If you want to prepare for your post-career (analyst), fine. Step aside and make room for the Sharknado!

    I'm probably overreacting as usual, but it is something that bothered me today, seeing Clark on the TV seemingly all day.
    Ryan's best playing days may be behind him, but he's easily one of the best/most articulate speakers on the team, possibly in the NFL. His comments are generally knowledgeable and intelligent, and rather less canned than Mike-we-embrace-everything-Tomlin's. I don't mind hearing him.

    Also, I think he's preparing for his post playing career..

      Shamarko isn't a FS. He was drafted to be our future SS.

        If Ben did this, almost everyone here would be going nuts. When Clark does it, he gets a pass. Considering the team is 0-4, no player should be going on media tours even if it is the bye week.

          I haven't heard anybody complaint about Ben's weekly radio show.

              That doesn't preclude him from playing Free Safety...
              Actually, my post was NOT about you...but, if the shoe fits, feel free to lace that &!+€# up and wear it.

                If anyone is going to replace Clark, it'll be Golden... not Shamarko.

                  Yeah Ryan, let's run the ball and get the defense on the field.

                  Funny, Tomlin did that BOTH times to open the last two games and before the offense saw one blade of grass? Your unit gave up points.

                  Twice the Steelers offense scored in London.

                  Twice you and your ilk went back on the field after those scores by your offense and gave the points right back (This after you gave up 10 points on your opening two drives to Matt freaking Cassell).

                  If Tomlin has any backbone left? He should suspend him a week for being a divisive jackass.
                  I know what you mean. If the defense had played well the entire year we would be 1-3. If the offense had played well the entire year we would be 3-1. Hmmm ...
                  As many on this site think ... The Rooney's suck, Colbert sucks, Tomlin sucks, the coaches suck, and the players suck.

                  but Go Steelers!!!

                    The offense has Ben making $100+ million...

                    They have highly paid skill position players...

                    They have many premium draft picks spent...

                    The offense gets plenty of resources...

                      You want more points? Give the offense more money.
                      How many turnovers does the offense have in the same time period?

                        I believe that would be 41

                            So is the fact that my roster, including me, you (phillyesq), my Filipino mailman, the hot supermarket checker girl, my six year-old niece, my 200+ lb. SIL, the ex-GF, and my (4) deceased grandparents... have as many takeaways as the vaunted "Steeler D".
                            I wasn't hired for my disposition.

                                What are you smoking? Can I have some? They let their best WR go in FA, behind Miller they have bums as TEs, bums as RBs behind Bell, and the two tackles they drafted are looking like busts.

                                Let me guess, you think this team is really good and really well-managed and the only thing bringing it down is Ben, right?

                                I haven't heard anybody complaint about Ben's weekly radio show.
                                Well you know, Ben's so worried about his own stats and gunning it just to piss off Art II too worry about his show.
