Rookie LB Sean Spence (Miami FL) being carted off the field. Nasty left knee injury. Damn.

Sean Spence was placed on IR today. Trai Essex and Jeremy Kapinos were among those waived today.

Just read on Twitter that talks with Wallace are going the wrong way.

For a long-term deal? He signed his 1-year tender and showed up the other day.

I'm assuming it's about a long term deal if he signed his 1 year tender. I didn't read the article attached to the tweet. I believe it was an Adam Schefter tweet.

Ben could miss a game this season...and not because of an injury or suspension....

That's the right decision to make there. Kudos to him if that situation arises. Maybe he has matured some and now his priorities are in order.

He's had his share of shit-head moments over the years.....this would be a good step. All kids need a good Dad....he's off to a good start.

Isaac Redman will start tonight. Ryan Clark obviously won't play due to his sickle cell trait and James Harrison is probably out too.

It's a Steeler football Sunday. Here we go, Steelers, here we go.....

Good to hear, especially since the team is getting about 2.1 yards per carry, it seems. The quick passing game is working nicely, but it'd be nice to have at least the legit threat of a running game.

OK steelers fans. Havent seen any games, or highlights or even any articles since the Jets game.

I know TP and Harrison have been out, and Mendenhall as we pretty much knew.

Last game I got to see was the jets and I liked how the offense was commiting to the run a little bit more and just how the O was clicking.

Give me the low down on what has happend starting the oakland game so I can get caught up

Indeed. They did bump off some group of weaklings last night. Good to see they finally found an opponent weak enough for them to beat on the road, as the mighty Tennessee and Oakland squads were too tough in that situation.
