After completing 15-of-19 passes for 168 yards in a 17-0 win against the Buffalo Bills on Saturday night, quarterback Ben Roethlisberger looks ready for the start of the regular season.
But Steelers coach Mike Tomlin said Roethlisberger will still see some action Thursday night in the preseason finale against the Carolina Panthers, even with the chance that Big Ben could get hurt.
Roethlisberger, Charlie Batch, and Mike Reilly combined for just six incompletions in 31 pass attempts versus the Bills.
The Panthers are having trouble stopping the run. Against the New York Giants and Miami Dolphins, the run defense was exposed. The Ravens rushed for only 118 yards Saturday, but it was more because they were picking apart Carolina's secondary.
After an uninspired performance against the Ravens, the starters are likely to see some work against the Steelers with time running out to correct numerous problems.
