2005-06: Pittsburgh Steelers
Starting 13 games in his rookie season, going 13-0, Roethlisberger proved he was more than ready for the NFL.
In 2005, he started 12 games, going 9-3 and throwing for 17 touchdowns.
In his rookie season, Roethlisberger made it to the AFC Championship game but was halted by the Tom Brady-led New England Patriots.
This time, the Steelers beat the Broncos before heading to Super Bowl Xl by a 34-17 margin.
The Steelers played the Seattle Seahawks in the Super Bowl and won 21-10.
Unfortunately for Roethlisberger, he didn’t do too much to help lead them to victory outside of a rushing touchdown.
He completed just 9-of-21 passes for 123 yards and threw two interceptions. Outside of his rushing touchdown, the other scores came on a 75-yard rush by Willie Parker and a trick play involving Antwaan Randle El, someone with quarterback experience from college, on a pass to Hines Ward.
Still, the second-year man got his first-ever Super Bowl title.
2008-09: Pittsburgh Steelers
While the first Super Bowl win wasn’t a performance Roethlisberger was likely proud of, he did much better at this second crack, beating the Arizona Cardinals and Kurt Warner 27-23. Here, Roethlisberger completed 21-of-30 passes for 256 yards, one touchdown, and one interception.
Thankfully, the Steelers had the infamous 100-yard pick-six by linebacker James Harrison to give them a 17-7 lead, a score they proved to need after winning by just four.
However, with 35 seconds to go in the game, the Steelers were down 23-20 before Roethlisberger delivered perhaps one of the best throws of his career to wide receiver Santonio Holmes who had one of the best catches you’ll ever see. This throw-and-catch cemented Roethlisberger’s second Super Bowl victory.
Comparing Roethlisberger’s Rings to the Winningest Players in NFL History
With two rings under his belt, Roethlisberger certainly has a lot to be proud of, but several players have the same or more than him.
As you’ll see below, several NFL legends have four or more victories, headlined by Brady’s seven rings.
Nonetheless, you can see where Roethlisberger stands based on the table below.
NFL Conference Championship Appearances Compared to NFL Legends
While Roethlisberger has just two Super Bowl wins in three appearances, he has appeared in five AFC Championship Games, which is enough to put him up amongst the most in NFL history.
You can compare his success to others below.
While five is undoubtedly an impressive feat, two active players, Aaron Rodgers and Patrick Mahomes, are tied with him. Roethlisberger’s lone Super Bowl loss came against Rodgers and the Packers in Super Bowl XLV.
