    I don't know if you are being funny or not. But...That is actually news. Ben has refused to change his helmet the last 2 years. Wow...he's being a good little boy.

      There ya go, Ben!

      A modern concussion-reducing helmet for protection during the season.

      And perhaps a chastity belt for protection during the off-season.
      Steeler teams featuring stat-driven, me-first, fantasy-football-darling diva types such as Antonio Brown & Le'Veon Bell won no championships.

      Super Bowl winning Steeler teams were built around a dynamic, in-your-face defense plus blue-collar, hard-hitting, no-nonsense football players on offense such as Hines Ward & Jerome Bettis.

      We don't want Juju & Conner to replace what we lost in Brown & Bell.

      We are counting on Juju & Conner to return us to the glory we once had with Hines & The Bus.

          Here is how the Helmet Change went down:

          Tomlin: Ben I think it's time to switch to the new Helmets that helps limit concussions.
          Ben: No, I'm good.
          Tomlin: Either switch to the new helmet or get traded to the Raiders.
          Ben: Wow, look at this cool new Helmet.

              Oddly enough , my wife always makes fun of me whenever I bring up seemingly trivial things like this about Ben , or any Steeler for that matter but too me it does show a little "give" in his approach to things , and yes I remember it being a story previously.

              Mostly though , It was my attempt at getting a few hearts pumping mid-click , only to be let down by a simple "helmet" story ! Forgive me , I'm bored today at work and so sick of analyzing every angle of the Ben saga.

                        Every journey starts with a single step...just be glad his first day back he wasn't wearing that sombrero.
                        It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust & sweat & blood...

                            Look at the difference in the face masks.

                              It's surprising how that one bar across the upper lip increases the chance of a concussion!
