With Darrelle Revis out for the New York Jets, Ben Roethlisberger has had plenty of room to operate. It doesn’t hurt that the Jets have given up the most long balls to NFL teams this season (40 yards+) and Big Ben made sure they paid to start the game.
Sammie Coates was the recipient of a long touchdown for the Pittsburgh Steelers, as he ran down the sidelines and caught the perfect pass to him.
Ben has two touchdowns on the day so far.
The bad news? For fantasy owners who have Coates in their lineup, he has dropped a handful of balls, two of which should have been touchdowns. Both slipped out of his hands and were catchable.
Roethlisberger ended the game with 380 yards on 34/47, throwing for four touchdowns. Coates led all Steelers receivers with 139 yards on 6 receptions on the day.
FINAL: PIT 31 | NYJ 13
