Roethlisberger & the Steelers Do it Again

Wow! What a game. It's not the best football I've seen from the Steelers this year, but when it got down to seconds they played smart and got the job done - beating the Jacksonville Jaguars 17-16 and improving their record to 11-1.

The game was just as exciting as the score implies. Back and forth with the scores, with the Steelers up by one point going into the fourth quarter. The Jaguars then stepped up the excitement when Josh Scobee made a 36-yard field goal with only 1:55 left to give the Jaguars the lead.

Ben Roethlisberger and the Steelers weren't done yet, however, engineering a last-minute drive to set up a 37-yard field goal by Jeff Reed with 18 seconds left on the clock. The Jaguars, who needed this win to support their bid for the final AFC wild card slot, weren't done fighting either. Scobee took center stage again, just missing a 60-yard field goal at the final buzzer.

The big win gave Roethlisberger the all-time rookie quarterback record for wins in a season (10 straight), and brought the Steelers within one game of the team-record 11 straight wins, set in 1975.
