Roethlisberger placed in concussion protocol

Baldwin caught a crossing route on third-and-10 at the 20, broke two tackles and raced for the clinching score.

Doug Baldwin made a clutch touchdown catch for the Seahawks to notch his second one of the day, and he gave the Seahawks the lead in the fourth quarter.

It’s not particularly hard to fault those who felt that way after a game in which the Seattle defense allowed 456 passing yards to Ben Roethlisberger, a franchise record for passing yards by an opponent. ESPN also reported that Roethlisberger’s symptoms have subsided since the diagnosis, but will still be required to go through all stages of the league’s concussion protocol in order to play next week’s game against the Indianapolis Colts (6-5).

I see the Seahawks closing 4-1 to finish 10-6 and enter the playoffs as the wild-card team nobody wants to face. There’s a lot of concern around – that was a big game we went through, monstrous output by Ben. After dropping a pair of prime-time games, the Bengals (9-2) were back in sync against a team that struggles to score.

With AFC North rivals the Cincinnati Bengals pulling into a three-game lead over Pittsburgh and the now third-seeded Denver Broncos doing the same, the Steelers’ most realistic chance of making the playoff is as the sixth seed.

The Rams (4-7) have dropped four in a row. “But five touchdowns and 100 yards rushing is unacceptable”.

Pittsburgh’s Roethlisberger went 36 for 55 with a touchdown and two interceptions.

Only three of the game’s 69 points came in the first quarter, with Chris Boswell breaking the deadlock on a 44-yard field goal.

SANTA CLARA, Calif. – Carson Palmer ran for a goahead 8-yard touchdown with 2:28 left and tumbled after spiking the ball, and Arizona squeaked by San Francisco. It was the Cardinals’ fifth straight win and first road victory in the series since September 2008.

Couple that with the earlier TD off of the Jones interception and that was 19 points off turnovers. Brown, with Sherman following him all over the field, caught six passes for 51 yards. Wheaton has largely been a disappointment since being a third-round pick in 2013, but the soon-to-be free agent showed why the Steelers used a valuable pick on the Oregon State product. Rawls averaged 5.1 yards per carry in the first half, but Pittsburgh’s run defense was far better in the second half. The Seahawks are not known for their passing offense, but Wilson has often been an efficient quarterback and above-average leader for the Seahawks. “Have we wanted to throw more touchdowns?”

In Russell Wilson’s first three years as quarterback, Seattle tight ends averaged 54 catches on 86 targets for 714 yards and six touchdowns. DeAngelo Williams had just eight carries, although he was significant in the pass game with seven catches for 88 yards.

Seattle came right back on its next possession to reclaim the lead at 14-10 when Wilson threw his second touchdown pass, 12 yards to Kearse. We feel like we got a win over a very, very good football team, and that’s why we take this one in high regard. But officials flagged B.W. Webb for holding on the other side of the field. But, just like the last two years, they certainly can do it. Down five points with just three minutes to play, Mike Tomlin elected to kick a field goal that was weird not only for its strategic value at that point in the game, but because Tomlin had been extremely aggressive with a fake field goal in the first half.
