Ben Roethlisberger last trip to the Super Bowl wasn’t a good trip as he would like to be, and his team won. Three years ago, Big Ben helped Pittsburgh win Super Bowl XL, but he had a passer rating of 22.6, worst ever for a winning quarterback. The MVP of that game was Hines Ward. Willie Parker had a 75-yard TD run, and Antwaan Randle El had an option pass to Ward.
Roethlisberger being a 23-year old playing in his first Super Bowl admitted that he was “overwhelmed”. This time he is older and wiser, just enjoying his time. He might not be the most accurate passer or the fastest quarterback, but he just wins. He can make a play last when you think its over and he going to be sacked, as evident by the 65-yard TD connection to Santonio Holmes in the AFC Championship game against the Ravens. No matter what kind of game he has on Sunday, he will enjoy it this time around, until the opening kickoff that is.
