Ben sprained MCL out 4 weeks

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.

They do make games close. It should be another close one Thursday night. Especially running safe plays with Vick at the helm.
 
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.

AB is devastated, I am sure... what are the chances his streaks continue now?

Not what I wanted to hear. Ben will be back this year, week 16
 
Hurts even posting this but this is the best pic I've seen of the injury as it happened...

I heard the head official of the NFL has said it should of been a penalty.. ......No ****.
 
Steeler got hit with karma for signing a guy like Vick

Well, based on the type of injury, how it happened, and to which knee it occurred.... I'd say if there's karma involved here it's more likely due to the hit Kimo laid on Carson Palmer.

That is.... if you actually believe in stuff like karma. :)
 
Well,I sure wish we didn't have such a brutal schedule. Wishing Big Ben a speedy recovery. That being said,we will see what out OC is made of. He will be our most important piece in this puzzle. Let's hope They have a great game plan for Vick. We know he has the arm,we know we have the recievers ,the running back and our line is fine. We will see what this team is made of,and I think some of the fans.
I say Go Steelers!! Next up ....!

It was simply a blown non-call. Believe me, Belicheat would've intervened if it was Shady Brady and made 'em throw a flag after the fact.

Former NFL Referee Mike Pereira Believes Low Hit On Ben Roethlisberger Was Illegal
 
It was a cheap play he stumbled, but he could have fallen. He continued. He wanted to try and make a play he shouldn't have tried to make. All I'm saying is that if it was Brady the liberal transgender/ Brady loving media's collective head would have exploded.
 
You have really soured with your posts over the last few years. Tombert have you that far down?

I predicted 10-6 like I do every year but as more of Cowher's players left the quality has dropped for sure. I'm 55 but I take comfort in knowing that when I'm 75 Greg Warren will still be our long-snapper.

We live next door to the brother of longtime Vikings long-snapper Cullen Loeffler. He played for 11 years and was released last month.

Made lots of money, only had one pretty serious injury, gets a nice NFL pension.

Yep, nice gig.
 
Anyone read Mark Barron's account. What a fucktards. Though I have to admit that I thought it was a pounce broken ankle more than a knee at first.
 
Barron's hit was dirty.

He was on the ground and pushed himself forward to pin BR's leg.

It's like he realized, "Oh..A little push and I can take him out."

He succeeded.

Oh, it was dirty. He aimed for his lower leg as he crawled/lunged for him....

Rams safety Mark Barron:
"I stumbled on the way in and just caught his leg. Some kind of way, he ended up hurt. I caught him down around his lower leg. He was grabbing his knee. I didn't have anything to do with his knee. I saw him fall. I didn't see how he fell, I just saw him fall. I don't know exactly what happened to him. Like I said, I just caught him down around his ankle and he fell and grabbed his knee."

Really? WTF? How the hell can he honestly say he had nothing to do with his knee?
