Big Ben was the greatest QB of 2004 draft
Eli had the two best SB performances, but clearly Ben was the best overall QB of that class. Ben is also the only QB to ever be the #6 seed and beat the 1, 2 & 3 team on the road to win a SB. If I had to take one of the three from the 2004 class it would be Ben. Easy call.
Easily, no doubt
Outside of Peyton and Brady he was the greatest QB of the any draft in the 2000’s
Eli #1 in that draft for a reason go Big Blue but respect to Big Ben he a legend in Steel City💯
Obviously so. Ben is the only Hall of Famer in that draft class. Probably should deserve a spot on the top 10 all time list too. Ben is 5th all time in passing yards, 8th all time in passing touchdowns, 5th all time in wins, T2nd all time for game winning drives, 3rd all time in 4th quarter comebacks, 8 time AFC north champ, 3 time AFC conference champ, 2 time superbowl champ. Also never had a season below .500. Plus the ONLY quarterback to ever have two back to back 6TD games. Last one is kinda esoteric, but a nice cherry on top, lol. Dude was at least top 10 in every important category for a quarterback, if not higher.
One of the most underrated QB skills that Big Ben had in spades was that glorious pump fake.
Agreed 100%. I can’t think of anyone who ever had a better pump fake than Ben. Mind-blowing that he could go through such a full throwing motion, hang on, reload, and fire the ball.
It was there from day one. He was doing it as a rookie.
You need big, strong hands to pump fake like that...remember Ben's, because you won't see them from Kenny Pickett
Brown was just CRAZY!! Both as a receiver and well....just crazy....
100% believe that getting knocked out by Burfict in the playoffs broke something in his brain. He was weird before, but he went nuts after that.
I love the disbelief in the announcers voice when he says " he's had a better half than that? "
Phil was in disbelief.
This offense was so fun. I would love to have one more season with all of them! So much talent
WHAAAAAT
True, this team was loaded with offensive talent. They were fun to watch, weren't they?
Ben is one of the greatest to ever play the QB position. It’s a damn shame that the media never gave the man his props and always gave him the short end of the stick. He’s in my top ten QB’s of all time easily. He was just different. You see how his play has reflected on the game today with the likes of Josh Allen and Mahomes in and outside the pocket. Both of these guys move like Ben did in his career, not quite as rugged as Ben was but damn was it a privilege getting to watch him play.
Agreed, Ben in his prime was phenomenal. Truly one of a kind.
I agree Ben had uncanny escapeability for a qb of his size. For those who were lucky enough to see him play in his prime , I say you are missed. We love # 7 and can't wait to see you in Canton.

Sucks all the newer nfl fans first impression was the worst part of his career. Bens break sack ability and nasty pump fakes. Timeless great
@@verdations531 the thing is, it takes nothing to go watch an old game or highlights of him playing. People are just content with seeing the current version of a player and calling them bad and saying they suck.
@@td4244 agreed man
Imagine if Ben had played in a pass heavy offense his whole career like a lot of these top stat guys did. There are only about 2 other QB’s in history I’d take with Ben to drive down and win a game. Thank you for the memories Ben!!
Martavius had so much potential
That was an amazing 2 weeks. My favorite.
My favorite QB of all time.
Thanks for everything you've given to Pittsburgh and to the Steelers! You wore #7 but you'll always be #1 to me! I'll miss you!!
Growing up in LA in that time we didn't have a team, so everyone was all over the place raiders, Rams, cowboys, and chargers, I was blessed enough to watch Troy Palumalo in USC, when he went pro I decided then to choose my team 2005, I followed Troy to the Pittsburgh Steelers were he in troduced me to BIG BEN , JEROME BETTIS, BRETT KEISLE, HYNES WARD, AND THE REST, EVERY DAY SINCE, IM BECAME A DIE HEART FAN, WATCH OLD CLIPS OF THE TERRY BRADSHAW JOE GREEN LYN SWAN, HOW LUCKY WAS I TO HAVE CHOOSEN SUCH PRESTIGE TEAM, TILL THE DAY MY CASKET DROPS, I BLEED BLACK AND YELLOW..
