Figured he wasn't playing this week when I read he just started running a straight line last week. He's probably out another week on top of this. We should have him back by week 17.
 
I'd be shocked if Conner makes it through a half as well.
 
Tough game to be without JuJu.

I hope for a miracle, but I don't see the anemic offense getting over the Bills this week. That's too bad. A win virtually guarantees a playoff spot. And that would have been pretty darn impressive.

Conversely, a loss actually makes it a bit challenging to hold on the 6th seed. They'd have to beat the Jets (doable) and likely the Ravens (less doable).
 
The Steelers, and most sports teams, really, still have a bad habit of trying to get guys to rush back and play through injuries... i het it, hige game, but if him reaggravating that knee injury means he will miss the playoffs even if they make it, then its dumb... just like letting conner play with that bad shoulder seems to have just made it worse, and letting him come back early not only set him back, it made us shorthanded for that game...

Its a physical game and the old school mentality of just playing through the more severe injuries with painkillers is not a sound plan...

The nfl needs bigger rosters and some sort of 6 game ir system for bad injuries that should get to heal fully...
 
Go rookies!


Ravens will be starting RGIII, we got that one in the bag, just have to beat the Jets
