Despite inaccuracies, the Steelers can still sling the rock deep

The Pittsburgh Steelers, and more importantly Ben Roethlisberger, have been known as a big play team. A team who is capable of burning you deep at a moment’s notice.

While receivers like Mike Wallace and Antonio Brown have been getting past defenders for the black-and-gold in the past decade, in 2017 the team lacked in this department — especially early in the season.

Fans were wondering if it was a timing issue, the receivers not doing what they were supposed to, or Roethlisberger just ‘losing it’ a bit as an aging quarterback.
