NFL: Big Ben after disaster:”Maybe I don’t have it anymore.”
The Pittsburgh Steelers experienced a debacle against the Jacksonville Jaguars in Week 5 – Ben Roethlisberger was particularly affected.He threw five interceptions in one game for the first time in his career, and then he hinted again at a possible career end.
“I don’t play well enough.Maybe I just don’t have it anymore.I don’t play well enough,”a visibly frustrated Roethlisberger told the assembled reporters after the game in the cabin.
The statement is undoubtedly also due to the bitter bankruptcy against the Jaguars, but Steelers fans are likely to become attentive.Background: The 35-year-old had already flirted with a possible resignation for a long time and loudly during the off-season.At the moment, it is far from unlikely that the seasoned veteran will actually be bogged down by the problem of the pads.
Since 2014, only two quarterbacks in one game have thrown five or more interceptions and no touchdown: Ryan Fitzpatrick in the pre-season and Roethlisberger against Jacksonville.
