You might want to give it a bit longer. Yeah, he's won 2 SB and I'm a big fan too but let's see the remaining 75% of his career.

Come back in about 5 years..a lot can happen. As of now...nope.

True however he is off 2 a good start.

Oh if you're waiting for a GOOD argument from the starter of this thread... you're not going to see it... this is as deep as he can go. I'm surprised he actually got two syllables put together.

I think Ben has a good shot if he gets another ring or two. He's not a flashy guy with big numbers but... that's not what the Steelers want anyway... so if he keeps managing games the very solid way he does and he wins another Superbowl... I think it would be hard to keep him out...

Lebron = Gone: When is your boy Brady Queen going?

Thank you for illustrating my point.

If Ben keeps getting better like he's doing now, then it's a sure thing. i believe that he will be in the H.O.F as soon as he is eligible.

Wow, Gman, such a profound statement! Better words were never spoken.............Silence is golden?

lol

(Ben = Hall of Fame) You could say just about anything you want, Pro or Con, based on this.....Right now? Probably not ( although he did break all of Dan Marino's rookie records and actually has more wins than Tom Brady for his first 5 seasons ). However, given the talent he has around him and the organization he plays for, it's likely that Ben gets at least another SB ring or 2 ( or more ), and puts up decent numbers for enough of his career to end up with a bronze bust in Canton, OH........

Ben's a tough football player. He does what he needs to do to win. A true team approach has true team players where the numbers don't necessarily matter. What matters is being a leader and having others believe in you. When the Steelers are behind or they need a critical third down, Ben has earned his stripes so far. His ability to stay active within and outside of the pocket, to keep a play alive is "second to none." Yes, it is too early to be calling for the Hall of Fame. Just let him and the Steelers live the moment. Time will tell.

The only problem I've seen since he's been playing, is he gets sacked a lot. If they improve the offensive line and cut down on the sacks, I see no reason why he can't be even better than he already is. He is indeed a tough player.
