Eventually, the Ben Roethlisberger era would come to an end in Pittsburgh.
Unfortunately for the Steelers, head coach Mike Tomlin, and all of Steeler Nation, that era came to a screeching halt on Sunday night in the AFC Wild Card matchup between the No. 7 Steelers and the No. 2-seeded Kansas City Chiefs in a 42-21 loss.
The Steelers struggled offensively throughout the first half resulting in just two first-half first downs before finding some footing late as Roethlisberger moved into third place all time in the NFL’s postseason passing yards record book, passing the likes of San Fransisco’s Joe Montana and Green Bay’s Brett Favre.
