Ben Roethlisberger: 2 milestones to watch for today

In the Steelers Week 1 win over the New York Giants, Ben Roethlisberger’s three-touchdown, zero-interception performance moved him up a list of elite company.

Roethlisberger is now the sixth quarterback in NFL history to have 30 games in which he tossed three scores without a pick.

Should Big Ben pass for 250 yards in today’s matchup versus the Denver Broncos, he’ll pass Eli Manning for the seventh-most passing yards in league history.

But, wait — that’s not all. Steelers Nation could also see a touchdowns milestone made on Sunday. Roethlisberger will firmly hold the eighth spot for career touchdowns with one touchdown. Should he score two, he’ll tie Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers.

Considering Tennessee Titans quarterback Ryan Tannehill put up 249 yards and two touchdowns on Denver last week, these milestones are more than attainable for Big Ben today.
