Good. Let him rest up and heal for Baltimore.

I do wonder who they'll throw in for the fourth receiver this week. Anyone think Ward can play for one game?
I have to admit, I don't like the fact that Gilbert is coming back after this next game probably. I think what Adams does for the run game far exceeds what Gilbert does for the passing game.
Last week, I was laughing at the idea of a RB controversy. Now? Sure, Mendenhall starts, but who is the number two? Number three? Do we put Dwyer in there, or does Redman come on as number two? I think Dwyer has more versatility but Redman can pound it out just a tad more. I've always said that good problems are just problems you can't complain about. I think we have that situation now with our RB's.

I don't mind AB sitting this Monday night. Tomlin did confirm it just to be a small ankle sprain, but it can still be something that lingers if not given the proper time to heal.
Mendy has a chance to play, but i say if he is not 100% then sit him. We have now two healthy backs who can contribute and there is no point in risking another injury to Mendy.

Gilreath. They will promote whoever has shown improvement, I guess.
That's what I am thinking. Rainey in the slot?

Not this week, he's hurting as bad as Antonio.

Shouldn't need Brown, shouldn't need Troy, shouldn't need anyone banged up. If they can't beat the Chiefs, who by the way have announced that because Brady Quinn is still suffering from concussion symptoms, Matt Cassell will start; if they can't beat the Chiefs, they have many more issues than the injuries. Many more issues.
Again - ...because Brady Quinn is still suffering from concussion symptoms, Matt Cassell will start...

AB is overpaid anyways.

The Steelers signed former Penn State WR Derek Moye to their practice squad today... I'd kinda like to see what he can do.
Rest Tone, we'll be fine with Wallace, Sanders, Cotchery and whoever dresses as a 4th. WR for the Chiefs game.
Array title="Craic has a reputation beyond repute">
He did practice today (a day after your post). So Rainey just may end up being the forth guy. It'd make sense, especially if we are coming in with Redman, Dwyer, and Batch as RB's.

I don't know that they'll promote a receiver for the week. Miller/Rianey (if healthy) should be able to fill in nicely if needed, depending on the set. How often does Haley have four receivers on the field? Not often enough to use another active spot on a fourth wideout in my opinion. Granted if someone gets injured you have a bit of a problem, but I wouldn't be extremely concerned.
I think you promote a fourth wideout in case someone gets hurt.
Array title="Seven has much to be proud of">
Yeah, that would be the only reason to do so in this offense in my opinion. But if the coaches feel they can use that active spot to their advantage at another position I think I'd look at utilizing it that way first.

I think in our offense it would be a crucial position, because say sanders goes down i the 1st quarter, then we are rolling with wallace cotchery and rainey. I really dont feel comfortable with rainey whos not practicing as a wideout knowing the routes. It only takes one wrong route to result in a pick 6, I think you bring up a 4 who knows how to run the routes just in case. Besides i like rainey out of the backfield on a linebacker better.
There's no guarantee that Rainey is playing yet is there?
Steelers final report: Polamalu, Brown, Gilbert, Sylvester out. Mendenhall doubtful. Carter questionable. Rainey, Dwyer, Suisham probable.

Oops. Wrong thread.
wrong topic!
Array title="ALLD has a reputation beyond repute">
Expect Cotchery to have a career game. Pope might even catch a few. Wallace will drop 3 or 4, but catch a TD.
All Defense!
smh...people still thinking wallace has such awful hands all of a sudden after half a season
In those people's defense, they've pretty much thought that since the holdout ended.smh...people still thinking wallace has such awful hands all of a sudden after half a season
Array title="zulater has a reputation beyond repute">
What do these last few posts have to do with Antonio Brown's or any other Steeler injury?
"A man's got to know his limitations."
because brown not playing just means wallace will get ragged on unless he triples his production, makes clutch plays, difficult catches, and of course, never drops a ball
