Bruce Arians Talks About Big Ben Being Dissed

Big Ben vs Flacco: NFL Network's Top 100

Over the past three years, NFL Network has been taking polls by players to rate the best 100 players from the previous year. I actually enjoyed the show the past couple years. Obviously, I am going to be a homer when it comes to the Steelers, but not anything over the top. This years list isn't even half way done and I am ready to stop watching.

According to the "players" Ben Roethlisberger is the 12th best QB and the 61st best player in the NFL. The only QB's he is in front of are Mathew Stafford and Colin Keapernick. HA! You have got to be joking right? I can maybe put three quarterbacks ahead of Ben: Aaron Rogers, Tom Brady, and Peyton Manning. To have guys like Andrew Luck, RGIII, Russell Wilson, Cam Newton, Matt Ryan, and Drew Brees a head of him is laughable. But lets talk about the real issue. How far ahead of Ben is Joe Flacco?

Tomas Vokoun- Game 5 Savior?

I do not believe that Tomas Vokoun is going to come into CONSOL and suddenly be a game changer for the Pens. I think he will add a fresh pair of legs and he will rest an unconfident goaltender in Fleury but , I do not that he is a complete changer.

 It is nothing against Vokoun, who has been strong this season with a 13-4 record in twenty games. It is simply the fact that regardless of how you look at Fleury this year, or last year, regular season versus playoffs, these issues go way beyond a goaltender. They go way beyond any amount of soft goals he let up, and they go way beyond the coaching staff that half of Pens fans think needs to go.

It Was a Damn Penalty, Now Get Over It.

This just in: The NHL still has no idea how to market their game to casual sports fans. Yesterday, the Pittsburgh Penguins beat the New York Islanders in overtime thanks to a Chris Kunitz power-play goal. The power-play came thanks to a holding penalty on former Pens' defenseman, now Islanders' defenseman Brian Strait, when he held Sidney Crosby. 

Since then people have lost their minds. Now the internet is full of conspiracy theories, people bitching, and of course Mike Milbury and Jeremy Roenick giving their great opinions. 

Does Beau Know Playoffs? #CupOrBust

With the Stanley Cup Playoffs just beginning I decided to choose a player on the Pens roster that could potentially gain a lot of attention. The issue with this is that the guy I want to choose may or may not have an ample amount of playing time. With that said, I chose Beau Bennett as my breakout star.

Beau has played in 26 games this year logging 3 goals and 11 assists for 14 points, not a particularly bad stat for a young guy in the NHL. I thought he had look particularly strong during the black and gold scrimmage this year but was sent back to the AHL as a result of the Pens preferring the services of Eric Tangradi.
