The Pittsburgh Steelers are hoping for a better result in their third showdown with a member of the NFL's best division tonight, as they travel to Washington for the first time in 20 years to take on the Redskins.
Ben Roethlisberger has been sacked 23 times so far this season, and the majority of those came against NFC East opponents. Last week Big Ben was sacked five times and threw four interceptions in a 21-14 loss to the New York Giants.
The Redskins are fourth in the league in time of possession (going into Week 9) thanks to efficient quarterback Jason Campbell and Clinton Portis, the NFL rushing leader. Portis may find running against the Steelers a bit more difficult since they rank third in the league in rushing yards allowed per game.
