    D played great but is a shell of itself without TJ. We won the battle but this season we will lose the war. Offense stinks and d was on field all day. A rough watch when we have the ball . O line sucks as bad as the preseason and worse than last year. Front office epic fail .

    Massive is an understatement here if true.

    Cataclysmic for the Steelers would be a better term imo. That swings the Win/Loss record in a massive way.

    That’s easy, TJ, but the win had no bearing his possible injury.

    ok, so I have been an optimist for the most part over the 10 years I've been on this board. And this is basically because I saw the team win 4 Super Bowls during my childhood so I've given them a free pass emotionally ever since.

    that being said, we did go to a Super Bowl the year Rod Woodson got hurt and missed the entire regular season, lest we forget.

    And I'll offer that the team is better off with Malik Reed replacing Watt than they were with Mason and Duck replacing Ben.

    I had a feeling that sooner or later something like this would happen to TJ, it sadly seems to be in the family genes.

    Nobody knows anything for sure yet. I’m not going to worry till there’s something confirmed to worry about.

    Depends on how bad a tear. Not good though. Even long term it knocks upper body explosiveness down a notch.

    How in the heck did we not address the O-line in the past couple years? Mitch as said looked bad as I thought he would. Then the worst TJ most likely out after game one. That said were 1-0 so we’ll see what we can improve on which will be a lot.

    I hope he can come back 100% from this, if it doesn’t heal right you are prone to have a reoccurring injury.

    The pain he was in. I bet it is torn. That takes a year to heal at least.

    Not good Steelers country

    That defense was fun to watch for one week. Too bad we won't see anything like that again this year.

    It depends on the grade of tear, his brother tore his is 2019 and was able to return in 8 weeks, it all depend on the grade of tear..
