By: G.Stryker: Twitter @SNStryker and Instagram @SNStryker SteelerNation.com James Conner was removed from the Covid Reserve List today and will play this week against the Buffalo Bills.* Hopefully his return can help the running game that has gone stagnant in his absence. Robert Spillane (knee) and Joe Haden (concussion) were both injured in the game […]

I hope Ben gets some playing time this week . To try to get more on the same page with the WRs.
 
I know Ben is 38. but do you think Josh Allen took off today? We need all the chemistry we can get clearly our offense is not firing on all cylinders

He is of course practicing tomorrow. but why not practice Wed? we are not 100% on offense. we need to get our offence ready to go. we should quite honestly have a better offense than defense. would anyone argue that our offense is better than our defense? no. and continue to give our qb the highest paid player on our team every wed an old guy days off

Guy has a surgically repaired elbow. You're trying to limit his pitch count to get to a SB. I don't want him blowing out his elbow in practice.

This is better than no practice for Ben at all last week.

and what we are struggling with on O can be worked on without Ben. There's other QB's and jugs machines for the WR's to catch from. And Ben doesn't need to be there for the Oline to work on run blocking.

he does have an elbow. he is also throwing the ball 50-60 times a game. It just seems like he could practice with his young recievers, offensive line and running backs on execution.

If the offense was executing on all aspects of the game , then yeah Vets day off makes sense.

Ben has had Wednesday's off for years. This is not a new thing.

The footage of Bradshaws arm falling off should be played on a loop before every game so people remember how things can end suddenly
 
any word when pouncey will be taken off covid list

agreed it has been years that he has gotten Weds off.

at anyone's job, if things are not going right, we put extra time in to correct or fix the issue.

Bens offense is not running the ball, is not holding onto the ball, are not running the correct routes, has become very predictable. Ben should probably put in a Wed or 2 to try and correct the issues.

Not running the ball = the line and play calling. Not catching the ball = the receivers, not the QB. The predictable play calling and routes is because we have become one dimensional. Maybe they should try to rotate a lineman and see if they can open holes in the running games....or better yet, use the FB you brought in during the power I
 
The chemistry on O is off because of the lack of running the ball and the lack of catching the ball. The throwing the ball part has been working very well this season---best in years.

Maybe Ben took the day to draw up some plays in his backyard, or figure out a way that he could get his receivers to catch the ball better....
