Lolley's Kickoff: Steelers, Roethlisberger look to close on a high

BALTIMORE -- It's so fitting Ben Roethlisberger's final game will come against the Ravens in Baltimore, the place where it all began back in 2004.

It's the place where he had his nose broken by Haloti Ngata, yet kept on playing. It's the place he fought off a sack attempt by Terrell Suggs to somehow throw the ball away, tossing a touchdown on the very next play to Isaac Redman to beat the Ravens. It's a place where he connected with Santonio Holmes on a 4-yard touchdown pass with Holmes falling out of the end zone and into the field of play with 43 seconds remaining to seal a 13-9 comeback win in 2008.
