The 1 extra yard does not change the fact that Roethlisberger has had accuracy issues this year with his deep passes. Speaking of Roethlisberger, he joined Jim Rome this week on his television show to talk about the Steelers 4-2 start and the preferential treatment that quarterbacks get from the referees.
