Ben Roethlisberger has been wildly inconsistent this year

It's a long article with lots of media embedded so I'm not gonna paste it all here. Just click the link, bitch.

This bit was interesting, though:

Though the article is heavily stats-based and therefore fairly objective, I find it interesting that the writer is a Steelers fan. Feels like this article might have been inspired by anxiety as much as observation.

Pre-planned rest days =(

Indeed. Foot will not be an issue.

Bell had to make a weed run!!!!

we'll be fine.

I know you used to be a man of more than 3ish words. LMAO

Steelers aren't a push-over. But this isn't week 4. A rookie won't be covering Antonio Brown. It will be in Arrowhead where Ben has never played that well. We'll have Houston and Ford and Hali as good as they've all been all season. In week 4 Ben had 4 passes of 30+ yards -- the Chiefs gave up 6 such plays the rest of the season. We ran into a buzzsaw that week, a week after Pittsburgh got blown out, the week that Bell returned from suspension. We are not the Dolphins who beat no one of consequence all season. Alex Smith plays lights out (compared to the regular season) in the playoffs more often than not.

It will be a battle. The Steelers will try to exploit our ILBs. I'm sure we'll be playing Eric Berry close to the line on running plays.

Chiefs are going to win...and it may not even be that close.

Bell strained his arm patting himself on the back while talking about how he is changing football.

Everybody knows Ben will be fine(or at least mostly so). The actual news there is Green. He is a pass catching threat and if he is out, it will free Berry up to do all sorts of things. Jesse James can be covered by anybody. Green would have to be accounted for. Something to keep an eye on

I've seen Ben play pretty damn shitty with injuries that weren't as hyped as this injury for him...and this injury isn't receiving huge hype as being something serious, or anything...

Just saying, it could be more serious of an issue, then they are letting on.

I watch about every Steeler game with my wife being a die-hard. They are probably my 2nd favorite AFC team, along with the Jaguars... Huge difference between good Ben and bad Ben...usually it's good Ben, but those bad Ben games are really bad... I wonder if this foot injury may result in bad Ben. Funny thing is, even bad Ben is better than Landry Jones...Jones is the QB who reminds me so much of Cassel, more than any QB I've ever seen.

None of this matters, our guys are surely preparing for the Rapist to be on point... great QBs are always able to turn it up a notch in the postseason

Ben's one of those QBs who plays much better at home. He also plays through injuries. It's not surprising he's inconsistent

**** their smoke and mirrors... Pussies

So Kelce leads all TE AND ALL WR in YAC? That's a pretty amazing stat.

KCs at the top. FML

He rapes women in public bathroom stalls and looks like he has an asshole imprinted on his chin.

**** that guy. Bring me Todd Haley's head on a stick.
