PIT QB Ben Roethlisberger - Week 3, 2016 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 3 at Philadelphia
With his 259 yards and three touchdown passes last week, Roethlisberger has now thrown three TD passes in three consecutive games. Philadelphia, meanwhile, has not allowed a TD pass yet this season. Of course, they have played the Browns and Bears, two of the worst teams in the league. Comparing the passing games of those two teams to the Steelers' attack is like comparing a high school basketball game to the NBA. Roethlisberger wasn't happy with his performance last week. And Pittsburgh wants to put pressure on young Carson Wentz to make him try to get into shootout. Roethlisberger should be a strong start in this one.

PIT QB Ben Roethlisberger - Week 2, 2016 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 2 vs. Cincinnati
Weapons? Who needs all of their weapons? Apparently, not Ben Roethlisberger. He threw for 300 yards and three touchdowns with Martavis Bryant, Markus Wheaton, Heath Miller and Le'Veon Bell. In their places were Jesse James, Sammie Coates and Eli Rogers, who had nine career receptions coming into the game. Cincinnati will offer a much stiffer challenge this week. The Bengals will play their umbrella defense much the same way they did against Roethlisberger in 2015, when they limited him to 262, 282 and 229 yards with two touchdowns in four meetings. The Bengals won't give up deep passes, period. Roethlisberger is still a top start, but keep your expectations in check.

PIT QB Ben Roethlisberger - Week 1, 2016 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 1 at Washington
Roethlisberger's 328 yards passing per game last season was the third-highest total in NFL history. Washington allowed the sixth most passing yards in the NFL last season, though it did add corner Josh Norman in the offseason. The Redskins also gave up 30 TD passes last season. Roethlisberger and the Steelers will score their share of points, but might lean on the ground game against a soft Washington run defense. All of that said, look for Roethlisberger to continue his aerial assault this week. He should be a No. 1 starter.

PIT QB Ben Roethlisberger - 2016 Fantasy Football Outlook

2016 Fantasy Outlook
Roethlisberger has been a yardage hog in the past two seasons, truly meshing with what offensive coordinator Todd Haley wants to do with the football -- work the short game and set up shots downfield. Roethlisberger lost a big downfield target with Martavis Bryant's suspension for the year, but he has other weapons. He had eight 300-plus yard games in 12 outings last season and was sacked just 20 times. The offensive line is solid. The supporting cast is excellent. Roethlisberger's interceptions were up a tick last season with 16, but that's been a point of emphasis this offseason. At 34, he's still on the back edge of his prime and should be poised for another big season, provided he stays healthy. And with Le'Veon Bell back this season, Roethlisberger has his safety valve back. The schedule isn't especially daunting and because the defense is somewhat shaky, the Steelers have to keep the pedal to the metal. He should easily be a top-10 fantasy quarterback, perhaps even a top-5, in 2016.

PIT QB Ben Roethlisberger - Week 19, 2015 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 19 at Denver
Roethlisberger threw for 231 yards and a touchdown despite missing most of the fourth quarter last week. Of course, he missed that time because of a separated shoulder. But he returned to the game to lead Pittsburgh's game-winning field goal drive. Mark it down now, Roethlisberger will play this week. And typically, when he plays hurt, he's a dangerous animal. Roethlisberger threw for 380 yards, three touchdowns and two interceptions in a win over Denver last month, the only time Denver allowed a 300-yard passer this season. Don't look for that kind of effort again this week, but I'll be surprised if he's not effective even in a tough matchup.

PIT QB Ben Roethlisberger - Week 18, 2015 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 18 at Cincinnati
In two games against Cincinnati this season, Roethlisberger threw for 262 and 282 yards. He had just one touchdown in those games, as DeAngelo Williams vultured off some easy scores. Williams won't be available this time around, so the Steelers are going to have to throw it. Roethlisberger should put up some good yardage totals, but this is a tough matchup.

PIT QB Ben Roethlisberger - Week 17, 2015 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 17 at Cleveland
Roethlisberger had an off day last week, throwing for just 215 yards and two interceptions. But he came off the bench earlier this season to torture the Browns for three scores and 379 yards on a badly sprained foot. It would be shocking to see him have two bad games in a row, especially with the Steelers needing a win. Look for Roethlisberger to have a strong bounce back game.
