Looking forward to hearing what Stan and the “sports guys” have to say after Ben and the Stillers presently have the 2nd best record in the league and clinched the AFC North.

According to the “sports guys” I’ve listened to, the assumption is that Tomlin is going to rest players, hence the Cleveland -6.5 betting line. I can’t recall Tomlin doing this in a similar situation, especially with the number 2 spot not being clinched, but perhaps the “sports guys” know what Tomlin is going to do.

Wonder if Stan and the “sports guys” wagered on the game, and how much they lost. I’ve been listening to Stan and the “sports guys” since I was “knee high to a duck”. If I had a dollar for every time they’ve been wrong, I could’ve retired even earlier.

Right, because a 12 win season and a division title is just terrible

Wow what a game and Roethlisberger finally snapped out of his funk and showed us that he can not only still play, but he still has the arm strength for long passes. That long pass to Diontae Johnson was one of the best of his career. Also, Watt is definitely the DPOY and Conner is by far the best running back on the Steeler’s roster when healthy. He blocks much better than Snell and he looked great in the second half. I saw this quote from Dale Lolley on DK Sports and it shows how lucky the Steelers are to have a quarterback like Ben.
“ That was Ben Roethlisberger's 35th career fourth-quarter comeback. Moves him out of a tie for fourth with Johnny Unitas. Now one behind Brees and four behind Brady. Manning leads with 43.”

Unfortunately, Conner can’t stay healthy and is lousy when he is healthy. Him being the best RB on the team shows how bad the Stillers need a quality RB.

Great stat by Ben. If only the Stillers hadn’t released Unitas after drafting him.

Connor is the epitome of the China Doll; it's just a question of WHEN he will be hurt next.
Perhaps no fault of his own, but he can't be relied on long term.
The Steelers had 20 , TWENTY yards rushing yesterday.

That's cute, especially considering Cleveland lost to a team worse than Cincinnati this past week

The assumption is that Ben and some other starters won’t play. If word comes out otherwise, it’ll certainly change greatly.