Polamalu*
Why Doesn't Everybody get this? From Coach Noll, to Cowher, to Tomlin.....Steelers ALWAYS at least in the Playoffs.....just a Solid TEAM playing Tough Football in a Really Tough Division.....and Always Draft Players who Shine, and most of the time.....even for other Teams.
Steelers never rebuild......they just Reload!
There was 5 minutes left when he had 522. We all know he could have thrown for 600
Man I miss 2014. I was in 7th grade and our football team went 7-1 and won the conference championship. Good times.
The bar was set pretty high for Mitch Trubisky and Kenny Pickett. Good luck lol.
Best back to back weeks a qb ever had in the regular season
This team was so fun to watch
Brown went nuts, but he'll always have a place in my heart for his skills and the thrills he gave to us Steeler fans.
Loved him early on. To me, his most memorable catch is still the helmet catch in the 2010 Divisional playoff game vs. Baltimore.
He was remarkable in his prime and the connection he and Ben had was undeniable, but I'm ambivalent about Brown because he became a distraction and (IMO) a locker room cancer as his career progressed.
Also, with the exception of a couple of games, he was pretty pedestrian in the postseason.
@@mcmillenandwife yes that's true. We all thought he had his head on straight all those years because of his work ethic... That went south very quickly although Ben calling him out on a play that wasn't his fault precipitated his downfall. Funny though, both he and Bell have a Superbowl ring so perhaps they got the last laugh?
It's nice to get a reminder of just how outstanding Antonio Brown was before he lost his mind.
And it's kind of sad, watching these highlights just how good Martavius Bryant could have been had he been able to lay off the weed some.
Yeah, AB in his prime was SO friggin' good. It's a shame how it ended with him in Pittsburgh. Very bizarre.
@@mcmillenandwife It's a shame how it ended with him in the league. He just lost his mind.
This was by far the greatest 2 week performance of all time and I don't think it'll ever be broken. Even the big bad SPYGATE boybTom Brady never did THIS! I miss watching Ben play so much!
Boy,I really miss seeing guys like Ben and Mario Lemieux in the black and gold. Seems like a lifetime ago either of these guys have played.
2023, still the only quarterback to accomplish this feat. Sidenote. Ben is STILL the youngest quarterback to ever win the Super Bowl. I don't see these records being broken.
this was an exciting two weeks, i worked with a person that claimed to be a colts fan then switched to baltimore that same season, so i had bragging rights for a while ;)
Thanks for Sharing this.....Maybe Trubuski and Pickett can grow into this kind of Production.....but id rather See Naji run Crazy this year!
Antonio’s route running was unmatched.
Never thought I'd say I miss Todd Haley's offense...but man, I'm missing Todd Hailey's offense! Canada has got to be the worst OC we've had.
I wasn't a Haley fan, but he was a GENIUS compared to Canada.
No one in that draft came close to his numbers. Future first ballot HOF'er , and he take his rightful place amongst the rest of the Steelers who are enshrined in Canton.
PS4L
Matt Canada can only wish he could call plays like that lmao
I wish AB could have stayed in Pittsburgh and finished his career with Ben.
God our receiving core was godly
It was. I'd take these guys, though: czcams.com/video/W3ysxgtokfo/video.html
Needed a pickmeup to remind of what our offense used to be. We miss you 7
It’s like they’re playing a different game, isn’t it?
Then, we lost to this team in the playoffs but the team picked it up that year and made it to the playoffs four years in a row after missing it the previous two.
This era was the best that Ben ever played in for the Steelers. Great running back great wide receivers. At this point Ben was a great quarterback. It's going to be a little while to we are this good again with Kenny Pickett.
I agree, this was the pinnacle of Ben's career, although I think Ben was great (albeit unpolished) from the moment he first took the field.
