Sure, tends to happen, higher passing yardage, when you're losing a game.
A lot of those postseason wins came back when he had top 1-2 defense in the league... His 1st trip to the playoffs when they won the SB back in '05 he had some very pedestrian numbersThe Steelers are 7-0 in the postseason when Roethlisberger throws for fewer than 225 yards.

Game 1 @CIN... 14/19 for 208yds, 3 TDs
Game 2 @IND... 14/24 for 197yds, 2 TDs, 1 INT
Game 3 @DEN... 21/29 for 275yds, 2 TDs
Game 4 vs SEA in the SB... 9/21 for 123yds, 2 INTs
Small point Face but Ben didn't win the SB after his 1st trip to the playoffs after the '04 season (rookie year). The SB year was his second trip to the playoffs.A lot of those postseason wins came back when he had top 1-2 defense in the league...

I got Ben going for 218 on Sunday. Pats fans, you know what that means right?
Thanks for the correction, you are correct... I full well remembered the 15-1 season but didn't think the stats that year in the postseason were as important as the full run to the SB.

I might be able to top that "strangest fact" ... Quarterbacks/teams who have big leads run the ball more ... Teams behind throw.
The Detroit Lions have won one (1) playoff game in 59 years ... is there any team that comes close to that?
