ARLINGTON, Texas -- Ben Roethlisberger was supposed to be the unflappable quarterback. The born winner who always made the big play in the big spot. A win Sunday would have meant a third Super Bowl title, and only four members of his profession have ever done that. Plans were being made to carve him right into that Mount Rushmore alongside Bradshaw, Montana, Aikman and Brady, and some were even putting forth the preposterous notion that a victory in Sunday night's football game might somehow offer Roethlisberger some form of "redemption" for the reprehensible offseason behavior that almost got him drummed out of Pittsburgh and the NFL last year.
And then he went out and played a rotten game, throwing two interceptions and badly mismanaging the two-minute drill at the end when he still had a chance to march down the field, win the game and put a sweet coat of varnish on his Hall of Fame resume.
So what do we do with Ben Roethlisberger now?
