The Video
Former Steeler Rocky Bleier wrote: "Ben- There are not enough words in a tweet to do you justice. You gave of yourself over and over again for the love of the game, the love of Pittsburgh,and the love of this Steelers team. There will never be another like you and I am looking forward to your future."
The Accomplishments
Another person wrote: "A really under appreciated QB in this glory age of QBs over the last two decades. Ben was often placed behind Brady, Manning, Brees and Rodgers in the top 5 of QBs of the last 20 years which is fair but, I'd like to say he was right there with them, not a distance 5th."
Record-Setter
One person tweeted: "He had a good run, now it's time to hang it up and be a family man, who knows maybe become a coach somewhere in a couple years.... Good luck Ben and thank you."
Won't Be the Same
Another fan tweeted: "I remember watching slash and having a poster of him but I was 14 when Big Ben started and that's mostly what I know. 10-14 I watched here and there but I didn't really start watching until 02-03. I stopped at a stop sign and cried a bit."
New Era
One fan said: "Great QB HOF 1st ballot. He never had a losing season and 2× champ. I don't have to say more."
More Records
One fan said: "Roethlisberger was a true warrior. Congratulations on a very outstanding career. Glad to see him exit the game as I am a lifetime Browns fan. Enjoy your retirement Ben!"
Off to Canton
And this fan said: "The best matchups the Jags had was with Pittsburgh. Ben was a competitor that didn't give up. Our teams played down to the wire in each game. Thanks all you have to the sport."
