Mount Manboobs? We'll see. It's always an intense battle between the rivals so anything can happen. I'm sure it will be a double chin strap game.

Still, from what I've heard and read, Big Ben is not as well-liked in Steel Town as he used to be. I think that some wish he played somewhere else in the league, and not for the Steelers.

I think the perception has changed over the last month with him, as far as the fans go. He's too good to not put in there, end of story.

That's actually totally different now. Regardless if he's liked or not, he's the teams starting QB and won a Super Bowl through the time where he wasn't "well liked." He'll be welcomed back. No doubt.

There's a good chance he will lay an egg. If he does, he does. No controversy. He's a Top 5 QB in this league. However, it's difficult to just jump back in and play like he hasn't missed any time. He should be rusty...

i personally think hes gonna be real sharp when he gets back...i kind think he'll go apeshit and have his best season (proportionally - 4 games) hes in really good shape and should be pretty pissed off.

this week should be a heart attack, im real interested in seeing pouncey stonewall gregg all day, but pouncey vs ngata should be epic. mendenhall his gonna love pounceys abililty to crush the Lbs at the second level

The Defense might get Cody back this week. That will stop any runners.

13-9 may be the score.

historically pouncey vs cody hasnt been a fair matchup

I without a doubt think he will return and be great, he's slimmed down and had alot of zip on the ball in pre-season.

K Train · #77 09-29-2010, 05:36 PM

he almost HAS to play well now too, hes got to be so motivated with them 3-0 and possibly going 4-0....he doesnt have to come in and be the savior

Ben has always been an anomaly when it comes to playing QB in the NFL since the day he put on a Steelers uniform. I'm not surprised if he comes in and tears it up from pass number one. He was solid in preseason and there's no doubt he's going to come out pissed and gunning to destroy the Browns.

I'll be starting him on my fantasy team over Peyton that week...
