Ben Roethlisberger ok in Week 5 victory at Jacksonville

It wasn't pretty, but the Steelers pulled it out Sunday afternoon. Roethlisberger put out a line of 26/36 for 273 yards and a score to backup tight end Michael Palmer at the goal line just before half.

Fantasy Impact:

It wasn't the breakout performance of the week that a lot of analysts predicted, but it was okay. Roethlisberger missed on several throws he usually makes but the team as a whole just didn't give their A-game this afternoon, as they often play down to their competition. Ben Roethlisberger will be a low-end QB1 next week, though, as the Steelers take on a Cleveland secondary that keeps getting torched, despite their talent level.
