I doubt it. The roster will be set by then and hopefully the kinks and stupid mistakes will be worked out. "My Falcons" lmao.

They had some young guys get more playing time in prominent roles last night and frankly they stunk.

Dixon, Keenan Lewis, Emmanuel Sanders, Antonio Brown as a punt returner

That just means they'll go a little more conservative early in the season.

Leftwich will get the nod at QB.

Expect the main receivers to be Wallace, Ward and Randle El.

McFadden will hold onto the starting CB spot.

On a positive note, two Pittsburgh corners actually caught the ball when it was presented to them by the Broncos' QB's.

Man, none of the young guys who should be fighting for a job stepped up last night. I look for Keenan Lewis to get cut. Tomlin really laid it into him last night and wasn't happy with him last year either.

According to radio reports, Lewis also smashed a glass enclosed case in the locker room after the game. Not a good night for the young man.

I don't know if Lewis will get cut.

He was, in essence, getting more of a look as a starter. He failed that test but probably will just go back to being a reserve corner.

I'm just wondering what happens Thursday. They played Roethlisberger and Dixon in the first half against Denver so Leftwich didn't get to play with the first group. He probably should play a few series in this fourth game with the starting offense.

I thought Lewis looked awful the other night. Thank God Bryant McFadden isn't seriously injured.

I didn't get to see the game.

Doesn't sound too good for Byron.

To say that I am jealous of Troy's hair being insured for a million is an understatement.

I'd definitely take a 2-2 record with Ben out.

That means the Steelers have to beat Tampa and then one other game out of Atlanta, Tennessee and Baltimore.
