Pick-sixes and boo birds: Ben Roethlisberger, Steelers offense hit dangerous low

PITTSBURGH -- The sheen of the Pittsburgh Steelers' offense is long gone.

The Jacksonville Jaguars defense ran that out of the end zone -- twice -- thanks to pick-sixes of Ben Roethlisberger, who became the first Steelers quarterback since Mark Malone in 1987 to throw five interceptions in a game.

The boos from the the Heinz Field crowd were so persistent Sunday that Steelers offensive players were left staring at the jumbotron over and over, wondering what the heck just happened on each maligned play.

When they weren't watching Leonard Fournette streak downfield for 90 yards in the final minutes.
