The Jaguars sit alone atop the AFC South with a 3-2 record. The Steelers fall to 3-2 and currently hold a first place tie over the Baltimore Ravens-who defeated the Oakland Raiders in Oakland yesterday. It was also the second time in Roethlisberger’s career he threw two “pick-sixes.” In contrast, Roethlisberger attempted 55 passes. The 14 attempts were the fewest in the NFL since 2014. The rushing game was really the only source of offense for Jacksonville, as quarterback Blake Bortles completed only eight passes on 14 attempts, for just under 100 yards. Yet after Roethlisberger grumbled, sarcastically, Maybe I don’t have it anymore, after the stinker against Jacksonville, he showed something else against the Bengals. Meanwhile, Jaguars rookie running back Leonard Fournette provided most of Jacksonville’s offense, rushing for 181 yards and two touchdowns-including a 90 yard TD late in the 4 th quarter. All penalties commited by Ben Roethlisberger while playing Quarterback on the Pittsburgh Steelers during the 2012 season. However, the offense was quickly brought back to reality in Week 8 against the Jacksonville Jaguars as it was only able to put up 10 points at home in the 20-10 loss. Steelers WR Antonio Brown had 10 receptions for 157 yards. Two of Roethlisberger’s interceptions were returned for touchdowns by the Jaguars defense, which also held Le’Veon Bell to only 47 rushing yards on 15 carries. In Week 11 against the Tennessee Titans, he completed 30 of 45 passes for 299 yards and four touchdowns as the Steelers won 4017. He broke the MAC single-game record for passing yards in a 4841 loss against Northern Illinois on October 12 when he threw for 525 yards and four touchdowns. Roethlisberger was sacked five times in a 24-21 loss, with four sacks belonging to Harrison. In Week 5 against the Jacksonville Jaguars, Roethlisberger threw a career-high five interceptions as the Steelers lost by a score of 309. Offense was lacking for the Steelers Sunday as quarterback Ben Roethlisberger tossed five interceptions-the most in his career-in a 30-9 loss to the Jacksonville Jaguars at Heinz Field. In 2001, Roethlisberger, a redshirt freshman, led Miami (Ohio) against Harrisons Kent State squad. A closer look at Big Ben’s disastrous five-interception performance against the Jaguars on Sunday, and what it reveals about the QB.
