    Dwyer looks like the starter and Batch and Rainey on 3D. But they will prolly throw the football a ton. Antonio Brown would be a nice guy to have dudekid

    Thought it was funny when people went crazy for Mendy after his performance a couple weeks ago. I doubt he'll ever be anything more than a low RB2 this year.

    I think they should enlist the services of Barry Sanders at running back. He used to play for the detroit lions, but he hasnt played the last few years so i believe he is available.

    That Steelers running game is becoming a mess. While Mendenhall was away, they ran pretty poorly from everybody involved.

    What JRod said. I was expecting Mendenhall to be a nice Bye week fill in (2 backs on a bye wk 7) or an option at the Flex, but now I have to start Mike Goodson.

    can someone find a link to confirm? Is he just out for this one week? What's the extent of the injury?

    Isn't like half their O-line injured as well? I'd stay far away from any Steeler RB.

    The Steelers have been plagued by key injuries all season and it doesn't seem to be getting any better...

    Big Ben is hurting from what I am reading. Its a Mash unit in Pittsburgh right now. I would be cautious about playing any Steelers now unless it was your only opinion.

    The Steelers didn't miss Mendenhall tonight!

    It was great to see everyone step up and play their part in this very important win for Pittsburgh!

    This was a nice game to see. I said it was a mess, but Dwyer stepped up tonight. He didn't look like anything special in the early weeks, but maybe this is something to look forward to.
