I'm curious as to what Steelers fans think of Big Ben's two crappy performances in the playoff games. Seems like his mug was all over the TV (commercials) the past month or so. Do you think (1) he lost some of his focus with his new-found fame, or (2) was the thumb hurting more than the team would admit, or (3) were other factors (coaching) more to blame?
I think there's something in his hand, an infection or something torn, that Roeth was trying to hide. Desperately trying not to let his team down, he didn't see when it was time to say "Hey, coach, my hand isn't doing so hot, maybe you should bring in the back-up."
Could be series.
