Chavez Posted November 14, 2005 Share Posted November 14, 2005 Yeah, after that last toss, I doubt a Presidential decree could get Cowher to let Maddox throw the ball. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bushwacked Posted November 14, 2005 Share Posted November 14, 2005 Just because Indy is "phenomenal" doesn't mean Pitt is "mediocre." 1147352[/snapback] Actually it does. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Menudo Posted November 14, 2005 Author Share Posted November 14, 2005 With Roethlisberger out, and Batch breaking his hand, I'd be worried about Tommy vs. Baltimore next week. 1147372[/snapback] I am. However, with Batch out, I think Ben plays. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
max Posted November 14, 2005 Share Posted November 14, 2005 I am. However, with Batch out, I think Ben plays. 1147389[/snapback] I would rather him sit if there is any doubt at all about his knee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chavez Posted November 14, 2005 Share Posted November 14, 2005 Actually it does. 1147379[/snapback] I'd like for you to explain how. The presence of a curvebuster does NOT downgrade other good teams. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaptainHook Posted November 14, 2005 Share Posted November 14, 2005 (edited) His knee IS worse than they say. Tell me more Dr. CaptainHook. 1147397[/snapback] anytime I hear "meniscus" when they talk about a knee injury, it always takes longer than they say it will. Staley, Boldin, Calico, D. Jackson. I don't think it is as bad as those, but I bet he misses at least next week. I think he tries to come back for the Indy game, but it will be close.

Ben had to be talked into the surgery, as he wanted to just continue to play through the pain. That said, post-surgery, you could be right. If he is iffy, I'm guessing the Steelers try to get the win in Baltimore without him, but he WILL play against the Colts. You would have to chain him up to keep him from starting that game and proving how over-rated the horseshoes are. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I see I am dealing with a brilliant fooball mind here. P.S. Still waiting on the 10 teams that are better than the Steelers, thus moving them into the medicore category.

max Posted November 14, 2005 Share Posted November 14, 2005 (edited) On local news they showed Ben using a crutch earlier in the week too. That cant be too good of a sign for him playing next week either. He isn't using a crutch tonight on the sidelines and that is a good sign. But going from just starting to walk without a crutch and playing a game in approx 1 1/2 weeks doesn't sound like a great idea to me. edited to add ... I agree with captainand menudo in that I would find it hard to imagine him not being there vs the Colts.

Chavez Posted November 14, 2005 Share Posted November 14, 2005 P.S. Still waiting on the 10 teams that are better than the Steelers, thus moving them into the medicore category. 1147413[/snapback] Since bushwhacked doesn't seem able, I'll take a whack at it (obviously, this ranking is based on a reasonably healthy Roethlisberger; without him, they slide down the food chain a bit): Indy (obviously) Den (unless/until Plummer implodes) Probably on even ground with Jax or Cinci, though they handled Cinci pretty easily. Lost to NE, but I can't rank the Pats ahead of the Steelers at this point in time. Might rank Seattle ahead of them; only other NFC team in Pitt's league is Carolina. So at best there are 7 teams better than them, depending on your criteria. I'd say there are only 2 or maybe 3 CLEARLY better than them, and about 25 teams they are better than. So unless you're ranking the entire NFL as mediocre to bad aside from the Colts, the Steelers AREN'T mediocre. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Menudo Posted November 14, 2005 Author Share Posted November 14, 2005 Hope basically dropped a punt there. I can't believe Suzy Kolber was putting Hope in the same group with Polamalu. Luckly, Mike Patrick was smart enough to make it clear that Hope is good, but Tryo is great. It is a shame that a good announcer like Patrick is stuck with those two bufoons.
