Week 5 status unclear for Steelers WR Martavis Bryant

Michael Vick replaces Roethlisberger and he’ll be looking for Brown, Martavis Bryant and Darrius Heyward-Bey. On a chilly, blustery Saturday, he did enough to earn the chance to travel with the Steelers (2-2) when they play at San Diego (2-2) next Monday. As a team, they’ve been tested. That’s why I would expect to see offensive line coach Joe D’Allesandris give Tuitt as many looks as possible. As a result of his strong performance, he was a three-time member of the Groza Award Watch List, which goes to the NCAA’s best place kicker. We had the ability to evaluate him not only in the environment, but also under less-than-ideal conditions. We want to be great so we are going to do whatever needs to be done.

“I thought Mike did a terrific job”, Haley said. Which team do you think will win?

Bryant returned to the team last Friday after serving a four-game suspension, but he indicated Wednesday that he missed practice because of “soreness”. While they’re incredibly aggressive, they also have a tendency to get undisciplined, which can lead to long drives for the opposing offense.

“I feel so much better just having more time to practice, more time to build chemistry and learn the offense”, said Vick. “I don’t know right now”. I learned a lot about myself, especially from the mistakes I’ve made.

Every morning Roethlisberger and Bryant would communicate, usually via text messaging. As for this season, Brady has weapons like Rob Gronkowski, Julian Edelman, and Legarrette Blount at his disposal, and he’s using them well.

“He puts a little bit more speed on the field for us”, Butler said of a healthy Shazier. “You just have to get the timing down and make sure we”™re on the same page.”.

Pittsburgh’s kicking situation has been a mess so far this season. Only four other teams rank lower than that. “I’ll wait until Week 16 and see where I’m at”, Bell said. In point of fact, both his misses in Thursday’s Steelers-Ravens game happened at the end of the field, where the wind rises to make swirls coming up from the river. We usually brought more than four, but that was that game plan.

“Everybody in this locker room is a professional”.

-Inside linebacker Sean Spence, on allowing 191 rushing yards to the Ravens: “The runs they hit we came up short in the gap”. Don’t do it. Evans is overdue for a big game and at home against Jacksonville’s 25th-ranked pass defense should provide opportunities. Tight end Matt Spaeth, who broke his hand and is still in a cast, will be a day-to-day guy to evaluate. Furthermore, Shaun Suisham suffered a torn ACL during the HOF Game against Minnesota, and Garrett Hartley, who was going to be replacement kicker, got a hamstring injury in preseason and got injured reserve instead.
