Roethlisberger outplays Flacco
One of the big reasons that Pittsburgh beat Baltimore on Saturday to reach the AFC Championship game was the advantage they had at quarterback. Ben Roethlisberger outplayed Joe Flacco and that was the big difference in the game. The Ravens led 21-7 at the half but not because of anything that their offense did. A pass interference penalty and two big plays by the defense set up all three touchdowns. Baltimore didn’t get those big plays in the second half and to make matters worse, they turned the ball over. Roethlisberger threw for 226 yards and two touchdowns including a big 58-yard pass to rookie Antonio Brown with less than two minutes left that set up the game winning TD. Flacco was 16 of 30 for 125 yards. Baltimore was so pathetic on offense that they failed to gain 100 yards in the first three quarters. The difference was Roethlisberger. He simply finds ways to win and he always beats the Ravens. Roethlisberger is a Super Bowl winning quarterback and his talents were on display as the Steelers beat the Ravens.
