Download or read book Ben Roethlisberger written by Jackson Carter and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2020-11-27 with total page 56 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Big Ben" Roethlisberger led his Pittsburgh Steelers to a Super Bowl win against the Seattle Seahawks in 2006 when he was a mere 23 years old-the youngest pro quarterback ever to do the deal. Only three years later, he aired it out and won the biggest Bowl again versus the Arizona Cardinals. The second time around was a lot tighter for Ben and tense Steeler fans as he waited until literally the last minute to find Santonio Holmes for the clinching score. But don't think that Ben only plays football. He's got his own line of barbeque sauce, "Big Ben's BBQ", and started a foundation to support police and fire departments and their special K-9 dogs in the U.S. He's busy finding ways to improve the quality of life for both Ohio and Pennsylvania inhabitants. "Big Ben" is definitely not a misnomer: the man stands 6'5" (1.96 m) and tips the scales at 240 pounds (109 kgs.). It's not completely clear if this natural size comes from Ben's work in the weight room, an extra trip to the BBQ pit with a bottle of his special sauce in hand, or a bit of both. Now at age 38, still in the Steel City, he continues to break records and looks "better than ever" doing it. Interestingly enough, Ben has become a spokesperson for Swiss Roots, a campaign set up to help Americans of Swiss origin reconnect with their ancestors and heritage in Switzerland. After researching his own family history that can be traced to Geissbühl, a small farming community in the municipality of Lauperswill (not far from Bern), Roethlisberger and his family finally enjoyed a trip to stunning Switzerland to take in the sights in May, 2006.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ben Roethlisberger is a person who can be viewed in two very different lights. In one light, he is a true professional football player.

In a different light, people may see an immature man who defiantly refused to wear his helmet when he rode his motorcycle. They may see a man who has been accused of rape on multiple occasions. They may see someone who is not nearly as committed to the game of football when he is not playing. Like many people, there is a lot to Ben Roethlisberger.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What is an elite NFL QB and what separates that player from the others? One answer is the coach they share. In the recent history of the biggest game on earth, one man is the common thread that connects several of the very best in the sport: Peyton Manning; Ben Roethlisberger; Andrew Luck; and the resurgent Carson Palmer. That coach is Bruce Arians. A larger than life visionary who trained under the tutelage of Bear Bryant, Arians has had a major impact on the development and success of each of these players. For proof beyond the stats, go to the sources. "Bruce is gonna love you when you need some loving, but he's gonna jump on you when you're not doing right." -- Peyton Manning "He coaches the way players want to be coached." -- Ben Roethlisberger "He made players comfortable around him and let everybody have their own personality. He didn't force anybody to be someone they weren't. It may sound a little corny or cheesy, but there's merit to that. I felt comfortable being myself and I felt he had my back." -- Andrew Luck "We're a resilient group. It trickles down from the head coach. I think good teams, really good teams, and hopefully great teams take on their coach's mentality. I think that's what B.A. brings . . . " -- Carson Palmer Known around the game as the 'quarterback whisperer', Arians has an uncanny ability to both personally connect with his quarterbacks and to locate what the individual triggers are for that player to succeed. No two quarterbacks are the same. And yet with Arians they always share success. In this book Arians will explain how he does it.
