Ben gets hurt. Ben tries to play. Ben throws picks and a ton of incomplete. Steelers lose. Simple math. See you guys next week, hopefully Big Ben is healthy. Torn MCL. Surgery tomorrow. Out indefinitely, which for Ben is about two days; but realistically he'll be reevaluated in a few weeks. Till then it's Landry Jones time to our season up. Bet any money he's benched for Mettenberger at some point. But for real though, how do you play nearly a whole game on a torn MCL? Ben is not human.

If it weren't for the fact that the Texans winning helped the Steelers out when it comes to the likely Wild Card race (no way they win the division without Ben) I would be completely gutted for the Colts. Lordy.

It wouldn't shock me if Chuck Pegano and Ryan Gregson or the Colts defensive coordinator get fired mid season.

Ryan Clark: When Ben doesn't play, the Steelers don't win. Just ask Vick, Batch, Bruce, Dixon, Landry and Maddox.
The fact Tommy Gunn's name came out of someone's mouth is almost as surprising as someone throwing Batch under the bus. Last I checked, Batch was 6-1 as Steelers starter dammit.
...I'll return to sulking now.

When Brucie G destroyed his shoulder again in the preseason, they brought Mettenberger in and he played the rest of the preseason, Landry made the roster by necessity and he knew the system better than the fresh Mett. This is going to be a headache of a week for those two guys.

I just wanted to see the Falcons play a good game against Seattle to see what kind of team we really are. The fact that we almost won with them at home, fresh off a bye, I feel pretty good.

I wouldn't be surprised to see him come out to play in a full body cast. On a serious note, that sucks. I wanted to see Big Ben starting Sunday, competition is good.

Green Bay taint looking so hot right now, but we've been so spoiled though the last 25 years with QB play and regular season winning that it's probably due time to come back down to Earth for a while.

You definitely had me scared man. I think the refs didn't call pass interference because Julio also did illegal contact to the head when he got off the line on Sherm.

Ben getting hurt probably helped me win my fantasy game by 5 points. So that's nice.

That is how I felt going into the game also. If we could just compete with them at home, coming off a bye and us on our 2nd week of West coast games, I was happy. We competed, and could've easily won the game. We are good this year. The young Defense is improving each week and playing better than stats indicate. The schedule remains tough with a lot of teams that can beat us including San Diego this week. Excited to see how the D does up against 2 really good QBs in Rivers/Rodgers the next 2 weeks. We lost D. Shelby who was starting to play well especially against the run. Hurts the rotation a bit.
