My focus is on Minnesota and what we have to do to get ready. After a stagnant first half where the Steelers trailed 10-3 at halftime and the offense possessed the ball for just six minutes and 30 seconds, Roethlisberger, rebounding from the two-interception loss to the Cincinnati Bengals a week ago, helped his team […]
The way he’s moved around, made plays, we look at that quarterback rating and what he’s had there.
