It’s not too often a quarterback who threw for over 350 yards and four touchdowns would be the first to give his defense a round of applause for a job well done.
Ben Roethlisberger knows it is well deserved praise. He made sure to note how important it was for the Pittsburgh Steelers’ defense to shut down the Indianapolis Colts’ offense on their first possession, Jarvis Jones picking off Matt Hasselbeck.
“I’ve never seen anything like it. What was it, three turnovers in a matter of minutes, that was crazy,” Roethlisberger told reporters after the game.
