Big Score 1 Posted November 26, 2004 Share Posted November 26, 2004 Nov 24, 2004, 02:58 Jerry DiPaola, Pittsburgh Tribune-Review "Duce Staley will practice today and could play against the Redskins. Staley, who is the team's leading rusher with 707 yards, has missed the past three games with a hamstring injury. "How much he (practices), we'll see how he feels," Cowher said. "We'll have a better feel for where he is at the end of the week. He is significantly better than he was at the end of last week." Staley is questionable on the injury report."

Big Score 1 Posted November 26, 2004 Share Posted November 26, 2004 (edited) Nov 25, 2004 Jerry DiPaola, Pittsburgh Tribune-Review "Duce Staley returned to practice Wednesday, and proclaimed his partnership with Jerome Bettis in the Steelers' backfield as "the best one-two punch in the league." Staley, who leads the team with 707 yards rushing, refused to discuss the hamstring injury that has kept him out of the past three games. But Bettis, who sat out yesterday with a minor knee ailment, said Staley looked good. "He ran well," said Bettis, who plans to practice today. "It's just a matter of how well will it hold up an entire game? These are things he has to work through." Bettis has flourished in Staley's absence. He recorded the second-busiest, three-game stretch of his 12-year career, carrying 91 times for 381 yards and two touchdowns against the Philadelphia Eagles, Cleveland Browns and Cincinnati Bengals. Still, Bettis doesn't believe he will retain the starting job when coach Bill Cowher decides Staley is able to play. "I expect the situation is going to be the same," Bettis said. Staley said it will take some time to regain his timing with the offensive line. "But before you know it, you are thrown in the fire and you have no choice but to get your timing back," Staley said."
