    That's how I see it also.

    They need AB for the divisional round. If he is able to play, he needs to play (especially if they play Jacksonville). Would be stupid if they held him out just because he might get injured again.

    Hopefully having too many weapons (Bell, Brown, Bryant and JuJu Bee) to choose from won't overwhelm for Ben.

    Barring injury, there is NO good excuse for putting up less than 30 points per game.

    IMO, I would begin the Division game with AB on the sidelines; go with JuJu, Bryant, Bell, & McDonald. Lots of runs (the Jaguars are not as good against the run anyway). After the first three drives, if the Steelers have the lead, keep AB on the sidelines; if the Steelers are behind/the offense is struggling, then you bring AB in.

    In other words, save him for the AFCCG.
    The Jaguars are much better against the run since the middle of the season

    I do not want to wait for the steelers to play Brown when the steelers are in trouble, since it could be too late

    The Steelers need to win, no matter it's against titans or jaguars ....

    But, their pass defense is still better. That secondary is insane. Make sense?
    This is for this reason why we need Antonio Brown!

    QUESTION (and I’m serious):
    Is anyone else besides Ian Rapoport reporting that AB is 100%?

    Because, considering Rapoport’s track record, AB might actually be in a walking boot...

    Running around in a park does not (necessarily) equate to being 100% healthy.

    It’s a good sign, but...

    I don't claim to be a doctor, but it's hard to imagine that a player would be 100% after a few weeks with a partially torn anything.

    It's the playoffs and they are playing against the AFC's best defense. It's a case of shit or get off the pot. If he can play he needs to. If they rest him just because they want to save him for next week, there may not be a next week

    Sooo...

    Besides Ian Rapoport and/or Chad Ochocinco’s Instagram, does anyone else out there (i.e. a legitimate source) have an update on AB???

    I agree. There's no point in saving him for something that might not even happen. I'm sure that AB will want to play and will play.
    I believe the game is designed to reward the ones who hit the hardest. If you can't take it, you shouldn't play!- Jack Lambert

    These were the "street thug" comments

    "We out here, injury-free. God is good," Johnson said in a video posted Saturday on Instagram. "We called God. Back out here. (Brown) came to the shop. You get a flat tire, you come to the shop, you get the tire fixed. Where do you go? You go to the best feet ever."

    http://www.sportingnews.com/nfl/news...r1voi4fb54mcex

    I know you would post exactly the same comment if the recording of two white players was virtually inaudible due to a heavy wind

    Maybe you should just follow a sport that fits your apparent demographic preference like hockey

    It was a stupid comment and I apologize for it, I was kidding but it wasn't funny.

    Ironically that 86Ward posted that picture because I'm a Flyers fan as well and love Simmonds.

    Love the Flyers too. What do you realistically think their chances are this season? Playoffs? An actual run? Honestly haven't watched much, but the rebuilding looks pretty close to paying off.

    Props for walking the comment back

    I know how I have posted something and almost immediately wanted to reel it back in (e.g. - initially calling out AV for his role in the anthem fiasco in Chicago)
