Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger isn't exactly fine with losing to the New England Patriots, but is certainly ready to move on from it.

“You know what, the great and crazy thing about all that is it was last week and we can move on now,” Roethlisberger said, via ESPN.com. “We don’t have to sit and dwell and have hindsight and 20/20 vision or whatever else they call it. … [The Patriots game] wasn’t the last one of the year. It wasn’t the playoff game where we’re having the final meetings and that stuff. We get to move on and play another game this week against a really good opponent at their place.”

He isn't wrong. Losing to the Patriots did not end Pittsburgh's season. Shocking, I know, but sometimes a team can lose a game and it might not mean anything in the grand scheme of things.
