    Is Heath ready to go?

    I saw Heath early last game... then I didn't hear from him for the rest of it? Just wondering if he is ready or was that more of a motivational appearance?

    I think they had him on a pitch count to ease him back in to game shape. He'll probably get a little more work this week and then be back full time after the bye. Just a guess.

      I expect something similar from Le'Veon this week. Give him a handful of touches here and there this week to get his feet wet, then two weeks of practice before unleashing him as the Bellcow.
      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.

        Hopefully he plays like a demon when he is unleashed and we can call him the Hellcow.

          I'd say it was more get-his-feet-wet, more than anything else. And TBH, I wouldn't expect any more than 80% Heath until maybe Week 12 and beyond. In whatever degree we do get him, it is leaps and bounds better than a perfectly healthy Paulson.

            Did Paulson play much last week? I saw a lot of DJ but don't remember much Paulson.
            As many on this site think ... The Rooney's suck, Colbert sucks, Tomlin sucks, the coaches suck, and the players suck.

            but Go Steelers!!!
