The 2010 Pittsburgh Steeler's have started the season without their starting quarterback. Not only this, they lost their two backups and were forced into playing their veteran fourth string quarterback, Charlie Batch. Roethlisberger's suspension was for the first four games of the 2010 season, which was shortened by NFL commissioner Roger Goodell from the original six game suspension. The Steeler's were 3-1 without 'Big Ben' and in many eyes of beloved black and gold fans this is a successful start without the former Super Bowl MVP. During this suspension, Roethlisberger was not even permitted to be a part of the organization and was forced to stay in shape and work out with local high school teams. On a bright note, Roethlisberger and the Steelers have a bye week to implement 'Big Ben' back into their starting lineup and work on the flow of the offense. The first game back for Ben will be on October 17th against AFC North rival, the Cleveland Browns. The Steelers, NFL teams, fans, and especially Roger Goodell will be anxiously awaiting the performance of the reformed Ben Roethlisberger.
I think he is going to have a huge game and will be a force this year. He is a playmaker and will find ways to win like always. I am very excited to see how this week and the coming weeks pan out for him.
ReplyDeleteBig Ben’s return to the Steelers on Sunday was better than anticipated. Ben brought the Steelers offense back to what it was last year and helped lead the Steelers to their fourth win of the season. I believe with Ben back in the lineup that the Steelers are the best team in the AFC and will make a run for another Super Bowl Championship this season.
