Ben Roethlisberger
QB - PIT
Expert Note
View More NotesBig Ben is known for performing poorly on the road, but that has been more of a factor in 1pm ET starts than primetime affairs like he'll have on Monday night. Roethlisberger is coming off of a 450 yard/3 TD game, and will have to keep up with Tampa's Ryan Fitzpatrick in what should be a major shootout. He's an easy choice as a QB1 again this week.

Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger completed 39 of his 60 passes for 452 yards and three touchdowns in his team's 42-37 loss to the Chiefs in Week 2.
Fantasy Impact
Roethlisberger also added a rushing touchdown in a game with plenty of offensive fireworks. While the Steelers didn't get the win, fantasy owners surely feel better about Roethlisberger after a slow Week 1 performance. The team will travel to Tampa Bay in Week 3 for a Monday night showdown with the Buccaneers. Roethlisberger will be a rock-solid QB1 in that contest.
