Ben Roethlisberger Coming Quotations

When you think about the Super Bowl, you imagine yourself coming and playing your best football, and it wasn't that way.

There are still some throws it's still painful with and I don't quite have the zip I normally do or the spin on the ball but it's coming along and hopefully we'll get it healed up soon.

I was trying to buy as much time as I could on third-and-long. I saw Hines make a move and cut it to the right side. He made a great play coming back for it.

You don't expect that from a guy like that. Obviously, he was a little frustrated. But I don't remember complaining. It's just unfortunate coming from a guy like that.

We knew coming in that we wanted to throw the ball more, ... It's like a building block for things that we are going to have to be able to do down the road.

That's kind of the interesting thing. This is going to be a boxing match between two fighters who've never fought each other. Will they dance around a while to feel each other out? Or will it be a slugfest with both teams coming out swinging?

Everyone always said coming into the end of the season that if we had to throw the ball, if someone stops the run, then we won't be able to win. But in the last couple games, we have won by throwing the ball. We can prove that we are a balanced offense.

I'm going to tell him not to say too much. When Jerome starts talking you get teary-eyed because of how much he means to you. We don't want to have a bunch of guys crying coming out of the locker room.

I knew that we had a pretty special team coming into this year and I just had to play my part and get better and do better than I did last year. The development has been a big thing. I've come a long way. We've come a long way as a team and I think that is a credit to the coaching staff and the players. We believe in what we do.

I don't want to start getting teary-eyed. We don't want a bunch of guys crying coming out of the locker-room.
