It has been a nightmare start for Ben Roethlisberger and his Pittsburgh Steelers offense. Even in the Steelers' lone victory of the season against the Buffalo Bills in Week 1, Roethlisberger and the offense struggled to move the ball and put points on the board.

Things were really ugly in a 24-10 loss to the Cincinnati Bengals this past weekend, and many are now wondering if Big Ben is cooked. Well, the Steelers veteran is here to tell you that he thinks things are about to get better soon:

On the season, the Steelers are averaging just 16.7 points per game and 308.3 yards per game. Both marks rank toward the bottom of the NFL, and Roethlisberger's poor play has been a big reason why. At 39 years old, he's struggling with his mobility and his arm isn't close to what it once was, resulting in some embarrassing plays.

It doesn't help matters that Roethlisberger is also dealing with a pec injury, which is only making it even tougher on him to succeed. The Steelers quarterback has a 79.0 quarterback rating through three games and has tossed three interceptions.

Perhaps Big Ben will find his groove again and help turn this Steelers offense around. But it's certainly not pretty right now, and we'll see how long Mike Tomlin will put up with it if things don't get better soon. As much as Roethlisberger has meant to this franchise over the years, they need to know when to pull the plug if it's not working.
