    The line can be easily fixed to where it is serviceable. Move Chuks to LT, Dotson LG, free agent C, Decastro RG, Banner RT. Spend a #1 or #2 on an OT, and a lower pick on depth.

    Dale Lolley said on Steelers nation radio this afternoon that he was speculating.

    We get sports writers opinions on things all the time. Be mad at the part timer who started this thread.

    Honestly I think he was reading the same tea leaves we all are. And since NFL Films released audio of Ben and Pouncey's conversation, I'd assume that one or both are indeed retiring.

    Ben wasted a lot of his prime on his own by being a turnover machine.

    It is ridicules. I somehow started getting some Steeler type feeds on FB (used rarely for family) and the only reason I continue is to read the comments. I think some Steeler fans are very informed (usually here anyway). Some of the comments on that feed just make me laugh. The most recent was that we were the top landing spot for Watson. A vast amount of the comments were yes, and we could sign him to a decent contract, even though the article said he had just signed a 154 million contract. I understand not everyone is involved in depth with the teams everyday dealings, but no you cannot trade a FA for Watson, lmao.

    Yeah, but no need to play Rudolph in the Cincinnati game.

    PFF has had Pouncy ranked the worst offensive lineman in the entire NFL.

    But he was voted to the Pro Bowl! For what that is worth, lmao. Even back in the day it was just a lot of fun, but meant something to the players. The Bus used to take Tim Lester and his family there as a TY for Tim busting his ass every year to get Bus those extra yards.

    PFF has always had Pouncey ranked at the bottom yet he has:

    9 Pro Bowls
    3x First-team All Pro
    2x Second-team All Pro
    All Rookie Team
    All Decade Team

    He just doesn’t grade out well in PFF’s quirky grading system.

    That system is weird. Also, Pouncey has been really bad for a few seasons now.

    Man, some of the replies to in this thread, wow. You really call yourselves Steelers fans? Straight garbage. You people should be ashamed of yourself.

    Pouncey played his heart out his whole career and his body is breaking down. It happens to all. Congrats on an amazing career and let him go out with some dignity. So many of you are pathetic slaps. You aren't Steelers fans, you're asshats.
