Roethlisberger has already begun training for next season with a renewed commitment level. \"I feel like I'm coming into the prime of my career, what I hope will be my best years,\" said Roethlisberger. \"So I want to make sure I'm ready to go.\" With his physical style of play, it is worth watching how quickly Roethlisberger, who turns 30 in three weeks, recovers from further injury.","date":"Wed Feb 15"},"fullName":"Ben Roethlisberger","lastPoints":8,"pointsSEASON":206,"seasonOutlook":{"outlook":"Fantasy owners who drafted Big Ben in '10 at a discount because of his four-game suspension got what they were looking for. Roethlisberger finished the year sixth among QBs in fantasy points per game. His per-game TD rate was on the low side but was offset by a low interception rate, and his 8.2 yards per attempt indicates he's still willing to absorb a big hit to go down the field. Looking ahead, we're still talking about a relatively run-oriented offense (the Steelers featured the sixth-most run-heavy offense in the NFL last year), and Big Ben is still an injury risk because of all the shots he takes. We expect the banged-up Steelers offensive line to be healthier in '11, but what about the foot injury that bothered Roethlisberger? He's a tough guy and a winner, but not quite fantasy elite.","seasonId":2011,"date":"Mon Jun 20"},"positionRank":13,"totalPoints":206}
