Those pics say something.

His first year. Excited, ready to go and completely unaware of things.

His last year. His expression says- I'm tired of getting hit on Sundays.

Helluva career. And I would say he's on the Steelers Mount Rushmore. Along with Art, Mean Joe & Troy. Steelers are one of those teams where picking just four is impossible.

My guess SteelersNation will disagree with my Mt. Rushmore. What are your thoughts? It was tough not to list Woodson. He's my all time favorite franchise player.

BigBen's HOF speech should be a good one.

@pachyderm - Do not troll the team boards. Take that trash to the general.

Why is this even a debate? Mahomes is proving he is better than a lot more than just Ben.

Lol only Steelers fans would like to think its a debate.
Right now mahomes is a better terrell davis. His start is epic. But its short. Im not debating who is better. But I am debating a longevity factor. Hell nick foles had some awesome years.

I do think there are some fair points in the debate no doubt.... Was going to mention Ben's clutch factor... 4th quarter comeback win stats, etc. And Mahomes benefits from Andy Reids offense. We saw what Ben was capable of when he had a half-way decent OC in Haley. Think of what his career might have looked like had he worked with Haley for longer. But I do think you could plug Mahomes into a dysfunctional franchise like Cleveland or Houston and Mahomes would still be a contender. Essentially what Rodgers has done for GB all these years

I wish they let Ben take the reins more often. I think in 2020 they did out of desperation when the run game failed, but other years they should have let Ben do more in the 2nd half vs just letting him have the final 2 minutes. They might have been worried about Ben becoming too predictable, but he was so damn good at adapting to how the defenses were playing him.

Totally agree. Let him draw in the dirt. He was a hof qb….not a rookie…it worked….really well.
