Anyone else worried that players are going elsewhere and what we are left with?

    Sooner or later we will have to blow this thing up and start over guys. Unless 2014 raises the cap a bunch. If we have to blow it up, we're looking at two Brown stain seasons

    Oh so when people say that Tomlin wins with Cowhers players, they really just mean Ben, ok, got it.

    The only player that I wanted to stay on that list was Lewis,,we're thin at the CB position and he was getting better. The rest can go bye bye's

    Nor did he have their running game.
    The Bus was in the final 2 years of his career and was a shell of his former self. Heck in 05 he was a part timer. Remember the game where he had 4 rushes for 3 yards and 4 TDs?

    Yeah, I remember it. I was there. It was the home opener against Oakland in 2004. Actually, he carried 5 times for 3yrds (3 one-yard td runs). One of the craziest stat lines ever. Reed kicked a fg as time expired to win it. I wonder if Reed has been employed by the NFL to give a 'cautionary tale' speech entitled "A Bird in the Hand is worth Two in the Bush" about taking the money and running when it's on the table.

    I was in the stands the following week at Baltimore when Maddox got hurt and the Big Ben era was ushered in. Ben was horrible in that game but won the next fourteen straight to finish out the season.

    Little known fact/rumor: When Maddox went down and Ben played horribly, Cowher put in a call to Neil O to try to coax him out of retirement. Can you imagine?