You're probably not old enough to remember how bad Terry Bradshaw was in his first few years and he ended up pretty good. LOL I'm not saying Pickett will be that good but you never know. Time will tell. 🙂
@@Straydogger I remember Bradshaw battling Gilliam for the starting job. I've been a Steelers fan since 1975. I've been watching them since 73 or 74. I reckon that I'm old enough.
Was at the ravens game. Was wild.
Oh Hell Yeah !!!
Great team but what a missed opportunity to not win a couple more SB's with Brown Bell Bryant and Ben. The loss to Jacksonville in playoffs still hurts.
Agreed, that 2017 Jacksonville loss ranks among one of the most disappointing ever for me. Hard to believe the Steelers didn't come away with at least one more championship with all that firepower on offense.
Dont like Ben as a person, but he's one of the best QBs ever to play.
These years were so frustrating. Back When The Steelers had weapons at their disposal and Ben was actually good.
Back when we did more than just jet sweeps 😢
THE STEELERS SURE HELPED THEMSELVES WHEN THEY DRAFTED BEN BET THE BROWNS ARE SORRYHE WAS SO TALENTED AND UNDER APPRECIATED BY THE NFL HE IS FOR SURE A FUTURE HOF QB MISS HIM BUT GLAD HE IS ENJOYING HIS RETIREMENT
Big Ben is back! knew he be back.
WTF are you talking about???
Look it up Sailor,
Hey Tim, I saw on your website you have the 1996 Colts vs Cowboys game and the 1996 Cowboys vs Bears game. Could you post those or make them available on your site?
Yes! It may be a week or two. I haven’t converted them from VHS yet, so I’ll have to dig ‘em out, convert ‘em and upload ‘em, but I’d be glad to do it.
Hey, just a heads up, I finally found the tape with those two '96 Dallas games on it. Stay tuned!
🐐
interesting fact here...
Ben didn't even make it to 30 TD passes on the year that season
He had a low # of them coming into this game... so the 12 just got him up to 16 (at the time) from what I recall
Yes he was
That NFL record I don't think will ever be broken. Tom Brady can't even touch that record! 🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🖤💛🖤💛🖤💛🖤💛
If only AB didn't go crazy...
Blame the bengals
Bell, Brown, Bryant.........what could have been...... Brady happened
.........
Yep.
@Jose Hernandez when?
@Jose Hernandez I thought you said Brady had a bad secondary as an excuse I read it too fast.
@Jose Hernandez yeah if we had a good secondary and no Brady at least one short bowl appearance since I don’t think they would beat Atlanta or Philly in 16 or 17. Maybe Carolina in 15
@@wraith1117 ben was a great qb. Anybody who says differently and wouldn't have wanted him on their team is either lying or an idiot. Excluding say the Patriots. But by and large every other team in the league who never makes the playoffs perennial losers would love to have him on their team
Interesting that #7 did against Baltimore (old) and Baltimore (new).
These were the days when Ben carried Tomlin to victory. Tomlin owes his streak of non-losing seasons to Ben…and lots of luck since
Kenny Pickett, please work on that pump fake. It's part and parcel to not staring down your receivers.
was going through the list of players that played when Ben was at the helm. Good god there are some names there. Some are already HOFer's, and quite a few that will be there after some time. The era of Big Ben was some real fun to watch. To be fair though. The second game in this vid was against the Ravens without Reed, Lewis, and more. If they were there I reall don't think Ben would have ever thrown that many TD's.
Steelers/Ravens during the Ben era was the best matchup in football. Period. There have been a few blowouts in there, but most were settled in the final minutes by a kick or a last-second TD. 👍🏻
@@mcmillenandwife Agreed. ofther than a few, those games came to 3-5 points, and yeah, a last minute TD or Fieldgoal. And every one feeling sore the next day. But in the game showed here, none of those players mentioned were still playing at that point. Most of them left in 2012. No way Ben would have put up 6td's against that Defense a few years before.
@@wraith1117 In 2007 vs those 2 guys Big Ben threw 5 TDP & passed for a perfect rating in a 35-7 win. I doubt they would have made that much of a difference & Suggs played in both games. BTW, going into the Indy game the Colts were the topped ranked defense in the NFL.
