In their 23-20 overtime loss to the Baltimore Ravens on Thursday night, Steelers quarterback Mike Vick, subbing for an injured Ben Roethlisberger, passed for only 124 yards.

Bryant and Vick showed a spark during their brief time together in the preseason, with Vick’s first pass as a Steeler hitting Bryant for a 63-yard gain against Buffalo. And yes, Brown had to drop to the ground in an attempt to come up with it.

“I am very thankful for this organization giving me a chance”, said Boswell. We know that people like to just speculate and say things. Only eight of his 30 career touchdown receptions have come away from Heinz Field. “You just have to get the timing down and make sure we”™re on the same page.”. He threw one touchdown pass of 9 yards to Darrius Heyward-Bey, no interceptions and had a 95.7 passer rating for the game. He intercepted a Matthew Stafford pass in the Week 1 victory over the Detroit Lions.

“We’re just going to keep taking it week-by-week and try and get back as soon as I can”.

“Tomln said he looks forward to “Vick getting comfortable at our quarterback position… “Baltimore hadn’t given up a 100-yard rusher in how many games and we went out there and got 100 yards”. While we should see better numbers from Miller in the coming weeks, there are probably better options to play at tight end unless your starter is on a bye week. The weather was unfavorable for a good performance, with cold rain and wind making both field conditions and the atmosphere challenging. It was a positive sign for Bell, the 2014 AFC rushing leader.

Tomlin disputed a report that kicker Josh Scobee had a strained quad that will require three weeks to heal when the Steelers cut him Saturday.

Of course, the Steelers noticed during their film session how the Cleveland Browns gashed the Chargers front seven in the second half Sunday.

Matt Spaeth also returning to the lineup is good news for the team, for nothing more than his blocking skills. “We had an opportunity to evaluate him not only in that environment, but under less than ideal conditions”.

“That (the rumours) does not come from me or our doctors”.

Linebacker Ryan Shazier, who’s been absent from the field in the Steelers’ past two games, was diagnosed with nerve damage in his shoulder. Earlier this year, head coach Mike Tomlin spoke briefly on the fact that the nature of Bryant’s issues stretched beyond just the one that forced the league to hand down a four-game suspension, but that the team was aware of Bryant’s condition. “Cornerback Cortez Allen “looks better with the swelling in his knee.” Nose tackle Daniel McCullers “appears to be improving with his MCL sprain.” While Tomlin had no update on quarterback Ben Roethlisberger”™s prognosis from his knee injury, “he is progressing well in every way.
