Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger failed to throw for a touchdown in Sunday's Week 15 game against the Tennessee Titans, but he did rush for one–marking his first rushing TD in three years.

Of course, Big Ben was quite delighted with his accomplishment, and that was quite clear in his postgame presser.

“I thought I broke the Heinz all time rushing record,” Roethlisberger said of the epic moment, per Brooke Pryor of ESPN.

For what it's worth, Ben Roethlisberger is far from breaking the record. The honor still goes to Willie Parker, who has 645 carries for 2904 yards and 14 touchdowns in the Steelers' home field (per Basketball Reference). But hey, all jokes aside, at least the veteran QB decreased the gap by one yard and one TD!

Roethlisberger scored his first rushing TD since 2018 in the third quarter to cut the Titans' lead. It was a walk-in TD, with Big Ben muscling his way to the end zone.

It was also exactly the boost the Steelers needed to complete their come-from-behind win after falling 13-3 in the first half. They now improved to 7-6-1 in the standings to keep their playoff hopes alive.

The Steelers are in a close fight in the AFC North, with the division-leading Baltimore Ravens just at 8-5 and the Cleveland Browns and Cincinnati Bengals ties at 7-6.
