Steelers need all personnel healthy bout 95% healthy to compete this year. Cant keep counting on defense and the Big (Ben) Play to win games. Get it from the ground up to Ben's arerial assault. Thats the ticket...not get out and play some football Steeler Style YEAH!

When was the last time the Steelers won less than 6 games? 1988. Wishful thinking on your part though. Before that, it was the 60's.

with no Suggs who kills the Steelers could be a clean sweep of the division.

Watching big Ben run I've realized he s the only quarterback slower than Bledsoe.

alot of new guys commenting. pitt is always under criticism. i hate when shiit doesn't seem hopeful, but they usually come through . defense is almost always on point, hope lebeau live to be 100. wanna see them own the clock like when sd had the ball for like 30 secs in 3rd qtr of playoff game yrs ago. go steelers .

Does not really matter. Steelers running game has been horrible the last couple years. An improved O line will help. Haley will use a short passing game in lieu of running game if necessary.

This is the best running O-line we've had since 2005.

mendenhall out & redman hurting? Viktor Von, Dr. Dume & the Wolfeman should be able to pin their ears back and tee off on big ben rapelisberger in week 1 at Mile High.

As a long time die-hard Steeler fan, I honestly do not see them doing great this season due to a lot of changes (players and staff).

I have said the same thing for a few years, including 2 SB years so I just don't expect anything anymore and see where it falls when it falls

mendy , don't rush back. But if you're ready, rock n roll. I liked Parker , but he didn't last long. I don't want the same to happen. As always pitt will surprise and still suceed . Go steelers

The fact thatt its even a question wheather he'll play week 1 is amazing. Those torn ligaments are usually a 10 month injury which would put him back in october. I'm happy he's off the pup list let alone doubtful for week 1

Rainey on 3rd downs. Too small to be running up the middle all game long.

If he makes it back by week one ESPN has zero credibility.

its actually a bait headline. of course he is a longshot to play week 1, They didn't want to go with headline "Mendy back in October" because who would click on that

Espn already had zero credibility. You know who their "source" was for the mike wallace back by week 1 story??? A worker from disneyworld who apparently spoke to mike wallace while he was at disneyworld

It is called making news. ESPN has no choice but to invent stories because their staff is not professional.
