Big Ben-Pro Bowl? - pally - 01-21-2016 Interesting that with those "torn ligaments" in his throwing shoulder Big Ben has yet to pull out of the Pro Bowl. You would think he would be far more interested in healing that horrible injury than risk further injury in a meaningless game. Maybe we should rename him "the boy who cried wolf" RE: Big Ben-Pro Bowl? - Tiger Teeth - 01-22-2016 (01-21-2016, 09:29 PM)pally Wrote: Interesting that with those "torn ligaments" in his throwing shoulder Big Ben has yet to pull out of the Pro Bowl.

Anyone who has ever torn a ligament in their shoulder can tell you Ben is full of crap. You can't lift you arm to put on a shirt, and there's no way you can throw a football. RE: Big Ben-Pro Bowl? - jason - 01-22-2016 It's interesting that he's a Pro Bowler period... He wasn't all that great this year.

A lower QBR than Alex Smith? I was wrong. Ben was pretty good this year. RE: Big Ben-Pro Bowl? - GMDino - 01-22-2016 (01-22-2016, 08:00 PM)jason Wrote: 11 fewer TDs, and 3 more picks than Derek Carr?

Uh huh. RE: Big Ben-Pro Bowl? - StLucieBengal - 01-23-2016 Jen shouldn't be in the pro bowl . Not this year. He was too careless with the ball.... Moreso than usual.

Dang...I forgot how rookies post in smack talk. I thought Ben was just a game manager?

Ben deserves the PB nomination, but mostly because of who he is, not what he did this year I though I heard Ben pulled out and Eli took the spot.

Was I commenting on how some folks are kind of lame when it comes to smack talk? Yes? Emojis make me look like a 12 year old? As opposed to a "Space Invader Zim" gif? Better let the moderators know to remove them so you can tell the men from the girls.

This is not the smack forum RE: Big Ben-Pro Bowl? - Johnny Cupcakes - 01-23-2016 Everyone knows that passer rating is the ultimate gauge of how well a QB is doing. It combines the 4 stats that really matter: Completion Percentage, Yards, Touchdowns, and Interceptions, and puts them all into one number that tells you most of what you need to know. It's pretty hard to make a legit argument that Ben had a better year than Andy, but I don't fault Steelers fans for trying.

Humans make them. Tell Kain about the smack thing. Or you implying that is why the smack is bad? Because he knows it is not the smack forum?

Yet that is not the first thing used on the NFL.com site.

TD to Int ratio though is a very big one.. that is the one area where Ben performed very badly... his passing rating was decent though.. the others above him in this list when you rank them in passing yards except for Brady the four people ranked above are from losing teams.. which tends to make sense since they are usually behind and have to pass. If i was ranking by importance I would put TD to InT first, with passing rating second. and the area where I would also consider QBs is how team did in the regular season. Ben had a good year,, I have no problem giving him props for a good year.. Dalton had a superior year without a doubt and was in line still for MVP consideration before he got hurt. |
