The Drive: On Jordy Nelson, Tricenarian

In Week 14 of last season the Oakland Raiders upset the Pittsburgh Steelers. This reduced the chance the Steelers would make the playoffs from 70% to 56%. The major factor in Pittsburgh losing was an injury sustained by Ben Roethlisberger. The full extent of this injury did not manifest until halftime. Roethlisberger completed a touchdown pass to Juju Smith-Schuster with 10 seconds remaining in the first half but did not initially take the field after halftime. This injury did not stop Roethlisberger from returning eventually and did not cost Roethlisberger any more regular season snaps.
