Ben sprained MCL out 4 weeks

[antdrewjosh]

All of a sudden Gilbert becomes the key player on the OL.

That's worrisome.

Why haven't heard his name all year. Probably our best OL so far

Steeler got hit with karma for signing a guy like Vick

The butthurt is strong with this one.

 

[Black & Gold Bleeder]

which brings up the next thing.. Who are they dropping to bring in Landry Jones. ? Maybe this is the Dri Archer shoe that drops.. ? Who knows. But Somebody is leavin.

 

[mightyguru]

I think Tebow is better than Vick at this point in their careers. Vick puts the ball on the ground constantly and can't take a hit.

And Teebs has a better freethrow %...push.

 

[mightyguru]

Nah Coach is right... if it is an ACL Ben should just rub some dirt on it, tape it up, and quit whining... He will be suited up for Thursday

**** yeah. Hines only needs one.

He will be just active on game day and Ben will be inactive.

ah... I was thinkin he was back on the practice squad.

Yep. Gilbert looks improved and in great shape.

Beachum and Cody got their ***** all kinds of whooped today.

Batch just said he would entertain coming back if asked.. haha awesome!

 

[Ron Burgundy]

Tebow doesn't have to be better than Ben or Vick, he just has to be better than Jones. Which he is.
Kinda like you don't have to be faster than the bear, you just have to be faster than the other guy you're with.

We could only wish they wouldn't waste a roster spot for him. God only knows who would snatch him off of our practice squad if we did.

Ravens 0-3. Going to be tough to win Thursday without Ben.

Screw it! Faith in Vick. If he can kills dogs. I'm sure he can kill birds. Get better Ben. Team needs you

It looked to me like Ben's lower leg shin area bent pretty good. It looked more like a leg than a knee but it could go either way when that happens.

There is no way we win this game. We aren't that good (12 points today) and the Rats aren't that bad (24 against arguably a better defense than we played today).

Beachum looked horrible today. And he's one of my fave's on the Oline. Steelers won. Injuries happen. Its part of football. This is chance for the team to step up and create an identity and battle adversity while their leader is down

You have really soured with your posts over the last few years. Tombert have you that far down?

I'm not doing nothing Thursday night. I can throw the ball a quarter mile and split a hair from 40 yards..LOL

Baltimore isn't too good thus far. The scary part going into this game however is the division rivalry. And the Ravens being frickin hungry for a win. Gonna be optimistic as always. Depsite our lack of.....talent

Nah. Ron's a realist. The short time I've been on this board. His post make the most sense. The fan in me wants the Steelers to win. The realist in me(just like Ron Burgundy) knows this team isn't as developed fundamentally. Which is sad cause they are pro's

 

[LastRide]

It is true the Ravens don't look all that good, but on the other hand we are famous for playing down to the competition.

 

[LastRide]

Our defense scares me more than anything else. Mostly in the pass coverage. Sometimes they look fine and other times like complete ****.

The Ravens have looked like crap at times but always seem to make it close at the end whether they win or lose the game.

Yep! Steelers are too inconsistent. One week they can look like Champions and the next they look like a horrible team

You just described 85% of the teams in the NFL.

Ben told AB he will be back this year according to the post game show.. whether he's just being optimistic or the docs told him something is TBD.
