Ben wasn't exactly the reason the Steelers were winning those championships. He took a backseat to the run game and defense. 

I think I pointed this out before, but I've been a Bears and Bengals fan since 87 and going into the 2003 draft I was almost certain the Bears were going to trade up to get Carson Palmer and put him on a team that made the playoffs with Jim Miller, and would eventually make the SB with Rex Grossman.  Still, the Bears were the only team in the top 5 I think that really needed a QB and they didn't need one as badly as the Bengals did, so I wasn't surprised/disappointed when the Bengals just took Palmer themselves. They probably would have ended up with Leftwich or Grossman if they hadn't taken Palmer. Ooof.


Ok story time over.
