vmax Posted September 25, 2013 Share Posted September 25, 2013 It's true... the reason the Steelers got blown out of the building Sunday night against the Bears comes down to one man: Big Ben, who played his worst game of the season.You wouldn't know it to look at the box score -- Roethlisberger finished 26 of 41 for 406 yards, with 2 touchdowns and 2 interceptions. But he also had two fumbles. All told, three of the turnovers accounted for 17 Chicago points. The Bears won 40-23.Roethlisberger fumbled on the Steelers' third play of the game, which led to a Bears' field goal. Three drives later, and facing a 3rd-and-6 from the Pittsburgh 29, Big Ben dropped back in a well-formed pocket and, facing little pressure, threw an off-balance pass that missed intended receiver Jerricho Cotchery. Bears safety Major Wright, staring down the Steelers quarterback as the play unfolded, intercepted the throw and scampered untouched for a 38-yard touchdown. Chicago 24, Pittsburgh 3, with nine minutes left in the second quarter.http://www.cbssports.com/nfl/eye-on-football/23823146/coach-killers-week-3-big-ben-is-killing-the-steelers He's the reason they missed the playoffs last year too.
