If it’s the end of the road for Big Ben, then he had a hell of a career and finished his final home game with a win over a rival.
It really doesn’t get much better than that.

While there’s been no official announcement on what Big Ben will do, I think his reaction in the video above says it all.
If he planned on attempting to continue playing, he wouldn’t be on the verge of tears.
