There will have to be divine intervention for Steven Jackson to be a Steeler.

Yep I call BS. Don't see why and how it would happen. Maybe if no one wants him and he comes super cheap. He said on NFL network he left the rams because he wants to get 99% of all carries. Why would any RB want that and it does not fit todays NFL.

KFFL reporting it too..

Maybe we can sign him and Willie Parker and they can split carries

Seriously though, I'd rather see them take a run at Shonn Greene. That kid's a violent runner. And he and the Jets had such a down year, I bet he'd be more affordable. And he has far less mileage.

**Sugar** · 03-11-2013, 09:54 PM

They can covet all they want. How do they pay the man??

They covet Mike Wallace, Keenan Lewis and even that old bum of an OLB James Harrison, but coveting and signing are two vastly different things in 2013. I guess we're officially 2 hours away from free agency.

Potatoes. Chadman hears Jackson is a big fan of potatoes. He's got Irish in him, 15 generations back.

**SS Laser** · 03-11-2013, 09:59 PM

Again Chadman please explain to me why he would want to sign with the Steelers? He has stated he wants to be the #1,2,3 RB LOL. He said he is a great goal line back, great 3rd down back. Also that might be true. But he will be worn out or broken by the 10th game.

Lets not run the wheels off like Parker please.

Not suggesting it's an idea, before Chadman gets accused of it, but does anyone else think Parker is reluctantly retired?

I have a ton of respect for Steven Jackson but I'd prefer they try to snag Chris Ivory from New Orleans.
