listening to steelers radio pregame show and they expect Ben to start on the bench. He came out very late in warmups and was throwing mostly only 10-15 yard passes in a "shotput" fashion. Leftwich should start...

willie parker and heath miller definitely out

woodley also out - bad ankle

Having Miller out really hurts. Spaeth is a horrible blocker, and that OL needs all the extra help they can get.
 

I think I want my money back!

I want to take the Over. But with these injuries I can't.

Ben has been terrible this year. They've been winning in spite of him.

I like them better with Leftwich in there honestly! Hoping it gets down to 3!

interviewed tomlin and he won't say whether ben starts or not. he did say that "if leftwich starts, ben will be available as the 2nd qb". of course the opposite holds true if ben starts

not good that woodley is out...9.5 sacks and the tandem of him and harrison were on pace to get near nfl record for a pair. steelers already missing starting cb mcfadden so if they don't pressure manning he may pick them apart
