i agree... big ben was set up to succeed... the steelers weren't that bad last year (most good QBs go to 4 win teams), they have a good running game, great receivers, a very solid Oline (ours isn't nearly as good), and decent defense and special teams... they also have system stability (12 years) and he had the coach's full confidence... They put him in a position to win without having to be godlike... but his 70.1% completions and 104 passer rating means that he's still a lot better than anyone really expected.
