Take the Covid19 discussion to one of the several appropriate threads dedicated to it.

I'm about to spend some time I could put to better use cleaning up the thread.

If you can't restrain yourself I will restrain you.

Not really. I guess it depends on how you view Roethlisberger. 

Ben, to me, looks like he’s at the end. He’s no better than a middle of the road QB that could fall off a cliff at this point. They may have a window for a year or 2 because of that defense but the offensive skill players aren’t good. They look like a 9-7ish team

Step back how? 

That's ludicrous. Josh Allen is not a better QB than Ben Roethlisberger as of yet.

You dont predict future success of a QB on past success at that age.....on pure availability alone Josh is the better QB now.

 

He is old......he is taking on injuries.....the steelers just made a mistake.

Ben can’t move anymore and is most definitely not on the TB12 diet regimen. He’s “coming back” but he will be hurt again like he always is. Retirement is calling him. 


Ben is on the beer, cheese, and ribs regiment . I am also on that diet regiment.

It's not what you've done, it's the future dude. I hope you don't expect Ben to continue to perform as he has in the distant past.

Well it's just like with Josh, until proven otherwise.

John.....what you hearing....are we looking at a veteran back?  Any other free agents like a edge possibly?

The team has lost 6 of his last 8 starts and his team has a very good D. I also fully expect JA will be better than BR this year based most on Ben being worse than JA major improvement.

I think Big Ben has taken a step back and I think the rest of the offense is average otherwise- the Defense is obviously impressive but I think we have a better roster then them.

 

At this point, kinda hard for me to envision BR being this upper echelon QB. Age, away from the fray, maybe hunger as potential reasons why.

 

Or - I'm completely off my rocker and he kills it.....guess we'll see.

I think Ben has taken a few steps forward...towards the beer fridge. The guy looked like your average 50 year old Steelers fan on the sidelines last year. 

 

The camera added 35 lbs as well.

Well - I have to view him through a wide lens.

More like he added about 50lbs on his own. He looked like an offensive lineman by year's end. 

 

My bad. That beard must've hid those 15 lbs.

Eli, TB12, Rivers....all moved on. Ben's injury and ridiculous contract is all that's keeping him on that roster.

He had 5100 yards and 34 TD's in 2018. Wait and see what happens after the injury to make those assumptions.

 

He may be done, hopefully. But there's no way Josh Allen is a better QB until then.

So, for a 3rd time now: who was the better QB in 2019?