This drives me crazy why can’t the skilled players just realize when they have something good and leave it alone. Ben and AB where the best 1-2 punch in the game. I get it. Pressure,fame, money and with the media stirring the pot. It’s a bad combo. I wish Pitt would take AB back on a one yr prove it contract. Let him finish his career where it began. Let bygones be bygones .
100 percent if AB stayed with the steelers him and ben would have broken a lot of records
Sucks ab left a team and city that actually cared about him.
And them Todd Haley got chased out of town, each Bell and Brown lost their minds in totally different ways, and by the time we finally built a defense, the Killer B’s were done.
It really helps when you have a lot of skilled players 😅
Simms was so disappointed when Ben threw that sixth touchdown again the Colts. Simms has always cheered for whoever the Steelers play. A little rich for somebody who can’t even speak proper English.
7:33 can we listen to this as well bryant wouldve been AMAZING if he couldve stopped smoking weed lmao
Definite wasted potential. ☹️
Haley was a genius with this offense
Well... for these two weeks, he was. His effectiveness declined quickly.
The other team as laughing at them uniforms
😂 Hamburglar unis.
Big Ben and Todd Haley should've worked that thing out. Smh
What happened man
Age and Matt Canada. 😪
I wish Todd Hailey would come back
Big Ben made me sooooo mad sometimes but it's not easy. It's the ultimate 'Team' sport. I think if you watch some of his drives you'll appreciate him a lot more. Go $teelas#1😜
Ab is the greatest reciever of all time
Antonio… is that you? 😁 AB was great for fantasy points during the regular season. He had some truly amazing moments. But he mostly disappeared during the postseason. He’s only the 4th best Steeler WR IMO, never mind all that GOAT talk.
@@mcmillenandwife he didn’t disappear in the postseason??? The jags game he had 100 yards two tds, dolphins game he had 2 tds, chiefs game he had 100 yards, bengals game he had close to 100 yards
@@tuba1379 AB was GREAT in the Miami game. But IMO, it was the only time he showed up start-to-finish in the playoffs as a Steeler. He scored in only 2 of 10 postseason games with Pittsburgh: twice vs Miami, and twice in a humiliating loss to the Jags in which the Steelers never really threatened. Padded stats don't impress me; meaningful plays do. Much of AB's production came in garbage time.
Unlike Swann, Stallworth and Ward -- all of whom elevated their performance in the playoffs -- AB underachieved, producing significantly BELOW his regular season standard.
So while I agree that AB was a truly great regular season WR, he wilted in the postseason.
@@mcmillenandwife what do you mean he was phenomenal in the jaguars game he had 100 yards and a td
Kenny cant do this or even come close to this.... hell he couldn't throw 3 TDs
Hopefully, getting free from Matt Canada's evil clutches will help Pickett. It was impossible to fairly evaluate him while he was stuck in Canada's steaming pile of an offensive scheme.
@@mcmillenandwife it won't trust me. Kenny isn't it . He doesn't have it . By the end of the year you'll be tired of him too
@@thomas2811 Yeah, I don’t think KP is the answer. Average at best IMO. That said… the kid deserves and chance without Canada. I hope he proves us wrong.
The hell happened to Ben
Age and poor health caught up to him
Age and the team is not like this anymore
Didn’t tear his elbow in half in 2019? Might be it
@@montyking2620 yup tore three elbow ligaments in his elbow
Throwing elbow
Bryant could of been a HOF if he would of just quit smokin weed….what a waste of a talent
HOF is a BOLD statement… but I agree with the sentiment. He could’ve been SO much more than he was. As you said, what a waste of talent. 😑
I’m a Steelers fan, but these are the ugliest uniforms ever. It sucks that Ben did that in that uniform which will be forever encapsulated in time haha
Hamburgler uni’s. 😂
Bring back Big Ben and Todd Haley
I would take Ben, for sure. 👍🏻
