6 years agoPittsburgh Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger (elbow) missed his second straight practice on Thursday and is unsure if he will practice on Friday. Offensive coordinator Randy Fichtner is hopeful that backup Joshua Dobbs would be ready to go if needed for Week 2 against the Chiefs. Big Ben said he'd be fine to play this weekend in a great matchup against KC's weak secondary, but a second missed practice makes us wonder if might be less effective if he does suit up. Roethlisberger was 23-for-41 for 335 yards, one touchdown and three interceptions in the season opener. For now, we would still consider him to be a strong QB1 option.--Keith Hernandez - RotoBaller
