    Who will be Ben's go to receiver this season?

    A lot of options this year, I'm not sure there's a definitive answer?

    I'm going out on a limb and predicting Sanders will lead the team in 3rd down receptions.

    he seemed to be very good at that last season

    If he gets healthy soon it is a possibility

    Everyday down - Ward

    I have to say that Ward is my pick most of the time, but Brown sure is looking good for the job.

    I voted Hines Ward because when you need that first down, he's money.

    I think we might also so a rise in Heath Miller's first down receptions if he doesn't have to stay in and block all the damn time.

    Hope he just looks for who is open and not get tied to one receiver. Scan the field and find the open guy, don't force it to your favorite. With this group, there will be someone open. If he has time.

    The press has started calling Brown "young money"....but during the Steelers Universe interview with Antonio...he specifically told me that He, Sanders, and Wallace were the "Young Money Crew".

    Individually they call themselves (and I am not kidding)

    Wallace = "Fast Money."
    Sanders = "Easy Money."
    Brown = "Cash Money."

    Jokingly the three younger WR's call Ward..."Old Money." and Ben is called "Large Money".

    I'm not saying they are good nicknames....I'm just saying thats what they call themselves.

    I know that Wallace was refered to "Trick" or "One Trick" which he doesnt care for because it referes to Tomlin saying that he is a one trick pony. Sanders was called "the Sandman" in college....and Brown was once called "Rod Tidwell." by Hines Ward due to his on the field antics. (Rod Tidwell was the character played by Cuba Gooding Jr in the movie Jerry Maguire )...but Brown has also referred to himself as "Turk"

    When they need a big first down, I truly believe Ben will always look toward the vet Hines Ward. He is ole reliable. Not that other guys aren't deserving.
