Things aren’t getting any better right now for Pittsburgh Steelers’ quarterback Ben Roethlisberger, who is coming off one of his worst performances of the season in a lackluster showing against the Cincinnati Bengals.
His performance reflects his plummet in the weekly QB Index put together by NFL.com analyst Gregg Rosenthal.
One week after ranking 23rd in the Index, Roethlisberger plummeted six spots — the largest drop in the index this week — to No. 29 overall, sitting behind the likes of Houston’s Tyrod Taylor, Detroit’s Jared Goff, a even Carolina’s Cam Newton.
That’s not a great group to be sitting behind, but that summarizes Roethlisberger’s ebbs and flows this season.
