That's the thing with the NFL is the greed amongst the skill players. the NFL was never meant to play guys a few seasons and retire off of it (especially when these players are out breaking the law and buying stupid expensive cars).

If you're talking about Roethlisberger, he makes about 6 million more per year than Brady. Ben takes in around 21M and Brady 15M. Add to that we have or had people like Lev Bell and AB wanting more and more and now you know why the Steelers are home watching the Patriots play in another Super Bowl. The Patriots bring in people that want to play for the team. The Steelers have people constantly wanting paid. Honestly the Steelers have more overall talent than the Patriots but a terrible Head coach and defensive coordinator.
