    Colon's recovery

    Has anyone seen reports concerning his recovery. Is he playing like his old self again?

    I was very doubtful, that he would return and actually perform.

    in other news, the chiefs signed jared gaither. I wonder if he came cheaper than colon. both have injuries that bear scrutiny and can become chronic problems. But, gaither can play the left side. I'll be curious to see gaither's salary now that he has passed a physical. Can we sign max starks already and get him on weight watchers?
    Even if Bill Belichick was getting an atomic wedgie, his face would look exactly the same.

      That got me thinking, what if the young guards actually perform well on Friday is there a chance of cutting kemo, or even better trade him, and use his salary to sign Flo or Starks back for another year.

        Works for me...trade Kemo to Arizona for a mid-round pick. Re-sign Starks. Replace Kemo with Ramon Foster at LG for this year (who will likely be replaced by the impressive Keith Williams next year). Insert camp phenom Chris Scott as the start at RG. If Starks' weight is under control and his neck checks out, he could potentially go back to starting at LT, moving Jon Scott to gameday swing tackle (where I like him much better).

        Starters: M.Starks-R.Foster-M.Pouncey-C.Scott-W.Colon

        Gameday Reserves: J.Scott & D.Legursky

        Gameday Inactives (on the 53 man roster, but given a rookie redshirt unless needed due to injury): M.Gilbert & K.Williams.

        Practice Squad: K.Jolly
        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.
