Ben Roethlisberger comes to press conference in a walking boot. Isn't sure what injury is but says he'll be out there Sunday against the Chiefs.

Roethlisberger in walking boot after Dolphins game

Quarterback Ben Roethlisberger attended his post-game press conference in a walking boot following the Pittsburgh Steelers' 30-12 win over the Miami Dolphins in Sunday's wild-card round.

Roethlisberger said he hurt his ankle but vowed to play next week against the Kansas City Chiefs, according to ESPN's Jeremy Fowler.

Roethlisberger remained in the blowout win late in the fourth quarter and winced after taking a low hit on the Steelers' last offensive play.

Again, I beg the question...Why was Ben in after the first series of the 4th quarter?

It's on the ESPN front page....
 
Typical, but Tomlin will just ramble on some nonsense about fears and accept no responsibility. Hope Ben is just adding his usual drama.

Wtf? Walking boot. For crying out loud. I didn't see him limping around.
 
GRRRRR. Everyone here knew our brilliant head coach should have pulled Ben and Bell sooner.

Even Bradshaw knows this. Suh apparently did it when he fell on Ben.

Ben better be okay, and not limited because of this foolish judgment.
 
This is the same BS that lost Derek Carr for the season....Raiders up 33-14 with ten minutes left in the game and possession of the ball. So what do you do? You throw the ball and get your QB lost for the season. Worse situation for the Steelers where they had the game won and no reason for him to be throwing...should have been handing off the ball to Williams and burning 2-3 minutes of clock.
 
Just re-watched the play over and over. His ankle wasn't bent in any awkward position. He was favoring his shoulder but no limp at all. Looks like it's just precautionary. Gives the reporters something to write about. And the sky is falling Steeler fans something to ***** about. Lol
 
I'm guessing precautionary because he wasn't limping at all after the game, even while shaking hands, Tomlin said nothing about it in the presser

Even more reason to run the ball
 
Many, many QB's would still be in at that point of an elimination game.........

Ben scrambled on that play & and should have thrown the ball away.....

He looked good last year coming back in vs Cincy, then threw for 300 at Denver and we have a good shot to win if touissant doesn't fumble
