When it comes to generalities, Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger has never had difficulty in taking blame. You hear him often say that he needs to play better after a loss and things of that nature. He also always deflects all praise to his teammates.
It gets a little more complicated, and he becomes a little more testy, when you talk about specific plays, for whatever reason. Even in the past two weeks, he talked about putting passes where he wanted even though they were intercepted, even insinuating that the target—Antonio Brown in both cases—was culpable.
