FMC: Ben Roethlisberger, QB, PIT
It’s time to honor this weekend’s “Fantasy Man-Crush” for heroics on the field of play. There are many worthy candidates out of Sunday’s action, but I would be remiss if I failed to acknowledge Ben Roethlisberger’s return to action against the Browns.
* Again, we’re looking in-between the white lines for fantasy heroism here. We’ll leave the off-field issues for discussion in other forums.
Roethlisberger threw an early interception to Joe Haden and squandered a scoring opportunity on his third pass attempt. He would later find his rhythm to complete touchdown strikes to Mike Wallace, Hines Ward and Heath Miller. Roethlisberger finished the game with 257 yards, three scores and an interception.
He next faces the Dolphins.
