    Wasn't worried at all. It was a great block.

      I was having visions of "a knee to the helmet and a 300 pound body falling on him".

      If it weren't for the recent concussion it wouldn't have effected me.

          The block brought back memories of his block in SBXL on Randel El's reverse pass to Hines.
          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.

            It was a great block, not one of those wussie "I kind of got in your way" blocks, but it scared me. So soon after a concussion it's very easy to have a set back on a big hit.

            It was a great block and I'm thrilled he's ok...but dayum did it scare me!
            I screamed, "GREAT BLOCK!"
            He gets worse contact due to poor blocking by the o-line, so no worries here.

              I just didn't want to see a knee to the helmet. That was my greatest fear and I am so happy it wasn't realized.

                We'd all have turned into Bengals fans... (cuz, you know if Carson doesn't get hurt they win the Super Bowl instead of us....)

                  He blocks...

                  He punts...

                  He tackles...

                  He shrugs defenders off...

                  He takes chances and sometimes makes mistakes...

                  Ben is old school...just what Pittsburgh needs...
                  Actually, my post was NOT about you...but, if the shoe fits, feel free to lace that &!+€# up and wear it.

                    When Ben made that block, I came outa my chair in excitement. I guess in retrospect, I was a little worried after the fact. But, that was freakin' awsome. Looks like 'Good' Ben has decided to make an entrance into the post season. I take back any criticism of him earlier in the year.
