Wednesday, Big Ben Roethlisberger turned the big 4-0. We here at SteelerNation.com want to wish him the happiest of birthdays and take this time to show our appreciation for the Pittsburgh Steelers‘ legend and future Hall of Famer.
Roethlisberger was originally drafted 11th overall out of Miami of Ohio by the Pittsburgh Steelers in the 2004 NFL Draft. He would win the Offensive Rookie of the Year in 2004 by a land slide, after propelling the Steelers to a 15-1 record during the 2004 regular season. A two time Super Bowl champion, he finishes his career at #5 on the All-Time Passing Yards list.
Roethlisberger set an NFL rookie record in 2004 with five comeback wins in the fourth quarter, and six game-winning drives in the fourth quarter/overtime (including one playoff game). Roethlisberger has the most comeback wins (19) and game-winning drives (25) through the first seven seasons of a player’s career.[263][264] He is the only quarterback in NFL history to reach 20 comeback wins before the age of 30.Through 2021 Roethlisberger is tied for the 2nd most game-winning drives of all time (53), and is in sole possession of 2nd most game-winning drives including playoffs (57). He finished with 165 career wins as a Steeler.
Thank you for the memories, Ben! These are just some of our favorite highlights below:
