Steelers News: Roethlisberger, Vick, Bell

Ben wants back in

We know better by know than to believe reports about Ben Roethlisberger’s health that do not come directly from Roethlisberger or the Steelers’ team doctors. Still, ESPN’s Adam Schefter speculates that a return could be imminent for the future Hall of Famer.

Ben Roethlisberger wants to play Sun vs. former OC Bruce Arians. Steelers have not ruled out possibility, but it's considered a “longshot."

We’ll see how realistic that is over the course of this week.

Vick needs to go

Steelers fans have very little chill when it comes to their quarterbacks. It may come from all these years of screaming at the TV for Roethlisberger to get rid of the ball but we all know it started long before him.

So while going into the Monday night game against San Diego there was a lot of optimism that the extra practice time Michael Vick received between the Ravens game and Chargers game would benefit him.

Still, once the offense seem to have stalled in the third quarter Yinzers were actually calling for Landry Jones to take the field in his place. ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler points out that Vick connected on a 72-yard touchdown pass to Markus Wheaton in the fourth quarter to tie the game.

Have a day, Bell

Steelers running back Le’Veon Bell ended the game (literally, he scored the game-winning touchdown on a direct snap from the one-yard line) with 21 carries, 111 yards, a walk off touchdown and a win.

Walk-off touchdown?

Yeah, @L_Bell26 Had a Day. #PITvsSD #MNF pic.twitter.com/A3DZ5UTImc
