Roethlisberger to remain under concussion protocol

“When you’re done you want to be a husband or father, and if I have these brain injuries it’s not worth it”, Roethlisberger said. “We’re really happy to have him and miss the heck out of him”.

One of the reasons the Steelers fell out of contention, at least for this week, was their pass defense in a 39-30 loss at Seattle. Offensively, we had no problems moving the ball, particularly between the 20s. They also paved the way for 209 yards rushing by Thomas Rawls last week against the San Francisco 49ers. I think more people need to understand that. It was true Wilson’s rookie season, too, when he emerged in the final month of the as the engine in Seattle’s offense.

This week’s matchup between the Indianapolis Colts (6-5) and the Pittsburgh Steelers (6-5) will give the Colts a chance to add to their three-game winning streak. Safety Mike Mitchell (knee) did not practice Wednesday….

Are the spotters even watching the games?

He was finally beginning to feel like a piece of Seattle’s attack and not a forced option.

DeAngelo Williams has played so well this season when he has played in place of Le’Veon Bell, whether Bell was suspended or injured like he now is. “I guess if you are allowed to practice, you can play”. Whether they’re covering rear ends or what’s going on….

Finnegan has started 111 games with 18 interceptions and 86 passes defensed and 645 tackles.

Matt Calkins of the Seattle Times seems to think so. He had initial trouble implementing the “kick-step” technique Seattle teaches their cornerbacks to play. “I was literally on the sideline probably for the first time maybe in my life, thinking about my family and not going back into the game because I did not feel quite right”. We may not score touchdowns every time, but we’re scoring every time we’re down there. “He’s been competing and battling like insane”. “We realize the significance of this opportunity this weekend”.

“We’ve been growing with him and you expect certain guys to do things and we’ve expected Jimmy to make some plays and do some special things so it will be a little different”, Carroll said.

Shead will continue as the starter after his performance on Sunday. Remember concussion-until-after-game-4361/”>the recent case of Case Keenum, the St. Louis Rams quarterback, who took a hit to the head and clearly was concussed.

-DT Demarcus Dobbs left the game with a concussion and did not return. I will play through any injury.

A team doesn’t get better when it loses one of its best players, and there’s no doubt Graham is among the most talented playmakers not just on Seattle’s roster but in the league. He left the game in favor of Landry Jones, but sad said he is moving forward with the mindset that he will play this Sunday night against the Indianapolis Colts at Heinz Field.

There’s no line yet due to Roethlisberger’s injury status. Pete Carroll deemed it a minor ankle sprain on Monday.

The total has gone UNDER in 7 of Pittsburgh’s last 9 games.

If Russell Wilson hit a ceiling, he broke right through it.

The quarterback-turned-wide receiver has agreed to sign with Cleveland, a person familiar with the decision told the Associated Press on Tuesday.

Earlier this season, side judge Rob Vernatchi from Morelli’s crew was suspended for one game for not properly keeping track of the game clock in a Pittsburgh-San Diego game. Rawls finished with 81 yards and a touchdown on 21 carries.

“I took the test this morning”, Roethlisberger said. Defensively, the Steelers yield 283.6 yards in passing and 93.6 yards in rushing. I took the three points. They attack opposing defenses with their physical running style and explosive passing game. We kicked a field goal.
