Even for quarterbacks as great as Russell Wilson and Ben Roethlisberger, you will have low moments if you play long enough. Wilson had one such moment in a crushing loss to the Baltimore Ravens, preventing the Steelers from securing the division.
The Steelers have survived on creating turnovers and protecting the football, but not on Saturday. They forced multiple fumbles, but couldn’t recover them. A Pick-six by Russell Wilson even spoiled Minkah Fitzpatrick’s first interception in nearly two years. It was just that kind of day—the sort of day Roethlisberger remembers. He defended the fumble, but he knew the throw was one every quarterback would want back.
