Ben Roethlisberger Accepts Blame For Criticizing Antonio Brown 

Post#1 » by RealGM Wiretap » Mon May 20, 2019 8:50 pm

Ben Roethlisberger accepted blame for criticising Antonio Brown during the 2018 season.

\"I took some heat, and deservedly so, for some of the comments on that show and especially toward him,\" Roethlisberger told the outlet. \"I genuinely feel bad about that and I\'m sorry. Did I go too far after that Denver game? Probably ...\"

Roethlisberger expressed contrition for his post-Week 12 comments on 93.7 The Fan, including his observation that Brown should have run a flatter route on a late-game interception and that he wished he had thrown the ball to JuJu Smith-Schuster at the goal line instead.

\"That\'s the thing about media and social media, as soon as you say \'sorry\' it only goes so far. You can\'t take it back,\" Roethlisberger said about his comments. \"And I wish I could, because if that\'s what ruined our friendship and relationship, I\'m truly, genuinely sorry about that.\"
