BALTIMORE -- Three things we know about Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger today:
• He was just good enough for his team to beat the Baltimore Ravens Sunday night at M&T Bank Stadium in a game that meant everything in the AFC North Division race.
• That broken right foot he hobbled into the game with? The broken nose he had early in the first quarter from a hit by defensive tackle Haloti Ngata? He barely felt the pain. OK, he felt it plenty, but he was able to laugh about it. You always can laugh when you win a big game against your big rivals.
And ...
• He really doesn't get any protection from the NFL officials.................
..............."A hand came through my facemask and, the next thing I knew, blood was running down my face," Roethlisberger said. "I said to [referee Terry McAulay], 'He hit me in the head.' He said, 'He was just trying to tackle you.' "....................:upyours:
