffs. But he was healthy in the Superbowl and he just sucked. He thus became the youngest QB in history to not cost his team their SB victory.
Byron is another favorite of mine who will never be on a top 5 list. Jacksonville is a QB away from being a really good team.

Agreed. Even though Madden can be annoying, him and Al Michaels combined are ten times better than this unbelieveably boring MNF crew.Kdo5 said:I would watch but all three of these announcers torcher me. Go the hell back to the old Monday Night. This one is going to be a flop..
