It’s that time of the year again. OTA’s have begun and fans and media are looking to see which players are present and which are not. Pittsburgh Steelers fans don’t have to worry about their QB room. They’re all there, headlined with veteran starting quarterback, Ben Roethlisberger:

This is exciting to see, as many people have been critical of Roethlisberger as of late, and how last season ended. After going 11-0, the team stumbled to 12-4 to end the season and were eliminated in the Wild Card round. It was definitely not the end of the season the team had in mind, but there were many positives to take away. Coming off a season ending elbow injury, Roethlisberger threw for 3,803 yards, with 33 Touchdowns to just 10 interceptions and a passer rating of 94.1.






Now with a full off season to focus on training, and showing his faith in this team by taking a pay cut, it seems Roethlisberger is ready to prove these critics wrong. Starting today with OTA’s, Roethlisberger and the rest of the team will focus on building a championship roster for this season, and bringing a seventh Lombardi Trophy back to the Steel City!

HellA ******* UlA.

I'm glad Ben is there but more glad we might get more STEELERS news out of the deal. OTAs and somehow it will be BEN's fault.

A leader leading by example not being a wuss about practicing. Oh, and that bomb to Najee was sweet. Najee looks quick. And, Ben likes to wear a lot of bulky shirts but he's looking pretty trim for this time of year. Lose another 5 to 10 pounds to be safe and he should be primed for the season.
 
looks from that angle a bit slimmer needs to be with a newer OL and to get back to PA and PA boot for some deep crosses for some close corner routes to guys like !8 Chase 13 hit them in stride and pile on yac yards

Don’t write us too fast for next year and here’s why. We will have loads of cap space in 2022 ranking at the top of NFL. We can extend TJ, Minka, and fill holes with quality. I know, QB could be problem but we just can’t know at this juncture where Ben fits into 2022. If he can remain healthy and play well this year, then Ben will come back. If not, we address it next year.
 
Thing is. I believe in ben. I have no faith in anyone behind him. Or some rookie qb,, or some re tread free agent. I have no faith in Tomlin. But im crossing fingers that canada can excel in spite of him. Ben is done in Feb 2022. Colbert is leaving with him. I think the d will be ok. I think the offensive weapons are great. I think ben can do it. I think we have a chink in the armor at Left Tackle. IDK if Okung or Dan Moore is the answer. But it sure as **** isnt okorafor. ALL THIS also rests on Bens willingness to 1. Buy in on 100% of Canadas offensive philosophy . 2. Be willing to get under center. 3. Hopefully be doing some kind of wunderkind uber anti aging workouts that make him more nimble and elastic.

I hear everything you are saying and agree for the most part. The very end is an easy fix.............. call everybody's favorit, t*mmyb*y and ask him for some of that TB12 drink and make sure it is the exact same thing nhe is drinking and NOT the watered down ****/chyt/shyite. We know it's safe and can't be detected on drug tests as t*mmyb*y has never come up positive..........................................

Has he ever even been tested? I doubt it.
 
One article I saw already said the OL can plan on having their hands in the ground the majority of the time, unlike in recent years. Much more aggressive for running the ball.
 
HAS anyone heard anything other than "SUGAR COATING" as to how some of these guys did ? I know it's just OTAs and no pads etc. But anything like where BEN lined up mostly, GREEN at center ?


I'm sure many are like me....kindA hungry for some new newS

So hard to tell at this stage. You really won't know until the pads come on who is shining and who isn't. They are running them through drills and you won't get the coaches opinions on that and the reporters will stay stuck in fluff.
