Steelers News: Chris Boswell, Ben Roethlisberger, Antonio Brown
By Kim Myers
The Steelers have returned home to face the Giants to turn their back to back wins into a legit winning streak.
While the team gets ready to take the field we’ll be busy looking for mentions of your Black & Gold so we’ve got you covered. Here’s your Steelers Morning Huddle for Sunday, Dec. 4th.
Not this again
Don’t freak out. The injury list got a new name added to it on Saturday when the Steelers added kicker Chris Boswell with an injury to his abdomen. He’s listed as questionable. Must be something going around because as soon as I saw that I got sharp pains in my abdominal region as well.

As an insurance policy the team had to sign kicker Randy Bullock in case Boswell is unable to go on Sunday against the Giants. We’re not even going to mention the madness the team went through prior to Boswell’s arrival last season but I just can’t go through that again.
I just can’t. Go for two. Every time. Why not?
He’s going to pump fake…a lot
The division certainly can’t be won on Sunday by defeating the Giants but there is no room for error. The Giants won’t make it easy for them because ESPN’s Sheil Kapadia calls the matchup between New York’s defensive line and Pittsburgh’s offensive line one of the best of the weekend.
Ben Roethlisberger is not an easy man to take down by any means. The offensive line will have their hands full trying to keep Jason Pierre-Paul and Olivier Vernon away while Roethlisberger pump fakes all of Steeler Nation into a heart attack. That and an injured kicker. Should be a fun afternoon.
Let’s watch the show
One part of the matchup between Pittsburgh and New York should be actually fun to watch. With Antonio Brown on one side of the ball and Odell Beckham Jr. on the other there will be two of the best, and most animated receivers in the league balling out.

Hopefully one more than the other, naturally. Beckham trained with Brown this offseason and Ray Fittipaldo has his comments on going up against him.
"“This is definitely a game where I’m going to be standing up watching this guy. I love him like a brother. We trained in the offseason together. His work ethic is unreal. I just want to see him. This is the first time I actually get to watch him live. Just to see him line up, I’m excited about it. Hopefully, he doesn’t have too many celebrations.” – Odell Beckham Jr."

I hope he has all of the celebrations.
