The Steelers brought back a big name (and body) from the past. Mike Tomlin also had some encouraging news about Ben Roethlisberger and Troy Polamalu at his weekly press conference.

There was a lot of analysis surrounding the arrival of Ben’s first child with his due date set to come some time during the regular season. Luckily for the Steelers the birth was during the week and did...

Anyone who has paid attention to the Pittsburgh Steelers and Baltimore Ravens rivalry over the past five years knows what to expect when these two teams get it on.

The Pittsburgh Steelers were already without their starting
quarterback Ben Roethlisberger when they took on the Baltimore Ravens Sunday
night, and now the team has announced it will likely starter third-stringer
Charlie Batch against the Cleveland Browns due to Byron Leftwich’s fractured
ribs.
Leftwich’s inability to get the ball out quickly coupled
with the Steelers’...
Mike Tomlin labeled Byron Leftwich's performance as "gritty," but Mike Prisuta points out that "gritty" wasn't enough with all of the other mistakes being made.

I have no idea what Mike Tomlin was thinking leaving Byron Leftwich out there when he was clearly hurt. There’s no real difference in talent level between him and Charlie Batch; in fact, I thought Batch should have been the starter in the first place after Ben Roethlisberger was ruled out. He’s a better fit for their quick throw, timing based offense...
