    Did you see the video of Aaron? He usually does it on Family night over 50 yards out throws the ball into a 28" basket with a bag and gets nothing but net.

    I know at family night he does it one attempt, not sure if in practice it is more than one and they keep a video of the make.

    Roethlisberger shown on the sideline, he cut a lot of weight compared to seasons past.

    Haskins, what QB wears multiple gold chains in a game?

    Nothing wrong with necklaces or Haskins, but my goodness if it is religous or personal beliefs/holdings at least secure it down with some surgical tape.

    If it's not that important, leave it in the locker room.

    Steelers trade for Joe Schobert from Jacksonville. Seems they are taking the defense wins championships approach, not speaking to this season per se'.

    Could be trying to build for the no Ben future and staying competitive with a lesser offense.

    I think they should have went either O-line or another full back sized back. Unless they feel Watt may sit a few games on contract talks I question the move.

    I'll readily admit the Steelers were the worst ever 12 and 4 team last year.

    I also have thought critics were way too fast to write them off for this year. Ben dropped weight in the off season and has been a workhorse in training camp this year. They drafted a legit running back this year, seem to have picked up a decent tight end as well. Defense was never really in doubt even with the loss of Dupree.

    Steelers still have talent and depth on both sides of the ball. Ben looked sharp in his 3 series tonight, if Ebron would have held onto it on the first drive he could have went 3 for 3.

    I hope TJ Watt gets his deal or commits to play, I get it, but they need him on the field as well.

    If Washington persists with his trade wants, I hope they can get something for the O-line for him. That is the biggest unknown, but if those guys can come together the Steelers could shove a lot of words down critics throats.

    Let's go week 1!!!!
