There were certainly plenty of fans on both sides of the fence when it came to the decision about whether or not to allow Ben Roethlisberger to return for one final season in Pittsburgh. Technically, the former star quarterback was under contract for one more season, but in order to make this happen, Ben took a pay cut to stay with the team.
