You definitely should’ve posted that after that SB.

Lol. Let’s wait to see the report before jumping to Bradshaw injury-type conclusions. Ben isn’t disinterested or is going to give up $68m unless he absolutely has to.

I interpret a physical shutdown as an injury, career ending.

I’m not jumping to conclusions he may be A OK. But the reality is he’s 37. An elbow injury at his age, if severe, would probably be a coin flip as to whether it was career ending or not. Those aren’t favorable odds. He isn’t getting younger and doesn’t do yoga or sleep in a bubble like Tom Brady.

I hope he’s ok. He’s the best QB the Steelers have ever had. And the money may be too much to just walk away, but depending on this injury and severity he may not have a choice. You can’t play QB in the NFL if you can’t physically throw a ball anymore. I hope this is something minor.

Let’s see what the injury is. If he needs major surgery on his elbow, I’d say it’s a 50 percent chance his career is over.

You sound as funny as Sanders, and he only does it for ratings, and was called “ridiculous” for his rant.

His mom was a yoga and substitute school teacher. How do you know Ben doesn’t do yoga?

Brady lives in a bubble?

Roethlisberger is apparently lost for the season & will have elbow surgery; the bad news just adds up.
However, perhaps it IS Rudolph's time and he will become Tom Brady 2.0, who stepped in for Drew Bledsoe when he was hurt , a long, long time ago.
Then again, with bad coaching and a lousy defense, I hold out little hope this season.
It would appear, admittedly after only two games, that the Balt. Ratbirds are the class of the AFC North.

They picked a bad week to trade the 3rd string quarterback

Season is over without a franchise quarterback. We had good years. Hoping for some good draft picks.

He stinks, and has said many times he doesn’t want a backup role, however, after almost 3 seasons out of the league, perhaps he’s that desperate.

I’m sure he could still go to the CFL or XFL.

Neither of those things is true.
