titanthakur Posted December 25, 2020 Report Share Posted December 25, 2020 https://www.si.com/nfl/titans/news/tennessee-titans-pittsburgh-steelers-nfl-ben-roethlisberger-mike-munchak Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Ben Roehtlisberger referenced the Tennessee Titans’ continuing quest to claim the Vince Lombardi Trophy in an attempt to motivate his own team this week. The Titans, founded in 1960 as the Houston Oilers, are one of 12 NFL franchises that have never won a Super Bowl. The closest they came was in 1999, when they reached Super Bowl XXXIV but lost 23-16 to the St. Louis Rams in a memorable finish. Roethlisberger pointed to one of the most prominent people in Oilers/Titans history to try to create a sense of urgency in his own locker room during a players-only meeting. “We used Coach Mike Munchak as an example, a guy that spent 30-plus years in the NFL playing and coaching and was only a part of one Super Bowl,” Roethlisberger said. “I just wanted guys to understand and to reiterate how important this time of year is. "Playoffs aren't guaranteed to anybody. It wasn't a players-only panic meeting. … This is a meeting that we felt was necessary moving forward into the postseason." We need Steelers to win this week but I wouldn't hate if Roethlisberger got sacked and beat up a few times. Scummy guy. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
XAEA12 Posted December 25, 2020 Report Share Posted December 25, 2020 I think it's a great point. Munchak is a hall of famer and still the ultimate prize eludes him. He's saying they need to seize the opportunity. You made me stick up for Ben Roethlisberger. Don't ever do that again Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oiler FANatic Posted December 25, 2020 Report Share Posted December 25, 2020 He points out when Munchak finally reached his one and only Super Bowl 20 years ago (as a player or coach), showing how difficult it is to get there for most. Yet here we are all these years later. It took the team 34 years just to make it to a Super Bowl, thanks in large part to Jeff Fisher, who is widely despised here. After winning a franchise-best 147 games (no one else won more than 59), last year was the first time since he left that the team has come close to reaching another SB.

He mentioned a couple games back post interview that maybe it was time for him to hang it up so with that being said I don't care what kind of rally or trash talk he has to say about us because it's in his mind he's not getting the job done .On top of that with their run game !!! struggling right now you can't expect to win games passing all the time especially when you have a struggling QB mentally and physically down the stretch!!! GO TITANS!!! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
