Ben Roethlisberger is an excellent quarterback and a terrible fighter — that’s what we learned on Sunday against the Browns.
Ben Roethlisberger’s fighting technique is flopping like a dead fish
Sweep the leg!
James Dator has been covering a wide range of sports for SB Nation for over a decade, with a special focus on the NFL.
Browns lineman Emmanuel Ogbah shoved over Ben like he was a sack of potatoes, which Roethlisberger emulated perfectly. Then he went for the Karate Kid technique of ... sweeping the leg.
Well, kind of. It was more a halfhearted lunge. Like a seal trying to enter water and landing back on the ice. He didn’t ever try to swat with his arm or anything, he just dove head-first and hoped.
After the game, Antonio Brown jokingly went to Roethlisberger’s defense.
The Killer B’s gotta stick together.
