    Tomlin PC

    Injuries, Ben will play, he has no symptoms, but if he shows any, Tomlin said they will re-evaluate.

    Batch- Is having surgery to put a plate in his wrist. Out 2-4 weeks.

    Troy- questionable

    Kemo- Out

    Davis- should be back this week

    Kirchke continues to work on calf.

    It looks like we'll see some starters on ST.

    Tomlin said he is happy with Dixon's progression and IF they have to start him, they will

    Kemo out is bad. Haloti Ngata is a monster for the Ravens and not sure Foster can handle him. The one thing we know is if Foster is starting at LG that is the lane they will be attacking all night long.

      At least Suggs is out.....that in itself should help.

        That is very, very bad. Is Foster going to be the fill-in, or will they use Legursky? I know that Foster is the first guy off the bench, but with his versatility, will he keep that role with Legursky sliding into Kemo's spot?

        Either way, this is a big loss.

          Did anybody else notice that on one of the first few plays (it might have been the first) that Foster was in on we had a 3rd and short. Arians calls for a run over left guard and we get stopped cold. WTF was he thinking? Why run over new guy? I'm not an Arian's hater but the words that came out of my mouth on that play made my wife blush.
          As many on this site think ... The Rooney's suck, Colbert sucks, Tomlin sucks, the coaches suck, and the players suck.

          but Go Steelers!!!

            I noticed later, though, that we ran to the right with Foster pulling and leading Mendenhall through the hole like Kemo usually does. That was promising.
            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.

              Cool! That is promising. I just thought it was a stupid play call to run over a guy that just comes into the game on a critical 3rd down.

                  Lets hope Ramon can play and becomes a steal. we could use one at OL.

                    I am not expecting miracles just hoping that they can keep Ben from getting killed in this game. Between the tackles running will be hard to come by this week. Would love to see Logan on a sweep...have we seen that this year yet?...guess that might be asking for a little too much from Arians.
