Antonio Brown (@AntonioBrown84) June 8, 2016While Big Ben has had close relationships with many of his receivers over the years, his rapport with Brown is special. On the field, there"s no better QB-WR duo than Roethlisberger and Brown, who have spearheaded Pittsburgh"s high octane offense over the past several years.
After breaking into the team"s starting lineup in 2011, Brown made the Pro Bowl that season while earning team MVP honors. In 2013, he began an unprecedented run of greatness, breaking the team"s single season records for catches and receiving yards, something he would repeat in 2014 and "15.
Brown"s ascension has also led to a career resurgence for Roethlisberger, who has been named to the Pro Bowl each of the past two seasons while leading the NFL in average passing yards per game last season. And now, with Peyton Manning"s retirement and Tom Brady"s upcoming suspension, Big Ben might finally get his due as one of the best quarterbacks of his era this season.
While their chemistryon the field is unparalleled, it also appears that Brown and Roethlisberger have a close bond that extends beyond the field, as the Steelers" quarterback and receiver hope to parley their strong bond into a Super Bowl run in 2016.
