INJURY UPDATES

This is not good

 

That's not encouraging news.

 

Things just went from bad to worse

 

It was already worse…they are at whatever is after that.

 

Usually it's Pole Position for #1 draft pick but even that's not possible at this point - so how about Purgatory?

 

from suck to suck-AGE

 

That is just clickbait based on the team reporting Monday that both Watt and Highsmith were in the concussion protocol.

if you scroll down, however, the next article gets interesting. It sure as hell sounds like Watt was allowed to play when he shouldn't have been out there. As the article points out, switching to a tinted visor indicates an eye injury or light sensitivity. I don't remember seeing any indication of the former, but the latter is a symptom of a concussion. If he had any symptoms of a concussion, he should not have been in the game. The team also pulled Watt from post-game interviews, citing a migraine as a reason for it. That would be yet another concussion symptom. Yes, it's bad that he might miss the game in Indianapolis with a concussion. Yes, that would effectively end the Steelers' chances of making the playoffs. The bigger issue is someone dropping the ball and letting him play with a concussion Thursday night, which is extremely dangerous for Watt.

 

I’m looking forward to watching Saturday's game

I’ll catch the first half in a local tavern that has excellent food

I’ll catch the second half at home with a beer fire and my wife and dogs all on the sofa

Life is good

A win will be better

 

I just hope the team will win another playoff game in your lifetime. We owe it to a great fan and Civil War vet like yourself.

 

Tavern? Do you live in mountains? What kind of food do they serve there?

 

Uncle Rico might drop 40 on us if both of them are out!

 

My wife made me Manicotti for my birthday… i maybe Irish / Polish but I love my Italian food!

 

Farm country north of Pittsburgh about an hour or so although I do live on the highest point around but it’s not a mountain just a hill

Crispy shrimp wild mushroom soup smoked wings shrimp and grits lobster and mushroom risotto

It’s upscale pub grub but in town we also can get decent low scale pub grub

Awesome, im hoping when i retire i can find my way back to Pa mountains! Of course thats going to be up to my better half.
I was up there in April, drove to Ligonier and ate at a little restaurant.

 

Watt and Highsmith were both at practice in a limited capacity. A good sign to start the week.

 

My wife and I really like the tavern on route 58 between Grove City and Mercer called "Rudy's". All kinds of great sandwiches and Italian food. If I'm really hungry I get the "Tour of Italy" it has Chicken Parm, Lasagna, Stuffed shells along with a salad and Italian bread. I used to be able to eat all of it but now I have to get a box and take the rest home for later.

 

Thanks I’ll try it

Only went to the tavern on the square in Mercer once but everything we had was good

 

Highsmith was limited again today, but TJ was full go.

 

Johnson sitting with a sore knee isn't great. I wouldn't mind one of those receivers getting benched, but if he sits with an injury, they get the double-whammy of having to play without him and Tomlin not holding them accountable.

 

Do I think it will get ugly in Indy, yes but I'm still looking forward to Saturday afternoon regardless of the product we are going to have on the field.

 

Same here. It's like 1985-88 all over again.

 

Used to be the Kaufman House? Ate there a few years ago after a shopping trip to The Grove City Factory Outlet. Best restaurant French Onion soup I ever had. Dynamite meal, great place to eat.

 

You too? Mom is Scotch/Irish, dad Polish/Slovak. I like Italian food too but home made Polish grub is tough to beat. My paternal grandmother used to make awesome pierogis and halupki's for big holiday meals. Used to go there every year for Chistmas Eve, then Midnight Mass. It was the best of times!

 

Also ate at the Iron Bridge and Rachel's on 19. Good grub. I go past those places on the way to Mercer for the races and those joints are jammed on Saturdays. Popular biker destinations. Haven't tried the Rock House yet. Heard it's pretty good.
