I knew it was coming....but man.

 

[t-man]

That makes it official. Now begins the search for the replacement. Let's hope it doesn't take another 20 years.

Glad he did it now and didn't let it drag on.

Thanks Ben! Now it feels real. Huge shoes that won't be filled anytime soon.

Thank you Ben for so many amazing memories.

I just hope that his decision to move on wasn't mostly driven by our ineffective and incompetent coaching staff.

He was done Bobeatch you know like most of your user names after a short interval. Some times it is just that time to move on buttercup.

My name is Tom.

It's just sad to think that he could have had another 1 to 2 SBs if we had a coach that was actually qualified for the job. And don't even get me started on Canada's supposed "complex" offensive schemes. That incompetent **** would have been enough to cause anyone to retire.

Bummer. Not sure I will be too much of an active fan anymore. Steelers always. Today's nfl? Not so much. He was old school.

It came 3 weeks ago. Heinz field gave him a proper standing ovation. Or was it 4 weeks ago? Fack I need to start sleeping more than 6 hours lol

Ok. Not gonna lie. This made me chuckle.

Thank ya Tomlin daDouche. Lol

Don’t care who you are. Show some class. Tomlin bashing not in this goodbye Ben thread.

Thanks for the memories Ben. To think I have watched your career for a touch over a third of my life, it will definitely be weird to watch the Steelers with out you. A true warrior. And I too am glad you didn’t drag this out. It was time.

This is not the birthday present I wanted for my 50th (b-day on Sunday)...

But, we knew it was coming so there's that.

Ben, thank you, thank you, thank you for all the years of effort and hard play. You spoiled us.

Thanks for all of the great memories Big Ben.

ESPN radio said Ben never started a game where the team was already eliminated from the playoffs.

The Ravens even had a classy comment to the announcement video. They are our most hated rival, but I have appreciated their class with Ben's retirement.

Respect to an all-time rival

Ben defied the TB12 Method in favor of the “Throw Some Ice On It” method his whole career, and ended up an all-time-great with 6 Pro-Bowls and 2 Super Bowls. There’s more than one way to bake a cake!
