        Anywhere he likes!!



        Seriously though- if he doesn't get the interest he wants, Chadman would look to bring him in as the #1 back-up across the LB's- spell Farrior, Timmons, Harrison or Woodley. Keep him somewhat fresh, let him blitz as necessary, let him cover where required...

          I loved the guy when he was a Steeler but there is no way Joey Porter's ego would allow him to be satisfied with a backup role. Also, as a backup he would need to be able to contribute on special teams, which I highly doubt he would be willing to or able to do at this point in his career.

            On the bench in case Silverback or Woodley get injured.

              ok-

              in all seriousness, I love peezey's attitude, but I just don't see him back in Pitt.

              Where is he going to be???

              Maybe Green Bay-

              Maybe Washington.

              where else could he end up???

                        The other side of the world is close? Here in the States, we have an expression about digging a hole to China...do you folks ever talk about digging a hole to London? :P

                        I think Chadman has just been talking about bringing back baby kangaroos this whole time.
                        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.

                          Isn't Australia just UK South? :P

                          I guess I concluded UK from a previous post you made which seemed to indicate that you follow the EPL. I guess I ASSuMEd.

                            He will end up getting released and the Dolphins will absorb the hit in the uncapped year. We will see alot of teams bailing out of contracts when the time hits. I would take Joey back if he wants to be a reserve. That is why he wants out of Miami...So most likely it won't happen. So...Sometime in the near future...We will take him back on a 1 year vet contract...So he could retire a Steeler days later. The Steelers owe him that.

                              I see him going to Arizona to play for Whiz
                              As many on this site think ... The Rooney's suck, Colbert sucks, Tomlin sucks, the coaches suck, and the players suck.

                              but Go Steelers!!!
