Good QB Play?

That is being....generous at best...Wilson was 22nd in yards, Fields actually had a better comp%, had 15 TD's (even if you combine that with Fields 6 that's barely 1 TD a game), his QB rating puts him smack in the middle, and his QBR is worse.

I was referring to the 2 years when Ben was QB and put up career numbers in the regular season and the team had 12-13 wins. He also had stellar play in at least one other season the Steelers didn't make the playoffs. When the team was primed for success with the right personnel, they shit the bed in the playoffs, and it mostly had to do with bad defense.

When you lose games like 48-37 and 45-42, elite QB play was not enough.

I'm of the thought that it will never really matter if the Steelers have elite QB, top OL, elite skill talent, etc because this team will always be outcoached in January.

If anything this years Bengals should be a stark reminder of what the Steelers were for period of time.
You had Ben, AB and Lev Bell but could not win when it counted since the defense wasn't there.
