Steelers News: Ben Roethlisberger, Antonio Brown, Ramon Foster
By Kim Myers
The Steelers are your AFC North Champions and hold the No. 3 spot in the playoffs with their big Christmas Day win over the Ravens.
While the ream gets ready for the regular season finale against the Browns we’ll be busy looking for mentions of your Black & Gold so we’ve got you covered. Here’s your Steelers Morning Huddle for Saturday, Dec. 31st.
Looking forward to the rest
Ben Roethlisberger sat down with Missi Matthews to talk about the playoff push and getting to rest for the final regular season game. Roethlisberger praised his offensive line for the success this season as they stayed mainly healthy throughout the season.

Because of past injuries it seems as though Maurkice Pouncey getting the rest on Sunday was a personal request by Roethlisberger. He calls the offensive line the best in the NFL. I tend to agree.
Taking one for the team
It seems like people are always trying to turn Antonio Brown into a stereotypical diva wide receiver. If you’ve really been paying attention, however, AB is anything but typical. He talked to press after Friday’s practice and talked about sitting out the final regular season game to stay focused on the ultimate goal.
Brown doesn’t need to lead the league in receiving yards or catches to know he had a good season.
Stay rich
Ramon Foster’s nickname from college is The Big Ragu. ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler says that the name comes from his famous lasagna he makes for his teammates periodically. While they like his lasagna they clown him about his habit of collecting receipts.

He keeps receipts from everything from gas to dinners out so that he can use them when he does his taxes each year. He’s just trying to stay rich. Can’t hate on that.
