I called it in the game thread. Just on the bases of it being Big Ben. If he left the game early, it was serious. The dude is a tank and one of the the toughest guys in the game today. For him not to return told me something was bothering him.

It's Ben, who knows how severe it is. Even if I read a report that he'll need amputation, I still wouldn't rule him out for this Sundays game...

It's not in the Steelers' best interest to forthcoming about Ben's status. Might as well make the Ravens plan for both cases.
I actually hope Ben plays. It's going to cheapen one of the 2 biggest games of year, if he's out. Bad enough that Hairpiece, Brown, and all 5 of the Ravens' blue chip defenders are banged up. |

Kinda my take on it as well. Guy gets hurt, but doesn't sit out. I was convinced he broke his ankle in a few places last season against the Browns, and all he missed was a drive or two. Dude simply ignores pain.
That being said - I'm scouring my waiver wire for QBs. Ben was money for my fantasy league, and I am now stuck in a tough place. Here's hoping that Doug Martin has another 250/4 TD game...

Difference is, this is his throwing arm.
And he didnt play well last year when dealing with his ankle injury.

I do not think that Roethlisberger can play worse than last year with his injury
He also had a right shoulder injury in 2008, same for Eli in 2007
I hope that Roethlisberger will play against the Ravens, since the steelers have no chance to win with Leftwith as QB

Terrible injury for Pittsburgh. For their sake let's hope he's back for 1 of the games vs. Baltimore.

The ravens are very lucky
Almost every year, Roethlisberger is injured before the game against the ravens
this is very [inappropriate/removed] frustrating
Including the 4 games suspension in 2010, Roethlisberger has missed six game since 2007 and three of its game were against the ravens

Ben's a tough SOB, no denying that. However, I think he needs to learn to sit a few out and let his injuries heal faster. Playing in the San Fran game last year was not a good decision, albeit in hindsight. Didn't help the team any and lost anyway. By a lot. Could the backup have done better? Who knows. I can't even name the backup without looking him up.
Hope he gets healed up quickly. My cousin is a huge Steelers fan, and I don't like him when he's cranky. :p
