Steelers Point Total Record Over 5 Game Span Over the past five games the Steelers have
scored 27 points or more in every game. The Steelers have never done
that in their history. This is a record setting offense. Ben
Roethlisberger was referred to after the game as being one game short of
Tom Brady whose 58 wins in his first six seasons are the most wins by a
Quarterback in his first six seasons in NFL history. Ben has 57 wins
with 8 more games to go in the regular season of 2009. It's safe to
say he's going to shatter the record. He is leading the league, tied with Peyton
Manning at a 70.6 percent completion rate. He is fifth in yards,
with 69 yards separating the third and fifth ranking. He is tied
with Brees at 8.8 yards per completion. After the game last night
Steve Young said the reason he was not mentioned with the "elite
Quarterbacks of the NFL" was because "he isn't one of them. He's
different." Right. He is different. He's
better! I don't see Brady, Peyton, Brees, Palmer or Eli carrying
defenders on their back, shaking them off like they are nothing, improving
their completion percentages when they are HIT like Ben Roethlisberger
does. It doesn't matter the media has brain drain. Any casual
observer can see the obvious. One reason the media loves the Pats is obvious
when you look at their Super Bowl wins this decade. Two Super Bowl
wins are Ben Roethlisberger's, compared to the great Brady's three while
he and his team were cheating. Don't compare the Steelers
championships to the Patriot's. I will blow a hole a mile wide in
every point anyone tries to make to me about the Patriots' Super Bowl
Champions. Remember, we're talking about all Steelers
history, including the glory days of the seventies. Never has a
Steelers team scored so efficiently over a five game spread. The
Steelers have improved themselves over 2008. This team is run by a
Quarterback with two Super Bowl rings. We are spoiled fans.
